ANGERME’s full-group outings have plummeted — 5ch: “Takeuchi’s departure seems to be a big deal”

From our other sites

The story

A thread about Hello! Project idol group ANGERME lit up over the observation that “the members don’t all go out together anymore.” The group was once known for outings where the whole lineup would head to the beach, USJ, or Disney together, but with the graduations of core members like Takeuchi, Kamikoku (Kamiko), and Kawamura (Kawamu), some suggested there’s no one left to organize such plans. Thread posters were split on whether the group’s current senior members — Ise, Hashisako, Kawana, and Tamenaga — could fill that role.

They used to all go to the beach and USJ (jokingly called "UFJ" by fans) together
3AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:19
Back then they had that outgoing, extroverted energy — looked like they were having fun
5AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:19
Hirayama looks like she wouldn't even want to go
7AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:21
Re: #5
She'll go if the leader invites her — Pei's a huge fan of Harerapi
6AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:20
Because Takeuchi's not around anymore

Re: #6
Even back in Kamiko's era they'd talk about wanting to do this or that together, but they probably never actually pulled off a full-group outing — so Takeuchi being gone does seem like a big deal.

If anything, Takeuchi hangs out with the OGs (graduated members) all the time.

That "ANGERME Club" vibe is gone now, isn't it (アンジュル部 = the group's old variety segment)
9AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:23
That's because the ones who couldn't handle the peer pressure kept quitting one after another
12AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:26
Re: #9
Are you dumb?
If the ones who couldn't handle peer pressure already quit,
then everyone left now is someone who caves to peer pressure — so of course they'd all go together.
11AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:26
That's because Kawamu, who had everyone's schedules down, left
13AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:27
Hashisako, who went to see the Madoka Magica movie alone
15AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:32
Re: #13
Kero doesn't seem interested in that kind of thing anyway
14AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:30
All the members go out together → but skip stuff like vocal training
18AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:35
Re: #15
But they'll still go crash at Kero's place

Re: #18
Maybe they click on everything except anime

Re: #1
Back then…? That was only the one time though…
22AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:40
Re: #19
There were at least two trips just counting the beach and USJ (UFJ)!
28AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:44
The last time they all went to Disney together was probably back when Takeuchi was still around. I forget if Pei was there or not, but it was around that time.
31AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:45
Re: #28
Was Sasaki there?
29AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:44
These days it seems like OCHA NORMA would be the ones to all get together
30AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:44
Re: #29
Heh heh… snicker snicker
33AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:46
Their bad blood is starting to show even to outsiders now — this might really be the endgame
36AnonymousSep 5, 2026 15:48
This must've been the last time

Were they all on good terms up until Kamikoku graduated?
48AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:03
It's not really Kamiko's fault — she just kept a bit of distance from that whole "let's party" vibe
78AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:21
Re: #48
She was a central figure though
52AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:05
Would you even want to invite Hashisako or Kawana out?
58AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:07
Re: #52
Honestly I'd rather be surrounded by those two
55AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:06
Kawamura used to be the one handling ticket arrangements, and there's no one to take over that role now
60AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:07
Re: #55
Ah, that'd be it
56AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:06
Stuff like this all comes down to how much pull the person organizing it has — the current senior members of ANGERME just don't have anyone who can do that
59AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:07
Ise could've invited Kawana out one-on-one though — didn't get the impression they were on bad terms
61AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:08
Re: #59
That's just work though
80AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:22


81AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:25
Ise and the others go all the way back to when they were just singing and dancing together with no titles attached — so why does it feel like there's this distance now?
It honestly seems like Ise wants to get close, but everyone else is putting up a wall.
I don't think Ise's forgotten Kamiko's parting words though.
82AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:27
Re: #81
I think that's because before becoming leader, Ise didn't really interact much with the younger members. There aren't many stories of Ise joining practice with each of them back when they were rookies.
84AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:30
Which member would text Ise on a day off saying "Meet at Fuji-Q at 9am!"?
86AnonymousSep 5, 2026 16:33
Re: #84
Probably Shionnu. And maybe Yuppyon would come along too.

Background and Key Points of This Topic

ANGERME is a Hello! Project girl group, and graduated members like Takeuchi, Kamikoku, and Kawamura have a history of frequently sharing posts about inviting members out on private outings. It’s worth noting that whether or not the group still goes on “full-group outings” is only knowable to fans through what gets shared on social media or in magazines — anything happening off the record simply can’t be confirmed. While several posters pointed out that it was the graduated members who used to organize these plans, there’s little solid basis for declaring the current members’ relationships good or bad, and the discussion mostly centered on speculation tied to scheduling skills and theories about leadership.

※This article is compiled and summarized from the 5channel (Hello! Project) thread “Hasn’t ANGERME stopped going out together as a full group…”.
