Becky Revealed Kaze no Shirabe

Yet again, another PV revealed and this time is from Becky's. She revealed her upcoming single's PV, the "Kaze no Shirabe"
 
I'm really in love with the music note producing jungle, then there's lyrics from it and Becky walks through the field. She describe the wind as music. I however don't like Becky's voice much as it sounds sharply nasally that it hurts my ear~ Sorry Becky~. Enjoy.

If you ask me, the male singer I want to marry is Inoo Kei of Hey!Say!JUMP while the female singer would be Sugaya Risako of Berryz Kobo! Kya~

BENI's Suki Dakara PV Revealed

I don't really know this BENI woman but she has good voice and nice song. She released her upcoming single's PV entitled Suki Dakara. It has nice camera playing, nice color and a very good PV! I really wish H!P would make this kind of PV in the future! The song tells about a woman who have a boyfriend. She feels the distance between them even though they're close together. She can sense the smell of break up. She asks the BF to look only at her. She waited for him at the promised place but he doesn't seems to come. She couldn't hate him and the reason that she stated is, "Suki Dakara" She wants to believe in him, she says she couldn't help it, "suki dakara" Enjoy it here.

Nishino Kana's "Thank You, Love" Cover


Remember the news about Nishino Kana's new album? She had revealed the cover! It didn't fit my image of the "Thank You, Love" and the cover is too common among celebrities... The red color, the outfit, the pose, the hair, just too common among each other... After all, I'll still look forward to it!

Me Releasing New Single

Koda Kumi's little sister, misono will release a Double-A side single under her new stage name, Me. The single entitled "HontoUso/SuKIrai" will be released on September. I really love this girl so I decide to wait for the single to be release!

Yet the other four girls... Aoi and Mao. I extremely love Mao! She is cute. Though not very high but still, I'm happy to see her in the Top26... Sadly Acchan is there too. I'm not sad because she is not high enough but because she is AKB and being there and beat my Ai-chan from Morning Musume is hard enough for me!

Berryz Kobo fired a Bullet of Lovein Happy Music

My Lovely Berryz Kobo Perform New Single!
 
Lol, overreaction right?
They performed their new single, Ai no Dangan at Happy Music.
I don't have the vid with me so find it yourselves ;p

Maeda Atsuko Did it Again!

I like Acchan the ace of AKB48... but since she is in AKB, every achievement she had will kill me.
 
Acchan will appear in An An, the adult magazine. Well, I laughed at it and swear to have a look into it! But the next word will definitely kill me! Acchan will be in 12 magazine cover for this month ONLY!
 
Huhu, let's cry with me!

Everlasting Female Idols!

Who is the most everlasting female idols? Let's discover something!
 
The ranking is divided into 4 phase... Let's start from the bottom!
 
[Who is the most everlasting female idol? – 40 Year Olds] [Who is the most everlasting female idol? – 30 Year Olds] [Who is the most everlasting female idol? – 20 Year Olds] [Who is the most everlasting female idol? - Total]Thus here, I'd like to state something, well in the total of course...
I'm happy to see Morning Musume topped the Top5 rank! This is a great news! Incridiblely unbelievable is Matsuura Aya topped the Top10 too and is yet another great achivement. However, in the moment of glory, that one phase with total of 3 words and 2 number had dissapoint me. I wonder why that name should exist when they had only been in the industry for 6 years.
 
Berryz Kobo has been in the industry for 7 years with only one loss of member and without anymore additional of members. That one stuff and fact had alreayd shown the strong feeling into Berryz.
 
I'm also dissapointed to see Ayaya's name come before AKB... but understandable as Ayaya is not much active like before...
 
Any of all, congrats!
10. Moritaka Chisato
10. Kawai Naoko
9. Matsuura Aya
8. AKB48
7. Pink Lady
6. Nakayama Miho
5. Nakamori Akina
4. Morning Musume
3. Koizumi Kyoko
2. Yamaguchi Momoe

Mika Todd Comeback!!

Remember Mika Todd, the old member of Mini Moni and Coconuts Musume? She is back to our eyes! She has grown up into beautiful lady!

AKB48 In Dome?

