Konno Asami returns to Gatas

Submitted 2007-06-18 03:03 PM

Konno Asami will be returning to the Hello! Project futsal team "Gatas Brilhantes H.P." The team will also be releasing its first single, "Narihajimeta Koi no Bell", as a support song for the Dralion circus on August 22.

The former Morning Musume member and star goalkeeper left the Hello! Project last year to enter Keio University, and plans to fit Gatas around her studies. The single release comes in the middle of the University's summer break, and it will be performed for the first time during the Hello! Project's summer concert tour on July 17 in Nagoya.

Through graduations and scandals, Gatas have lost several key members over the last year. The new team for the single has been boosted by the addition of several Hello! Project Eggs, and is now said to have the following line-up:

Yoshizawa Hitomi, Ishikawa Rika, Satoda Mai, Korenaga Miki, Konno Asami, Noto Arisa, Mano Erina, Sengoku Minami, Sawada Yuri, Mutou Mika.
