(July 16th, 2014) It was announced today via social media and newsletter that Avex's girl bilingual group "FAKY" will be "revamped" meaning one or more of the girls will leave the group. They will also undergo an image development. Their mini album, which was due for release April 2014 has been delayed until July 2nd. Read the message below for more details.

When I was in Japan last week, this song was being played EVERYWHERE. Now I can't get it out of my head.
We all know Japan prides itself on having one of the lowest obesity rates in the developed world. However, a recent trend known as "marshmallow girls" (girls who are viewed as 'soft') is receiving mainstream attention from the likes of Avex who created a group called "Chubbiness." Made up of 10 plus sized women found through open casting, the group was expected to debut in spring but has not as of May 2014 apparently due to lack of popular. The girls have made appearances on talk shows. The group has been criticized for riding on a gimmick and the ten girls while larger than the normal rail-thin Jpop star we're used to seeing cannot be considered 'big'.
Old news I know but I don't think(?) this group was mentioned on Arama and thought it would be an interesting thing to look at and discuss. What do you think Arama?

I love Dancing Dolls :) For some reason I can never watch their YT videos, though, because they're blocked for me :/
Since Arama has been pretty empty lately and the weekly FFA's seem to have vanished unfortunately, I felt that it was time to get this community to actually communicate and participate again. I hope the mods will allow me to do this.
Use it to get to know one another and maybe discuss your different/similar music tastes.
Rules are as follows: Post a comment answering the things below. You may do so in words, links, with embedded songs/videos or any other way you like. I only ask that, should you embed a video, please resize it to something smaller so that the comment section is not spammed too much (For those who do not know how, many sites like Youtube have a section for their embed codes with an option for custom size. Choose something that is preferably not wider than 300px).
Since this is an Arama-specific Meme I'm asking for Japanese songs. This may seem to narrow your choices down but maybe it'll also make it easier! :)
That's it, guys! Have fun and party together!
EDIT: Can I just say: Thank you guys for participating! I never expected that so many would take part in this, I wish it would always be like this, like the FFA's back in the day :)