So so, again, AKB news... What now? Oh, concerts! AKB going to have their first ever dome concerts... Great news >.> Congrats Congrats >.> Luckily not a Tokyo Dome...

Mano Erina with Facebook?

C-ute had their official FB account and now is Mano Erina's turn... Okay, fine... when will Berryz Kobo's turn come?

Leave Jpop Alone!

I don't understand SNSD's fans. They keep on attacking other groups and I hate it. First Morning Musume vs SNSD. Then, AKB48 vs SNSD, next thing is S/mileage vs SNSD and all those doesn't get on my nerves much until they actually come right on my face and created Berryz Kobo vs SNSD. Long ago, when MM is the national idol, they compare with SNSD who is the national idol of Korea. Then it comes for AKB turns and the same things happen. Just by few moments, S/M stated they want to be like MM, AKB and SNSD, the SNSD fans fired out insultments when the fans of the other two groups didn't even say a words. Now, just when BK wears those tight suits, they jump to a conclusion that BK copied SNSD! BK has been using those kind of suits before SNSD even did!

Now, let's just shut our mouth and look into... Until when will they come and insult other groups...

S/mileage with fresher faces?

S/mileage is the group that I dislike the most to the contrary of their rival group, Tokyo Joshiryuu which I loves so much... Well well well, that is not the point of this entry today. TsunkuP had announced that he will hold an audition to find new member of S/mileage. Despite of being earlierly told that S/M isn't going to have fixed members, the members and the fans doesn't seems to be glad of it. Before the debut of S/M, TsunkuP had state clearly that he will have S/M members changed by times.
 
I don't quite like the face the members had when they're told there'll be new members in their group as if they've never heard of it before. With early siren from TsunkuP before S/M ship sails, the members should have been prepared mentally with such announcement. I'm dissapointed especially Kanon who kept shouting, "Lie! Lie! I don't like it!"
 
The decision isn't in her hands. She is too obvious and too loudspeaking. She should read the atmosphere and realizes from the start that new members will be added. Obviously she isn't listening from the start of her debut.
 
The audition will start from 4th June throughtout the month. At the same time, S/M's new single title has been released. It is entitled Uchouten Love which will be released on August 3rd. Watch the vid of the promotion and the moment Tsunku eagerly announce the news.

Nishino Kana says, "Thank You, Love"

I don't know much about Nishino Kana but she is releasing an album. A lot of people liking her so perhaps I could try to. The album was titled "Thank You, Love". Sounds relaxing.

AKB48's Everyday Kachuusha

I've just heard the AKB48's new single's song... Well, should I comment? Maybe I should... The reason why I SO don't like about AKB songs or if I'm to generalize the subject into Akimoto Yasushi's songs is the only difference between his songs are the music... The music differ in instrumental but the melody is freakingly in the same pattern... I really dislike listening to AKB-like song which sounds like... I don't know how should I put it into words.
 
The same reason with why I don't like Kpop songs of course... It just sounds to same or boring or rather, I don't know how to sing the song. I heard background singers sings more than they did. And also the same reason why I don't like western too.
 
And surely that is also the reason why I adore Tsunku as he is able to stick me into his world that his music never bored me. Also the same as Avex's.
 
Next is the PV, indeed I absolutely adore AKB with its gracious PVs play and yet, this time it bores me. Failed to express me anything, The PV is too same as Ponytail...
 
Now, leave all the words. Listen to AKB48's Everyday Kachuusha...

SKE48 into Avex?!

SKE48... huh? Dun like it! Anything related to 48... dun like it! Avex is my dear, She has been releasing those singers and idols that has huge qualities and now? SKE48 changed labels to Avex?! Come on! I don't know why! They definitely don't look like an Avex... Now, this is hugely a bad news for me! They will even perform in a-nation! They don't deserve the spot! At least as I SAY so... However, I'm really happy when they put Tokyo Joshiryuu as a higher leveled group. Perhaps because they're just the normal idol group while Joshiryuu is obviously artist-style idols...
Anyway, I just hate the name... I really love their singles, especially Gomen ne Summer and Banzai Venus... I can't wait for their next single release in July titled Pareo wa Emerald. It sounds so Banzai Venus-like. I can't wait to see how Avex will make the PV looks like. Avex had never dissapoint me in their PV-working!

