Did You Want to Meet the New Members of BiS?

There was a time, maybe about six or so months ago, when I would’ve considered new members of BiS to be an almost sacred development — you, young lady/ies, is/are stepping into a legendary space, and you need to respect it and work hard and live up to a legacy blah blah blah.

Finally having had a chance to witness the workings of WACK in the post-Yokohama era, I feel pretty confident in saying that, past importance and contributions aside, BiS may be a little wackier (/dying) than other idol groups, but that aura is reduced to maybe a light magenta now instead of the fiery blazing red that I always associated with them.

Anyway, the way that membership is handled is a big part of that, as for instance these two newbies were kind of randomly tacked on for reasons unknown to me after the auditions and exhibition last week plus change, and now they’re official enough to be on Twitter:

I’m a little upset that they weren’t introduced with the usual washed-out-black-eyes thing

They’ll debut at the May 30 live. They’ll presumably be given some kind of role in the group that’s more than just, I don’t know, being randomly tacked on. And maybe one of them (money’s not on Fetus-chan) will turn out to be a solid replacement for Aya after she’s imprisoned for trying to stab Watanabe with a fork.

There’s a Natalie.mu article that doesn’t say much more, but does have a nice photo of the two of them.

  1. “I’m a little upset that they weren’t introduced with the usual washed-out-black-eyes thing”

    That was a BiSH thing.

  2. BiS? Oh, you mean Kamiya Saki’s group? It’ll be neat to see how these new members fit in with Saki, Gozeela, Kika, Ubu, and the rest.
