Alo-Hello! Berryz Koubou in Hawaii DVD

With a running time of 91 minutes!!!..Berryz Koubou's 1st Alo-Hello! DVD is the mammoth of all Alo-Hello! DVDs till this point!! Most usually average about an hour or less and at the price of only 3800 yen that means it'll cost you only 41.75 yen per minute of Berryz *goodness*~.

And they're in Hawaii♥..in so many nearby and recognizable places! ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。！！

Berryz Koubou's "Alo-hello! Berryz Koubou DVD" can be ordered here at Cdjapan.

I've included a 9 minute clip which gives a pretty good overview of what you can expect from the full length DVD in a much shortened manner and here's just a few fun surprises that you'll "see" along the way………

“A Summer Day”

Moritaka Chisato "Natsu no hi" CD single (cover scan)

Moritaka Chisato "Natsu no hi", "Do The Best", "Kibun Sokai" releases

Summer is both beautiful and oh so warm here in Hawaii……and perfect for the occasion here's one my most beloved artists of all time Moritaka Chisato and I really should be doing a proper posting as there's so much to say….it took me years to collect her entire single/album discography but for now here's her 22nd single "Natsu no hi." All lyrics by Moritaka Chisato……..~♥~…first her music video and then a live performance at Yokohama Arena~.

森高千里

The short summer is coming to an end on the calm beach.
The afternoon sunshine reflects on the wave and is twinkling.
Tired with swimming, you are sleeping with a calm profile.
I want to be with you on this beach for a long time as we are.

The sea breeze touches my cheeks.  A ferryboat sails off the shore.
Now I'll taste this tiny happiness.
The waves surge back and forth calmly on the peaceful summer day.

Though I was used to spending a summer alone,
I've wept at lonely nights by a little window.

I've got cheerful like the summer sky since I become acquainted with you.
I'll stealthily put those tears in my heart as they are.

Looking out over the sea, I can see dim lights on a far island in the twilight.
I pray for our happiness to the first star.

With an evening calm, it's getting dark peacefully at the end of this summer.

The sea breeze touches my cheeks.  A ferryboat sails off the shore.
Now I taste this tiny happiness.
The waves surge back and forth calmly on the peaceful summer day.

By Hirano Makoto

MM Gakuen Gasshobu “Mecha Mote I Love You”

MM Gakuen Gasshobu "Mecha Mote I love You" LE single (jacket scan)

MM Gakuen Gasshobu "Mecha Mote I love You" LE CD single

Nice Girl Project's new unit has a cute little release in their debut effort and it seems like the anime affiliation is becoming so widespread which is a great thing as anime songs♪♪ are always so *kawaii* ne~.

Their title track "Mecha Mote I Love You" is the opening theme while their coupling with track "Kirei ni naritai" presents the anime "Gokujo Mecha Mote"'s ending theme song.

Both songs receive their own pvs which are included on the bonus DVD which comes with the LE although notably both pvs fair in comparison to the actual lengths of their corresponding tracks….with "Mecha Mote I Love You" being just 2 minutes and 10 seconds while "Kirei ni naritai"'s pv runs just 1 minute and 41 seconds. Both pvs feature heavily scenes from the anime with the latter being purely an anime version.

MM Gakuen Gasshobu's "Mecha Mote I Love You" single releases can be ordered here at Cdjapan.

Ogawa Mana in "Mecha Mote I Love You"

Ogawa Mana whom previously released her debut solo single is the featured girl on the title track while the entire unit is featured on the coupling with song…..I was sort of hoping for a regular pv for the coupling with track as with the included anime version we're yet to see the other girls in the unit but I imagine that that will soon be remedied with the arrival of the accompanying pv DVD single which is sure to include the original version as well as more extras…..wait I must check if there actually is such a release as I'm just thinking surely there must be one ne~. And while both pvs are like edited versions, it does leave lots and lots of extra time to include jacket shooting footage as well as individual interview segments for each member~. In all the bonus DVD has a running time of just under 24 minutes.

Both songs are absolutely adorable and very energetic tracks and it makes me curious to watch some of this series in the future and as both pvs are shortened versions of the original tracks, I've included their mp3s as well so the entire songs can be listened to~.

