Miyo's solo is GREAT. I really enjoy her tone. H!P really found a gem in her, she's good at everything.

^ It's crazy that the translation quality varies so heavily. Nippon no D•N•A! and Go Waist have some rough areas, but I thought the translation of Megane no Otokonoko was great. Very easily read, not really any shifty, awkward spots. Side note, the best UFP translations I've seen were Eric Fukusaki'...

Ultimately, it's light-hearted fun music by teen idols. I think you just have to go in with the mindset that it's meant to be fun and light-hearted. It's observational and humorous. If it comes across too seriously to you, maybe consider that it's meant to be satirical.

I'm pleasantly surprised I haven't seen any "Go Waist is fat shaming!" opinions so far, because I was really expecting to see it.

I'm obsessed. They put so much into this debut! The PVs are great, the music is great. I'm happy that the ONLY YOU girls got more of a feature in a song too, since they've pretty much been non-factors in everything that came before this.

^ I remember a lack of white glowsticks for for Yukiho as well, so there were a lot of teal. But now that we're in an era of LED penlights, IM@S makes official black ones for Makoto. They're just more of a dark gray. But then again, IM@S makes separate penlights for each girl, so it's very likely wh...

Mei was my favorite Hokkaido KSS. She has so much charisma and energy. Not to mention a rather stable singing voice, which says a lot for a KSS.

[quote="Farrah"] J=J and Angerme are definitely the H!P groups I would want to see live, given the choice.   That dress (or is it a two piece?) is kind of awkward / hideous, yet I feel like it suits Yuka's image perfectly, haha. [/quote] The lower half is a tearaway to reveal a short kimon...

Perhaps "Go Waist" is a reference to "go west, young man"? Curious to hear these songs lol. Also super happy that we're getting studio versions of ALMOST every song so far. I was secretly hoping for a studio recording of U.S.A. though.

I hate knowing that they likely get recorded with their original lineups only to never see the light of day. The '15 Wakacchanai on the MM Best album was a nice addition, but I also felt like "they sat on this for 4 years!?" Country Girls' Kiss Yori has 3 recorded versions, one of which wa...

I'm thinking the same thing. When Country Girls announced Boogie Woogie LOVE as a triple A-side single, I remember thinking Mousou Rehearsal and Kiss Yori Saki ni Dekiru Koto would be the other two A-sides. Lo and behold, they instead announced 2 as-of-yet unheard songs. It definitely would make sen...

https://youtu.be/7tPYXIk-IOs Oh No Ounou preview. Those spoken "oh nos" really make this difficult to enjoy. Haha

A good way to stay up to date is to check the front page of the H!P wikia every so often. You won't miss any releases that way (unless you want info about fanclub DVDs).

It's such a nice song, and I appreciate how much Sakurako we got. She has a pleasant tone, but she sings like she's afraid to hear her own voice. She needs to get over that so that we could one day hopefully get less Hamachan, lol.

9 new tracks is the same amount of new content one could expect in an album, if not more. I'm cool with it.

Miss Love Tantei is the jam, haha. I was all here for it, moreso than Robo Kiss.

That's a really best-of kind of title. That's a little concerning haha. Now I'm just expecting 3 discs of A-sides + I Musou Strong.

I enjoyed watching them do the acapella versions in their concerts, but how often does the excitement of that transfer to a CD? Also, Hama solo-ing over backing vocals, gag, haha.
