Welcome to TIFriday, my weekly installment of finishing up profiling the guests at this year’s Tokyo Idol Festival!<\/p>\n

Fishing idols! No, not like Watanabe Miyuki. Their literal concept is fishing. They’re a five member unit that was formed this year with girls (between twelve and fifteen) who apparently all like to fish. This is such a cute concept to me, I have to like them.<\/p>\n

That said, they were formed only a few months ago, so if you want a group with lots of history it might be tough. However, this may be a good thing, if you want to follow a group from the beginning. They’ve released two singles so far: Start Dash and Manatsu no Tentai Kansoku. For being so new, they have a really good production quality to their music and videos! According to Tokyo Girls’ Update<\/a> they are produced by a musician and film director, which really adds to their music video quality. Who knows why they were chosen to be a fishing unit, but it’s definitely not the strangest gimmick out there.<\/p>\n

All the girls are pretty cute, I think, and I think the theme’s adorable. The music’s definitely not that bad, and they are pretty cute, if unpolished, performers. I’m interested to see where they go from here!<\/p>\n