原 史奈…gravure idol, actress, model, host & artist♪♪~

Hara Fumina

Hara Fumina releases…

From the late 90's till now Hara Fumina has graced countless magazine covers, appeared in numerous variety t.v., hosted sports programs, starred as Sailor Moon, appeared in lots of CMs, starred in both t.v. dramas and movies…has an array of idol DVDs & shashinshuu and while her career which has spanned well over a decade is primarily known as an actress and former gravure idol, this now 28 year old also ventured into the music scene back in 2001 & 2002~.

And while music may have not have turned out to be her niche, Hara Fumina did release two singles and a pv collection during that span of time.

Hara Fumina releases can be found here at Cdjapan, YesAsia, Amazon Japan and HMV Japan.

Hara Fumina "Naite iiyo"/ "negai ga kanau basho" CD single

02 青空と太陽と風のなか

Hara Fumina

What's really sweet about these singles are the variety and effort put forth into the musical♪♪ compositions and particularly with her second single where both tracks "Koi wo hajimemashou" & "Aozora to taiyou to kaze no naka" show a great jazz influence in both with some of the chorus portions of the latter taking on a somewhat avant-garde approach~. Her earlier single is more in the vein of comtemporary pop with a bit of folk flavoring in "Naite iiyo" while "Negai ga kanau basho" is pure pop fun in a most catchy sense! Fumina's vocals throughout are more on the cutesy side with a light but sweet♥ intonation~. o(*´∀｀)o゛

Hara Fumina

Hara Fumina "Koi wo hajimemashou"/ "Aozora to taiyou to kaze no naka" CD single (cover scan)

Bomb magazine collection (’98-’02)

Hara Fumina also frequented Bomb magazine which is like idol heaven photography for any collectors out there. (￣▽￣) Each issue averages about 178 pages and the magazines size is somewhat more like a digest in a sense as it measures 8 1/4" x 5 7/8" and the content in this publication is just amazing as in addition to extensive gravure photography in each issue you'll also find idol news, release news, event & t.v. show/drama updates, idol schedules for what they'll be doing in the coming weeks, and tons of interviews! Etc! etc! I subscribed from early '98 through 2002 and my modest Bomb magazine collection consists of 66 issues~.

The featured cover girl for each issue is featured extensively through photography, works, interviews as well as other special features including…..

Scan0051

………your favorite♥ idol's room invasion!! Σ(￣◇￣*)!!…no I mean room check!…(^q^) It's really a long running cute feature for their cover girls and it's really great to see how your favorite idols live and yes~! organize their rooms! Really intimate for sure. ＾　＾

Scan0052

Then there's the "Growing Up Story" feature which also covers each issue's featured cover girl!………

Scan0053

………..and last but certainly not least is the famous…

Scan0054

……."Body Check" feature! Of course only the slightly older idols get these and I'm thinking you can imagine why! (。ーωー。)

And here's just a little sampling of what you can expect from the pages of Bomb magazine……here of course is Hara Fumina's feature from their February 2002 issue……..

Berryz工房 delivers an unprecedented double a-side release!

Berryz Koubou "Seishun Bus Guide/ Rival" LE type A (jacket scan)

Berryz Koubou "Seishun Bus Guide/ "Rival" LE Types A & B CDs

It's Berryz Koubou's very first double a-side!! And in true double a-side fashion we're treated to pvs for both songs which is reaching into somewhat uncharted territory for one of H!P's mainstay groups!

Limited edition Type A's DVD includes the "Close Up Ver." pv for the upbeat "Seishun Bus Guide" while LE Type B's DVD includes the "Dance Shot Ver." pv for "Rival"….a pure blooded J-Pop song♪♪~.

A sort of unwritten rule for double a-side's over the years has usually lended to a distict show of diversity and here Tsunku has penned two very different and distinctly flavored compositions in "Seishun Bus Guide"'s dance/r&b's outer influences and "Rival"'s sweet♥ and strictly "J-Pop" sound~. Songs like "Rival" truly remind of just why I first began listening to J-Pop and why it attracted me so much from the very beginning.

Berryz Koubou's "Seishun Bus Guide"/ "Rival" releases can be ordered here at Cdjapan.

