And that's because Janakya Mottainai is moving over to a new blog. You can read more about it there.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">Here's my new site url:</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://intlwota.com/janakyamottainai/"><span style="color: #274e13; font-size: x-large;">http://intlwota.com/janakyamottainai/</span></a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">So, come on over to my new blog if you want. And if you want to read my posts in the future please update your links. :D</span>AimxAimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16514552918333102832noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752751883893340898.post-78901881659379698462011-08-18T13:34:00.001-04:002011-08-18T13:38:36.034-04:00Blog hiatus<span style="color: magenta;">So, I woke up today and it said all of my bandwidth exceeded on photobucket. Now, I am completely horrible at computers, and had no idea what that even meant. And, after some googling, apparently there is no way to change this or to fix this unless I upgrade my photobucket to pro. And since I don't have a job, or even a bank account, I have absolutely no way to upgrade my account. So, that means I now have to resave and rehost ALL of my pictures on my blog to a site that has unlimited bandwidth. Which is approximately 3,020 images. 3,020! Obviously this is going to take me weeks, if not a month, to do. And I honestly am not looking forward to it at all.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">I am so completely upset right. Like on the verge of tears upset. (Whatever, I cry at the drop of a hat) So, yeah don't expect any kind of updates for a while.</span>AimxAimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16514552918333102832noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752751883893340898.post-14377726886667836582011-08-15T14:53:00.000-04:002011-08-15T14:53:55.216-04:00The happiest C-ute fan in the world<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/C-uteSekaiIchiHappyNaOnnaNoKo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/C-uteSekaiIchiHappyNaOnnaNoKo.jpg" width="302" /></a></div><span style="color: blue;"></span><span style="color: blue;">The full PV for C-ute's upcoming single, Sekai ichi Happy na Onna no ko, has been released on their official youtube channel. Ad it honestly seems really rushed. The single isn't releases until September 7th but we're getting the PV now. Which is about a week or 2 early. And we're getting the PV with no warning. Not one PV preview was released for this single.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">When I first watched the PV I decided I hated it withing the first 10 seconds. But for some reason by the time I finished watching I was in love with the PV. Which is something that never happens with me. Usually it's pretty cut and dry, I either love the PV or I hate it. And everything about this PV points to me hating it. The PV itself is extremely cheap. A majority of the PV is filmed in the exact same place. They have the dance shot up front, and then 5 feet behind them is the space for their close-ups. Which is something they hardly ever do in idol PVs. No matter how low of a budget they have, the dance shot and close-ups are 2 different settings. Even the cheapest of the cheap PVs don't really do this. I can honestly only think of a few PVs that actually do this. Which are Buono's Renai Rider, and actually most of Kusumi Koharu's solo singles. Another reason I should hate it is because of the dance. The dance is extremely simple. But idol dances are hardly ever good. Literally 9/10 are terrible. </span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">I should also hate it because literally nothing happens in the PV. Just cute idol poses and close-ups, and that's it. Yet for some reason, despite all of this, I absolutely adore the PV. Because believe it or not I am pretty easy to please. I might be super critical of idol PVs, but that's not to say I don't enjoy most of them. The PV itself could be god awful, but if my idols look cute and are doing cute things, chances are I'm going to like the PV. It will never be my favorite idol PV of all time, but I will still enjoy it thoroughly. And that's exactly what this PV is like. The PV is simple, but it's not exactly boring. There are still a few cute elements to the PV. And above all, C-ute look absolutely adorable in this PV. They are wearing puffy idol dresses and oversized hair accessories. It's that's not adorable, I don't know what is!</span><br />

Project 2011 Summer ~Nippon no Mirai wa Wow Wow Live~ concert.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">The 5 members who were selected are:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">Katsuta Rina</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/KatsutaRina.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/KatsutaRina.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><span style="color: #134f5c;">Rina is 13 years old and her nickname for the group is Rinapuu. I have to say I am completely excited that Rina passed the auditions. She was one of my favorites and I was rooting for her. She has a cute voice, and seriously is mini Nono to me. A lot of people seem to think she's ugly. My poor Rinapuu is getting haters already.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">Kosuga Fukuya</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/KosugaFukuya.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/KosugaFukuya.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><span style="color: #134f5c;">Fukuya is 13 years old and her nickname for the group is Fuu-chan. Now, I'm not really the biggest fan of Fukuya. I didn't like her voice in the auditions. And it wasn't bad or anything, it just lacked energy. That's something she really needs to work on. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">Nakanishi Kana</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/NakanishiKana.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/NakanishiKana.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><span style="color: #134f5c;">Kana is 14 years old and her nickname in the group is Kanana. I am actually at lose for words about Kana joining the group. I absolutely did not like her one bit. She had the worst voice in the entire audition. I can't fathom why she joined. Her personality didn't pop to me, like Zukki's did. Zukki was the worst singer in the 9th gen but her energetic personality sold her to me. Kana did seem to smile a lot suring the auditions but she didn't seem to burst with energy to me. It seems she was only picked because she's pretty. And she is, she's absolutely adorable. Hopefully, her personality makes up for the things she lacks. Because right now a KonKon moment happened with her.</span><br />

