Tenjin Musume and RE:mee

Things have changed a lot in the past few months in the Tenjin Musume camp and it’s about time I told you about the changes.  Tenjin Musume debuted with eleven members, and even though there was one graduation followed by a new member joining they still rarely performed with all eleven girls.  I suppose schedules clashed or perhaps other reasons kept this from happening.  Well, more graduations have happened and a new group with two former members has debuted.  

Reise and Sakuraba Mei graduated from Tenjin Musume on March 22, 2026, and simultaneously debuted as RE:mee on the same day.  RE:mee sing old Japanese pop songs.  Here’s a fan video of their first live.  

Neneha and Futaba Hinano and Nanami all graduated on April 11.  Neneha is no longer an idol, but the Futaba sisters are dancers for another company.  Here’s a fan video of “Sekachu” (“Second Kiss”) from their last live with the group.  This is the song that I wanted to include a video for last year’s Japanese Idol Year In Review but couldn’t find a decent quality version.  This isn’t perfect quality, but it’ll have to do.  Love those keyboards! 

Tenjin Musume are now performing as a six-member group, but unfortunately, Luna has announced that she will graduate on August 30.

Some Really RAD Idols

I thought that my 2025 Japanese Idol Year In Review was perfect the way it was published, but then later I discovered a few mistakes and omissions.  I wanted to include the two videos from Aoyama Nananko and Amakawa Mio that were also in my October 2025 article about Harajuku Gakuen.  I also neglected to add a video that I wasn’t sure I liked the first time I watched it but later decided I did.  And since I published the Year In Review on December 9, more videos were uploaded to YouTube in December that I might have included as well.  Well, I’m going to write about a group that I should have included some info about back in December. 

RAD SUPERIORS is a five-member idol group based in Totsuka Ward in Yokohama created by Harmonize Company in 2022.  They were apparently a group derivative of lil’ superiors, who I never paid attention to before they disbanded.  RAD SUPERIORS have released four singles plus two singles in collaboration with Sakura Bloom Superiors, which now go by the collected name of P☆ STAR CHILD (POP STAR CHILD).  Two members of RAD SUPERIORS, SARA and COCO, are sisters. 

My favorite song from RAD SUPERIORS is “RAD”, from December 2024.  Here’s the video. 

The first collaboration single from RAD SUPERIORS and Sakura Bloom Superiors was “Pistachio Alien”, from July 2025, which was followed by the ‘sequel’ song, “Pistachio Heels”, from December 2025.  Apparently a third ‘Pistachio’ song will follow sometime in 2026.  Here are the two videos released so far. 

I think these girls are pretty fun, much like the other Harmonize groups.  I hope you will like them too.  

Once again, thank you for reading my blog.
