Alice Project: Understanding Chaos Part 1

I have titled this post “understanding chaos” because when you look at the idol company Alice Project from the outside it looks like a chaotic mess ,when actually it`s  not. OK well maybe it really is and some understanding chaos is needed.
So let`s jump right in.

Alice Project is much like Hello!Project and the 48s all rolled into one .It has trainees ,multiple units .What sets this Indie Idol company apart from the mainstream is that all of its members are in multiple units within the company ,some are in as many as 3 units.

Because of this a random fan, can often become confused as to what group they are watching ,I will try to clear it up some in this series and introduce you to some units ,you maybe seeing for the first time.

The most talked about group from Alice Project on Pure Idol Heart is Alice 10Ban [Alice Juban]. Alice 10Ban  is like the Morning Musume or AKB48 of this company, the flagship unit. They are  also one of two company groups that stage dive .The other is Pureful ,which happens to have the Alice 10Ban members that stage dive in it. More on Pureful later.