<span style="color: #134f5c;">Tamura Meimi</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/TamuraMeimi.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/TamuraMeimi.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><span style="color: #134f5c;">Meimi is 12 years old her her nickname for the group is MeiMei. I am ecstatic that 13 made it! She was an obvious fan favorite, and was one of my personal favorites. Her voice was so cute and kind of strong. Her whole image just fit S/mileage perfectly. I couldn't be happier that Meimi was picked. The only real draw back for Meimi is she isn't that great at dancing. Hopefully, something like that won't effect her chances of joining.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">Takeuchi Akari</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/TakeuchiAkari.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/TakeuchiAkari.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><span style="color: #134f5c;">Akari is 13 years old and her nickname for the group is Take-chan. And Maimi's cousin passes the audition. I wonder if things like that helped her pass? Maybe I'm just being cynical. And if it did she probably would have debuted a while age. Akari wasn't really my favorite auditioner. But her years of Egg training has put Akari at such a high level of singing and dancing that she deserved to join the group. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">Even though these girls were announced as the winners of the auditions they are not out of the woods yet. Every single girl, yes every single one of them, are not official members of the group yet, instead they are all sub-members. They will appear in the S/mileage's upcoming 7th single and will take part in S/mileage's fall concert. And their performance in the concert will determine their permanence. Apparently the new members have the chances becoming a full member, entering the Eggs, making a new unit, or being dropped completely. Which is a complete 180 from what Tsunku had originally said. He said that if 6 members joined 2 would become members, and the other 4 would become trainee members. It seems Tsunku (or conceivably who ever is really in control of H!P) changed his mind and decided to have the new members tackle yet another hurdle. At first I thought this was a bit harsh, and even a slap in the face. But after I think about it more it almost seems fitting. S/mileage themselves had to get 10,000 smiles just to be able to make their major debut. So, why not make the new members go through a similar ritual? And besides that, it's even more press for S/mileage. Regardless of the outcome, you can be sure it's going to be mentioned somewhere in the media if the members are becoming permanent or not. Which just shows how Tsunku is handling the auditions perfectly to give S/mileage maximum exposure.</span><br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">As for my reactions to the winners themselves, am I 100% happy? Of course I'm not. I wanted first and foremost, the lovely Miyamoto Karin to win. That girl seriously had everything. She was the best singer, the best dancer, and she is absolutely adorable. I am completely devastated that Karin didn't win. But there's nothing I can really do about it. As a fan, you can't expect to have your favorites picked every single time. Anyone who watched the Morning Musume 8th gen auditions knows that. I am honestly lucky that Suzuki Kanon got picked at all. Having my favorite picked again would obviously be incredible, but obviously incredibly unlikely.</span><br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">After Karin my favorites were: Miyazaki, Yamaga, Rina, and Meimi. So, I actually didn't make out too bad. Since there were so many good singers in the auditions I secretly hoped that they would add 5 members, and I am actually thrilled they did. I can also hold out the hope that my other favorites auditioned for both the S/mileage 2nd gen and the Morning Musume 10th gen. Karin was talented enough to make it to the finals of both. Despite the general consesus of the fans, I actually don't think she would work that well for Morning Musume. She just fits S/mileage better. But that ship has sailed, and I'd rather have her in Morning Musume than not in a group at all.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">And here's a completely unpopular opinion, but a part of me actually wants all the girls to get kicked out. Not for any <span lang="">malicious reason. I am actually really excited by the possibility of another group being formed. Ever since S/mileage first formed I've always wanted S/mileage to be in a Berryz Koubou and C-ute type of situation. Where the groups were formed a year apart and are pretty similar to each other. However, as time keeps passing that possibility gets further and further away.</span></span>AimxAimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16514552918333102832noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752751883893340898.post-26791886978023813232011-08-12T07:32:00.000-04:002011-08-12T07:32:27.709-04:00Morning Musume-Kare to Issho ni Omise ga Shitai radio rip<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/MorningMusume-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="296" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/MorningMusume-2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="color: #cc0000;"></span><span style="color: #cc0000;">We finally have a preview for the second A-side from Morning Musume's upcoming double A-side 47th single, Kono Chikyuu no Heiwa wo Honki de Negatterun da yo/Kare to Issho ni Omise ga Shitai. However, the preview for Kare to Issho ni Omise ga Shitai is about half of the song or less.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">The song sounds nothing like I was expecting at all! The beginning of the song has some random train noises thrown in. Which immediately reminded me of the opening from Harajuku 6:00 Shuugou, just without the speaking parts, or Inspiration. And then the actual music starts and it sounds like a toned down version of Guru Guru Jump. And then theres also these beach party music randomly throughout the song. Which is a tad reminiscent to Berryz Koubou's Madayade. </span><span style="color: #cc0000;">Which is awesome because I wanted an upbeat song with a big instrumental, something along the lines of Lemon Iro to Milk Tea. However, this song isn't that big. It's far too toned down. The song is almost there, they just needed to go all out and push it a little further. But I have to admit, I do like it more than Kono Chikyuu no Heiwa wo Honki de Negatterun da yo. I don't know, the sound is just better. But overall, this is a really incredible single. It sounds like the songs Morning Musume used to release. Hopefully, this is a sneak peek of things to come.</span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">This song is lead by Sayumi, and surprisingly I don't really care or mind. Sayumi hardly has one of my favorite voices in Morning Musume. But every once in a blue moon she's handed a song that's perfect for her voice and she actually enhances the song. She did it in Fantasy ga Hajimaru, It's You, and to some degree in Appare Kaiten Zushi. And I think Kare to Issho ni Omise ga Shitai is one of those times. That mixed with being sick of hearing nothing but Ai and Reina, anyone else is a nice change. This song does still feature the usual suspects a lot. Ai, Reina, Risa, and Riho get lines. But just adding Sayumi's voice and having her take away some of the lines they woud get, throws off the normal balance and adds a different element to the song. And since this is only half the song we can hope that this means in the second half the other members will get lines. And even if they don't at least have a different 9th gen member sing where Riho's line would go in the second verse. I really want Aika to have a line. You can hear her voice in one of the group parts and she actually sounds good in the song.</span><br />

