Video of the Week

Fighting☆Hero by Ono Erena

This week's Jam is a lovely little piece from Solo Idol singer Ono Erena. Because of how much I am in love with this song right now, it's been on a loop, but not only that; it has also motivated me to work! I found the beat easy to work with as background noise, but mostly I found the song and video inspirational, and it motivated me to do my best on my paperwork and video editing for college... SO YAY!!!

Anyway, other than that, I do love this song. I think that it is the best song from Ono Erena yet! She sounds, and looks, amazing, and the Idol Pop Rock just works for her. So yeah... please check it out! The PV is helluva cute, too!

Picture of the Week

Fly away Home, Winky. Fly away Home...

To celebrate the departure of The Winking Squirrel from Morning Musume, I will be using the best image of her that I could find/create. Enjoy, because it will be there all this week~ MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

According to a recent blogpost, Ishida Ayumi will release her first photobook in July. It has been shot in Guam, and the images were taken at the same time as Mizuki Fukumura's photobook.

Comments:

Personally I'm still waiting on potobooks from Eripon and Chokubo. Also; I hope that the staff pre-warned anybody on the beach that they would be letting a Shark-Idol loose in the seas.

Hello! to Taiwan Official Website

There will be individual handshake events for Berryz Kobou's up-coming single Golden Chinatown/Sayonara Usotsuki na Watashi by pre-ordering through Chara-Ani.

Comments:

Chara-Ani seems to be a popular thing for H!P now.... and if I had to choose someone to have an individual handshake event with, it would be Momoko, just so that I could take a flaming torch and get rid of those ugly-ass pigtails of hers.

Hello! Project News

It has been announced that Berryz Kobou will perform at Nippon Budokan on November 29th 2013!

Comments:

I find it extremely fishy/ironic how, just after Saki cried and whatnot about not being 'a good enough leader' to get her group to Budokan and then asked for Miyabi to be sub-captain, that suddenly they get to go to Budokan. This is basically the same thing as when S/mileage's Gorilla-chan cried on camera because Tsunku had said they had to go to a smaller venue because they didn't sell out their venue tickets, and weren't good enough... and then suddenly their venue sold out.

Yeah.

It has been announced that a cute new Idol unit Tsuribit will make their debut with their first single on May 22nd, titled Start Dash! The unit, made up of five girls between 6th grade and high school freshman, are produced Bajune Tobeta, a Japanese musician and film director who oversee's projects from the initial concept to the overall production.

Much like any other Idol unit, Tsuribit aim to become top Idols, however they have a certain quirk to set them apart from other Idol groups: they all aim to perfect the sport of fishing!

The group will hold their live debut Tusiribit Birth Cry Live ~Someday We’ll Fish The World~ on May 24th at Akasaka Genki Theatre. It has been revealed that the tickets have already sold out.

Comments:

Cute Idols? Fishing? This actually may be a pretty cool sub-activity for the group, because Japan is teaming with fish, and I bet it's an activity that quite a lot of people have in Japan, or at least older people? I have no idea, I don't fish... but I think that the concept behind the group is cool!

Oh, and the group has an official website, Facebook page and Twitter, so please check them out!

The album's title was originally going to be titled Ere-pyon, after Ono Erena's nickname, however as the singer is turning 20 this year in November, it was decided that she would instead use her real name.

"I’ll be releasing the first album of my life! The title is ‘ERENA’. It’s been a year since my debut, but I’m happy to finally accomplish one of my goals – to release an album. The album is filled with what I wanted to do after carefully discussing with, and consulting the staff. Who I’ve been, and who I’ll be. I want everyone to understand and remember the real, not-yet-twenty Erena. There’ll be a lot of new songs! Please look forward to it until June 19th!” - Ono Erena (Tokoy Girls' Update)

The track list will be released at a later date, it has been revealed.

Comments:

When I saw this news, I admit that I was really excited. I still am, because Erenyan is accomplishing something she has dreamed of, and tackling a goal that she has been aiming for since becoming a solo singer. I am really happy for her, and I can't wait to hear the songs on the album!
