Mass Graduation for H!P  (Sakuraichigo’s Weblog)

Obviously this is huge news, and most everbody is going to have a strong reaction to it.  We will try to get to everyone…

Celestia was initially shocked, but the more she thinks about it, the more she understands it from a business standpoint.  She also asks the question I have been wondering.  What happens to the Eggs that were in O.G., and does the futsal team disband as well?

Despite the title, pengie IS upset by the news.  She has posted initial reaction from last night’s wotachat.  And leaves us with this dreary thought…

“Hello! Project will be reduced to a writhing, snivelling mass of girls under the age of 25 who focus purely on cutesy bubblegum pop and not getting pregnant.”

Morningtime figures this is the end for just about everyone, save Charmy and Yossie who are just starting on Hangry & Angry.  He also wonders is Gatas’ graduation means the group is actually breaking up?  M figures UFA and H!P’s treatment of the Elders contributed to stagnation and a lack of popularity, causing this to be inevitable.

Pex saw the Mega Best Collections as a sign, and wonders why everyone graduating didn’t get a CD release.  Pex also wishes the girls good health and future success.

Sakuraichigo sees this as the biggest thing EVER to happen in H!P, and wonders if there are any new auditions on the horizon.

Many many more to come…
