KnB's debut

The above partial image was pulled from Kirei no Bijoux's forums. They are a recently created dubbing project run by Ameimii and Memoiree, and just released their first groupdub! I found out about them somehow around a month ago and promised to keep an eye out for their debut. I have limited knowledge and shall try and find out more.

KnB currently has four main groups; Dazzling Diamonds (covering mainly Morning Musume), Radiant Rubies (covering mainly C-ute), Shiny Sapphires (covering mainly Berryz Koubou), & Pearl Babies (covering all kinds of H!P groups). There are 20+ members overall, some participating in more than one group.

List of who's in each group is listed on their channel. If you explore the forums a little, you can read about what the debut release from the other groups will be. Right now it looks like; Onna ni Sachi Are by Diamonds, Madayade by Sapphires, and Cinderella\Complex by PearlBs. Each single will also have a B-side. As for Radiant Rubies~

Edo no Temari Uta II / Not a very long dub, but still a fabulous one! I really like the group parts, the blending; everyone sounds great together. The chorus is really catchy, and these ladies did a fabulous job singing it. LOL, I looked up the lyrics, and I'd never knew that they were counting in this song. Like the "Hiiya Fuuya Miiya Youya" etc, parts.

Memoiree at 0:32 on the opening solo, she has such a lovely voice. Following her is LL at 0:39 with good energy! 0:42 is Miri, sounding very cute but she could have maybe been a little bit louder. I adore Fuyu as Airi! Her first solo is at 0:45, and she sounds great on her little "ee" vocal bit in the middle of the line. She also sinsgs at 1:13 right after the first chorus. A very Airi-ish voice, but all her own. Cute.

1:20 is Mai as Mai (lol). She almost seems to, slur? Like "Honoo ni." Her diction could use some work, but she does have a kawaii voice. Airen at 1:23, it's hard to form an opinion of someone from one line, but what I did hear was wonderful. 1:26 is Mystery. She had good energy and I liked the little vibrato on her ending note.

Congrats to Radiant Rubies on their debut! Keep an eye out for the B-side to this single, Wasuretakunai Natsu, as well as more from Kirei no Bijoux's other groups in the future! This looks to be a promising project~
