Watching Maria sing is painful, mostly because of that vein in her neck. You can see how much strain there is and that constant straining is going to cause her problems later...

I'm really disappointed in Duu, she's constantly flat and does not sound pleasant at all. In addition to those her range is way too limited, she can't hit the high notes and her lower notes are nasal. It is such a pity, because I had hopes for her earlier, but now... She is just gradually getting wo...

Well, was not expecting something like that, but I, too, think it fits them nicely. I really like the song and I also enjoy the video. Kobushi keeps on getting better and better <3

To be honest, I am not that surprised, but I'm sad. She was one of my favourite members, and it's never nice to see your favourites go.
But yeah, it is truly the end of an era.

The first Morning Musume member to have a baby was Ishiguro Aya, her daughter was born in 2000.

Okay, I'll wait until the full PV is released to form my opinion, but from what I saw, it's really awkward. The song is plain okay, but there is nothing special about it. Because of that it is bland and forgettable. And the PV... well, like I said, it's awkward. I didn't know whether to laugh or fee...

Announced at the start of their fall tour ~MY VISION~

Yeeeeeesssss, finally! I've been waiting for this

Well, that is a reaaaaally long name...
 
I'm quite excited, they've been releasing good stuff, and I hope they keep it up.
 

Upcoming has footage of the girls recording KEEP ON.

I am not that surprised by this, but I do feel sad. It took me a while to start liking them, and now they're going to be gone.
 
Well, they had a good run and there is still almost a year left until they go, so I hope there will be a single or two and an album.

Ora wa Ninkimono PV is out

I'm not that impressed by her singing, but maybe she'll get better in time, so won't judge her just yet. But it will be interesting to see how she'll fit in.

Juice=Juice releasing their 8th single in September.

Yeah, was expecting this, but a part of me kept hoping for a talented generation.
On the other hand, seeing how lackluster 12th gen still is, I doubt we would've gotten anyone great from this audition anyway. Talent doesn't seem to be that high on their list when picking new girls.

Why does Kudo sound so unpleasant and nasal in that clip :/ I'll be disappointed if she keeps going that way, because she was better before

So, Kobushi Factory is going to release a new single in July.       <a class="bbc_url" href="http://www.helloproject.com/release/detail/EPCE-7227/" title="External link">http://www.helloproj...tail/EPCE-7227/</a>   <a class="bbc_url" href="http://ameblo.j...

IMHO the song is blah and I find the PV boring as well.

Here is the full PV. I'm really going to miss Meimi ;_;