Berryz Koubou "Seishun Bus Guide"/ "Rival" LE Type A (inner jacket scan)

Japan like so many other cultures has over time evolved musically in the sense of becoming attuned to many outer influences and much of their musical landscape today is occupied by music which has really moved past its own identity….for example American R&B is heard largely in so many artist's releases as well as many European influences as well~.

And with this in mind I would love to thank Tsunku for "Rival"….as this is truly "J-Pop" in it's ＊purest＊ form. ＼(^o^)／☆

Berryz Koubou in "Rival"

Momo♥

Momo♥♥♥!

As BK's pv DVD singles for this release won't be available until June 17th for "Rival" and June 24th for "Seishun Bus Guide" as both songs will be receiving separate pv DVD releases (a really exciting new release format for H!P!!…and I remember when I was pre-ordering these pv DVD singles a few weeks ago as I was so puzzled as to why there were two separate DVDs being released for this one single and on different dates….but now I'm like kyaaa! this is really awesome for BK! =) ), I'm yet to watch any of the original versions but I'm really loving this new trend of H!P offering alternate versions on their CD single releases so here we have the close up version for "Seisun Bus Guide" and a most wonderful dance shot version for "Rival." Close up versions are often sometimes understated affairs and it's really quite difficult for such a format to capture the feeling of any type of upbeat track for the most part but that being said….I do love this futuristic space like uniform thing that BK has going on in their close up version of "Seishun Bus Guide." And it's so wonderful for BK that Tsunku and UFI has allowed them to mature both visually and musically….perhaps leaving behind some of their somewhat maybe too childlike releases in recent months which have drawn mixed reactions amongst fans. "Dakishimete Dakishimete" appeared to be a turning point in BK's image heading towards mature and only time will tell if they've really settled upon this new plateau. =)

"Rival" takes on a much less somber approach visually and just seeing this dance shot version makes me so giddy~! Σ(￣◇￣*)！！！I can't wait to see what they have in store with the original version!!! The dance choreography captures the elation and fun of "Rival" so immaculately and no playful nuances are left unturned in this one! And if you ♥ air guitar you've come to the right place….as even the almighty Air Band has nothing on BK!! Momo &Riichan take center stage in the almost play like choreography and all solo lines are worked in so well by accentuating each member's presence in seamless fashion throughout. This is idol choreography at its best!! Just so in ~♥~ with this song!!! o(*´∀｀)o゛♥ It's *perfection*. ＾　＾

Giveaway items…

First as mentioned in the previous giveaway post which shows the final standings, CK had been appointed in deciding whom will receive the Cute pv DVD single and he did a most cute drawing!!..which can be found here! And I love that he used that most *cute* Ayaya first pressing pouch for his drawing~! ＾　＾

And then I totally spaced out and forgot to include the final driver results in the previous giveaway post~. (._.;) Gomen ne….

(these are the results from Pocono below……the overall final standings are based on total average finishes by all nine chosen drivers in each of the three races including Dover and Lowe's Motor Speedway which were then all added together for one final average total giving the final order of standings from 1st to 6th. )

1. CK—– Drivers Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart & Carl Edwards finished 7th, 1st and 2nd respectfully.

2. James—– Drivers Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart & Jeff Gordon finished 7th, 1st and 4th respectfully.

ガーディアンズ4 おまかせ♪ガーディアン

Guardians4 "Omakase♪ guardian" LE CD w/DVD (inner jacket scan)

Guardians4 "Omakase♪ Guardian" CD LE w/DVD

While I imagine that most fans would have their own *dream* version of a new unit I'm finding myself really liking this chosen quartet of H!P members and with Kumachan, Nakki, Mitsii & Riichan…all three main groups in the Hello! Project family are represented~.

I've been trying to warm up to the main title track for the past few days but the repetition does lend itself to a sort of middle of the road track for the most part. It isn't without its *charms* though with each member enjoying prominent solo lines during the verses and then there's that wonderful guitar riff which is definitely channeling Eric Johnson at about the 2:31 mark! =)

Guardians4 "Omakase♪ Guardian" LE CD w/DVD can be ordered here at Cdjapan.

Guardians4 "Omakase♪ Guardian" LE CD w/DVD can be ordered here at HMV.

