[quote="Pi Kago"] Yuzu!   Peach is for sure going and has a room on hold. I'm going to trying to get Pumo as well since he's close to me in nearby Baltimore. Vanillacat is coming from the North Virginia area with me (barring that she does not get a job in Korea prior) along with of my loca...

[quote="strawberryjam"] Oh man. I let that slip. :ssh: For reals, I'm 16!   Anyways, sorry to hijack the thread for something completely fruitless.     AUDITIONSSSS! WOOOO [/quote]   Excuse me, there is one reason and one reason alone that you must audition.   Since next year is 2015, with...

The arranger of Triplet's song (Onishi Katsumi) worked on all of Maki's Avex albums.   TSUNODA takanori, who is credited for everything with the SatoNoAkari song, worked on a bunch of  Hangry & Angry's releases too. Interesting, he played at Otakon one year...     Is there anything clever to the...

[quote="Banana"] I'm just going to look at the glass half full and say that the time with all those b-sides was just a weird phase that doesn't count, and we now get double a-sides instead of just an a-side and a b-side like we used to.     <blockquote class="ipsBlockquote" data-...

He probably has enough songs left over. They had to make so many songs for the B-sides last year, I bet there a few more that got made but were never released. (hopefully not all rejects, more like, this would be better for later...)   Actually, since they just did the B-side album, it works out pre...

[quote="Anderei"] CDJapan charged me for the last S/mileage single over a month after it had already shipped and it put my bank account into the negative. Fuck them. [/quote]   While it sucks that they would wait so long, If one single can put you in the negative, the biggest concern shoul...

Man, disc 2 came from only 4 singles, and they didn't even all fit because Seishun Domannaka is on the 1st disc. We were so spoiled...
 

[quote="AquaChan"] Wow, love the design on the member's pages. (coming from a graphic designer XD) [/quote]     Yeah, it's pretty brilliant. They abstracted the kanji of the girls' names to the point that at first glance, it just looks like a random cool graphically striking pattern.  :cla...

In 2014...   No regular auditions, but they'll stick someone random in a main group/switch people around (to the fans' horror) USA gets a visit from MM and at least 1 other act. France gets something better. Sayumi stays put. Masaki gets groomed for graduation, where she will be in a new project tha...

Maybe this throat thing will distract him from any surprise graduation announcements for a while.   Also, What is Love? will have a dance shot version on the DVD, since the regular performance is a live concert, maybe they'll be in a different space for the dance shot...   I actually didn't mind the...

It starts out ok. After the intro, it sounds like the obligatory R&B song for their albums, but then the quick lyric parts kill the flow of the song. It all sounds like they are making it up as they go. I was also expecting an Ayumi rap at some point. I think they're saving the other song becaus...

Since it's a not so great quality magazine scan, the color combo might work better when seen in the actual PV.    About the name change, I don't think it'll last long, but I do think the purpose of it is for them to transition to a more drastic name change a little bit later. (seeing how people reac...

FACT: me too. 

What do you call a four member girl group by Kago?
 
Well, we all know that the most appropriate name is already taken. 
 
I'm excited for this, but I have no idea what kind of sound to expect.

I'm really excited for their new album. I really can't wait for this to come out. How much longer must we wait?  Oh, it's been out since the beginning of this month? Why don't we act like it....     01. Enter the Sphere: The website motion capture dancer song gets a full version. I like the random c...

Seems almost like Berryz's style of goofy.

Sayumi is saying "Umm... Don't you know who I AM?"
Haruka is channeling the Second Morning cover a bit.
Eripon is a yinyang.
Sakura is gassy again.

[quote="TnB"] I'm kind of disappointed in the remakes of the newer songs though. I feel like they mostly got made to sound more like all one song. Some of the things that originally gave them individuality seem to be less prominent. The lack of Reina wasn't as noticeable as I thought it wo...

From the backing vocals and overall tone, I'm guessing that the I Wish update was by AKIRA.   I'm not very impressed by the LOVE MACHINE remake.  I'm guessing that one was by Okubo.  :tongue: Well, I kinda like the breakdown, kinda.   I'm excited to hear what they do with Souda!

That guy near the right corner of the screen... his shirt is blocked off in a way that the text reads as
 
BOMB
Tokyo 

Fuck that B! There's nothing clever behind it, it's a completely amateur move. If they really needed to fill the space, they could have stuck a ☆ symbol in there.   The☆Best!   For a best album that did it right... the original Pucchi Best. <div> </div>     http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2534/571038...

[quote="Anderei"] A pop and lock country song? What the fuck does that mean. [/quote]   Tsunku just mashed more genres together in his head, but really it'll end up sounding like all of MM's recent stuff.  :tongue:   Those covers are fashionable as fuck. I don't even want to see the good q...

Because they do photocards for the fanclub and whatever else, there are likely to be many more photos from this shoot. Sometimes I wonder if they pick the bad photos on purpose to only highlight certain girls. I mean, Ishida has been extremely photogenic these days. We are only seeing her best side,...

This guy was probably about 20 when this was released. The synth sounds very much like a Perfume song.
