Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hi! I'm a new member of this guild and I want to post my first post here^^! First because W is my favorite band, and second for just add something for people who (like me ;_ wink are worried about it. One journal or magasine, I don't really know, had sort one page that said that her suspension may be not more than a month. So I'm happy^^. And well, I can post you photos if you want^^. But the magasine caught her with some friends, all in age of smoking, and she's wearing sunglasses. If they're not paparazzi, I don't think they could notice that she's smoking. Peharps, I do agree that she's an idol and have to show the example, but she's also a human, and no one is perfect, so she can make mistakes, I think. So I'm happy that her suspension is not long^^.

I know it's not the best post to makes friend, but I wanted to give my advice, sorry ^0^''. sweatdrop And my english is really poor, sorry. I try to make it better every day T crying T.

And for my advice for W , well, that's the bestest group, I think. Tsuji is my favorite one, she's so cute, but Kago is also very sweet and cute^^!

I'm going to guess the after the "SF" they are going to let her back on the team again. Rehab maybe??? Who knows, From I can tell, Hello Pro is losing money because she not there. Yes they did lost millions'ss of "yen" because they cancel of lot promostions and concerts and stuff, But also they not getting anything out of it because Kago is out for a while. She more usful as a singers then being punish. Also I think If "W" makes a come back, they will have a more adult Images. This could be a + or - if looks at this situation.

I think it's more serious than Mari's scandal as well, but I don't know that Mari would have been kicked out if she had not left on her own.

The press release on her issue, as I recall, said that SHE chose to leave.

I mean, really? She probably *wanted* out. sweatdrop She was there a LONG time, you know? And she kept getting passed over for graduation SO much.

A friend of mine and I had a theory that it might have been somewhat planned. After all, the announcement of Mari's leaving came... I think, two days after Yossi's 20th birthday. 20 years old is when you're considered an adult in Japan, and Yossi was next in line to be leader. So the timing is a bit suspicious, at least to me.

It's a good theory that Mari left on her own will and in a way, I do believe that she did voluntarily leave. However, I must also take into consideration that she had gotten a possition of importance which is leader. It doesn't mean much but it's second to being leader of H!P. I don't think that it was set up for Hitomi to get leadership. Mari could have just gone up to Tsunku and said that she wanted to graduate but she probably had a contract which meant she couldn't leave. If she did all of that to break a contract then I must say it's dissapointing. I also look and see how much she loved the group and how something like this could completely destroy a career. It didn't but it's not going as great as she thought it was. I mean, I would expect to see her doing tons of things and the only thing she has done are MCs for concerts and tv shows. So I think it was even. I wonder why Aya Matsuura never got in trouble for dating that ugly guy from w-inds.

If Kago wanted to look older then she did the wrong thing. I personally think that W was getting more mature. I mean, when you look at Mini Moni towards the end, they got a more mature image too. I think with H!P if you are not a soloist or if you are not in a group where everyone is 20+, then you just have to wait until you get the chance. Next think you know, the Berryz are going to get caught with drugs. One thing that I find odd and it's something that I talked about with Altoplayer, is that it seems like someone is out to destroy H!P. I mean, these scandals are occuring way to often and they are always when there are major releases. Someone has something against H!P and right now, I am just waiting for the next thing to happen.

Aw, I love W~ Aibon's rumored to come back soon right :/?

Nono had been looking a bit lonely and somewhat outta place since Aibon was put on suspension. For Nono's sake I hope Aibon is allowed to come back.

I don't know where I'd look to confirm this, but...

On a side note that's slightly related to the topic of scandals, Morning Musume member Takahashi Ai let it slip in a recent radio show that "Aibon (W's Kago Ai) is coming back."

(Totally SFW, I swear. It's just a Jpop blog.)

Though, that was October.... I dunno. I would love to see W get going again. I miss them. sad

First time posting in this guild, though apparently, I've been a member for quite a while (don't really remember joining... haha ^^)

I miss W so much~! Possibly one of my favorite groups in H!P... I was so sad that Aibon and Nono left Morning Musume, but was completely enthralled that they formed W.... They are really good together, and their singing is really amazing at times... I'm quite fond of their version of Shiroi Koibito no Iro... so pretty...

I'm waiting for the moment they announce Aibon is back in H!P... I saw an article of Aibon with her mom, and the article said something like they were looking forward to a "prettier and slimmer Aibon"... something like that. I suppose she's lost a bit of weight... well, she was so cute before, but yeah, when she comes back, seems like W might be a bit more mature... ^__^;; I'm not sure yet if that's a good thing or not ^^

Lalala~