Kumai Yurina Guardians4 photo card

The LE CD release includes one of five randomly inserted photo cards so there's also the added fun of hoping to receive your most favorite member from this unit. Mines had Kumachan! =) There's also the inclusion of a DVD which includes behind the scenes jacket making footage with a running time of just under 9 minutes and there's lots of cuteness to go around aside from the standard photo shoots scenes……oh and those wonderfully *adorable* Shugo Chara Eggs! are also present in the making of and while I still haven't watched the actual pv for this release as mines hasn't arrived just yet I'm guessing that their presence here perhaps means that the Shugo Chara Eggs! are in at least one of the alternate pv versions found on their pv DVD single? In any case though the adorable foursome will always be a most welcome sight on any DVD UFI decides to include them in……I'm really hoping that they're presented as backup dancers to Guardians4 in their pv ala Manoeri's latest pv DVD single release~.

01 おまかせ♪ガーディアン

Guardians4

A very nice surprise was seeing that Shugo Chara Egg! also recorded their very own version of the title track "Omakase♪ Guardian"….a funny thing though is that the most distinguishing aspect are really the verses where the very distinct voices such as Kumachan and Riichan's……and yes the voices of those most adorable Egg!'s can be clearly recognized as the chorus sections sound quite similar with both ensembles singing in unison. Hmm..the Eggs do sound quite a bit higher though ne~. ＾　＾

03 Summer Has Come!

Guardians4

On so many occasions I've been finding myself ♥ing the b-sides quite often with so many releases lately….and that trend really continues here as the coupling with song "Summer Has Come!" is really in so many ways a much catchier and more melodic♪♪~ song than the title track. Here you really can hear exactly why from a musical standpoint why these four members where perhaps chosen as their ensemble vocals really blend together beautifully with sweet♥ harmonies and while the title track's much less mainstream sound may be just what the anime ordered up, for so many reasons I would have totally flipped the script here and opted for "Summer Has Come!" to lead this single release with pv and the full spoils of production~.

JunJun cap/ C-ute pv DVD single giveaway results~ ＾ ＾

Giveaway items…

I still can't believe that Tony Stewart didn't run out of gas!! (￣Ｏ￣*)…and that Jimmie Johnson did on the final lap….but still Jeff Gordon finished really great in 4th and 7th isn't bad for Johnson either considering that he coasted across the start/finish line..Σ(￣◇￣*)！….but before I get too much into a rambling on *mood*…………

Before I post the final results I wanted to say how well I think everyone did~! ＼(^o^)／☆ With so many unknowns and variables which racing brings I think everyone chose *great*……I hope it was fun entering and that the added suspense of merging sports with J-Pop gave this giveaway a bit more intrigue and fun~.

Oh and C-ute's pv DVD single still needs to find a happy home and while I was originally thinking random drawing…I just thought of something even more random like having the winner choose whom I'll send this DVD single to. (￣▽￣) So that means that………CK it's up to you~! Congratulations CK!! ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。！！The only stipulation in the original post was that in order to be eligible for the DVD single you just needed enter in all 3 races so here between James, Nayoko-Kihara, Tautterkle, Mozenator and Rebear please choose CK. =) If it's too difficult for you to decide I can still do a random drawing although I just thought that doing it this way in a surprise fashion would be even more random. ＾　＾

CK I'll PM you soon for delivery instructions and then when you decide on who gets the C-ute pv DVD single I'll then PM the next winner. =)

The final standings~
(based on average finishes for all three races combined)

1. CK—————— 6.11
2. James————- 10.22
3. Nayoko-Kihara- 12.55
4. Tautterkle——– 14.11
5. Mozenator——- 15.0
6. Rebear———— 16.88

Two shashinshuu will be given away next including Aichan's "Watashi" release. =) I will most likely be using the same race format with perhaps just a tiny difference in driver selections……..to be posted soon. (*´∀｀*)

And Manoeri shall lead the Eggs…「はじめての経験」ｐｖ DVD シングル

Manoeri in "Hajimete no keiken"…

Mano Erina "Hajimete no keiken" pv DVD single

My long wait alas is over as Manoeri's "Hajimete no keiken" pv DVD single was released on June 3rd…although it seems like it should have been released weeks ago as previews appear so early. =)

And although I've already gushed ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。！！over this single so much already in a previous post, this video release just deserves a re-gushing ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。！！♥ of sorts~! XD

Music videos always have such a ＊magical＊ way of enhancing pretty much any song♪♪~ and while many of the music videos of late from H!P have become attuned to a sort of format where you have various solo member scenes, close up scenes and dance scenes there's something really fresh about Manoeri's "Hajimete no keiken" in how much variety the producers have shot into it and with sets being both on indoor stages as well as the natural outdoors it breathes a lot of pep into it.

