7 Years of Awesomeness

Today marks the 7th year of the addition of the three amazing personalities to Morning Musume. In case you don't know, I'm talking about the 6th generation.

We have seen how their management have placed their fun-loving personality and good chemistry into good use through the MC segments and promotions. They may not be the most talented members, but these three, like other senior members, certainly worked their asses off to be who they are now. A great singer, a great dancer and a great TV personality. Can this generation be any greater?

I'm a big fan of Rokkies and I love how despite their absolutely different personalities, they work really well together. Its great to see them pass yet another milestone of their career and friendship today. I'm sure Sayu remembers this date (I remember watching her talk about January 19 in a Morning Musume DVD) and do hope that they have their way of celebrating this day.

Happy 7th anniversary to Rokkies!

Happy 20th Birthday, Reina!

A very happy birthday to Reina!

Still, she'll always remain as the forever-16 Reina that she wants to be in my eyes. It's not as though she can't pull it off anyway. I mean, just look at that picture. Anyway, I truly hope she had a nice 20th birthday and may all her wishes come true ~

...I still find it amazing how her birthday is full of 1s. If she happens to be born at 11:11AM/PM, then wow, Reina's mama is amazing.

Again, happy birthday Reina!

- Morning Musume's average age is now 19.6

Aika's impersonation of Eri

"An impersonation of Kamei-san ♥
or so intended...lol
Do I look like her?
Do I look like her?"

...Makes me wonder why she has Eri's uchiwa. Just posing with it? Or she's a fan of Eri too? :P

Happy 10th Birthday, Love Machine!

(Release date : 1999 September 09)

Tsunku comments on Shouganai Yume Oibito

Tsunku has commented on Shouganai Yume Oibito on his blog

亀井、新垣、道重についてもちょうどこの曲の年齢にぴったりなので、
自然なトーンでゆったりした気持ちで歌ってもらいました。

Kamei, Niigaki and Michishige are at the most suitable age for this song,
so they had sang the song out calmly and naturally.

(Does that mean other members weren't being natural?)
Conclusion : Age is a factor :D

Comments from Tsunku

Tsunku updated his blog about Platinum 9 DISCO concert tour which will be starting this Friday. He made a couple of comments about the girls and here's 3 that caught my eye.


久住が急に大人っぽくなってきました。
Just 2 days ago I was discussing with Steph about how much Koharu had changed in terms of looks and personality. I was talking to her about Koharu's sudden change of personality in 2008. Even though Koharu behaves childishly at times, but it was pretty obvious that she's maturing. She has became more reliable perhaps because of the fact that she has to take care of Eri when they go on radio and TV shows together. Looking at the 2009 Koharu now, she's different from the 2005 Koharu who was always in the Kirari character which I sometimes dislike. Even though I prefer the adult-ish Koharu, I don't want her to lose her forever genki and KY character which other members often jokingly poke fun of. I'd prefer her to be who she is and continue to bring joy and laughter to the group like what Gokkies had mentioned during a Resonant Live MC.


亀井の「カワイイ」と「激しい」の２種類持ったパワー。
Its true. Eri possesses both cute-ness and intensity. The moment Eri steps onto the stage, she's a different person from the backstage Eri who fools around. She's serious about her performances and gives all her best like other girls do. Whether its singing or dancing, there's both cute-ness and intensity (or even, sexiness) in them. Just like what fellow Rokkies said, one can never get "used" to or sick of Eri's cute-ness. Even after being Eri's producer for 6 years, Tsunku still notices Eri's cute-ness.


新垣の落ち着いて来たあの歌声。
"Gaki-san's calm voice."
So now that Tsunku commented on Gaki-san's voice, I decided to pay full attention to it. I'll say its soothing rather then calm. I played Gaki-san's Indigo Blue Love on repeat as I'm typing out this post. Its calming and makes one feel secured in this cold night (Except for those parts which she put extra stress on). Do try listening to Yowamushi with your eyes close. Its different.

Eri look alike?

..or Aichan look alike.

Got this from a Japanese uploader site.
Still can't see the similarity?
Perhaps this will help.


I wonder if any members have noticed Aichan and Eri looking alike.

Anyway, check out Aichan fumbling in Youngtown.

The numbers in the brackets are their rankings in last year's poll, so that means Aichan had jumped 3 rankings, Reina had jumped by 15 rankings (WOW!) and Koharu made it in to #10 even though she wasn't even the top 20 last year!
The poll on my blog will end in 4 days time, so start voting for the Morning Musume member you want as your girlfriend now if you've yet to do so!

I know there are those "Bandwidth Exceeded" messages by Photobucket all over my blog now, apologies for that.

The pictures will only be available again on the 26th of February.
(Imageshack isn't being nice to me, I can't re-upload my pictures for now)

Wishing all the Chinese a Happy Chinese New Year.




I do hope JunLin are back in China now to celebrate this festival with their families.
