^oh yeah right and Nono's new album too!

anyways, Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game covers are out!
http://www.helloproject.com/discogra...ume/s_049.html

they are better than i excepted lol. much better than KP's or SC's I think.
it's really hard to say which one is my favourite since they are so small, but limited B or C are looking the best...

I think they look too much like Berryz covers.....

So colorful :luv2

The covers are not too shabby, from what I can tell. Very colorful! :D

I actually like them. They're a lot nicer than what they've been cranking out lately, and even though the outfits don't match the song, they look good when presented like this.

Wow, colorful. Not feeling the outfits though but I like the concept... and all the color. XD

I like limited B, if the outfits were better the covers would be so much nicer.

The outfits surprised me. I thought they'd be white mini dresses for some reason. Despite that I actually like the covers and all the colors. The actual outfits not so much. without the colorful backgrounds they're really not much to look at are they? =(

^thanks!

Some performances from Summer Fankora have leaked now!
the DVD is out on 27th, just like Appare! Kaiten Zushi.

SEXY BOY ~Soyokaze no Yorisotte~ by Momusu :

Daite yo!PLEASE Go On by High-King :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PUYgatyzxE

Genki Pika Pika! by All
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qufhX6MNWiM

great performances so far!
the stage looks cool! though, I prefer the "stairs" stage in all member performances.

The preview of Shining Power! is out... but I barely have the heart to even post it. -____-

Oh gawd. This entire single is a disaster. Who decided to put those background pieces with those outfits? Like really?

The single covers for 女と男のララバイゲーム are pretty much ALL amazing. I'm sort of considering buying now, even though I never buy Momusu singles.

the covers looked like something berryz would do... i only like the version C.

btw, where is muten musume's single? huhuhuh. no leaks yet?

The full PV of Shining Power :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSNTBpxU7Pg

I mean really, WTF is that?!
terrible PV to be honest, just so bland and boring.
Why don't they make a PV like Tomodachi wa Tomodachi Nanda? It was really nice and high quality.

I just hope MoMusu's new single's PV won't be anything like that :no

Have there been previews of momusu's new single?

Not the sushi one, the one on nov. 17th? haha

Do you mean the song or PV? No PV yet, but they've been singing the song at Rival Survival.

So were the covers for Shining Power ever posted, because I don't remember ever seeing them?

^Nope, just the PV. Which now that I think about is weird, covers usually come before the PV.

Seriously, wtf are they doing with this release? It's like Maji Bomber completely threw them for a loop instead of being a learning experience. :shakehead

I love when they change for a new front girl :heart

Shining Power = Jurina
Munasawagi Scarlet = Momoko
All the rest (?) = Risako

^yeah, usually Berryz singles have Risako / Miyabi lead.

Summer Fankora DVD was released today, so the performances are in YouTube now, watch them if you don't buy the DVD itself.
http://www.youtube.com/user/sosrko#p/u

you can find all performances from that channel!

Muten Musume probably sold like 2 or 3k. :x

They came in at #6. =/ Meh, their fault for only having promo through sushi restaurants and no PV.

LOL wrong idol agency. XD

Not even worth the effort of dling and reuploading. Basically just go look at the past 3 singles covers, imagine them in the SP outfits and there you go.

MORE FRIENDS Covers:

those covers are so bad LOL. i'm pretty sure UF doesn't have a professional graphic artist...

tracklist for it

2. Gomen, Hanashitakatta Dake
3. Dare ni mo Iwanaide
4. Do Re Mi Fa Deshou?

9. Arashi no Mae no Candle
10. Haru no Arashi
11. Uchi e Kaerou -sad ver.-

^ Yeah the graphic work is terrible, at least there are lots of new songs unlike her first album.

I don't think this was posted before, ºC-ute's new halloween themed indie single "Akuma de Cute na Seishun Graffiti" (Diabolically Cute Youth Graffiti)

I posted the Sushi single if anyone wants it. ~

im obsessed with appare kaiten zushi! everybody got a line. such a nice song.. reminds me of the old momusu slash minimoni-ish style. hehehe.

Same here. I love the b-side as well. Perfect single was perfect.

A preview of Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game PV.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8T8Ceo7WVzI

the dance part maybe looks little but of Roman My Dear Boy's, but the pond/flower scenes are super awesome!
the dance isn't bad too, so far the PV is going to looks better than their last 3 single's PVs.

