So "Ten Made Nobore" is counting as Kenshuusei's 2nd single, and JJ's 3rd single... It's being called "Hello Pro Kenshuusei feat. Juice=Juice" I wanted another cool JJ song, not a generic album song for their 3rd single...
Yeah, it does sound a bit like album filler, sadly.
This would be far more interesting with at least some switching between solo and group lines, but big group sound for the whole song just makes it sound like an elementary school concert. Maybe it will work better in the recorded version. I like the brightness of the last verse.
Delivering bad puns and deciphering Tsunku's madness for ten whole years!
Compared with J=J's first two singles, this one kinda blows. I'm happy that the Eggs have another single, though, so I'm not really sure how I feel about it yet.
JuicyJ are getting their own version of this single minus the K!eggs. Not sure if it will use the same instrumental or not. I'll wait to pass judgement once I see a MV.
This is a place where a signature goes. Enjoy some Airi instead.

Wow you can really hear the difference in JJ and KKS's level of singing! Even though JJ is in the other one too they just blend in.
They divided it properly with solo and group parts. I like this song more now!

Wah, the JJ version was already removed. :(</blockquote>
It's the same as the one at the end of the documentary.
Vocally J=J are leagues ahead of all the other H!P groups which is... in a weird way kinda refreshing(?)
Even Akari who I thought was going to be the cute but vocally weak member sounds significantly better on this single, whereas Yuka seems to have stood still and surprisingly finds herself dead last in terms of singing ability right now.
Also, does anyone else think Sayuki has lost weight? she wasn't big before at all but she certainly seems to have lost a little of that roundness she had in her face.
When this group was made I was 100% sure it was going to be Karin and the other five but wow have my expectations been met and then some, Tomoko has almost come out of nowhere to be the universally accepted number one of the group, not that she's necessarily "better" than Karin but she certainly has that certain something about her that people are attracted to.

I think it is Tomoko's voice. Also, she looks a little bit like Maimi, I think.
I like Karin a lot, and I'm glad she's in a group. I'm also glad she is in a group where she isn't the be-all end-all. I think this group is a pretty strong lineup.
But I notice some girls aren't there... Nanamin, Murotan, and Kurumin, maybe more? and the new girls aren't there. But they're on the cover so I don't know if they'll be in it or not...
It would make sense if they have 2 separately filmed dance shots with 2 groups since there are so many girls though, and just showed the JJ one.
EDIT: Kaga was also not in this shot... maybe...they are...the new kenshuusei group!? :D Or im getting ahead of myself... heheheh
