It's just a game. I'd love to see it. I rewatched the bakajo show a couple of days ago, it's so funny!

*waiting for single to be released*....

Morning Musume - Nanchatte Renai B-side "Aki Urara"
Full song, Cellphone Rip~ Be prepared to put your speakers up if you wanna hear it XD



Some people are praising it as one of the best Momusu songs ever and saying its better than Nanchatte. While it IS good, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with them...

It's kinda good, but not near as good as Nanchatte.

This version is good:

^ Thanks for the better quality rip

Since the news hasn't hit here yet, I guess I'll post it:

Quote:
Umeda Erika graduates from H!P
Another C-ute member leaving


Umeda Erika will graduate from Hello!Project, as announced today on the offical H!P site. The translated article follows:

Thank you for your continuous support of H!P.

Umeda Erika, a member of C-ute who just started their concert tour, will graduate from H!P on the last day of this tour, i.e 25th October.
After graduation, she plans to become a fashion model and pursue her studies in this field.
She plans to work even harder as a C-ute member in the upcoming 3 months until her graduation.
~From Hello!Online

......

5-nin C-ute? First Kanna, now Erika? Erika's been my absolute favourite member since I first saw C-ute perform, she was underused in the group but a real gem nonetheless. Whenever Momusu graduates a member, it's usually once they've had a good run and have had time to shine and become well known as an individual. Some of the other groups, I find, don't have this luxury. I hate to say it but Erika was more or less a back-up dancer in the past few singles, and I find it really stinging that she'll be leaving without really getting that chance to "shine". Of course, at the same time, with treatment like she's been getting, I don't blame her for leaving x___x;

Best of luck, Umechan.

Erika was the first girl I noticed from H!P KIDS, I really wanted to see more of her in C-ute.. I wonder if she will be on new album and single

^ She'll be at the Fall C-ute tour, but I think that's the final thing she's doing with the group. T__T I wonder if they're gonna recruit some more girls into C-ute or really leave it as a 5-nin... or just get rid of the last 3 girls and make it an Airi-Maimi duo! Which is what it's starting to look like ~__~

They need to start giving the other girls lines. Like Tsunku finally did with Berryz Koubou.

All those songs are AWESOME. I was pretty disappointed with Summer party, hopefully this makes up for it

I wonder how much "modeling" work Erika can get =\. Can't say I blame her for leaving, she and 3 others are just Airi & Maimi's backup dancers.

I think predictions that there will be more lines for the girls to share is kind of unrealistic... I mean, Erika and Kanna were pretty much the lowest priority when it came to getting solo lines, I hate to say this but their leaving isn't going to have much of an impact on many of the C-ute songs. The dances for some might have to change, but the songs themselves will most likely sound the same as Kanna and Erika were just... really insignificant in that degree x___x;

Also, the promotion for Nanchatte Renai has been insane. I love Ayu and would hate to see her streak die but... Jeez, after all this work Momusu's doing, I'm going to be quite frank and say that they deserve the #1 over Ayu.

I compiled a list of all the promotion/TV appearances/whatever else that they've done (taken from Hello!Online Twitter), and I'm probably missing some, but this alone is a HUGE amount of Promotion for ANY J-pop singer, ESPECIALLY Momusu who barely promotes their singles.

Spoiler:
- on 8/14, Morning Musume will be promoting their new single on a show called "Mu Jack"
- on 8/12, Kamei, Mitsui, Koharu, and Junjun will be on a NTV show called "Bear's Room"
- more Morning Musume Nanchatte Renai tv promotion : on 8/11, They will be on SWEET DEN OF PREMIERE show
- Sayu will be on Himitsu no Kenmin show 8/20, her second appearance. Sayu will be a guest on Gokigenyou, 8/20 and 8/21
- on 8/15, Mitsui and Ai-chan will be on a radio show for Lakeside FM called "Happy Mania"
- the members that will be on the talk show Oto no Moto, 8/13 will be Junjun, Sayumi, Reina, and Aichan
- Aichan and Gaki were guests today on show called Yo~i Don!
- Tanaka Reina and Koharu will be on a show called "Nachikoraru Gakuen" 8/20 and 8/27 two episodes
- Morning Musume will be on Music Station 8/14
- on 8/15, Morning Musume will be guests on FM FUJI radio show "GEKIDAN SAMBA CARNIVAL"
- the members scheduled to appear on "FUJIWARA no Arigatai to Omoii!" show on 8/8 are Junjun, Sayumi, and Kamei
- HYPER HOBBY magazine : Michishige Sayumi to appear
- on 8/8, MM will be guests on FUJIWARA no Arigatai to Omoii! show. on 8/9, Sayu and JJ will be on Yaguchi's Ame radio
- MM performs new single Nanchatte Renai during the day, while supporting Yaguchi's12 hour race on FNS 26-hour special.
- Morning Musume will perform + talk on MelodiX! 8/22
- Linlin and Ai-chan will be guests on Pop-Up Japan radio show.
- MoMusu made an appearance on the eve of FNS 26 TV 2009 Hexagon Family SP.
- Aichan and Sayumi are promoting "The Television Magazine x Morning Musume 40th single"
- NHK Latest Hits Wednesday J-POP show guest message from Morning Musume
- MoMusu looking beautiful in Kindai September 2009 magazine
- MM performs on NHK Latest Hits Wednesday J-POP Talk
- Sayumi's appearance on Waratte iitomo and London Hearts made an impact and shes been moving up on search rankings from Yahoo jp, google, etc
- Takahashi Ai is in Weekly ASCII magazine


Seriously, as much as I love Ayu, when has she done that for a single? Sunset/Sunrise has below average covers, barely any TV promotion or promotion in general, and yet It's still probably going to flatten Nanchatte x__x; It just makes me feel bad, 'cause its obvious who's been putting in more effort this time around.

It really isn't a prediction, it's more a hope, really. I think that Chisato can sing really well, and I was hoping that maybe one day she'll get more solo lines. I mean, I love Airi, and Maimi's great too, but I hope that the other girls of C-ute will get to shine too.

^ Same here Well... I don't have much love for Airi but Maimi = I've heard people praise Chisato's vocals, but I haven't heard too much from her so I can't say.

For anyone interested in winning an autographed Momusu photocard (member of your choice), please check out this page!! http://aewen.com/uploader/page.php?10

I do want Momusu to beat Ayu with all this promotion, but I don't think it's possible x_x

I watched it without subs when it first came out and I thought it was really good then. They're like a big happy family <3. The part when they showed all of them graduating was so sad =d

I downloaded the sub version but haven't watched yet for a better understanding...this reminds me to burn it quickly! =3!!

I'm trying to download Kizuna Restaurant as we speak

Also, Buono!'s new PV is out, and I actually love it. Does anyone have a PV rip of "Take it Easy!"? ><;