Ooo, the pond and flowers look nice!

lol I just noticed XD

Thanks!

I agree with Jeffycue, these are the type of songs I like from them. :yes I'm pretty down that they didn't release it as Momosu nor give it any type of promotion, it was pretty much a waste. :(

The new song sounds really good and the pond scenes did look really nice. :yes But this just made those outfits look even uglier, ugh and they have such pretty boots on too. :laugh

Full PV of Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ADcvfACpB8

although it's LQ you can see the most of it well.
I think it's a really succesful video!
maybe the white backround can be little boring, but the black padded room and the pond scenes are gorgeous!

They should have cut the fake pond and put them in the formal outfits in the black room. *__* Overall, I like it. It's better than both Seishun Collection & Onna ga.

WOW! << what a revelation. hahaha. i wonder who else had issues... hehehe.

Mari said that Nono and Aibon did not like her. I'll find and find the video...

Well at first Nakazawa Yuko disliked every member on Morning Musume, also Aya Matsuura disliked Abe Natsumi and Goto Maki too.

(And I knew something like that Miki had problems with Ai (?) or it was Rika which had problems with Ai? Don't remember very well~)

And this pic is simply beautiful :heart
http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/r.../beautiful.jpg

I think it was well known that Miki & Rika didn't like each other. I doubt they do even now but she wouldn't say that on TV. XD

i never knew any of these... except for the rumors of miki not liking aibon.

Found the clip with Mari talking about Nono and Aibon not liking her:



She doesn't call Aibon by name, but we know she's talking about....

THIS LITTLE SHRIMP IS ANNOYING!!! BWAHAHAHA!!!

where is the rest of the clip? did they all talk about the ones they didn't get along? im soooo curious!

"This little shrimp is so annoying"

"No kidding"

" I wondered: Why are they sending these to me?!"

:roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao

I always thought the "Troublesome Twins" getting on "Momma Mari's" nerves bit was part of the act but I'm not all that surprised that it was true. That cell phone story sounded a bit farfetched to me though but it was hilarious. *favs clips*

Morning Musume's Fantasy Juuichi! covers are out.
http://www.helloproject.com/discogra...ume/a_025.html

they're really small, so it's kinda hard to tell are they good or bad, but they seem really pretty!
same outfits in OtOnLG pv... I think they're infront of a dollhouse, so the poses match it? I don't know, they are too small!

Hmm, covers seem nice from what I can tell. :)

Yeah they are better than Lullaby Game's covers

Aitai Lonely Christmas TV-CM

Covers look cute from what I can tell. At least they're behind a piece of furniture and not in that stupid pond from the PV. lol

They could have at least bought new outfits. But if they did that there'd be like a 50% chance they'd be horrendous, so maybe it's good they stuck with the ones they already used.

Tsunku talks about AKB48 in his new book!? :shakehead

http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/entertainment/81996/

^lolwut?

Covers look good but yeah, bit disappointed that they re-used the PV outfits... should have just used those outfits instead of those hideous ones for the single's covers.

MOST BEAUTIFUL COVERS FROM A MORNING MUSUME ALBUM EVER :heart

http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/r...Imagen18-7.png

http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/r...Imagen19-6.png

The LE is so pretty. The RE background color could be better.

I swear, Lullaby Game is MM's best single in a while. So catchy~~ :heart

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geZu_9yINGc << Appare Kaiten Zushi! PV.. but its all animation.

anyone has the link 4 downloading Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game single...
thx...

is OtOnLG really flopping? huhuhu. saw it on jpopstop, tues #5 then wed #9? T_T

^not surprised really

It's back up, sort of. The estimated total is 31k. Amazing album song previews~

OMG Chisa is getting her 1st PB and this is the cover!! :heart :heart :heart :heart :heart

http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/Imagen71.png

I still remember when she was like this.....
http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/Imagen72.png

I disliked her so much! She was my least favorite member and now I love her, she's one of the best C-ute members for me!

I think I started liking her since Namida no Iro came out ^_^

Snap. She's my favorite C-ute member. <3

Captain's first PV/DVD was just announced for January too~

OMG the albums are selling so bad..... :no Ayaya is already out of the top 50

Mano Erina
39 / 18 / 17 / 35

Matsuura Aya
out / 34 / 47 / out

Neither of them were promoted at all, so I guess it's to be expected. Plus Mano's last album wasn't much of a prize either. And Aya's not in H!P anymore, so she undoubtedly has less fans because of it. I'm not trying to make excuses for why H!P is sinking though..xD..it's clear that the sales have been trending downward.

