[Morning Musume] Hello! Project Official Platinum 12 Thread

[Mirai Noah]

Nice that Yuki's finally getting an album!

[RyRyMini]

The final 25 for the 3, 2, 1 Breakin' Out are out! And I have to say, some of them are horrible! And only 2 of them are from the US, 2 from Canada! Most are from Japan with a few other countries scattered in.

I wonder who will have the lead in Nanchatte Renai? Hopefully not Koharu since she's in the middle of the cover. Probably Ai like usual.

[Namie♡TOP SECRET]

They are going to release their 40th single on August 12th!!!!!
CAN'T WAIT
Is that it's name Nanchatte Renai?
I the cover. It is very simple and pretty.

Guys, omgggg.

Yesterday was their AX Concert. I got to see Morning Musume LIVE. It was amaaaaazing!!!!!!!

I can't even describe it, really. I was feeling kind of self-concious at first, but once the first song started playing (Mikan!) I was up on my feet and didn't sit at all XD I was singing and dancing and waving my glowsticks like crazy, it was an amazing time. I even got Koharu to wave to me at one point!!! X3

I'm such an avid concert-watcher, it was amazing to be in one! To be able to do the The Peace dance or the Love Machine moves! Ahhh! It was so incredible. Mark my words - once you've heard a song live, you will never hear it the same way again! One of the best experiences of my life, easily.

that's so nice I wish I was there!!

[Mr. Goto]

that sounds amazing neko glad you had a good time did you take any pics?

[milky_way]

I'm glad you had fun, Neko

[paperitahra]

I'm so jealous! It must have been AWESOME!!

[visionfactory]

ºC-ute is releasing her own best album ºC-ute Best 1 and it comes with new versions of their old songs!!

I hope Kanna doesn't miss this release too :/ she HAS to sing on the new Massara Blue Jeans!!

[milky_way]

I don't see why they can't let her sing on the singles that she's missing even if she can't promote them. What's she supposed to do when she comes back?

[Mirai Noah]

As I said previously, I couldn't make it to the concert, but I did go to their panel. I was sitting in the front row in front of Ai. It was so awesome! Aika waved to me personally at one point. Unfortunately, no photos were allowed. And I was pissed that I didn't get their autographs. I was too far back in line.

Someone managed to sneak a video of Morning Musume coming across the stage at their panel. You can see me in the video too! Eight seconds into the video you are can see me sit up. I was cosplaying at the time, so I have my brunette wig on, pulled into a ponytail, and I'm wearing black with two red stripes going down the back. Then a Reina fan covers me up, LOL.

[Mr. Goto]

new members of mini moni, pucchi, v-u-den, etc. announced

http://community.livejournal.com/ara...82.html#cutid1

what do you guys think?

[paperitahra]

^ Hmm. I really like how ZYX-a and the new Tanpopo are made, but Zoku v-u-den and the new Aa! are kinda... well, I dunno about those. It just might be becouse I LOVED v-u-den and Aa! form before so much<3 It's kinda sad that they left our Reina from Aa! But I think these groups are gonna turn out to be better than we expect!

...Oh and hey guys, have you heard the radio rip of Morning Musume's Nanchatte Ren'ai? I think it's on youtube too by now!
I'm SO EXCITED! It sounds awesome with Koha's solo lines and the rap part and the piano in the beginning and EVERYTHING! I can't wait to hear it better quality!

[RyRyMini]

Nanchatte Renai is awesome =3! I'm uploading the rip and I'll edit it in. Sayu has some nice lines <3..but Jun/Lin barely got any! I don't think Koharu sounds good at all xDD

Edit: Radio rip for anyone who wants it; http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dinlwtmjizz

Edit 2: Chaaa, Sayu & Risako are in new v-u-den! I guess Junjun is good too.

The new single sounds good. I really like the chorus.

MoMusu at Anime Expo was awesome! The concert was uber exciting. I was also lucky enough to secure a ticket to the guaranteed autograph session. My interactions with the girls were fun. Aika was especially cute in person. I got Yossie's autograph, as well.

[milky_way]

Thanks for the rip, RyRy!!

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I did karaoke recently and sang a bunch of old morning musume songs with my japanese friends and it was so much fun! They kept talking about the memories they have with the songs hahaha because they were in elementary/middle school when songs like the peace, love machine, love revolution 21, etc. came out xD

It made me want to go re-download momusu things xDDD

Gah, you are so lucky! I only had a ticket from the panel. When I got to the dealer's room, the guaranteed autograph tickets were gone. And I'm still really pissed about not getting their autographs....at least I was in the front row at the panel...

I love the new single!

I like the new lines up for Vi-yu-den and Tanpopo. I'm pissed Reina's no longer in Aa!

Oh, yeah, the reason that the new groups have the old names is because they are going to cover some of the old songs. This is what Tsunku said at his panel at AX.

[RyRyMini]

Well, they don't have the exact old names..they're all kind of variations. (Shin Minimoni, Pucchimoni V, etc..)

But clearly it's for the songs, plus it'd be kind of dumb to just cook up mass subgroups all at once..but it's happened before. xD

Also, in news, Kanna from C-ute is out of H!P for good now =o

[visionfactory]

I can't believe Kanna is gone, she was one of my favorites along with Megumi.. I wonder what was the real reason behind Kanna's quit..
