I CAN'T BELIEVE WE GOT INTO THE NEW GROUPS LMAOOOO but I'm happy we have a group in common!! My favourite is Koji because I am still whipped for Kansai, apparently. But I adoooore Meme and ship him with SO MANY PEOPLE. Also there is some new FIC btw, how ready are you to dive into that chaos because I AM HERE 2 ENABLE. Tell me all about your Meme feels!! And Snow Man feels!! Have you watched Takizawa Kabuki Zero 👀

<33333333 EEEE!!!!

LOL IKR!!! I honestly never expected to get into any new group bc i get super invested in them but well here I am still hahahaha I’m super happy to have this in common with you toooo ♥

Aawww Koji!!! I love him and his random gags lol I haven’t read any fic of them yet!! I have tried reading a MemeMichi fic but it was a suuuuper slow burn so basically nothing’s happened yet lmao. But YES i am open to the idea 👀 I enjoy Meme’s dynamics with everyone so I guess I’m open to shipping him with everyone…? Hahaha Also MemeKoji is super cute. I need to get that out

I haven’t watched Takizawa Kabuki! Should I? I only watched the Ride on Time portion about it and that gave me a lot of emotions 🥲

I ended up getting into three new groups... and am broadly staying abreast of all the other ones... save me........

He's a baby and I get very emo about his journey from Kansai jr to debuting in Tokyo but he's doing very well for himself now 🥰 OHO DO YOU LIKE MEMEMICCHI (because I do lol).! A friend of mine joked that Meme was Assigned Boyfriend at Birth and honestly, it's so real lmao There was a Snow Man fic exchange here recently if you want to click around~

Omg yes do it! There's a stageplay version that's good but there's an accessible, eng subbed movie version on Netflix! Which is slightly weirder (oh Takki lol) but HIGHLY enjoyable. They inherited the play from Takki and that's such a huge deal but they do it justice 🤧 I love these boys

[quartered]

That is an achievement honestly!! What other groups are you into rn? Ganbareeee

Koji’s junior days was briefly touched on in Ride on Time and it was enough to get me interested in him. He’s so versatile and always full of energy. Wait, you like MemeMicchi too?!?)? Yaaaay considering I got into all this bc of Kiekoi I love them together. Why are they so flirty and cute in their interviews 🥲 LOL Meme being Assigned Boyfriend At Birth is something I can agree on ahaha Thank you for the link! I shall check this out 😍

I’ll check it out in Netflix!! Hopefully it’s available in my country. I am all for weird but enjoyable ahahahah (also I love the development for all these groups we used to be in? I mean Tacchon’s a producer now. And Jun’s directing concerts. And Takki’s head of the juniors. So happy for them 🥺)

Naniwa Danshi, Ae Group and Snow Man take up most of my time, but I usually like to stay abreast of what's happening elsewhere too lolol and usually end up watching most things the Kansai groups are doing

I LOVE MEMEMICCHI!!! They were my first new gen ship <3 I wrote some fic for them too! And yeah, Ride on Time got me really intrigued in Koji, because you can see his journey through Kansai and then into Snow Man and it was so much ;_; I dived into reading up on him and ahhhh I love him T_T he's been through a lot. Enjoy!! The new JE hols just closed sign ups, but my friends and I nominated a lot of new gen groups for a fic exchange called Yuletide, which is coming up~~

omg TELL ME ABOUT IT, it makes me so emotional T__T Did you see Yoko co-runs Kanjuu with Tacchon now? This is my favourite song by Yoko's group, god they're so good (and also unhinged, as all Kansai groups are 😂). Someone called them K8's successors and man, they really are

[quartered]

I have heard of Ae group as well! They're always appearing in my twitter recommended tweets ahahaha. I do have a soft spot for Micchi though so there is also that possibility that I can get into Naniwa Danshi ahaha...hahaa...ha

AWWWW WHERE IS THIS FIC THAT YOU SPEAK OF ♥ Does Koji get featured in the other Ride On Time episodes? I have only watched the ones with Takizawa Kabuki and the Snowman episodes in Season 3. Aww well I'm glad he's debuted now. He always makes me laugh when I watch their videos :) It makes me so happy that JE hols are still a thing! When I was joining all the new comms there were a lot of things that were different from when I was actively using LJ, but I'm glad JE hols is still here

Is KanJuu = Kansai Juniors?? asdljkbsaad If so, then I didn't know Yoko is co-running it now. Also aside from that being a banger song (the main vocalist omg), the production levels on their new songs is super good!! I love that they're leveling up now.