Though Momusu's album & C-ute's single are released tomorrow in Japan! Scared for the album sales..but I think C-ute will do well.

I might get Erina's album with the DVD, since I apparently appear in it for at least a second (during the movie premiere in LA). In the screencap I look very derpy though. >_<

^ Always when I'm watching some concert and I see a random face in the audience I think those people are so lucky!! You're so lucky!!

Derpy XD..well I'm sure there are a lot of fans who wish they got on the DVD.

Sudden question I got....
In this moment, is Tsuji Nozomi the most successful H!P graduate? :shakehead

^ i think its mari... she has a lot of hosting gigs. nono is more on blogs i think plus the books she do. maybe both of them.

anyway... Fantasy! Juuichi is at 12. it bombed! T_T

^ True, then it's.... Mari, Tsuji and Satoda Mai

I think those 3 are the most successful H!P graduate, Mari has always been in the spotlight but it's surprising how Tsuji and Satoda Mai's popularity died before they established themselves in the showbiz

edit:
I forgot about Goto Maki too!

mano's new album is so good OMG. surprised at how much i like the ballads

.... it's like being aboard a sinking ship. I thought AT LEAST Momosu's album would do good... -_____-

I shudder to think how S/mileage and Buono are going to sell. Of course, sells aren't what's important it's the quality of music but... it still hurts. ;__;

Is Buono even releasing anything?

^ New single in February.

Is it that Bamboo one? I thought it wasn't confirmed yet :shrug

ETA: Oh, never mind, I just read about it on JPM :D

I hope it's the Bamboo one, hehe I like that name. XD

A picture of 5nin Morning Musume leaked!!!

Is it supposed to be secret that they lost 3 members? It's not like they'll stay like that for long with the auditions coming up anyway... XD

Gonna miss JunJun, LinLin, and Eri, but the remaining girls look nice in that pic from what I can tell.

Uggh, no. DNW.

http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/r...uroso/risa.jpg

Riisa went blonde!! ......and am I seeing light colored contact lenses?

Whoa. :thud

O_________O

Ew. xD She didn't look blonde at the grad though. Pics from it ~

I'm going to miss them so much. :( :( :(

I would like to reintroduce myself. My name si Alex, and I was the biggest MM and H!P fan in my town. I went onto AKB48Mania. Now, I love H!P again. I am officially the biggest Tanpopo fan in the UK.

Welcome, Alex. :D Moonlight night is awesome.

Short ver. of Mano's new single: Seishun no Serenade



I've been replaying this a lot. Not really a Mano fan but I really like it.

@RyRyMini; Thank you, yes Moonlight night is amazing.
@Ranma Matsuri; OMG, thank you. This song is awesome.

Anybody else here like Chokkoto LOVE? Which one do u prefer? Pucchimoni or S/mileage?

I really like Erina's new song too! :D

I prefer the original Chokotto Love, but I like S/mileage's too. I think they messed up the new arrangement, otherwise I might like it better.

Had to share this. D:

Apparently Junjun & Linlin's parents are in Japan now, so they're probably leaving for good soon. :(

Nostalgia.

http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/r...so/morning.jpg

^ what's that?

^ Junjun, Linlin and Kamei Eri's latest Morning Musume concert.

^ Yeah, I'm sad that JunLin and Kamei graduated, but I understand why the latter did.

Do any of you guys like Afternoon Musume? The special group/ Their song is on iTunes.
I downloaded.

I like the unit, I don't like the song very much...

edit: OMG this is perfection "Seishun no Serenade" covers

They're gorgeous. :luv2 If this single keeps on like this, this could be my first Mano purchase. <3

Love the covers! :D

Berryz new single is titled: "Heroine ni Narou ka!" and will be released 3/2. As usual, it'll have four (pointless) editions + Single V.

Radio rip of S/mileage's new single: Shortcut



Was hoping for something different but it's not bad at all.

GUYS.

Starting in April, there's going to be an OG Concert Tour! Including everyone graduated from Momusu and still in UFA except for Konkon. =D!!!
