Summer 2016

In the summer of 2016, Game Domain was more consistent than it ever was prior. Many crew members were in about 2 videos a week, and many videos were scripted. Also for a couple weeks, Crew Member Kyle did more videos than Alex. Game Domain also gained many subscribers in summer 2016, possibly due to the giveaways, and improved video quality. Summer 2016 was probably Game Domain's peak for 2016. There wasn't the biggest amount of subscribers, or views, but the consistently of crew members being in videos often, scripted videos, and discussions is really when Game Domain took a turn for the better, and to this day, the summer of 2016 for Game Domain is still known as a great moment in Game Domain history.

REAL FORCE

**REAL FORCE** was an all-female project group formed and managed by LDH.

They were a performance unit made up of Misaki and AYAKA from PARADISE GO!! GO!! and 3 more EXPG students.

## Members

* Misaki (vocalist)
* Stephanie (vocalist)
* AYAKA (performer)
* HARUNA (performer)
* Emika (stage name UNO, performer)

## History

### 2006-2009

At the end of 2006, a new performance group called "REAL FORCE" was created at EXPG. Two members of PARADISE GO!! GO!! joined their line-up with Misaki being one of the two vocalists and Ayaka becoming a performer. The group was completed with 3 more members: Stephanie as the second vocalist and HARUNA and UNO as performers.

While PARADISE GO!! GO!! became inactive, REAL FORCE started doing performances and different activities, until HIRO decided to focus on the two vocalists, Misaki and Stephanie, because he liked the chemistry they had together and the way their two voices blended in the harmonies they sung.

Inspired by the EXILE song titled *Love, Dream & Happiness* and with the idea of creating groups that would represent those three concepts, Misaki and Stephanie were chosen to form the vocal duo named Love. As a result, REAL FORCE disbanded.

## Trivia

* The group imitated EXILE’s first formation (2 vocalists and 3 performers)

LDH martial arts

**LDH martial arts Inc.** is a Japanese training gym operator and training business management company. This LDH subsidiary was established on September 27, 2017 and opened its training gym *EXFIGHT* on April 1, 2018.

The representative director and CEO of the subsidiary is Takaya Hiroyuki while Okami Yushin is involved as a director. Both are fighters managed by LDH.

## History

In November 2018 the *ENERGY PROJECT* which advertises different fitness supplies from LDH martial arts was introduced. The advertisements for this project features GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE members Shirahama Alan and Kazuhara Ryuto as well as E-girls (and Happiness) members Fujii Karen and Suda Anna. For those advertisements, GENERATIONS released the song "G-ENERGY" and E-girls "EG-ENERGY".

On March 3, 2021, it was announced that the company would establish a new project titled "Kakuto-ka Ikusei Project" (格闘家育成プロジェクト; *Martial Artist Cultivation Project*) to discover, train and support martial artists who want to become professionals. In addition, LDH artists would also participate in this project, with the goal of creating new martial arts entertainment and introducing Japanese fighters to the world. The second goal of this project would be to support the second careers of martial artists who have retired from the front lines by creating an environment where they can take on new challenges as instructors and event producers.

As part of the project, LDH held the audition program *Kakuto DREAMERS*. During the final episode on May 15, 2021, it was revealed that two participants, Nakamura Rinya and Usami Sho Patrick, were selected as winners and would sign a contract with LDH martial arts. Additionally, five fighters who did not pass were given tentative contracts and a second season of the audition program was announced, with the recruitment for participants starting on the same day.

The second season of *Kakuto DREAMERS* will start on February 5, 2022.

On April 24, 2022, a fusion of live performance and martial arts titled *POUND STORM*, will be held at Ryogoku Kokugikan.

## Trivia

* The fighters signed to the subsidiary are supported with housing, meals, physical training and supplements.
