The story
Hello! Project’s Rosy Chronicle has announced that their 4th single, “Cuz It’s Great Misfortune⭐︎ / Even If You’re Scolded I Won’t Cry, Even If You’re Loved I Won’t Cry,” will be released on November 4. In the 5ch live-discussion thread, reactions first zeroed in on the shock value of the word “great misfortune” (daikyo — the worst possible result in Japanese fortune-slip, or omikuji, readings) used in the title, with some commenters bewildered, writing “Would they seriously put a word like ‘great misfortune’ in a song title, even nominally?” Others took it in stride with self-deprecating humor, saying “Well, they’re the ‘great misfortune’ group anyway, so that fits — at least they’re self-aware.” The discussion ranged widely, from the group holding release events mid-tour to sales worries that fans might be drifting toward Morning Musume’s new members instead.

What people said
would they really put in a word like 'great misfortune'?
Is this a song about picking out an apartment?
at least they're self-aware
Either Saturday or Sunday is always free
Fans were expecting release events from the start
Nah, I'm not going
Do whatever you want
Add the amazing Beyooooonds version too
hope they can hold the line at 50,000 copies
Because it's not full of hope, all I see is darkness
2025 Summer: 2nd
2026 Winter: 3rd
2026 Fall: 4th
feels like fans are drifting toward Morning Musume/Beyooooonds' new members
I do kinda want to see Hana-chan and Yuina-chan, so even though I like Rosy, I'll probably end up going there
If the release events get announced late, the multi-fandom ('DD') fans will probably already be locked into other groups' fall tours — turnout could be rough
Murakoshi: "Please sing along with everyone for the last song!"
Fan: (Was there even a song like that…?)
The intro to "8bit One-Sided Love" starts playing
Fan: "Ah— look even closer at my heart…"
Rosy Men (the group's cheer squad): "More!"
Fan: "D-don't you dare ever look at my acne…"
I want to do that 😭‼
Juice=Juice and Tsubaki Factory can already do it, so there's no reason Rosy can't
Yeah, that's true — it kills your motivation to buy a bunch
Yuriya gets flustered doing that
o/
I like Rosy, they're fun
compared to Ocha(Norma) fans they feel less jaded, which I find likable
I'm not a lolicon so I stay away from trainees — I only started going to shows after their debut
though everyone predicted it'd be for an album release
Why should I have to sense the uncertainty and act on it myself? What kind of arrogance is that?
Still, I can't make plans without a confirmed schedule
Background and Key Points of This Discussion
Rosy Chronicle is a group under the Hello! Project umbrella. According to one post in the thread (#46), they released their 1st single in winter 2025 and have followed up with new songs roughly every six months to a year since, making this 4th single a fall 2026 release. The discussion centers on two main points. The first is bewilderment over putting the word “great misfortune” (daikyo) in the title (#9, #11), which drew some self-deprecating defense along the lines of “well, they’re the ‘great misfortune’ group, so at least they’re self-aware” (#16). The second is concern over sales, crystallized in comments like “hope they can hold the line at 50,000 copies” (#40), reflecting worries (#48, #56) that fans may be drifting toward Morning Musume’s newly added members. November 4 is also a fiercely contested release date, with several other groups dropping singles the same day (#34), and repeated questions came up about whether release events can realistically fit around the group’s tour schedule — painting a picture of on-the-ground fan reaction that goes well beyond a simple new-single announcement.
