The story
To commemorate the release of Morning Musume ’26’s 77th single “Lonely…But not Alone/Yes ka No ka Watashi ka,” a YouTube “Rimosta” online signing event kicked off at 6:00 PM on September 17. The lineup opened with the pair Okamura Homare and Suzuki Moa, followed by Yamazaki Airi and Ishikawa Karin, then Sakurai Rio and Inoue Haruka — three pairs, six members total, each appearing in their own time slot. Thread discussion centered on comparisons of concurrent viewer counts with other groups, plus reactions to newcomer Suzuki Moa — who only joined this year — reading her message somewhat nervously, drawing a mix of warm and harsh comments.

Background and Key Points of This Topic
“Rimosta” is the name of the official online signing events run by Hello! Project, generally known for granting participation via a lottery or first-come-first-served system open to those who buy the CD. This time, to mark the 77th single’s release, three pairs of six members appeared in staggered slots from 6 PM to 9 PM. What stood out in the thread was the comparison of concurrent viewer counts with other groups — some posts cited Juice=Juice’s numbers, but this kind of comparison is a recurring staple in Hello! Project threads, and since the figures swing by day, time slot, and lineup, drawing firm conclusions about group popularity from a single number is premature. The other recurring thread was reaction to newly-joined member Suzuki Moa’s freshness, with comments split between those warmly embracing her nervous, halting delivery and those judging it harshly. Because idols early in their careers are often called out for inexperience, the line between supportively watching them grow and simply mocking them tends to blur — a nuance that may not come through clearly to readers outside the fandom.
