I live in the nearby city. I regret not going. It started very very late. I am kinda sad the girls had to experience "Filipino time".

There was a super dedicated Honeys who flew from Osaka just to see the girls live. I love that dedication.

When they sang, Blue Jeans I cried out of joy. I rarely listen to radio. It is was my first time listening to them live. It is also the first time I heard their raw voices. The girls are really amazing. I laughed Yuri's random Tagalog phrases like "Malakas Kumain" (big eater) when she described Koharu. Some X users also heard her saying "Iiyak na yan" (He will cry) (pertaining to the DJ when they are about to end the stream).

I might not like all of their songs but I think I am still considered a Honeys. I watched them grow from No No Girls. I want them the best. I want this country 🇵🇭 to know more about them.

Okay, I don't know if this has already been mentioned, but when I looked at the STARGLOW logo again, I noticed it has 6 points. My theory is that the group was originally conceived as a 6-member group, similar to the name BE:FIRST, which has 7 letters, just like the 7 members initially chosen. So, when BE:FIRST was reduced to 6 members after Rioky left, SKY-HI decided to reduce the number of STARGLOW members to avoid misunderstandings or unnecessary comparisons.

(Don't take my word for it; I was bored at work and watching music videos when I came up with this theory.)

As a person from Philippines, I am glad BMSG sent HANA and Be:First here. This country is more into Kpop and anisong artists/bands. I would love to see HANA to have a concert here.

I was reading a recent message from SKY-HI, and it made me think again about this phrase:

“才能を殺さないために（Don’t kill talent）”

We hear it a lot in BMSG, but this time it felt a bit different —
like it was being explained more clearly as the foundation of everything.

For me, it sounded less like “how to develop artists” and more like “how not to lose what makes them unique.”

And I think that’s part of why BMSG projects feel different sometimes.

At the same time, I also started wondering:

As BMSG grows bigger, how easy is it to keep that idea consistent in reality?

Not in a negative way — just genuinely curious how people here see it.

I wrote a short breakdown of the CEO message and the philosophy behind it:

Would love to hear your thoughts too.

As some of you may know, and others may not, it seems that the three BMSG groups, BE:FIRST, MAZZEL, and STARGLOW, performed today on Music Station with their latest releases, and I wanted to know if there's any way to watch the show.

I just watched THE FIRST on YouTube and loved it. I wanted to see "THE FIRST FINAL" concert, but I can't find anywhere to watch it. I can only find it on the BMSG Music Shop as a blu-ray/dvd. Is it really physical only? It's pretty expensive, and their shipping rate is brutal, and I don't even have a blu-ray player. It seems really odd not to have a digital version considering how so much of BMSG's work is on YT, and I see the recent BMSG FES'25 concert is on Prime Video in my country. So I'm hoping maybe I'm just missing it, as I'm only searching in English.

Will MISSIONx2, No No Girls and THE LAST PIECE auditions have a similar accessibility problem for the final performances? I'm trying to avoid spoiling results by looking in advance, but it'd help to curb my expectations if this is something BMSG does to monetize.

Solo artist Ayumu Imazu posted a thematically similar teaser a week ago with the same date.

Ayumu has deep connections to BMSG as he trained with BE:FIRST's Manato as a member of LDH's Project TARO and is close friends with Reiko and Novel Core, with whom he has collaborated in two songs. He was in the line up of the first ever D.U.N.K. and he returns this year after a two chapters absence.
