The Hello! Project unit Taiyo to Ciscomoon (also known as T&C Bomber) attended an in-store event at HMV in Shibuya, celebrating the recent release of their "Mega Best" album. This was their first appearance in front of fans since their breakup in October 2000.

Except for RuRu, who is overseas, the members of T&C - Atsuko Inaba, Miwa Kominato, and Miho Shinoda - shared stories from their past as well as their present circumstances, including topics being covered in their temporary blog that was started last year as a 10th anniversary project. The group also revealed that their cover of the Sharam Q song "Zurui Onna," which is included on the best album, was actually recorded a month before their debut in 1999.

RuRu briefly joined the event via phone from Shanghai, and they all discussed the possibility of a future reunion. The event ended with a surprise performance of their debut song, "Tsuki to Taiyo."
