New layout

Yes I am unoriginal and used another template and kept the topper. Ah well I do really like the new layout. I think it's very cool. But this post is just to say that I got a new layout and a new side part part: Member of the month! And for that I will make a post about what I think about that member. I think this would be a good way to show my love for the H!P girls. This will also have past members of H!P. So there is a very good chance of Goto or Kago to show up. Just so you all know.

Gets post!


A nice gets post here as it rained all day today and I started school again. Aww so depressing! But I was happy to come home and find three different packages of goods from HSUSA. It would have been more but due to back orders somethings are being held until February. Well let's take a look at the goodies!



I got all the 2L sets for every member for the military sets. I thought that these are some of the most awesome concert images in a while! H!P really out did themselves with this tour and the goods. The black outfits are like the ones that look the most out of place honestly but I think 8th generation and Reina look the best. The green color for 8th generation is like perfection! ♥ Gawd I love them so!


Next is the graduation set. This is the only set I got from all the graduation things just because I had to save my money for books for school. But I am happy I got these and kind of wished I would have gotten Linlin's microfiber towel. But what can you do? Yeah but these are lovely. ♥





All the group sets I got. I have to say I love Morning Musume group shots. I don't really much care what they are all from I just love them. ♥ So I have about 4-5 other group shots that are on back order. Two from the making of the calender, 2 from the behind the scenes for the DVDs and goods shoots and then one live set and one military set.

Then the main thing:

Eri PB! Now this was a kind of spur of the moment buy where I was like "Hey I want this PB." And then I got it and was like "I didn't really NEED to buy that. Ah well" So here it is. It is a really nice PB, some shots are a bit too much for me but Eri looks amazing in all the shots. I think my favorite shoot had to be the one of her at the karaoke place. The ones with the tambourines. Very cute! But my favorite part has to be where the making of DVD is that it's a picture from the karaoke place where they were playing "Go Girl! Koi no Victory" and on the TV is a young Eri.

Yes those are my fingers XD

So You can't see it too well but I think it's adorable. ♥♥ Over all I am very happy with the things I got. :)

The Leader Ai Love


So it was announced that Ai would be graduating in the 2011 Autumn tour for Morning Musume. I can't say I am too surprised at this news. Ten years is a beautiful time in a group and then leader, the cool whip on top of the awesome that is Takahashi Ai. More like extremely bad timing. I was just really reeling from the loss of Kamei, Jun, and Lin and getting excited for 9th generation and then we get this news.

Of course the up side is that, as fans, we get all this time to enjoy the singles Ai will be a part of in Musume as well as the ties she has made. I am guessing Loving You Forever and Tomo are in order for this graduation. I feel bad for Ai fans as I know Eri had 3 PBs when she left and it was only three months. Ai has 9 so I am expecting like 10 PBs now.

But honestly I can't say I am unhappy. Morning Musume has been stagnent a bit and we all have kind of forgotten what this group is all about, a changing line up that changes musical genera. I feel in love with the Musume from 2007 to 2009. I can say that even though Koharu wasn't my absolute favorite the loss of her really affected my thoughts on Musume. It seemed like it only got worst when Eri and Linlin left as they were in my top 10 of all of H!P.


Thinking of time though, it's sad to see Ai become such a marketing ploy for H!P. I mean the statement from Ai makes it seem like Tsunku is forcing her out because of the age difference between 9th gen and Ai. I think if you can have Yuko and Kago in the same group it could have worked. Also this announcement was 5 months apart from the Eri, Jun, and Lin graduation announcement. And they give Ai all this time for promotion? Obviously H!P wants fans to buy out her goods for the Spring tour as well. I can see no other reason why one would announce this so early. If that is so it's really sad and I hope Ai becomes a Takarazuka Revue actress and is amazing!


Welp girls raise your glasses to the awesome that is Takahashi Ai for the months you can!

New Generation

I know I haven't posted in like forever, I am really bad at this huh? Ah well~
So I wanted to talk about the new girls. We have:


Niigaki Risa, Suzuki Kanon, Michishige Sayumi, Ikuta Erina, Takahashi Ai, Sayashi Riho, Tanaka Reina, Fukumura Mizuki, and of course our Mitsui Aika.


I have to say out of all the girls I like Riho the best. She looks like she has some serious moves and she can sing pretty good. I am always weary of good dancers in these auditions, their voices can vary a lot but Riho looks right on. And after Eri leaving I have to say that they need a kick butt dancer to join Ai (and Aika to a lesser extent). Erina is also a pretty good dancer as well. And her smile while dancing is one of the first things I noticed. Then we have Ms. Moshimoshi herself Suzuki Kanon who not only has a first name of a H!P member already but a last name as well. Lucky girl! But now it is gonna get even more confusing! If having three Saki's wasn't hard enough! But really Kanon looks like a good girl who will fit right in along with Aika (they do kinda look similar despite fan reaction! XD).

Then we have the egg; Fukumura Mizuki. Not my first pick...actually I had no clue who she was really. And I'm sure a lot of people didn't...I guess if Tsunku wanted to go for shock then he picked the right girl. Only barely ahead of the other eggs by being in the reformatted Shugo Chara Eggs did Mizuki shine. (Boy I have to get use to typing these new names). But like I said not my first pick

*cough cough*

But good for Mizuki.

Maybe Saho can be in a new group. With Riho! Anyone ready for the Ho-Ho connection!