My favorite underage JE boy turns 18. Even though Yuto is only exactly 1 year and 4 months younger than me, I still felt creepy because he wasn't 18. I'll probably rejoice more when Anderson Casey turns 18. I've been perving on him since he was 15. Him and his "I look exactly like someone you know in real life" face. But I don't really follow Juniors. Therefore, Yuto <s>is still</s> was my favorite underage JE boy.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">I'm not even sure why Yuto is my favorite member of Hey! Say! JUMP. He's not the best looking member, which would be Ryosuke or Yabu. He's not the funniest member, which would be Inoo or Hikaru. But there's just something about Yuto that attracts me to him. He's got this dorky and quirky charm that I find appealing. Yuto is just so cute and loveable.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">To commerorate this milestone calls for a picspam of epic proportions.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">I gotta say, I do really like the overall sound of this song. It is incredibly happy and upbeat. And it's also has a hint of a rock vibe, because there's a constant guitar rift in the background. The song is pretty much sounds like a generic idol song. But I still think there's a little something more than that in this song. Momoiro Sparkling was pretty generic too, but I like this song about 30 times more than Momoiro Sparkling. </span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">I really love the super fast lines that Airi and Maimi sing before the chorus. But for the most part, I don't really like the way this song is sung. The girl's are trying too hard to sound cute, and it's making their voices sound a little awkward. Especailly Chisato, Mai, and Saki. There voices are pretty annoying in this song. And don't even get ma started on Saki. Her voice isn't the greatest to begin with, but it's almost ear piercing at some parts.</span><br />

