Akiyama Yurika suddenly graduates from Ciao Bella Cinquetti

Image
Today it was suddenly announced that Ciao Bella Cinquetti's (formerly known as THE Possible) first generation member Akiyama Yurika graduated the group. She had the feeling she didn't enjoy being on stage anymore and felt like she has been doing it half- hearted for the past 6 months.  It has been almost 6 years since a member of this group graduated and this is super sudden. I am always sad to see members fo and Yurika is no diffrent. I hope she find something she wants to do in her life. As for Ciao Bella Cinquetti, they will go on as a four member group. Let's support them!

H!P's youngest group Tsubaki Factory announced the release of their first indies single! The single will be released on the 6th of september and will be sold at the Nama Tamago concerts. The single is called: Seishun Man man Naka! Tsubaki Factory preformed the song at this weekends H!P concert. I am so happy! I have been waiting for this moment and I am really happy. A bit bummed because I really wanted 17sai to be like a double a-side, but I am also very happy they get their own song!

Kobushi Factory release the covers for their debut single!

Image
Kobushi Factory will be debutting this september and they just released the cover for their debut single: Dosukoi! Kenkyo ni Daitan / Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san no Uta / Nen ni wa Nen (Nen'iri Ver.) The single has three a-sides which means 3 limited and 3 regular editions. Let's have a look: Regular A Regular A has the outfits for Dosukoi! I love how colorfull the cover is and I love the paint in the background and the paint bubble around the girls. I love how the outfits are in their own colors.  It is quite obviouse who the centers are.. But I think Rei and Mina look fab. Ayapan looks extremely bored, Hama-chan looks like: I should be in front and the other girls try to look exited.  Still love the cover and the colors though XD Regular B This cover is for Ramen Daisuki and dang is it boring. Rei and Hama look fab. Backgirls look like they wanna kill someone and Ayapan.. Guess posing is not her thing? The colors look horrible and I hate the red below

Morning Musume '15 released the covers for thei 59th single: Oh my Wish!/Sukatto my Heart/Imasugu Tobikomu Yuuki Finally we have some covers for this long awaited release! Let's have a look at them. Regular A This was the first cover to be released, so I kinda already fangirls over it. The cover is in the same setting as the MV and we see all the girls infront of a broqueisch wallpaper. We have the dance team sitting and the centers (Haruka and Zukki) in the middle. The other girls are sitting and standing more in the background. I really like this cover. It's simple, but shows of the girls. Ayumin is sitting like a total boss, while Sakura looks like she is holding the whole thing up. I love Zukki in the middle and Duu looks amazing <3  Regular B Regular B has the Sukatto my Heart thing going on. It's in the exact setting of the MV. I really like that it's such a darkish cover, with the girls being a bit over lit. The disco ball is a b
