After seeing what the Hello!Station had shown of the MV, I know what makes this whole single so bad for me.   Any particular piece of this puzzle is not horrible. Together, they are not horrible .    But they are not likable. At all. Of course there will be some people who will say "This is the...

I remember seeing this video years ago.... Buono Momoko is the best Momoko, in my opinion. I was a huge fan of her then, but I couldn't even stand to listen to her performances in this concert or in the 2013 summer concert. Just not for me anymore =/

[quote="Shoujo Q"] What you were seeing was experience and then watching it slowly as it went away. It was really interesting to watch Sayumi and Risa especially as they slowly lost their presence in the group.    And another video. I assume this is from the JMelo live? It's like a non sto...

It's amazing the charm and aura that the performances even before (well, technically after, in the video) Renai Hunter had. Something about multiple seniors in a performance can really change it all! Not sure if just nostalgia or if there's an actual difference? XD

I just don't get how Tsunku says she will be a great singer for the group in the future...? Thanks a bunch for providing the link, though :3

I think Chinami looks pretty 80s with her print skirt and plain top, and Maasa's vest looks a bit 80's-ish, but otherwise you're right, it IS quite a hot mess! I just don't think there's a running theme throughout any of it.... Unless it needs to be explained or something.

It looks like the set from Do it Now! with some bar lights added. Also, sure it looks okay, but the backdrop totally doesn't match the 80's theme? hahaha

Well, I guess maybe she was thinking "why play a game everyone wins?" and then she may have gotten more frustrated as Riho and Sayumi were chosen to face off, but then both win anyway, so what's the point? Why waste time with it? Then she told him to stop laughing at her. Some of the other...

Kudo.... noooooo why. Here are the pictures in question:   https://24.media.tumblr.com/72c2ec19af0b9da9609f7df1d9dc2d9d/tumblr_n00f28tymG1qzegu6o5_1280.png https://24.media.tumblr.com/168df291821a9a108e82e7b0f52c8643/tumblr_n00f28tymG1qzegu6o6_1280.png https://24.media.tumblr.com/d54bc510de38b09791a...

Something about Yaguchi.
 
 
Part of me can't believe Tsunku uttered her name O_O Did he say something about even adding her back in? hahaha

[quote="Miss Moonlight"]
The title of Mizuki's last entry is ぬぬぬ…かーらーの
 
Can anyone tell me what that means?
[/quote]
 
From what I looked up, かーらーの Is curler.... But nununu? I'm not sure. Unless she meant "new". But it seems like she's just using it as a little noise, maybe? =o

I definitely wouldn't mind seeing more of Erina on TV appareances, but if she could do a different skit, that'd be nice too :3

[quote="Thea"]
He actually doesn't have a very noticeable accent, though.
[/quote]
 
Really? It sounds pretty foreign to me, I guess.... I feel like my teachers had a more normal speech pattern than this =o
But I'm not saying you're wrong :3

Ikuta, Iikubo, Ishida on J-POP ranking .... Somehow, it's embarrassing to listen to the girls talk to a foreigner with an accent. I know he's speaking correctly it just obviously feels off.   Why do I feel like this has already been posted? Sorry if it has... I hope I'm not repeating two links now ...

Personally, I think the whole Eripon using magic and Riho dancing on all the talk shows is getting boring... Let's see some of the other girls. Sayumi's photo-taking skills was cute, though hahaha. I prefer Kimi no Kawari's lives over Egao's lives....

I've usually seen those described as
Doll bangs
Straight bangs
Straight-across bangs
 
If it's just the bangs you're referring to :3

Thanks for the update-- This concert has been going on longer than I thought it would. I had forgotten the dates, soo XD
 
So basically you should've gone to 1/25's concert if you like high, nasally voices? ;)  (Is Maa-chan's voice counted as nasally? It sounds that way to me...)

I actually think Harunan did a great job with the outfits.... Looks like the pulled a little slip with the Risako bunny ears and Chisato skirt. Not sure if Harunan did all of the designing herself, but if so some of the concert stylists should consult her, maybe?

Found this today and it's just crazy in my mind to see how much they've changed. I had been following Mano when they were still her back-up dancers, and I had listened to S/Mileage's early releases.... I then kind of dropped out of the idol scene. When I came back they suddenly had new girls in Tach...

Kimi no Kawari immediately got my vote. While it may seem like I was ragging on it, I actually think it's a great song. I can't personally find many faults within the song, tempo, etc. The dance seems fun and it's one I just kinda automatically end up doing when I'm alone. The girls looks fierce as ...

Those lights matched with the camera technique is horrible! I can't even see their faces, I feel like I'm getting mind-gamed! I just really don't like the editing D':

[quote="Shoujo Q"] Sharing the Zip News segment because the ending is too cute.  [/quote]   You mean how Tsunku did Zip along with it? I know, it was totally kawaii >////<   Anyway, that actually was a cute little dance they did at the end, there. Good choice of the girls who went to the a...

For some who may not understand Japanese, I just thought I'd put a few interesting bits of what Ayumi said. (Feel free to correct me if I translated wrong--sorry!)   Ayumin said she wants to try gymnastics, like how Erina can do a handspring. She thinks she can do it, because she's small She's amaze...

I actually LOVE the way Haruka's hair is styled... I get a real almost early 2000's/"dark" image, but with her beautiful face. I can't get enough of her picture! She truly is an important visual in the group :3

Do you guys do "debate" threads?? If so, I think this topic would be good. Not sure how many replies about this it takes until it could be its own thread...??

Does anyone else think the Hello Station Youtube icon looks like some kind of ad for jeans??
 

Spoiler: [+]

 
Or is it just me??

[quote="Farrah"] I don't get how this song is about a boy, LOL? 99% of the lyrics are about believing in yourself / working hard / making your loved ones proud.  There's a few iffy lines but it's hardly standard "when will senpai notice me~" idol lyrics. [/quote]   "His word...

Kanon^2's The Bigaku, since the Youtube link posted before is now gone.
 
Thanks Anderei for supplying Kanon's other song! :3
