Costume
Inspired by Marching Bands, their first original costume consisted of a white top and skirt for three members, while Kaoru wore pants and Hagumi chose black pumpkin pants. A red vest with gold and black detail is worn over this with three chains attached at the middle. The black and gold collar accents the fringed shoulder-pads, wrist accessories, thigh-length boots, and marching hats.

Their second band uniforms have been inspired by the Circus, with a red, white, and black top with gold detail and five pom-poms sewn down the center, coming in the band members colors. Sticking out of the bottom from this is ruffled, layered light blue and white fabric with the same pom-poms in various sizes, worn with a pair of black short-shorts. While Hagumi and Kokoro have black shoulder straps and ruffled sleeves beneath the shoulder, Kanon wears a white blouse with her dress. They also have a polka-dot bow on their neck and blue earrings. Kaoru and Michelle wear a male variant of this outfit, including a jacket and pants. Each member wears the same black, white, and red shoes with curved heel and pom-poms sewn to the toe in her own color, along with a black and gold top hat with Hello Happy World! and a smiley face drawn on it, and a red ribbon wrapped around the middle.

Trivia

 * This is so far the only band that have songs with different genres, from Big Band (Goka! Gokai!? Phantom Thief!) to Hip Hop (Sekai Nobbinobi Treasure!).
 * Kanon was the only member who could play her instrument prior to forming HHW. Hagumi had some experience with guitar which made learning bass easier, while the others had no experience.
 * Their catchphrase is Happy, Lucky, Smile, Yay~! (Happy, Lucky, Smile, Hooray~! in the localization), which is also shortened to HLSY.
 * Kaoru and Misaki have both appeared in Episode 3 - I Ran Away! as guests in SPACE.
