As of yesterday the count was around 7000 pictures collected. 3000 more seems to be a hard number to reach. It’s possible they will either fail or just fall short of their goal.

hmmm, only a couple more days until the deadline… any more news on how they’re making out with this? I’m sort of worried about them

Perhaps this campaign is more of a test to see if the group can handle all the promotional work they’ll have to do on a major label. Either that or Tsunku just likes fucking with his artists & making them suffer. I don’t find 10,000 to be too extreme of a number but given H!P’s current popularity in Japan maybe it could be an unrealistic number to reach.

I think they’ll be able to make it.

Well as a H!P fan, I did so too but I do wonder if they do fail, what will happen. In general I think 10,000 smiles was too much even if they had higher totals in general. But I do hope that they do debut without going through all the crap but I think they should do something like take pictures of people smiling or something like that to get to that amount.

In any case, keep going!
