- Meshiya/Ruuri joke about inviting her every week.
- Yukinco: I’m always saying like Anzu that live events are a bother! But then I see photos of events I didn’t go to and think: that must be nice~
Meshiya: You’re being such a tsundere!
Ruuri: Oh yeah, you do always say that!
Yukinco: I’m looking at your group photos on twitter, and suddenly get this extremely lonely feeling. Like I’m just a house-sitter.

- Yukinco’s most used stamp is Mikunyan.
- Ruuri: When those stamps got released, our Cinderella Girls LINE group exploded.
Yukinco: “I don’t wanna work” stamp got instantly posted.
Meshiya: As soon as it came out, my manager told me she bought them!
Yukinco: Same. First stamp my manager sent me was “I don’t wanna work” and I was like “WHAT?” - They want stamps of their senpai idols like Kawashima-san and Koume. And Producer.

Better Know a Producer #05: Shinikenshi
Every successful group of organized criminals has a tough and respected boss and Shinikenshi fills that role for us. Some say he once fought a tiger with nothing but a glowstick and a mahjong tile as weapons and won. Ok nobody says that, but in any case Shinikenshi is a very valuable member of HPT who is always helping the other members out, especially with buying goods from Japan. He even once sacrificed his own luggage just so he could bring back goods to the others back in the west (;_;). Being an old man, we really shouldn’t rely on him so often, but I guess it can’t really be helped. Sorry boss!
THE IDOLM@STER STATION!!!~Zenzen Aitakatta~
Last week, on March 1st, through two miraculous strokes of lottery luck, I and fellow HPT’er Omo were lucky enough to attend THE IDOLM@STER STATION!! ~Zenzen aitakatta~ public recording at Kawasaki Club CITTA.
This event marked the first time the Aisute radio series (including past incarnations) has held a public recording event, and the 2nd time for an Aisute live event (see the amazing HEART AND SOUL event in 2012).
Since I neglected to write-up C3HK in any formal way, I figured I should at least do one here. Everything described below is pretty much dumped from my memory, so apologies in advance if there are any mistakes.

Better Know a Producer #04: Seraph
I promise this is the last Canadian P for now. #04 in our Better Know a Producer series, Seraph another Producer from the frigid north! It’s quite odd but you could say I’ve known Seraph the longest out of anyone in HPT. We both were on the Tales series online forums back in 2007 but we didn’t talk to each other much (remember I said Tales actually introduced me to im@s). 7 years later he would become discovered by the Canadian Ps and became more converted to im@s and that’s when I got to know him better. Life’s funny.
Better Know a Producer #03: vota
#03 in the Better Know a Producer series, another resident P from Canada known as vota! The first time I met vota was at Anime North 2014. I only really knew him as a general seiyuu fan but he seemed interested and willing to learn more about im@s and after some enabling a small push he’s become a greater im@s fan and another member of HPT himself! (I cannot be held responsible for any damages his wallet may have suffered)
P Culture: Producer name cards
Over the course of last 10 years, Producers have developed their own set of customs and exchanging Producer name cards is one of them. However, what are those cards? What’s on them? Why are they even made? Should I make my own? Let’s answer these and a few more questions!
