Official Live Report: 'Habatake! Idol Fes IN TV Osaka vol.3'

The idol event 'Habatake! Idol Fes IN TV Osaka vol.3,' organized by TV Osaka, took place on Sunday, May 24, at the TV Osaka headquarters hall.

Popularly known as 'Haba-Fes,' the event is characterized by its unique 'broadcasting station takeover' style and is linked to the Wednesday late-night TV program 'Habatake! Idol Fes.' Beyond the music, the event aims to nurture idols from Kansai to gain national recognition through variety-style competition segments and collaborative performances that transcend group boundaries.

Held in two sessions, the event saw a record 10 groups performing. The first session featured Fille mimi, Osaka 24-ku Girls, Super Pu-Ba!!, Good Crew, and W. Double Vee. Fille mimi, having earned their spot through a successful stage at the affiliated 'Habatake! Idol Fes NEXT' event, performed four songs including 'Kimi to Summer RIDE!!' as the opening act.

Following the first live session, the customary variety battle segment, 'Member Color Competition! Haba-Fes Cute Battle,' was held. Members were divided into Red and Green teams for challenges like a ping-pong ball relay and a poker-face competition. The Red team emerged victorious, winning high-end strawberries as a prize.

At the end of the first session, a collaboration stage featured the 'purple member' trio: Rena (W. Double Vee), Sara Amou (Good Crew), and Akane Amou (Super Pu-Ba!!). They captivated the audience with a cover of Buono!'s 'Hatsukoi Cider.'

The second session featured five groups: Subete no Shunkan wa Kimi datta., Miraculand, Ocha Mental☆Party, Axelight, and Colorful Scream. Colorful Scream, having recently added new member Rina, performed four songs, including their new track 'Kirameki! Ryusei Liner.'

After the second session's live performances, the variety battle 'I Am the Cutest! Haba-Fes Cute Battle' was held, keeping the venue's energy high with various challenges.
