On September 11, 2026, Juice=Juice, NiziU, and FRUITS ZIPPER appeared together on TBS’s music special “CDTV Live! Live! Autumn Thanksgiving Festival 2026,” and the live commentary thread on 5ch’s Hello! Project board lit up as fans watched the broadcast in real time. The show featured collaborative stages and segments where idols descended into the audience, with viewers tracking the setlist and running order in minute detail. What really got people talking was the difference in how loudly each act’s fans called out from the crowd — one comment noting “the crowd’s energy is night and day compared to when Juice=Juice was on” drew pushback like “that’s just a difference in fanbase,” sparking the kind of back-and-forth only a live thread can produce.

Eye-contact session (a fan-service bit where idols lock eyes with individual fans)

Whenever they go down into the crowd it always turns kind of chaotic, so eh

45AnonymousSep 11, 2026 19:59

'Kindan Shoujo' is the best moment today
58AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:01
They probably told every group to do a crowd-descent segment
67AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:02
Wait, she had cat ears on?
78AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:03
Maybe they turn the mic down when they go into the crowd so it doesn't pick up some random otaku yelling weird stuff?
86AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:06

Re: #86
They came in through the audience for 'Pride Bright'
95AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:09
Re: #86
Thought there was an unfamiliar song in there —
guess it's listed because only Ishiyama was part of it
88AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:07
Rough job being the emcee tonight
99AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:10
They can make it all the way up top during just one song?
100AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:10
They probably wanted to try the bazooka pose, but once FRUITS ZIPPER paraded all the way up to the top level, it kind of made Juice=Juice look like they were slacking by comparison
101AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:11
The crowd's energy is night and day compared to when Juice=Juice was on
104AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:12
Re: #101
That's because Juice=Juice still hasn't fully become TV-ready talents
102AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:12
Lip-syncing lol
103AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:12
Oh, filming's allowed
No wonder it's blowing up online
106AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:14
It's just a different type of fanbase
Not the kind of crowd that's there to enjoy the music live
123AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:16
The calls are so loud you'd wonder where they all came from
124AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:16
The volume on those calls is on a whole different level
129AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:17
Trolling isn't gonna make Morning Musume。 rise back up
Same as back when they were spamming the ℃-ute threads nonstop
135AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:17
Will the day ever come when these guys sing live for real?
139AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:19
Wow, that song's already six years old
140AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:19
ｷﾀ━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━!! (a classic 5ch cheer meaning "HERE IT COMES!!")
149AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:19
Ichitako's in top form again today (fan nickname for a member duo)
153AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:20
Not enough otaku in the crowd, so the calls have no punch
156AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:20
Ria Matsunaga's just got that pro-level aura
162AnonymousSep 11, 2026 20:21
For a "Moremi" show, this crowd's pretty thin (a fan nickname for the broadcast)
Background and Discussion Points
“CDTV Live! Live!” is a long-running TBS music special series where multiple artists perform their own songs alongside collaborative stages, a format that’s become standard for the show. Opinion in the thread split over how to interpret the difference in crowd energy — some argued “the excitement level was on a whole different scale,” while others countered it came down to “a difference in fanbase.” Hello! Project groups have a long history of cultivating call-and-response culture at their shows, but stages where filming is permitted tend to draw crowds more focused on recording clips and spreading them on social media, so the gap in visible excitement can’t be chalked up to popularity alone. Several posts also pointed out apparent lip-syncing, though it’s worth noting that the actual sound setup can’t be confirmed from forum comments alone.
