New Artist Profile Picture for SI*NA
The Hello! Project Official Website has finally uploaded a new profile picture for SI*NA to reflect the departure of Nakayama Nana, the group is a 3-person unit from here on.
I wish UFA would give them a debut, even an indies debut would do! They’ve been around from 2005 and haven’t had a single release!

SI☆NA: Hello! Pro Kansai make their debut.
It has been announced that Kansai based trainee group Hello! Pro Kansai has moved from trainee status to full membership and will debut as SI☆NA.
SI☆NA (pronounced shiina) consists of Suma Ai, Iwashima Manami, Nakayama Nana & Abe Asami. Interestingly the whole of the group is also a member of the recently announced HAPPY! STYLE.
I’d been hoping Hello! Pro Kansai would gain full membership at some point this year. I’m not sure if they’ll remain Kansai based though I’d like to see them get a release. They’re not a bad group of singers and have more individual looks than the standard Hello! Project fair.
It’s unknown at this time if and when SI☆NA will make their musical debut.
New Unit:Happy! Style
A new unit featuring members of Hello! Project has been announced with the name Happy! Style. The group features Hello! Pro Egg leader Noto Arisa, Hello! Pro Kansai members Nakayama Nana, Iwashima Manami, Abe Asami and Suma Ai as well as two newcomers; Aoi and Yui.
The group is with Up-Front Style and will sing well known anime themes and idol songs. The unit has so far not been announced as a part of Hello! Project or TNX, I imagine it will simply remain an Up-Front Style group.
Stay tuned for more information!
Also check out the pretty basic Happy! Style website which has information on their first live which will be on 2008-05-06.