Yui & Ryo Star in Comedy Romance Jdrama

Munya! Munya!
My fave actress, Aragaki Yui and the handsome boy, Nishikido Ryo would star in comedy romance drama! The drama called Zenkai Girl! The title itself sounds so genki! Let's look forward to it!

AAA Copy Makenai Kokoro into No Cry No More

I don't like it, I hate it! AAA version Korean? I don't mean a new Korean group looking like AAA but AAA's hairstyle reminds me of Kpop's artists! Dun like it! ESP the boys! They used to have those spiky hairs and side bang! or is it just me? I really hate Kpop boys' hairstyle, it looks ugly!
But that's not our point right now. Let's have a listen to AAA's No Cry No More's radio ripped!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLZqoxoMqIU
Nice nice song! but the chorus part is heavily identical to Makenai Kokoro's song's which is AAA's old song! Have a listen here,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrXBmpuikBM
 
Well, at least it was fine even if they copy it back as both songs are their songs... One thing I'd like to point at the radio ripped version is... when Mitsuhiro speak during the song is played, he sounds so much like rapping that I thought it was actually part of the song. Lol, too used with the rapping huh?

AKB48's Most Mentioned Member

Just the moment AKB48's 3rd Senbatsu Election result announced, BARKS had made survey on ordinary blogs to look for the most mentioned member of AKB48. The election was considered to be the die-hard fans result while this result are regarded as normal fans result. Let's have a peek at the TOP20!
 
1. Maeda Atsuko (73,420)
2. Oshima Yuko (71,389)
3. Itano Tomomi (52,559)
4. Shinoda Mariko (43,805)
5. Takahashi Minami (38,123)
6. Kashiwagi Yuki (35,677)
7. Kojima Haruna (35,046)
8. Watanabe Mayu (33,769)
9. Sashihara Rino (30,682)
10. Miyazawa Sae (26,899)
11. Minegishi Minami (23,670)
12. Akimoto Sayaka (23,097)
13. Kasai Tomomi (22,187)
14. Takajo Aki (20,401)
15. Matsui Rena (19,640)
16. Sato Amina (15,823)
17. Miyazaki Miho (13,771)
18. Kitahara Rie (12,336)
19. Matsui Jurina (11,591)
20. Nakagawa Haruka (11,394)

The results aren't really that far from the election one. Maeda Atsuko and Oshima Yuko seems to switch their places quite often. As what I've mentioned in previous post, Itano should deserve more spot as she released her solo singles this year and seems like in normal fans ranking, she do get her spot.

Chi-Mey, Orange Range, Kiror Team Up for a Single!

I don't know who Chi-Mey is but he along with Orange Range and Kiroro's Ayano going to release a single together! This gonna be exciting! I really can't wait to listen to their song!

