History[]

2008[]

HANGRY & ANGRY is a unit made up of former Morning Musume fourth generation members Ishikawa Rika and Yoshizawa Hitomi. The duo was created to promote h.Naoto's "HANGRY & ANGRY" fashion line. When performing or making appearances, the members sport clothes from the brand and take on the roles of the brand's mascot characters. They are said to have arrived on earth from the H44 Star Nebula in their time machine called "LOVE MACHINE" in order to save the world from global warming.

Although both Yoshizawa and Ishikawa were long-time members of Hello! Project, this group was not part of the Hello! Project family, but still operated under the UP-FRONT GROUP umbrella. Shortly after the announcement of the group's formation, it was announced that there would be a mass-graduation of all the members of Elder Club (which included both Yoshizawa and Ishikawa). This graduation did not interfere with the group.

On November 22, the new HANGRY & ANGRY store opened.

On November 19th, They released a mini-album titled Kill Me Kiss Me; the single of the same name was also released on their MySpace page. The mini-album was released under GOTHUALL, a label created exclusively for the group under UP-FRONT WORKS. It was released simultaneously in Japan and in the U.S. (available in the U.S. exclusively by JapanFiles), as well as in Korea and Taiwan. This is the first time any members of Hello! Project have officially released anything outside of Asia.

On December 16, it was announced that HANGRY & ANGRY would be making their U.S. premiere at Sakura-Con 2009 from April 10 to April 12, 2009 at the Washington Convention Center in Seattle. There was a live performance as well as an autograph and a Q&A session.
