47-Shot Summer Chronicle

J-Palette 2nd Single: "47-mai no Summer Chronicle"

**Overview**
J-Palette, a next-generation idol group representing all 47 Japanese prefectures, is releasing their highly anticipated second single, "47-mai no Summer Chronicle." Following their global debut with "Kimi-iro Sparkle," this new track features the entire roster, including newly added members.

**Concept & Theme**
The number "47" in the title holds a dual meaning: it honors Japan's 47 prefectures and represents the 47 usable shots in two 24-exposure rolls of film. The project contrasts perfectly edited digital photos with the raw, unpredictable nostalgia of disposable cameras. The song aims to capture the essence of "invincible friendship" the authentic, unfiltered, and muddy memories of youth during an unforgettable summer spent together.

**Music & Artwork**

**Sound:** A fast-paced summer pop anthem featuring a soaring brass section. It blends bright energy with J-Palette's signature introspective and emotional tone.
**Jacket Art:** Designed to look like a physical developed photograph rather than clean digital data. It features rough handwriting and an orange date stamp reading "'26 06 10" to immortalize the fleeting summer of 2026.

**Formation**
This single continues the "fully selected" format, meaning all group members participate in the song without a tier or exclusion system.

**Center:** Hanazawa Yuzuki (Shiga Prefecture) Chosen to lead this track for her gentle, transparent, and nostalgic aura that perfectly matches the song's melancholic tone.
**Front Members:**
* Nanase Kotono (Nara) The previous center, now stepping aside to support the new lead.
* Sakurai Momone (Gifu)
* Shiozaki Rumi (Tokushima)
* Hikawa Rin (Hiroshima) *New to the front*
* Nagisaya Minami (Ehime) *New to the front*
* Kurose Reina (Ishikawa) *New to the front*, adding a unique personality as a hardcore pro-wrestling fan.

This new lineup is designed to showcase the evolving dynamic and rich diversity of J-Palette.
