It's better if they changed all the names, but ok. I like that Karen is using her real name. Fujii shimai has been promoted alongside each other a lot, it's easier to tell that they're related now. With Mayu, it's like a new start for her. Now if I can just find that old Happy Talk show where they talked about why their parents gave them that name.

Sayaka is so cute, Yuuchan looks more and more like her fav senpai, Rumi AKB thread moves so fast that things like this gets buried very quick Can I start an SKE thread? /SKE wota

Taiyou no Himawari EDIT: What the heck is wrong with me, it's Taiyou to Himawari SUN and SUNFLOWER.

Yea, I was talking to Danseryu about Erie the other day and he said the same thing. It's written on her Japanese wiki page but we can't access the original source (a Q&A on mixi?). I re-watched their ameba studio vid, and I had to screen-cap this. It's a photo of Dream's Halloween party. Aya was Freeza and Ami was a samurai. They said that Erie is a zombie every year and Shizuka was...little red riding hood lol.

I'm already watching this halfway, this is some pretty crazy shit I hope the ending is decent. Oh, I've seen "Gelatin Silver, Love". She had a very minor role there, basically a nameless character. Too bad I'm not into artsy films so I only watched about the first 15 mins and Erina's part Hello and welcome!

Couldn't watch it. I think almost all Happiness, Dream and Flower members were there.

It seems that both Ruri and Anna has posted on the official ameblo. Just introducing themselves, stating that they will do their best so fans will accept them. Anna's post is more relaxed, Ruri's post used very polite language. Also, Anna will be on a daytime drama "Asu no Hikari wo Tsukame-2013 natsu-" as a first year highschool student who is good at dancing, called Ota Ao. I think she's actually the main protagonist. It will start airing on July 1st. link to website Is she the first Happiness member to act? I wanna watch but it's a daytime drama, and it's on Tokai TV.

E-girls will be on Friday's Waratte iitomo Telephone shocking segment

Yep, Happiness 2nd season, that's what they call it their website. They don't have their own variety show, sadly. They have a weekly radio show (Thursdays) which I would listen to, if someone records it. That's how I get the extra info. Oh yeah, more Kaede info. They call Kaede an ossan (old man). It started when they had a meal with EXILE's HIRO, and when he saw Kaede eat edamame and dried stingray fins, he said "Highschool kids don't eat those, old men do". Then he started calling her Kaede Ossan.

About Sudanna being half Filipina, it was Shuuka who said it on a radio show from last year. Reina said there's another girl, but couldn't finish her sentence. I think she was referring to the ex-bunny member who was half-Indian. I was contemplating whether to put a note on the video, but I didn't because I it would look cluttered. I put it on the video description. Himono-onna are women in their 20's/30's who has given up on love. Reply to e-mails late and short. Doesn't wear make-up on their day off. Oh yeah, I'm sure you've all seen this, but I just love it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVPaRWmYjYs If you're not into Japanese comedy, Henna ojisan is a popular gag by Japanese comedian Shimura Ken. It's done wearing that costume, a weird dance and ends by saying "dafunda". Here it's just a wordplay on EXILE's Rising Sun, so it becomes Henna Oji SUN. I hope they get to do collab with Okamura again. Because Okamura is awesome and they get to go on Mechaike.

Hi, Troy, welcome to the thread and the fandom. You're just in time for Happiness 2nd season. Sorry about the full PV links on the OP, it seems that Jpopsuki tv is being attacked so they're currently down. Happiness doesn't have an official leader, but Kaede is the one who sort of rounds them up. Kinda funny because she's probably the worst when it comes to waking up in the morning lol Sayaka is said to be the best dancer, even EXILE members think so, which is why she's the dance leader. Kaede's a big fan of Western music and K-pop like SNSD and Shinee.

Oh yeah, I thought I saw your name too, but I just said hi to Jpr. The livestream was fun. The social stream was filled with Momochi fans though Here's a little summary of it. - They talked about the PV and the single. - They talked about how close they are. They hang out together even on their days off. - Aya showed the contents of her Samantha Thavasa handbag. She brings a camera with her and she said that the header photo on their ameblo was taken by her. She also took photos for the photocard for the single, and designed the T-shirts as well. - They talked about their ideal type. There's more actually, but I can't think of it now. All in all, they were all so cute and I must watch it again

Added Anna and Ruri's profile photo that I nicked from the E-girls website in the OP. It's temporary, until Happiness official website gets updated with new photos.

Watched it. I thought it was sweet when the girls talked about what Dream meant to them. Aya: A group of four people who just wouldn't give up. Every day when we're together, we talk about funny ridiculous things and laugh until our sides hurt. I don't think I want to be separated from them. Erie: I've never regretted it once. Of course, we've had rough times as well. But I think meeting them is probably the best thing that has happen in my life. Shizuka: I can't imagine being without Dream. Dream is everything to me. Ami: Dream is the reason I'm here. Dream is the reason why I can do my best. It's the place where I belong. :sad:

Ah, so Ami is E-girls centre. I can't wait to see her appearance on Monsieur, it's the 10th episode though so it's quite a long way to go. I wonder what her role will be.

Hmm, I think it is her. And there's this blogger talking about a Kawamoto Ruri from an event in 2010. So yeah, I guess she used to be an indie artist. http://ameblo.jp/kyoshiro-sewanyobou/entry-10637018593.html

Haha yeah, they called her a female leopard and exotic animal or something lol. Thanks for the update. Ruri has strong vocals based on what I can hear in Loving Bell, I feel like she might get to sing the verses with Mayu, and Karen gets whatever is left. Probably. And...Kaede's post in the spoilers. I think I got it mostly right.

Heart Jack is such a short segment Oh well, Aya is a Kansai person through and through. But Shizuka-sama

I saw someone talking about this on 2ch a while ago, and I thought, well that's possible. Which was why I asked about Kawamoto in the E-girls thread. As a relatively new fan of Happiness, I don't know how this will affect the dynamics of the group. I think Suda Anna will be a good addition to replace Mimu. Kawamoto however, is a much more sexy type of girl. I've never seen her perform and she's also very shy. But hey, if she's talented, then why not? We'll see how it pans out. I hope, really really hope, Mayu's still in.

Ah Sudanna. Funny how Kaede usually gets mistaken as mixed, when it's Sudanna who is mixed.

Well, the girls have been writing about a certain important filming or photo-shoot they had today, but they can't reveal what it is yet. Hmm...
