Ai no Morning Musume's 54th Single Thread!

[ShiroiChanUK]

Does Music Station stream online or do I have to watch it on KeyHole TV? :) Also is that 8PM (JST)? :)

[Anderei]

8PM JST, yeah, but I can't help you with how to watch it while it's airing.

This is interesting, it'll be nice if all of the members get one.

[ShiroiChanUK]

Well considering that MoMusu will be releasing a guidebook about the history of the current generation I assume this is some kind of promotion clip for it :)

[rallyleo]

Man... 8 days till release and no b-side rips?

How will I know which version to pre-order?!

[Banana]

It's up for pre-order on the Japanese iTunes (I haven't checked the other ones). Bouya's my favorite.

I just went with the ones that had the PVs and said to myself, just buy the group b-sides on iTunes. Win Win and I can dance slap happy along with the dance shots. 
 
Or just go with the cover you like best?
 
Or just wait till after it's all released, that is, if you don't want a poster.

Footage from the <a href="http://youtu.be/GV076Ft-V-s">Mezamashi Live </a>

[MejraThea]

I really like the sound of Makeru ki Shinai.
 
For those who either can't, don't know how, or are just too lazy to look on the japanese itunes:

Bouya sounds so good!

Thanks, because I don't have iTunes. I think I'll like Makeru ki Shinai once we get a full, better quality rip of it. Not feeling Bouya, and I'm not sure how I feel about the Funwari. I definitely need a full rip of it to pass judgement.
 
 

[momoirosaya]

Watching that Mezamashi footage, Sayu is the perfect leader for this new Musume generation.
 
I like how Makeru Ki ga Shinai sounds :D I feel like it will definitely getting played a lot.
Bouya too.
Ichinensei sounds like Old School H!P. Makes me think of Tanpopo's Yajirobee or whatever it's called.

[Melon]

I am satisfied with the b-side on the single I purchased.

[MejraThea]

Oh, Harunan's is up! Of the 'current MM' video thing.

[Shoujo Q]

<a href="http://youtu.be/R23X0ACVeBY">Links</a> are good. <3

[MejraThea]

Since I posted the first one's link, I thought it would be, I don't know, overkill for me to do the second as well? My apologies.

[showraniy]

Hm, I'm liking Makeru more than Bouya at this point, though Makeru's a little overproduced. No real judgement until full rips, but I don't dislike any of them so yay.

[Purin-chama]

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JoL6YNfXFw">Riho's is up.</a>
 
Also,I don't think anyone has posted what the messages say. They are kind of cool. Riho's is my favorite this far.

This promo would be so great if they used it for a NEW album.... instead, it seems they're setting the mood for the cover one. 

[tsukinobyouin]

Actually, in Japan Best Of albums tend to sell a lot better than new albums, so it benefits UFA to promote the upcoming album more than a standard new album. That said, I think this promo is more for the group in general, the new single, and that guidebook that's coming out in September. 

[Trinu]

I know, I know... but they talk about "not losing to the previous MM" and yet they milk the previous songs. Hello?! lol
 
The update album may turn out pretty good, though. Let's wait and see.

[NekoKaiSai]

Except the album is more like they're redefining classic MM songs as "WE right now are MM, these are OUR songs not 1st-5th gen's songs OUR songs."  Also, I agree with TnB about the promo.

[al kusanagi]

Neither the album or the single are mentioned in those adds. It's all about promoting the members themselves.

[andrewmarlin]

If anyone in interested the dance shots are up
 
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWJcaVePGEU">Wagamama</a> and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7jh5xbWcb0">Ai no Gundan</a>

[Purin-chama]

I was surprised with how much Kanon was in the front in Wagamama.

Harunas message made me sad. She really doesn't have that many fans out there does she… ????

I think she's talking more about how no one really knows who is in Morning Musume nowadays.

[Elpis]

Harunans not my favorite member but she is definitely far from least favorite.

[MejraThea]

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNhKy4yY ... saki</a>'s up, 8 mins ago!

[Elpis]

Masaki's is my favorite so far. Haruna's is a close second.
