Berryz new album sucks, compared to C-ute new album, which is better.
Track 5 from C-ute new album is beyond amazing.

Just sharing these two

Nice performance by ManoEri

according to generasia

Niigaki Risa Commemorative Edition Tracklist

Renai Hunter (恋愛ハンター)
Watashi ga Ite, Kimi ga Iru (私がいて,　君がいる)
Egao ni Namida ~THANK YOU! DEAR MY FRIENDS~ (original: Matsuura Aya)
Renai Hunter (Instrumental)

... seriously? Egao ni Namida again? she already did that cover. why this? i hope this is not the real tracklist.

[visionfactory]

It's so sad they gave Ai an original song and Gakki didn't plus I'm sick of Egao ni Namida covers

[*Petit*]

The new single is freakin' awesome! I haven't liked a MM a side this much since renchatte renai. I actually almost stopped following the entire H!P due to the lacking new material.. =/...

tamaka sounds just like ai in the first few solo lines.



Donna bamen demo nigenai
Tachiba nante no wa kankei nai
Koi no TAIMINGU wo nogasanai　
Keisan nante no wo shinai

SOOOOOO catchy!!!!

:clap clap

[XFER]

Renai Hunter is EPIC!!! <3

[mellody]

What manner of witchcraft be upon us?



Seriously, this is amazing, brilliant, and genius.
This is the reason why I still respect Tsunku in any way, even though I'm sure that this kind of thing won't grab any attention.

Wow! Hurray for graduation single but then seems like they really rushed it just for the fans. Which means also lack of promotion.

[Nu-NRG]

Mitsui Aika to graduate from Morning Musume. on 5/18

http://www.helloproject.com/news/1205041300_musume.html

>>>I am so pissed right now..they lost another good member and I feel like they just tagged her along with Risa's graduation ;.;

[SunshineSlayer]

^ Wow, I can't say I'm that surprised actually. She hasn't even really performed with the group in like a year or so. I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner if anything.

[mellody]

The saddest and most disappointing thing from this news is:
Aika graduating same day as Risa. Risa deserves her own graduation. I won't complain if she's graduating with Ai.

Why Gaki never had her personal spotlight?
She always got something, overshadowed by anything...

Anyway, I'm kinda sad with Aika, she must be so sad as well right now, she's not even my favorite member but still...

[Mirai Noah]

As I wrote on another forum, I was really hoping that one day her foot would be better and that she could be an active member again. While she was never my top favorite, I grew to like her a lot and she was really nice at Anime Expo 2009. I actually wrote her a page for the fanbook given there because she had so few pages. At least she's staying in H!P.

As for combining her graduation concert with Gaki's, I wish that they could had separate graduations, or have announced Aika's at the same time as Gaki's or something. But it is what it is.

[jeffycue]

i wish they made it after risa's just to have a proper farewell to both members... 8th gen members are so shafted... im so disappointed with Tsunku how he handled the 8th gen.

i just wish Aika had another single with the members.. even a slow one so she could be in all the shots. oh well.

[visionfactory]

I wonder how the group will look with only 2 old members, Sayumi can't sing too much lines and I hope they don't give all the lines of the songs to Reina either.

I think Riho is even more popular than Sayumi and Reina now (Inside Momusu's fanbase) but I wonder which new member they will pick to give more spotlight to, I've seen Ayumi has potential but she can't sing very well. On the other side Haruka has potential too but she's so little.

Very likely I think Reina, Sayu, and Riho will be the ones to carry the group..given the remaining years left for the only two platinum era girls left.

Riho will be the new Ai and possibly Mizuki or Eripon or Haruka or Ayumi(whomever they decided to give the push) will be the new Reina that's after Reina/Sayu leaves..just the thought of that scares me a little because having Haruna as the new leader(if they go by age) or Mizuki(if they go by seniority)
