This was when it was like Tsunku was high. It’s not possible to come up with stuff like this as a middle-aged man unless you’re fucked up on something.

I was an elementary schooler myself at the time so I liked it for how cute it was.
If it was released today, I bet I’d be put off by it.

It’s a problem how to this day there hasn’t been a shuffle unit that could beat DEF. DIVA.

This was the time that Terada refers to as the era when he could do anything and people would like it. It can be dangerous when everyone is willing to go with you wherever you want to take them, so all things considered, he was able to stay relatively levelheaded despite knowing it was that sort of a situation.

Yasuda, Ayaka, and Inaba did this song on their bus tour and it was so much fun.

Woman here. I’d just found the first boyfriend of my life around the time this song came out. Moreover, I was supposed to go to the beach for the first time in my life with him, so I’d be constantly listening to the song while identifying with the lyrics. Even on the day itself, I was listening to it in the car as we were driving to the beach.
Those were good times…

I was young back then so to me it just felt like they were being reckless. But thinking back now, this was an amazing song that actually shaped H!P.

I was a junior high schooler at the time. I thought they were cute and I’d be dancing to it, mimicking them. Kago-chan had just said in some interview how she wanted to dye her hair pink so I remember thinking, “good for you!“

The greatest shuffle unit song of all time:
58: 名無し募集中。。。 2019/03/20(水) 00:09:19.80 0.net
They did those shuffle units for like four years, but never again did they have a unit that was greater than 3nin Matsuri.
62: 名無し募集中。。。 2019/03/20(水) 00:15:27.92 0.net
From the get-go, their intentions with creating 3nin Matsuri was obviously to try and push Matsuura. They just randomly picked some members for 7nin and 10nin Matsuri while 3nin was them just lining up all their future aces.

Out of all the shuffle units, even now my no. 1 favorite is still 11WATER.
They really made use of their many members.

They put out something like this and they still completely dominated the charts. And this was back when the Oricon charts actually meant something, too. Amazing.

The theory is that the shuffle units with the least members would always be the most successful.

I was in the third grade of high school at the time and I was crazy about them. I was an especially big fan of Ishikawa, and I was more into Kago-chan than Tsuji-chan. (I didn’t have much of an opinion of Ayaya at the time.) I recorded the first performance of the song on Music Station and watched it over and over again. I’d be listening to this song while being immersed in Mario Kart: Super Circuit. That was my summer vacation.

Back then, I was listening to this while laughing ironically. But deep down, I kinda liked it. Even without the pink wigs it’s just an embarrassing song… but I just love it.

It felt like this era of H!P truly was the best.

I love the S/mileage cover
When H!P as a whole was at its peak and Tsunku had a lot more creative control musically.
“I still remember how Ishibashi got all excited about them on Utaban and started dancing together with them.”
TV was a lot different back then. If Ishibashi pulled the same stunt with teenaged idols today there’d be a call to have him fired and off television lol.
Peak Tsunku/H!P wackiness between this song and “The Peace!” The days that I’d buy every damn shuffle single on principle…
“Back then, I was listening to this while laughing ironically. But deep down, I kinda liked it. Even without the pink wigs it’s just an embarrassing song… but I just love it.”
This is how I feel about H!P in general. A little embarrassing sometimes… but always super fun.
Not only the greatest era for H!P as a whole, but one of the greatest for JPop in general.