I really wanted to say the full PV has been released. But since the PV on the DVD will be a whopping 18 minutes long, this seems more like the short version. Or at least the TV version.</span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">I absolutely love everything about this PV. I think the old martial arts movie theme is incredible. I love that the outfits fit the theme, but are still cute at the same time. I think the fighting scenes are choreographed very well, and are pulled off perfectly. There's a great balance of the member's attacking and taking counter attacks. Overall, I think the PV is very exciting and entertaining. And it has the potential to become an amazing PV. That's right the potential, because I honestly don't think it's at a 10/10 just yet. I'd say it's more of a 7/10. And the reason for that is, while I was watching the PV the entire time everything just seemed rushed. The PV seemed to focus a lot more time on the dancing/singing scenese then they should of. And because of that all the fighting scenes seemed incredibly rushed. It seems like they tried to shorten this PV the best they could. So, they shoved as much fighting, and different girls, as they could in 5 minutes. Making some parts of the PV seem a little choppy.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">If anything, this PV seems more like a tease. Now that I'm in intrigued by this PV I really want to see the full version already. I mean, they leave us hanging on Acchan's and Yuko's fight! Even though, since Acchan did win the senbatsu it's 95% likely she wins the fight.</span><br />

The new group is called Fairies and is made up of 7 memebers who's age range from 12-14 years old. Their debut single is entitled More Kiss, which currently doesn't have a release date.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #4c1130;">When I first saw pictures of this group a month ago I didn't think anything of it. I was going to blog about them, but I honestly didn't see anything special about them. I thought they were going to be like Tokyo Girl's Style, where their young age kind of turned me off of them. But once I heard a preview of their debut single I was sold on them. </span><br />
<span style="color: #4c1130;">More Kiss is absolutely incredible. It has an amazing beat, and despite the member's ages, is a lot more mature than the majority of idol music out there. I hear elements in this song that remind me of Amuro Namie, Utada Hikaru, and BoA. And the singing is at a pretty high level. Most idol singers have a specific type of cutesy voice, and are sometimes terrible singers. But these girls sound more like legit singers than idols. With much smoother and deeper voices then you would normally hear leading an idol song. And that unique element makes them a stand out to me. And a group I plan on keeping an eye on.</span><br />

I have been waiting for this rip for weeks now. Since the concert rip wasn't the best quality I've been waiting for the radio rip to finally hear the song.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #674ea7;">You know, I wasn't instantly in love with this song when I first started to listen to it. But half way through the song, it just made sense. And I actually do really like the song. It's not my absolutely favorite, and there is an obvious room for improvement. But I think the song sounds good. The beginning of the song has this funky sort of disco vibe, with some jazz undertones. <span style="color: #674ea7;">Risa's and Ai's jazzy extended notes during the bridge were just absolutely incredible, and one of my favorite parts of the song. However, I can't really say that about Reina's line there. </span></span><span style="color: #674ea7;">And then the chorus hits and it sounds like a completely different song. The song gets a lot more upbeat and happy. And for a minute I thought it was Ganbare Nippon Soccer Fight. The chorus is just Ai and Reina but they pretty much kill their lines, so I don't mind. And Reina also hits this high note toward the end of the song and it's nearly flawless.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #674ea7;">I really want to complain that the song's line distribution is completely unfair, and it's basically the exact same line distribution from Only You. But this is Ai-chan's last single, so let her sing as much as you want. But, hopefully this single and 12th album will really be an end of an era. And Morning Musume can start fresh and give everyone a decent amount of lines like they used to. I mean when Morning Musume had 12-15 members the line distribution was a lot more fair than it is now! Can someone explain how that even makes sense?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #674ea7;">By the way, what are they doing about the PV? Was it already filmed? Becasue Aika and Riho are both on rest now. And Aika has been in a cast for a while, so even if the PV was already filmed what are they going to do about the dance? Is Aika, or Aika and Riho, just not in the dance scenes?</span><br />