AKB48's Senbatsu Election Result

The AKB48’s 3rd Senbatsu Election had ended and the ranking has been announced! Fans must buy AKB’s latest single, Everyday Kachuusha to vote for their fave girls (oshimen). Well, well, what we’ll get? I don’t like AKB much, not because they’re rival of H!P but because their songs are hugely not my type. Their songs have a lot of empty spaces and soft music and just… wrong in my tongue. So, let’s have a little peek at the rank. I’ll have only the Top20.
1. Oshima Yuko (17156)
2. Maeda Atsuko (16452)
3. Kashiwagi Yuki (12056)
4. Takahashi Minami (8633)
5. Watanabe Mayu (8582)
6. Shinoda Mariko (8016)
7. Sashihara Rino (7357)
8. Itano Tomomi (6596)
9. Matsui Rena (SKE48, 6559)
10. Kojima Haruna (6534)
11. Miyazawa Sae (5157)
12. Takajo Aki (5096)
13. Minegishi Minami (3931)
14. Kitahara Rie (3860)
15. Kasai Tomomi (3102)
16. Matsui Jurina (SKE48, 2843)
17. Yokoyama Yui (2753)
18. Sato Amina (2684)
19. Masuda Yuka (2201)
20. Kuramochi Asuka (1793)
So, let’s comment on each. Starts from No. 20.
Kuramochi Asuka. I don’t really know her… Maybe it is a good chance to get to know this girl.
Masuda Yuka. A yet another girl who I don’t really know…
Sato Amina. I’ve heard her name though I’ve never seen her pic yet. She is quite popular among fans so it is not weird to see her making into Top20.
Yokoyama Yui. This is the name I’ve never actually heard. Gonna look into it!
Matsui Jurina. A shocking surprise! I’ve never thought she’d be this low but still a good place since it’s not even far from Top10. SKE48’s center girl who have also been one of the most centered girl in AKB48’s PVs… Perhaps she don’t get enough attention last year. I know every each person above her which means I’ll be able to comment more. (Actually, why I show only Top20 is because I don’t know any girls under 20 ^^; )
Kasai Tomomi. I don’t like her. She has mole at a wrong place. Weird voice, weird expressions, weird in everything. She also has this kind of habit saying [Chu] which for me is very disgusting!
Kitahara Rie. Opposite of Kasai, I like KitaRie a lot. She has quiet face and cute smile. Calming indeed.
Minegishi Minami. I’m quite… hate this girl. She is just… too weird… same reason as Kasai. I dislike her attitude and such!
Takajo Aki. I don’t know her. Enough said.
Miyazawa Sae. This very cool yet genking member. I like her quite a lot…
Kojima Haruna. I like her because she is a HUGE Morning Musume fan and yet, I dislike her for acting cutesy despite of having mature and adult-like face!
Matsui Rena. The another half of 48 version of W along with Jurina. Surprised to see her in Top10 because she had never been in one. Kinda sad too because I like Jurina over her!
Itano Tomomi. I don’t quite understand why she seems to be declining despite of having two solo single released last year! Yet another half of Tomomi duo along with Kasai…
Sashihara Rino. I’m quite surprised to see her here as I’ve never expected her to be here, in Top10. The most talkative and what I like about her is… she is a BIG Morning Musume and H!P fan!
Shinoda Mariko. I started to like her when I saw her making twin tail with that very short hair of hers! Cute! Pity she has the kind of face I dislike!
Watanabe Mayu. Cyborg girl of AKB who rarely show any expression! Well, at least that’s what I’ve been heard! Dun like her!
Takahashi Minami. Takamina! She deserve her spot! Being one of the two most centered girl along with Atsuko since AKB are created!
Kashiwagi Yuki. Yes. The most huge surprise! This girl never manage to top the Top5 chart and she did this time. I like her because she looks like Yurina from Berryz Kobo!
Maeda Atsuko. The darling of AKB since their debut! She has been dethrone by Oshima Yuko since last year from her queen position but this girl keep her popularity! Nice, Acchan!
Oshima Yuko. The dimple girl. The only reason why I like her is because she has dimple! So cute! Her funny attitude is the huge reason why she is so popular! Congrats! Though kinda sad to not seen Acchan top the chart.

And so, that’s my comment! Nyahaha~

Funmon revealed half of their latest double A-side PV

Funky Monkey Baby, a cute band group! I really don’t know what to label this group. Are their rock? Are they pop? Or are they hip hop. Well, Japanese fans has been labeling them as a rock pop-ish hip hop group! I loved this group since the release of their single, Lovin’ Life. This is the PV, http://youtu.be/duNhdasv3I4 . While Chippoke na Yuuki is yet my most fave song from them! You can listen to it here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2oyZhn2i9E. It was a cute song that attracted me. Their lively performance had made me their fan since then! Their songs PVs are all contains sentimental feeling and nicely conveyed the emotion!
They did it again with their latest PV. Soredemo Shinjiteru tells a story about a high school boy who had to work in various jobs to support his family which not his mother but his pregnant girlfriend. He missed his time at school and all the fun moments. His teacher got all his friends to meet him at his house but he throw away all the school notes his teacher bought. Then his girlfriend tells him to follow his heart. He did. He chase the teacher back and ask for forgiveness. He learnt at night by the help of his teacher. Sometimes his friends will help him with his jobs. Then his girlfriend delivered. He is so happy and the last scene is he is shaking hands with his teacher after his graduation ceremony… The PV really got into me! And then again, the main boy is SOOOOOO HANDSOME! Enjoy it!
