After Juice=Juice appeared on CDTV, only two members — Dambara and Ebata — mentioned it on their blogs, sparking discussion on 5ch’s Hello! Project board. The thread’s main focus was that while every member used to excitedly report every appearance, it seems to have become old hat now that the group’s TV exposure has increased.
They’re proper stars now, huh
Is CDTV basically a semi-regular gig for them at this point?

Not even worth reporting anymore —
for Juice, it's about as routine
as an afternoon coffee break now.

This much change in just half a year?
Back in April last year they'd have been thrilled to blog about it.

There's so many appearances now it must be hard even to keep track of what's cleared for announcement.
Probably there's just too much stuff they're not allowed to say yet, so it's hard to write about it.
There's likely more lined up after this too.

Isn't that just their post-appearance thoughts?

Back then they'd get thrilled over even some nobody show with 1% ratings.
Now even when an appearance gets confirmed, nobody seems to write about it.

Making a whole thread over something this trivial — the antis really have too much free time.
Getting a bit full of themselves, huh ("tengu" = slang for someone who's grown conceited/big-headed).

The anti's Japanese is a total mess lol

This is just piling shame on top of shame.

The CDTV mention reeled the trolls right in lol
Even the announcement posts aren't getting as much traction as before — feels like the fans have gotten used to it.
What's going to happen next year to the least famous one, TV Tokyo's Music Festival?
Honestly, I don't even keep up with Juice news anymore.
Going to their tour is about the only chance I get to see them.
That's what they've always been to me, then and now.

Ugh, that "tengu geezer" made another thread lmaooo (a regular poster known for accusing idols of getting full of themselves).
You can tell they must be busy.
Take care of yourselves~

Looking back at their March-April blogs, everyone reacted to Music Station, and everyone reacted to CDTV too.
Back then they were probably genuinely thinking "whoa, my life might actually be changing" and running on pure adrenaline.

An acquaintance I hadn't talked to in a while asked me what Juice is like these days,
but I haven't watched anything since the Pia Arena show, so I couldn't explain what's going on with them.

This is fine, honestly.
This is just how it goes eventually.
Though if they were still going all-out reacting to Music Station while ignoring CDTV, that'd be rude to CDTV.

They've probably realized CDTV doesn't move the needle much,
which is likely why the Juice=Juice members are reacting this way now.

Back when they couldn't get booked on anything,
they thought getting on one show would change everything.
Turns out it wasn't quite like that.

Terrestrial TV music shows really do matter after all.
They're playing the festival too, so it'll probably stay a tight relationship for a while.
Dambara seems to be a favorite at TBS. Besides CDTV, the shows she's appeared on solo — "Hamata Kayousai," "Anata ni Okuru Love Song," and "Sound Inn S" — are all TBS programs too.
A year-end TBS Record Award's Excellent Music Award might even be in play.

They're so busy I do worry a bit whether the autumn tour will hold up okay.
Though just getting to see them at all is something to be grateful for.

Back when they had free time they were doing crazy stuff like back-to-back matinee and evening shows with completely different setlists.
For today's Juice, just running a normal concert should be a breeze.

Honestly, Kawashima's and Ishiyama's blogs are always just a lazy line or two anyway.

It's fine because the photos are cute.