So, happy birthday to JM! Or happy anniversary! It's the same thing anyway. Janakya Mottainai's real birthday was July 25th. Techically it's May 29th. But my first post was on July 25th, hence July is the real birthday. I really wanted to make this post on the July 25th but I've been busy so this post had to be pushed back a bit. But hey, at least I'm making a post! Last year I completely forgot to make one all together.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">Wow, time really does fly. I cannot believe that I've been blogging for 3 years already. It seriously feels like yesterday that I wrote my first post. Which was a bit of a mess. It was poorly written and was a review of 3 songs and PVs in one post. <a href="http://janakyamottainai.blogspot.com/2008/05/yatta.html"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Here's</span></a> my first post for people who haven't read it or haven't been following JM since day one.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">I never really know what to write in posts like this. So I read my first anniversary post. Which you can read <a href="http://janakyamottainai.blogspot.com/2009/07/happy-birthday-janakya-mottainai.html"><span style="color: #cc0000;">here</span></a> if you care. In that post I wrote that my blog had over 11,000 views and got 100 reads a day. Two years later and my blog has over 141,000 views and 300-400 views a day. Which might not seems like much to most people, but I honestly don't care about things like that. I'd be happy with 10 views a day, as long as someone was reading it. I also wrote in my 1st anniversary post that I was happy to be featured on International Wota, and that it was my goal to be featured there. Flash forward to present day, and I became IW's blogger of the month and am constantly being featured. And I am completely thrilled about that, especially since I'm featured on IW a lot more often than I think I deserve.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">Overall, this blog is extremely important to me. This blog is like one of the only places where I can really voice my opinions on things. I have very strong opinions about a lot of different subjects, but I hardly ever really voice them outside of my own home. I've been extremely shy my whole life, and I've always avoided confrontation, so I'm always hesitant to voice my opinions in real life. Partly because I don't want my opinions to start arguments, and partly because I'm overly sensitive and think people will judge my opinions, and indirectly me, harshly. So, this blog is one of the only times I can really stand up and say, "You know what, I don't like what's going on here," or, "Actually I think this song is terrible." (Oh yeah, I'm so overly sensitive that I google AimxAim every so often to make sure people online aren't saying how much they hate me or my blog. <s>Does that make me crazy? XD</s>)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">This blog is also really important to me because its kept me really involved in idol music. Before blogging I was a casual fan, and I didn't realy keep up to date with news or individual idols themselves as much as I do now. Joining H!O is also a reason why I started to know more about H!P, and eventually made this blog. And before that I was such a casual fan that I used to search the idol groups I liked on youtube every couple of months to know if they had a new single. It doesn't get more casual than that.<br />
And as I kept blogging I found out about new idol groups, which I knew hardly anything about. And I wanted to get into them more. So, I started to blog about them. Which forced me to go and learn nearly everything about them, and forced me to keep up to date with them. I mean this blog tracks me getting into Hey! Say! JUMP practically from day one. When I first started blogging about them I was so new to the group that I accidently said Yabu was the only one to get a solo in Jonetsu Jump, when it was actually Ryosuke. I've thought about going back and changing that because it makes me look like a fool, but I can't imagine doing that. If I did I wouldn't be able to look back and laugh at how much of a noob I was.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">With each passing year I keep trying to make Janakya Mottainai better. I've been trying to post news as soon as it happens, and I'm trying to keep adding idol groups to cover. I want JM to become a go to blog for all things idol related. News, information, and reviews. Which is a huge daunting task. Which is so large that maybe I'm setting myself up for failure, but I'm actually confident I can do it.<br />
I'm also really trying to improve my writting. Which is probably the biggest task for me and JM. Mostly because I never really thought of myself as a writter. With this blog, even though I am writting I just think of it as blogging. Writting was never really my strong suit. I mean I was good enough at it, but I always seem to have trouble making my paragraphs flow and fluidly transition to another point without making it seem awkward or noticeable.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">Well, I'm getting a litte off subject here. I guess I'll just end this post by giving a big virtual toast to all my readers. Readers and comments are what keeps me going. I still get excited for each and every comment I get, and I still get sad when I don't recieve any comments. So, here's to you readers for making this birthday/anniversary possible. And hopefully you'll send me a virtual toast right back.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">Here are some idol songs to set the mood!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">I am absolutely in love with the PV. Finally it's a video that's not the same standard idol formula! After I saw the PV preview I had some fears that the entire PV was going to be nothing but them singing on the stairs. But there's actually a lot of elements in this PV. The video is filmed in this beautiful castle, and they actually make use of it. It seems like you get to see a nice chunk of the castle. Some of the girl's walk around, and each girl is in a seperate room for their close-up shots. They are also sitting on the stairs for the group singing parts, and the dance scene also has its own seperate room. Which makes the video pretty interesting because you never really see the same setting for that long. The only real fault you could find with this particular video is there's not actually a storyline. But I'm completely fine with that because there's so many different scenes in this PV you don't even notice that.</span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">The PV really has everything going for it, it's interesting and the girls look gorgeous. Much like Buono's Natus Dakara PV, this PV seems to be one giant beauty shot. Which is an obvious plus. </span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">This video as a whole just has a elegant, classy, and highend. It just has this sort of princess feel to it. The kind of vibe I wanted the Kimagure Princess PV to have.</span><br />