Mano Erina's "Hajimete no keiken" pv DVD single can be ordered here at Cdjapan.

Mano Erina's "Hajimete no keiken" pv DVD single can be ordered here at YesAsia.

Mano Erina's "Hajimete no keiken" pv DVD single can be ordered here at HMV Japan.

H!P Eggs get some ~♥~! ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。！！

But what's most promising is UFI's bringing out the Eggs for this production!! ＼(^o^)／☆ Aside from "Ganbacchae!" where future Berryz Koubou and C-ute members appeared as both the chorus and in that oh so *cute* pv, Gomaki's "Te wo nigitte", Mikitty's "Boogie Train" and the all including H!P All Stars release there hasn't been much utilization of those future idol stars now only known as the Eggs in backing up the current main groups or solo artists either in their recordings or their music videos.

Perhaps though this is a true sign of things to come and hopefully so as so far the most the H!P Eggs could hope for was being chosen to be a part of what has been mostly temporary anime units until now. Johnny's has long done their future star grooming by means of including Johnny's Juniors in backup dancer positions for most of their established groups and duos and it's been a winning formula for sure….so why not show those *adorable* Eggs some ♥ by including them in pvs as well! In addition to the exposure and I'm thinking a *feeling* of inclusion in the H!P family that they'll get by being in official releases, the Eggs will also benefit from the early dance training and the wise ways of just always being so kawaii~ all the time! (￣▽￣)

…and Manoeri shall lead the Eggs! =)

Manoeri "Hajimete no keiken" pv DVD single (back cover scan)

The pv DVD single runs about 19 minutes and includes both the original as well as the dance shot version of the pv and another shining point in including Eggs in music videos is that you can have so many of them included at a time~. The "*kira kira*" dance choreography is melt worth as I've become a pile of mush (￣Ｏ￣*) just watching and it's such a compliment to "Hajimete no keiken"'s most upbeat and ♥cloud nine♥ personality….I think I just had a tiny orgasmヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。！！♥….this has got to be Manoeri's very best release to date!

Yay for the Eggs!　＾　＾

This is so perfect for the summertime ne~!

And here's the wonderful variety of sets and locations that I mentioned earlier….it just captures the mood and overall happiness of the song in entirety~. I'm so in ♥ with this music video and song as the songwriters have really brought out Manoeri's vocals so much better!!…and looking forward to the end of the year..this is so going to be in my top 10 favorites of the year~. Her piano riff interludes make me *giddy*. XD

Minnasan gomen ne~…I haven't been online for the past few days and lol now the unwritten posts in my head are beginning to pile up!…(u_u*) Guardians 4, new singles by BK..Zard..SPEED..Fukuyama Masaharu..a new Ito Yuna album and my *new* girl crush~ um okay that should read *new* J-Pop love♥ although I do adore her soooo much!…..それはまだ秘密です！ XD

Hmm…so what have I been doing? My life is more or less uneventful for the most part but then there was….

…a most rare night of karaoke! You see I really do not sing♪♪ very well so it's mostly done in hiding….in the shower when no one's home..and usually you'd need to encourage me with lots of red wine in order for me to garner the "courage" to do so as it's rather embarassing..etc..etc.. XD Well she was brave enough to bear my "singing" although I don't really think anyone would call it that but rather something else instead. 😛 星のカケラ is a song that I'm really trying to learn right now..does anyone know it? But I sound terrible!!…maybe I should stop!

I hope everyone's having a wonderful weekend and I should be back to posting more this coming week….after all I do like to talk too much~ XD Hai~hai~…I think I'll watch a Sunday movie now. =) "he's just not that into you" was a really cute, funny and insightful movie that I watched last night and I highly recommend that all girls watch…okay guys too~. ＾　＾
