{{nihongo|'''Petitmoni'''|プッチモニ|}}, also known as '''Pucchi Moni''', was the second official subgroup of J-Pop girl group [[Morning Musume]]. They sang fast-paced, upbeat songs.


{{nihongo|'''Petit Moni'''|プッチモニ|Pucchi Moni}} was a sub-unit of the Japanese [[Japanese idol|idol]] [[girl group]] [[Morning Musume]] and associated with [[Hello! Project]]. It was formed by [[Up-Front Promotion]] in November 1999 as the second sub-group of Morning Musume.

(L-R) Maki Goto, Sayaka Ichii, Kei Yasuda.|left]] Founded November, 1999, the group's first generation of members consisted of three Morning Musume members: [[Kei Yasuda]], [[Sayaka Ichii]], and [[Maki Goto]]. Shortly after their formation, the group released their first single, "[[Chokotto LOVE]]," which sold more than 1 million copies.


== History ==
After the release of the first single, on [[May 21]], [[2000]] [[Sayaka Ichii]] graduated from both Morning Musume and Petitmoni. In order to fill the third member's position, their producer [[Tsunku]] placed [[Hitomi Yoshizawa]] into the group, forming the second generation. Petitmoni went on to three more singles, with their only album, Zenbu! Pucchi Moni, released in August of 2002. The album was a collection of all their singles and B-side tracks, along with three extra tracks.

After the release of the first single, on May 21, 2000, [[Sayaka Ichii]] graduated from both [[Morning Musume]] and Petitmoni.

Maki Goto graduated from both Morning Musume and Petitmoni in 2002. Shortly thereafter, Kei Yasuda's graduation was announced for 2003. This sparked yet another formation change, in which [[Ayaka Kimura]] (of [[Coconuts Musume]]) and [[Makoto Ogawa]] were added. Yoshizawa became the new leader, but the new lineup never released a single; only a song entitled WOW WOW WOW and a remake of Chokotto LOVE, which were included on later Pucchi Best compilation CDs.

As of 2003, the group has been on indefinite hiatus. With [[Makoto Ogawa]] going on hiatus to attend college, there is no immediate sign of their return.

Petit Moni (プッチモニ, Pucchi Moni) was a sub-unit of the Japanese idol girl group Morning Musume and associated with Hello! Project. It was formed by Up-Front Promotion in November 1999 as the second sub-group of Morning Musume.

History

[edit]

Founded November 1999, the group initially consisted of Morning Musume members Kei Yasuda, Sayaka Ichii, and Maki Goto. Shortly after their formation, the group released their first single, "Chokotto Love," which sold more than 1 million copies.

After the release of the first single, on May 21, 2000, Sayaka Ichii graduated from both Morning Musume and Petitmoni. In order to fill the third member's position, their producer Tsunku placed 4th generation member Hitomi Yoshizawa into the group, forming the second generation. Petitmoni went on to release three more singles, with their only album, Zenbu! Petitmoni, released in August 2002. The album was a collection of all of their singles and B-side tracks, along with three extra tracks.

Goto graduated from both Morning Musume and Petitmoni in 2002. Shortly thereafter, Yasuda's graduation was announced for 2003. This sparked yet another formation change, in which Ayaka Kimura (of Coconuts Musume) and 5th generation member Makoto Ogawa were added. Yoshizawa became the new leader, but the new lineup never released a single; only a song entitled "Wow Wow Wow" and a remake of "Chokotto Love," which were included on later Petit Best compilation CDs.

The group went on an indefinite hiatus in 2003, and was effectively disbanded in subsequent years with Ogawa leaving to study English abroad in 2006, Yoshizawa graduating from Morning Musume in 2007, and Kimura leaving Hello! Project and Up-Front Agency in 2008.
