Were we ever given a reason as to why Tsubaki Factory didn't get an MV for their debut album? I feel like the albums before and every album since has gotten one.

I don't recall any MVs for any of the albums from the past couple of years. There was one for I surrender Ai Saredo Ai for the Momusu best album, but that one was kind of a throwaway

I thought JJ last one had one, but I guess I was wrong, but JJ, KF, and now Beyooooonds got one for their debut albums so I was wondering if it was ever talked about why TF didn't get this

Edit

On another note, I just watched the ANGERME MV and I am not feeling this single at all. For the past couple of singles, I've been thinking that they (and recently Beyooooonds) have been getting the type of songs that MM should be doing, but this whole single seems like one that MM would actually do and everyone would get further disenfranchised with UF for yet another nothing of a single. I like the second video, but I feel like they really dropped the ball with their song choices considering they just lost two members since the last single and are losing another soon.

That's disappointing to hear. Zenzen Okiagarenai SUNDAY in particular has been incredibly well received by the fandom from what I've seen

for anyone looking to watch the Momusu concert

If I didn't know this group and the sub-titles weren't there, then I wouldn't have believed that this was an H!P release. The song, the MV and the dance shot are all just incredible. I'm really loving that TF has been able to carve out their own identity as a group in H!P and I hope they continue with it.

Hello

Any news from former member Tanaka Reina?

Hey!

There's not much activity at the moment, she was in the stage play called Nobunaga no Yabou back in November, and she held a birthday fanclub event in December However, she is having a live event on February 28 and 29th days.

Hey!

I'd say try Dailymotion YouTube tends to delete many videos due to the copyrights so many of them have disappeared over the years.

I suggest using: Morning Musume ENG sub or  モーニング娘。 ENG for search engine. For example,  https://www.dailymotion.com/search/Morning Musume ENG

There's also another option using Aidoru Online and download the torrents to watch the things.

A few of the members wanted to leave the idol world so they decided as a group to disband instead of continue. Only Reirei stayed with H!P and is now in Juice=Juice.
