The story
Juice=Juice’s official YouTube channel has released two collaboration videos with singer-songwriter Kohmi Hirose. The videos cover the behind-the-scenes story of the song “Kurakura☆Climax” and feature Hirose answering questions from the members, with an appearance at “Kohmi EXPO 2026” on September 3rd also announced. On 5ch’s Hello! Project board, some welcomed the news with comments like “This is straight-up A-list showbiz now,” while others called for a proper music video given how elaborate the collab is, and the thread also buzzed with speculation over which member should get Hirose’s next signature winter song.

Background and Key Points of This Discussion
Kohmi Hirose is a songwriter known for winter-themed hits like “Romance no Kamisama” and “Fuyu no Inazuma,” and the thread’s calls for her to “write us a winter song” clearly stem from this track record. Opinions split between praise for the talk-session collaboration itself and frustration with a production setup that hasn’t stretched to making a proper music video. Some were irritated that such an elaborate special project could be arranged while no official music video has materialized, while others simply welcomed the YouTube collaboration, calling it a sign of “making it into the A-list entertainment world.” It’s also worth noting that this kind of Hello! Project-related content is usually produced under the “Haro Lab” banner on the official channel, so the fact that this one ran on Kohmi Hirose’s own channel — since she’s the one who provided the song — was itself part of why it drew attention. The nicknames “Ocha” and “Ocha-noma” used in the thread refer to specific members, but who exactly they refer to can’t be pinned down from the thread context alone.