<span style="color: #b45f06;">Two different morning news shows have released PV previews for AKB48's upcoming single, Flying Get.</span> <br />
<span style="color: #b45f06;">When I saw the covers for Flying Get a few days ago, I was completely underwhelmed and didn't know what to expect from the PV. But I am completely surprised by how much I love the PV so far. The PV seems to be one giant fight scene. AKB48 in their Chinese inspired outfits are fighting bad guys and themselves. The PV just seems really itense and powerful. There's a lot of intricate sword fighting going on and the girls flipping people on their backs as well as scenes with the members getting thrown and strangled. Overall the PV looks very interesting and excited. Miles better than the Everyday Kachuusha PV. And it seems like you get to see every senbatsu members. Not like Heavy Rotation where you only really saw the top 10 or so.</span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06;">The only really fault about this PV is the dance scene. The dance scene looks exactly like the live performances of this song. Which is a little boring in my opinion.</span><br />
<br />

The group is based off the children's book Boukenshatachi: Gamba to 15 hiki no Nakama. Their debut single Ee Janai ka will be released on September 14th.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">Since this is a unit for children I can't really say that I'm too excited for this new group. However, you seem to make a pretty penny off of children's songs, so more power to them. </span><br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">The some itself seems pretty cute, so does the PV. It's just obviously far too childish for me to overly care about this group.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c;">Here's a PV preview of their debut single.</span><br />

The auditioners must be between the ages of 18 and 23 and have dance experience. Applications are due by August 20th. The winner or winners will be signed to Office48 and join DiVA.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #351c75;">I remember DiVA mentioning auditions a while ago, but I actualy haven't given it much though since. It's nice to see that we are finally getting some information about it. I still don't really understand why DiVA is auditioning for new members. Couldn't they have just added more girls from AKB48? It honestly seems a little unfair to them. And obviously the winners will only be added to DiVA and not AKB48 as well. Which also seems a little pointless to me. It reminds me of the whole Super Junior and Super Junior M situation. I'm just not to thrilled with the whole idea, it seems really unnecessary to me.</span>AimxAimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16514552918333102832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752751883893340898.post-61242454064506288692011-08-01T20:35:00.000-04:002011-08-01T20:35:25.521-04:00Itano Tomomi to release 3rd single<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/ItanoTomomi-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/ItanoTomomi-2.jpg" width="212" /></a></div><span style="color: black;"></span><span style="color: purple;">It was announced that AKB48 member Itano Tomomi will be releasing her 3rd solo single. The titled has yet to be announced and the single will be released on October 12th.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;">I'm half excited for this single. Half because Dear J was incredible, but Fui Ni was a disappointment. Other than that I'm getting a little tired of Tomomi constantly releasing solo songs. Her voice is lack luster, and she just released her 2nd single. But, what are you gonna do?</span>AimxAimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16514552918333102832noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752751883893340898.post-4699116427595780972011-08-01T20:16:00.000-04:002011-08-01T20:16:25.579-04:00What KAT-TUN's really running from<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/KAT-TUNRunForYou.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/KAT-TUNRunForYou.jpg" width="282" /></a></div><span style="color: #38761d;"></span><span style="color: #38761d;">The PV for KAT-TUN's upcoming single, Run For You has finally been released.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">And I gotta say after watching it I find the PV incredibly weird. I was confused by it, and was scractching my head about it the whole time I was watching it. I was mostly confused because after watching it I was drawn to only one conclusion of the meaning of the PV. That conclusion is, KAT-TUN is being tested or experimented on. It also seems like they are being brainwashed or mind controlled. Which changes the PV from something fun into something serious and weird. If you watch the PV you can see that KAT-TUN are in hospital rooms. They even pan out so you can see each member is right next door to each other. They also show a very large bolted door which means they are in some mental ward in a prison or some sort of special test facility. And each member is in an extremely strange room. Kame is in a room with a projector. Which is the most obvious brainwashing element, and what made me start thinking that was the meaning of the PV. I'm sure everyone is familiar with this because it's like brainwashing 101. You are forced to watch disturbing images over and over to brainwash you. It's not as obvious as the A Clockwork Orange </span><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #38761d;">eye speculums</span> </span><span style="color: #38761d;">scene, but it's still pretty obvious. And then Taguchi is in a room that is freezing. I'm pretty sure being exposed to constant heat or cold eventually breaks you down and makes you more susceptible to mind control. Maru is in a room where time seems to stop. I'm not sure what to make of that, but it's possibly to see how long is takes before he can't stand that anymore. Koki is in a room with a maze of electrical cord. I'm not sure the meaning of this room either. Perhaps to simulate electroshock therapy. Ueda's room seems to be the only one that doesn't make sense. He surrounded by constant sound. There's probably some signifigance in that too. But I have no idea.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">And through all of this KAT-TUN is being filmed and carefully monitored on screens in some undisclosed location.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">Now I'm not sure what KAT-TUN and mind controll have to do with once another. And I'm also not sure why KAT-TUN would make such a creepy PV. Maybe I'm just reading into this too much. But if anyone can explain this PV in any other way, be my guest. Because I can't think of one other meaning than the obvious.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue;">My interest in SDN48 has been dwindling greatly sinc etheir debut. GAGAGA was an amazing song, but then Ai Juseyo was just ok, and now Min.Min.Min is even lower than that. The PVs for SND48's singles have always been on the same medicore level. There's just nothing that stands out about this single. The PV does stand out but not for the right reasons. The PV stands out just for sheer weirdness. Which could be a food thing, but in SND48's case it's just not. Most of this PV focuses around SND48 in a giant cage wearing bug wings. Which isn't really explained and is pretty much a mystery to me. There are also close-ups thrown in where they are sitting on the cage. And a few scenes where they are tangled in branches. </span><span style="color: blue;">And that's pretty much the entire PV. No added exciting elements. No suprise endingwhere they all fly into a giant bug zapper. Instead the twist at the end they did add was pretty weird. They were being fished up by some giant who was standing on what looks like 50 different cage boxes. It made absolutely no sense to me.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">I guess my real dislike for this PV stems from the fact that this PV is a complete rip off of Miley Cyrus's Can't Be Tamed music video. And since I've seen Min.Min.Min video before I'm obviously not going to be impressed with it.</span><br />

