#bcs CoA had to handle a sudden amount of popularity in like. their entire school as TEENAGERS

love how CoA and HapiAra were faced with the same problem but HapiAra didn't break up because they talked to each other lmao

(tags ended up being pretty long so watch out lol)

#itlogthoughts #THIS IS AN EXTREME OVERSIMPLIFICATION I KNOW but there are some similarities #imo if peaky and photon weren't there i feel like hapiara would've taken a similar route to CoA #bcs CoA had to handle a sudden amount of popularity in like. their entire school as TEENAGERS #and shano and toka already had reservations with an agency beforehand so there's that extra pressure #but i still see the similarity that half of the unit wanted to go professional; while the other wanted to stay as-is #if peaky weren't there to take the brunt of the popularity then maybe hapiara would've gone the same way as CoA did #imagine; a unit formed by first-years (one of which who had JUST transferred into the school and had no idea what a DJ let alone a DJ unit #could be) who had gotten popular and climbed the school ranks in just MONTHS #BEAT a group curated by shano (who was a former member of a legendary DJ unit) and collaborated with #THE biggest unit in school (peaky) and fought to the top of the D4Fes. rookie stages #and THEN got invited to D4Fes. AGAIN but as a MAIN ACT THIS TIME #i'm a little murky on the details and idk if CoA was invited to D4Fes. as CoA or as ScarNa and L-Eyes #(and how shano and airi's performance together shown in first mix was the result of a shuffle unit) (i think that's it?) #but my point is! HapiAra could've had the opportunity to become a “professional” unit if dj mash (can't say her name tumblr will block me) #and muni decided to push for being pros #and it could've created a rift between the group since both rei and rinku wanted to stay as-is #but neither dj mash nor muni had reservations with an agency AND they were willing to hear each other out #so since they didn't have a ton of external pressure on them; they were able to compromise as a group and keep going together #idk this post is a mess but i hope whoever's reading understands what i'm saying here HAHAHA
