beyooooonds were formed in 2018, but officially debuted in 2019. i had found hello!project by way of suzuki airi's solo work, but i always credit my staying in the fandom to beyooooonds - they're my favorite idol group of all time and despite their many unexplained hiatuses i don't think any other group will ever dethrone them. their musical theater concept is unique to them in the idol industry and their combination of that with iconic h!p weirdness is endearing and engaging. i wish they had more chances to show their talents but the hiatuses kind of get in the way of that.