Which is following suit to Passpo's recent announcement that Yukimi will go bald if their single doesn't get to number 1.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">What is it with idol groups lately putting their hair on the line? Not only that, what's it with them putting their hair on the line when they are obviously going to lose? There's no way in the world ViVi Natsu will beat AKB48's Flying Get. And there's no way Battle and Romance will beat Bz's album C'mon.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">At least Momoiro Clover Z's punishment is less severe and a lot more mundane. Obviously when they lose it won't be a big deal that Shiori cuts her hair. She'll most likely look cute with a shortcut anyway.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I understand that idol groups do this to get attention and to inspire a few more sales. But if idol groups do this all the time, it will lose all it's meaning. They won't be unique anymore. And it will become one of those rituals new idol groups do when they form or just to survive in the AKB48 dominated idol world.</span>AimxAimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16514552918333102832noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752751883893340898.post-74629679329515795342011-07-29T17:53:00.000-04:002011-07-29T17:53:23.300-04:00SUPER GiRLS announce 3rd single<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/SUPERGiRLS.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/SUPERGiRLS.jpg" width="342" /></a></div><span style="color: magenta;"></span><span style="color: magenta;">It was announced that Avex idol group SUPER GiRLS will be releasing their 3rd single. The single is called Joshiryoku Paradise and will be released on October 5th.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;">I've been follwing SUPER GiRLS pretty much since day one, so I'm excited to see them release another single. Their last song and PV were upbeat and fun, so I'm curious what kind of song this will turn out to be. Also, since their last PV was a summer and bikini themed PV I wonder what direction this one will take. Hopefully this song will have a nice chunk of Ami like the last one did.</span><br />

The title is still unknown and it will be released on October 12th. Which is almost a month after Ai officially graduates. That seems like an odd date to me. Fantasy Juuichi was released 2 weeks before LinLin, JunJun, and Eri graduated. I don't get why this is getting released after the fact.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">It makes sense to release one final album with Ai-chan. She's the strongest vocalist in the current lineup and she's a cash cow. It only makes sense to squeeze every last drop from heartbroken wota. Just like they did with their 11th album. But I really hope that this isn't a new thing Morning Musume is going to do. Release one final album before members graduate. Because you can say all the remaining girls (Minus Aika. :/ ) are popular enough to have their own last album. But I don't really want that to happen. When you rush an album like this, the music suffers. Fantasy Juuichi did have it's gems, but it was still, in my opinion, one of their weakest albums. And that's because the album had to be rushed. Perhaps, this album will be a little better since Ai-chan's graduation was announced months ago, maybe Tsunku has been writing songs for it ever since. But that seems like a long shot really.</span><br />

