The story
A post has gone up on 5ch’s Hello! Project board, complete with screenshots, claiming that posts from Hello! Project’s new group BEYOOOOONDS are drawing reactions from Johnny’s fans as well. The thread brings up how a group called “Moreremi” previously saw its profile grow after catching on with Johnny’s fans in a similar way, and opinion is split on whether this time’s reaction is happening naturally or is the work of promo accounts and marketers.

Early momentum comes from spamming comments on Johnny's videos to borrow the pulling power of Johnny's fans.
Back then it was mostly just so-called "A-shizu" types (slang for a specific slice of Johnny's fandom) — nowhere near this shameless.
If anything, it looks more like Johnny's fans are the ones jumping on the bandwagon here.
This is just marketers.
Johnny's fans get used as cover for this stuff all the time.
Nah, it's just promotion.
Probably because Hello! Project fans replied to their comments last time, so now it's like 'hey, this actually works as promo.'

Background and Key Points of This Discussion
“Moreremi” is cited as a Hello! Project-affiliated group whose profile is said to have grown in the past after catching the attention of Johnny’s fans, and that history is treated as background knowledge in the thread. The claim being discussed this time is that reactions to BEYOOOOONDS are spreading in a similar way — but there’s no evidence beyond a screenshot, and several posts openly question whether the reaction is even genuine, throwing around words like “self-promotion,” “marketers,” “bot script,” and “A-shizu” (apparently slang for a specific segment of Johnny’s fandom). In other words, the thread’s real point of contention isn’t whether BEYOOOOONDS has actually become popular, but the step before that: whether this “starting to get noticed” phenomenon is happening organically or is manufactured marketing. Because posts on 5ch are anonymous by nature, there’s no way for a third party to confirm whether these are genuinely Johnny’s fan accounts, so this article leaves that question open.
