Morning Musume's 12th Gen auditions News

Before I start this blogpost: Please sit tight. I don't even know if I got this right. Tsunku just uploaded a video about the 12th gen auditions: There are no winners for the 12th gen auditions for Morning Musume. Tsunku said something about it not being the right time.  He is busy with Juice=Juice and the current Momusu members are great. I'm so suprised and shocked by this news. The whole audition was a suprise and now, not having any new members, it make me really sad.  I always love new girls. Getting to see them bloom and become a really Morning Musume.  And now.. 12th gen won't be around anytime soon.  What a news.

A very exiting announcement: Today Satoyama Life will have footage on the Morning Musume auditions!!! I really hope it's more than the footage we already have, but I'm so so so so exited!!! It will air around 6 p.m. in the Netherland on TV Tokyo.  I wonder if Morning Musume already saw the footage. CAN'T WAIT!

Jurin- Hotaru Matsuri no Hi MV

Image
The MV for Jurin's first single Hotaru Matsuri no Hi was released through UF Licks! I heared the song already, but I still love it. It's very calming and touching. Masaki's and Karin's voice complement eachother perfectly. The MV is also very calming and very very pretty. It gives the whole satoyama feel, with a lot of scenery and Japan. Screenshots after the break <3

C-ute- Ham and Cheese Bagel MV

Image
Today's Hello!Station featured the MV for C-ute's new Album song Ham and Cheese Bagel! It's the first track for 8 Queen of J-pop. The MV and song are really cute and very fun. There are a lot of shots including a  fun bed shot (which looks like a slumber party), several close-up shots and a cooking shot.  The song is about a girl and a boy. They share everything and have a fun live. The girl wants to be togheter for ever and always.  Screenshots after the break!

Juice=Juice- Romance no Tochuu

Image
So Juice=Juice has been really busy while I was on vacation!! They release three new MV's. Let have a look at them.  The first one we are going to have a look at is ofcourse Romance no Tochuu, which is their new single. The best thing about this MV is probably the 3 outfits and diffrent settings. The MV has a rich and elegant feel to it and the song is very classy. For what I can count we have: 3 dance shots (promotional outfits, white outfits and colorfull baggy outfits). Diamond shot Chair shot (ball chair) Close-up shot and 2 diffrent solo shots.

Nakanishi Kana's e-Hello 「sweet kana」

Image
The cover preview   Nakanishi Kana's e-Hello will be Sweet Kana. They also released the cover for the e-Hello and a preview.  Kana looks really beautiful and I'm so happy for her.  Since Yatteru-chan she has gotten a little push and that's just so great. The release date is the 4th of Novemeber and it will cost around 3000 yen (somewhat cheaper). They show us two outfits. A cute pastel colored outfit, a mint/white striped hot pants with high waist and a pink loose fit top.  Usually I don't like this hairstyle on Kana, but as the title says she looks really sweet and with her own charm. The second outfit is a mini dress with flowers. I love her hair like this. She looks so cute. Kana isn't the normal beauty, but you can't say she isn't beautiful. Let's hope for a Rina and Meimei e-Hello soon! e-lineup

Wagamama Ki no Mama Ai no Joke/ Ai no Gundan HQ covers released

Image
The HQ covers for Morning Musume's 54th single were released! Let's again have a look at them! Limited A I like it better now. But still, Riho's head is soo big. Kanon and Eripon kinda fall away in this cover Mizuki and Sakura look amazing. I do like the yellow with black and white.  Limited B I really really like this cover. The girls look amazing and I like the kisses on their cheeks. The pink/red background is a bit boring (I would have liked those trees...) but It looks really good.  Limited C This one is just AMAZING. I like how all the girls look. They have their own spot, same space. Amazing. I like Haruna in this one so much. She is just <3  Limited D I like this cover, although it's really boring. The girls are just photoshopped in a blue background. But they do look good so that's a plus.  Limited E Another amazing cover. They all look AMAZING the spots. Everything about this cover is great.  Regular A I do

Morning Musume's 54th single Cover previews and MV's

Image
On the official site of Morning Musume the cover previews for Wagamama ki no Mama Ai no Joke/Ai no Gundan were released. They also uploaded the MV's to their youtube channel. Let's have a look at each preview. The first one is Limited A. I don't really like it that much. Riho's head is just way to big pictured. It's fine when all the girls have their heads so big, but this is really weird, Limited B is the next one. I like the red. I can't really see the groups that well but let me try. Below we have Riho, Mizuki, Harun, Ayumi and Kanon (or Sayumi) and the upper row has Sakura, Masaki, Eripon, Kudo and Sayumi (or Kanon). This cover is quite nice. Simple but nice. The next is limited C. I like how light it looks, the yellow and the oufits fit toghether really nice.  Limited D is the only blue one. We see Haruna, Mizuki, Riho, Sakura and Masaki in the front row and Kanon, Ayumi, Erina, Haruka and Sayumi in the backrow. I think it kinda weird that ther

Morning Musume- Wagamama Ki no Mama Ai no Joke (MV)

Image
Yesterday, after a big delay, the new Hello Station episode was uploaded on youtube! A lot of fans have been waiting for this episode. It featured both MV´s for Morning Musume´s 54th single. In this post I will be talking about Wagamama Ki no Mama Ai no Joke. Let´s start with the song: I really really love it. I like how it's diffrent from Ai no Gundan and how Sayumi got more lines. I also liked that Eripon and Zukki got to sing in the second chorus.  I'll now post my screenshots after the spoiler.