The single wil be entitled Tachiagaaru and will be released on September 28th. One month and 25 days after the release of their 8th single, Uchouten Love. This will also be the first single to feature the new 2nd gen member or members.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">I am actually really surprised that S/mileage is releasing another single so soon after their last. And a single featured new and untrained members to boot! The new members will be announced on August 14th, giving them only a few weeks to train and prepare for their debut. Morning Musume's 9th gen was announced in January and their debut single came out in April. That's a good 3 months more time the 9th gen will get to prepare compared to the 2nd gen. I sure hope Tsunku knows what he's doing. This all seems a little premature. I understand they have to be thrown into the new S/mileage concert, but a new single as well. Talk about pressure. I wish I could say I have high hopes for this single, but I don't. I don't think the new member or members will be anywhere near ready for this. Could you imagine what Zukki would have done if she only had weeks to learn the Maji Desu ka Ska dance?</span>AimxAimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16514552918333102832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752751883893340898.post-29368330280030431482011-07-29T16:29:00.000-04:002011-07-29T16:29:48.008-04:00Passpo fly into the summer<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/Passpo-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b238/scoobyfan92/Blog2/Passpo-1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><span style="color: #45818e;">The full PV for Passpo's 2nd single, ViVi Natsu, was released yesterday</span>.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #45818e;">When I watched the PV preview I was pretty shocked that Passpo felt the need to release a bikini PV. So, I was a litte apprehensive about the full version. But I am actually really happy with the PV. While there are 2 different setting where they are wearing bikinis, the bikinis aren't in the main focus like I thought they might be. Instead they are pretty much just a footnote in the PV. The rest of the PV just shows doing random cute things together. Like eating and sitting in a bed together. The PV seems to mostly focus on the dance scenes. Which isn't really a problem because the dance is cute and I absolutely adore their main outfits for this PV. And can I also point out that this is the first time that Passpo is wearing normal clothes in a PV. Well, if you don't count the pajamas from GPP. The pajamas seem more like a costume anyway. But my absolute favorite part of the PV is when they eat the summery foods. They are just adorable scenes, and they just scream summer to me.</span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;">The only real fault about this PV is I wish they used the summer theme better. They could have went all out and done every single summer cliche known to man. That would have be cheesy, but it would have made for an incredible idol PV. Or they could have taken the summer theme and made it unique like Not Yet's Naminori Kakigori. </span><span style="color: #45818e;">You can see that little added elements in the PV like the sunflower, tropical drinks, picnic tables, and the bikinis are supposed to give a clear message that this is a summer themed PV. They obviously do have some elements to let you know it's summer, but I just wanted more. A clearer picture painted. I guess I'm just being picky.</span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;">Also, I never noticed until I watched the PV how unfair the line distribution is. Mostly because I'm not all that familiar with Passpo's individual voices yet. However, my 3 favorite girls Kaho, Shiori, and Mio sing most of the song. So, I honestly can't complain too much about that.</span><br />
<br />

I actually think this commercial came out the same day as the dwango one, but I think I just completely missed it. XD</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Since this PV preview is only 15 seconds long we hardly get to see anything. But unlike the other PV preview that was nothing but dancing, this PV preview shows the close-ups. And everyone can take a sigh of relief that this PV will not become another Ultimate Wheels. The close-ups are a little confusing. I'm not exactly sure what's going on in them. We see Ueda in a solid white room with tons of electrical equipment, and speakers. And also there's a hospital looking bed in the background. In Maru's close-up there's only a hospital looking bed. And in the very beginning of the PV there's this door that's bolted shut.</span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13;">Which leaves only one conclusion, that KAT-TUN is either in a hospital or a mental institution. Which on the surface is a pretty cool idea. However, that storyline lost all it's appeal when I remembered one thing: wouldn't that theme be too much like N*SYNC's I Dive Myself Crazy music video? And you know what, it competely would! I feel slightly embarrassed just thinking the 2 could have similar videos. XD</span><br />

Giving us fans yet another sneak peek at the PV. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Most of this PV preview is the same as the last PV preview. Where is shows Berryz Koubou singing on stairs à la the Very Beauty PV.</span> <span style="color: blue;">But beyond that we also get to see the close-up scenes, where everyone looks absolutely gorgeous. And from that we can see that it seems like the PV is set in a mansion. Which is a nice setting actually. A big improvement from the Ai no Dangan set. Let's hope they utilize the set to their full advantage. Because even though the setting is good, they could still mess up this PV. Like focusing too much on the stairs. XD</span><br />
