So for those of you who don't spend every waking second checking the Hello! Online newsfeed, I just thought I'd let you know H!P just imploded on itself. Total collapse.

In fact they are graduating entire Elder Club. Like Kuno says: "Yep. All of them".

That means all the oldtimers are gone and out of there. Also Ongaku Gatas gets the axe.

I'm not going to speculate on just how deeply H!Ps money-problems are getting these days, apart from that the last two years we have seen a steady decline in everything looking like budgets when it gets to H!P. TV-shows? PVs? They've been getting cheaper by the day.

I'm not sure what to say here, but I guess this ends the debate about if "UFA should get Yaguchi a solo career". Hopefully this doesn't affect Yaguchi's career too much (since it's not very closely tied to H!P), and we still get our weekly fix of Yaguchi Hitori among other things.

Also, Hello! Online updated their story with comments from Tsunku and Nakazawa. Evidently this all goes down March 31st 2009. We'll see what happens then.
