The story
The official X account for the Hello! Project variety show “Sandwichman’s World Shock Video Company” posted an SNS-exclusive video of Juice=Juice’s Ebata Hisaki taking on the “marching in place challenge.” The clip sparked a wave of reactions on 5ch’s Hello! Project board, with many praising her as “the perfect idol” and saying she’s “way too good at variety shows” — though some pushed back, asking why Ebata got the spot over other members.

Background and Talking Points
“Sandwichman’s World Shock Video Company,” the show at the center of this story, is built around releasing SNS-exclusive clips alongside its regular broadcast, and as happened here, cuts that never made it to air sometimes surface on X instead. Ebata Hisaki is a new Juice=Juice member who has drawn attention for her expressive faces and lively movement on variety shows. While many thread comments praised her casting this time, others voiced frustration that the same members keep getting picked. This is a recurring debate for Hello! Project and other large idol groups whenever TV appearances seem unevenly distributed among members — though the posts alone don’t reveal the agency’s intentions or the show’s editorial reasoning.
