Country Girls Second Single Release

16 Jul

So with a very surprising exit of a fan favorite member, Shimamura Uta, just a month before the edited version of Country Girl’s new single: Hesitating Summer Time (tamerai summer time). (Information on the idol’s departure will be at the end of the post).

Hesitating Summer Time is a lighthearted single that really showcases the ‘pure’ personalities in Country Girls. What really surprised me was that Inaba Manaka was put in the center of the dance shot and not Momoko. I personally was expecting Country Girls to be a buffer on Momoko’s career and having the younger members just be singing back up dancers. I’m thoroughly glad that Tsunku is making use of the talent in the group and hopefully there will be more diversity in the future.

Here are the official costumes for Country Girls’ new release:

I’m expecting to see another Music Video added onto the spoiler that was added the other day just because these outfits was never used in the video for Summertime. I especially love the pictures of Chisaki because it’s different from the other’s poses and it really showcases her personality. I’m also interested in Mai’s outfit choice, it looks like she will be the Haruka of Country Girls. The link with the MV spoiler and the radio rip will be added below, if you enjoy what you see please support the idols and purchase an audio download or the physical copy once it is released!

(you may have to skip to :20 if video link isn’t working properly)

**The reason why Uta has left Country Girls was because of a contract issue between UFA and the Shimamura family.

Angerme Audition

11 Jul

So, this is going to be a short post for the moment and I wasn’t thinking about posting so early into the week and everything but, I feel like this important. While learning how to navigate the Hello Project website I found a really cool thing that I wasn’t expecting. Angerme is holding auditions for a new generation

I’m not really sure how I feel about this just because they just added new members not even a year ago and I’m still learning their names. But I’m thinking that this is also a good sign because it could show that AGM is growing as a group and is getting more popular after the name change. I’m just really hoping that Tsunku isn’t squeezing out all of the money he can get from them until they’re dried up.

Here is the link for the page I found about the audition if you want to check it out: http://angerme-audition.com/

Guess who’s back!

10 Jul

Hey guys, it’s been a few years, hasn’t it? I’ve matured some, went out of Hello! Project, went back into it, and so on. I’ve decided that H!P is still in my heart even after all of these years of vaguely following the groups. My favorite blogssince then have been shutting down one by one since then do I decided to try this blog up yet one more time. Maybe my followers from before will come, maybe nobody will see it. I’m just excited to become close with my favorite members again and being able to share information with other fans who may not have the time.
Well, I’m going to go around and gather credible websites to gather news from and then I will start posting. If you’re interested please comment or follow! I will also be updating the H!P Birthday page and hopefully make it more organized.

C-ute 21st Single Radio Rip Released

6 Mar

So, C-ute’s 21st single- Crazy Kanzen na Otona (A Crazy Perfect Adult) as been released! I’m quite surprised that C-ute is releasing yet another single with Kono Machi still being pretty new. Then again, all of H!P seems to be releasing right now…

This is clearly more of a Dance-Club song which is great saying that their last single was a ballad. It’s pretty forgettable in my opinion since the instrumental is pretty mediocre. So, I’m pretty excited to see if this sells well or not. This seems to be mostly Airi but, I’m hearing quite a bit of Nakky and Mai.

 

Though this doesn’t sound like a C-ute perfection single compared to what they’ve been releasing lately; hopefully this sells as well as their past ones! The release date is set for 4-3-13.

 

I’m SO Sorry Guys!

6 Mar

Hey everybody, it’s me again. I’m really sorry that I haven’t been here in well, forever. However, I’m finding more free time in my schedule and plan on start this blog up again! Starting with a quick updating of the H!P Birthday page! So, please come back weekly to check for my point of view on MV’s, members etc. I may not be the best but, I really hope that I have one or two people that will still listen to my useless rants to Tsunku! Thank you~!

S/mileage’s Suki yo, Junjou Hankouki Radio Rip!

27 Jul

 

FINALLY! The next S/mileage single! ^.^ So, the song’s verses really reminds me of C-ute’s Kirai de Kirai de Kirai~. But, once the chorus kicks in, it has it’s own cute, stylish and cool feel to it! I really love this because it does show a face of S/mileage. And, I have to say this. Meimi sounds beautiful in this! I never heard her voice like this. Whatever she’s doing, she should do way more often! 😀 Also, I love how the ‘Back-Girls’ get lines too! (Rina and Kana) Although, the lines seem very….choppy. >.<

 

Anyways, I’m over excited to see the MV for this! I’m expecting a LOT from this single! Congrats S/mileage~! ^.^

>.<

25 Jul

SO SORRY! Sorry that I was inactive for a while! My stupid Violin Instructor put me through living hell this week. T-T (Not to mention that I have Music Camp in about 2 weeks! And, Summer Homework T-T) Anyways, the rest of the Summer is going to be unpredictable so bear with me~! >< I’m back to posting and, working on updates for the site!

S/mileage’s New Profile Pictures!

20 Jul

The new Profile Pictures have been put out! And, with it being a S/mileage I’m SO excited for this! I’m going to de solo reviews for this though since every outfit is the same. :/

So far, I’m loving this single! First of all, the style of it all. These outfits, even though they are the same for each member, are beyond perfect. The skirts and the hat show to cute-sy side of S/mileage. Which we all know, is what bulids S/mileage. Then there the accessories, patches on the jackets and the style of the dress itself, show the cool image of this song! The dresses are perfect, the members are perfect^^ and the poses are perfect for this single! I have no complanits~ 😀

Berryz Kobo & C-ute Spring Concert DVDs & Blu-Ray Covers!

19 Jul

So~ the covers for teh C-ute conert and the Berryz Kobo concert have been relased!

Berryz:

The most obvious part about this cover is that it shows the members singing. (Of course) But, what I really like about that point is that it shows some members with each other rather than just solo pictures. Which, gives the cover a more friendly and fun look to it! But, what I don’t like is the Over-Sized title on it. I think that the Title would of looked so~ much better if they put it in the center area. Instead of on top of the members faces.

What I don’t really get about this cover is the theme/logo. The logo just looks way too much like MSNBC (<–) to me! I guess that’s where the whole station thing comes from? I’m not sure, if you have any idea where the heck they got that from please leave it in the comments! 😀

C-ute:

Even though this picture is really small, there’s still a lot to look at. The main point that I love about this is that the Title isn’t too big nor is it too small! It’s the perfect size to be noticeable but, still give the Members the spotlight. And the only other thing that I can think about pointing out is how much it focuses on the 70’s. With the Title style, Logo and Outfits it’s clear that that’s the main theme~! ^.^
