## Ongoing Activities

On the group twitter, members will answer weekly questions called "Weekly Happy." These answers are then collected and gathered in a "Weekly Happy Roundup" on the group tumblr blog.

"PuraChallenge" is an ongoing activity in which a member will be challenged to showcase her talents and challenge another member to do the same.

"PuraSinging" is another ongoing activity for the group, in which one member will "produce" another member by selecting a song for her to cover solo.

Along with most of their main musical releases, they have traditionally released video messages or PVs to go along with the release's theme, such as holiday messages or love confessions.

Starting from spring 2017, they have also been doing "PuraStreaming" via SHOWROOM. These include solo streams by members doing talk shows or showing off talents, as well as karaoke specials with multiple members.

## Trivia

* The second mini-album "Cherry Blossom Season" was fan-produced. The members of Platinum Happy each selected potential group and subunit songs which fans voted on, as well as which members would perform which subunit song.
* The group's name is often shortened to "Purappi."
* Platinum is the image color for the overall group. This is occasionally represented by silver, grey, or white by the members.
* Generation 2 was added to the group in August, 2015. They later debuted in December 2015 with the second cover single "Platinum Ambition"
* The fan base of the group is referred to "PlatiNation" and fans are called "PlatiNationals". The names were decided by a fan-based poll in October 2015.
* Dance covers have been done for Make It! (Alice, Calla, Eve), Happy Halloween (Alice, Astrid, Calla, Daisy, Mia, Tabitha), Youseitachi to Mahou no Sympyony (Alice, Cherry, Marin, Tabitha) and Happy Maker (Calla, Daisy, Mia, Willow), while Alice and Calla did a duet dance cover of Drop Pop Candy, which has not been covered vocally. They have also released pvs for Platinum de Somete and Elegant Girl.
* Out of the four subunit releases in the PuraLOVE mini-album, Platinum Generation (Astrid, Cora, Maple, Sadie) is the only one yet to release a PV.
