Thank you to everyone for watching the video! Just something I wanted to talk about. I’m aware that some claim Seiko has done other things outside of “power harassment”, but I have never come across that being stated by any members. If there is something I missed you can definitely comment about it, BUT you must quote the source too. Serious allegations must be backed up. Thanks!

Hearing about ZOC in all the different videos makes me actually really curious to watch this video. It's like a whole story arc😄

Me watching the whole idol playlist and this not being in it was a crime

I love Kanano and Katie. I wonder if it's really true that Katie didn't take showers😂 as usual. This was a fantastic video and very informative.

Thank you. Always liked ZOC, but did not know much about their history

I'm a hello!project fan for a long time & I know Maro as Fukuda Kanon since she just debuted with Smileage. And of course, I also know Seiko as a huge H!P fan & I was initially happy with Maro working with Seiko, despite Seiko's music not being my taste. But I saw one clip before the scandal broke out that changed my view of Seiko. In that clip she told other celebrity h!p fans how she loved H!P so much but didn't care much about them once they graduated. Like 'even if they die, i couldn't care less'. her comment left a bitter taste in my mouth, like how would she treat Maro now that she had graduated from H!P??? So when the scandal broke I was not really surprised. Thank god, Maro is now not in her clutches. Seiko seems like a toxic person, that's my honest opinion.

Wow, didn’t know about that… Thanks for the comment!

@@DudeJericho H!P fan here since 2013✋️ I remembered on Twitter when the scandal broke, it was a post about an audio where Seiko was shouting at Maro and even hitting her. Also, Maro did public that she lives with Bipolar disorder a little before Zoc and it gets worse when she joined. I don't remembered if it was officially said by her but, it's well know that all get to the point Maro had alcoholic problems due working on Zoc. PS: She's a lyricist too and wrote songs for H!P groups and Engeki Joshibu (a unit dedicated to musicals). Even wrote songs for her best friend of Angerme whe she graduated.

You are doing wonderful work John. I have long been interested in Japanese music, but the backstories elude me as I do not understand Japanese. It is nice to see that there is a lot of interesting stuff to say about it and also explains the comments I see under videos. Your work is really helpful to me.

@moharikram1687 2 месяца назад

Good summary of the ZOC lore.... Should explain a bit more of who Kannagi Maro was before she joined them though. Long story short: I'm not taking Maro said on all those fiasco but if she talks about power harassment, it probably is. That girl "used" to all weird decisions before she joined them.

"most infamous idol group". hardly. that would be OG Bis. without bis, zoc would have never existed

@foothugger 2 месяца назад

it wouldn't even be accurate to say "bis walked so other alternative idol groups could run" bis walked so other alternative idol groups can walk in bis' shadow.

@jase276 2 месяца назад

@@Smoses_senpai Eh, it wasn't really all what it's cracked up to be. At least, the OG Ladybaby. You really only went to see Ladybeard. Rie and Rei at the time weren't that experienced so half of the time it was them trying to catch up with Ladybeard. That's kind of what led to Ladybaby disbanding the first time. Ladybeard left, so Rie and Rei had to carry the weight. And the whole concept of Ladybaby was supposed to be an experiment copying Babymetal. Rei wanted to go back to her band and the idol training was too brutal so she left. Which is a shame because they were really starting to find their vibe with "Ladybaby Blue". The 4 member Ladybaby with Rie, now THAT clapped. Sadly, one of the members wanted to go to college, though, so they kind of went on hiatus and eventually disbanded

I had the great honour of meeting Oomori Seiko a couple of years ago. Without a doubt she has more talent in her little finger than the people who criticize her. Yeah, she's a little crazy, like any true genius.
