Okay! Musume Digest #67

THIS POST IS LABELLED AS NSFW (NOT SAFE FOR WORK) BECAUSE THERE IS A GRAVURE IMAGE IN HERE. BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY, YOU KNOW?

Minna, Digest dayo? What shall we Digest today?

This week in Idol News...

Miyazakai Hayao to retire! Morning Musume's Updated Renai Revolution 21 preview is here! Nakajima Saki to release a sexy new solo DVD! Berryz new single title revealed! Akimoto Sayaka opens her official fanclub! Nozawa Rena's Team is determined! Previews and Teasers for Perfome's new album! And so much more! Are you ready to Digest?

Welcome back to my Weekly Digest! I hope that everyone has been having a good week, and for those who have returned to school... well, have a fun year ahead! I know you are already anticipating the next holiday you have (whenever that may be) and dreading the school days ahead of you... ahh, I miss that feeling of dread... luckily I go back to all of that next year when I head into University Life (not the Sims game, guys!) and start to lose the will to live! Yup, totally looking forward to it!

Anyway, this week in news has been pretty good! However, this has been one of my laziest weeks in updating the Digest, given that I didn't actually start the post until Sunday... again, lazy. Whoops. I apologies!!! It normally doesn't get this bad! But I have a reason for that, and it is a bad reason, but hey... here it is;

This week I have been hooked on watching playthroughs of a game titled Prop Hunt. Let's just say that it's entertaining, especially when PewDiePie plays it! I have been laughing so much my sides have started to hurt xD Really, it's an hilarious game, and if you have yet to watch it... please, go watch it. It is worth the loss of time!!! And negligence of my Digest! XD

That all said and done, let's get into this weeks Digest! Please remember to use ctrl + f for easier access to topics that you want to find!

Video of the Week

Datte LOVE ME DO by ANNA☆S

I actually only saw this video today, but I couldn't help but want to put it on here for the video of the week! I like the group ANNA☆S, even if I don't follow them religiously. They have something about them that draws me in... and I especially like Suzu, she always catches my attention with her extreme happiness and the bubbly way she performs! Also, this PV is so darned cute and friendly, how can you not fall in love with it!? It shows those cute and quirky sides to the girls in the form of photoshoots, and also has a cute little dance to go along with the adorable photoshoot scenes. Also, I love their costumes! ANNA☆S always seem to be so stylish! Waaah!

Be sure to check this video out, the video and song are fun and cute! So yeah... go watch it, and discover ANNA☆S for yourself!

NEWS OF THE WEEK

Hello! Pro Station #31 is here, and this weeks MC is Juice=Juice's Peachy-keen leader, Miyazaki Yuka! What will she have in store for us today?

In this weeks Hello! Pro Station...

Juice=Juice member profiles! Berryz Kobou perform their new single song! C-ute comment on heading for Budokan! Morning Musume 54th single release event footage at Ikebukuro Sunshine City! MaiMai sings Rakuten Eagles! And some Buono!? Be sure to check it out!

Comments:

Firstly... Holy cow I love the JJ profiles o-o <3 Yuka's was beautiful, and Akari's reminded me of those member profiles and comments from Morning Musume a while back, before Reina bailed and all, where they had photoshoots and the like. Secondly, the Berryz song sounds good, but their outits are pretty ugly from what I can see, especially Miyabi's and Maasa's. I hope they are just performance costumes XD

I quite liked the performance from MoMusu for the release event, they did really well! Even Riho, who I don't really like hearing live sometimes XD Sadly, fucking UFP seem intent on forcing certain girls to lipsynch, and not the one who needs to actually lip synch (Dayashi). URGH!

MaiMai singing, so cute! She also has awesome control, but damn, that instrumental is bloody loud o-O What are the staff trying to do, drown her out!? The girl sings better than a good half of MoMusu, so let her sing! But yeah, adorable <3

Also, the return of Buono! Momoko is too fucking loud, though. Girl, stop screaming down the mic. Thanks. Other than that... pretty good Hello! Pro episode, aye? :3

Misc News

It has been announced that world-renowned anime film maker Miyazaki Hayao will be retiring, with his final work being his new film Kaze Tachinu.

The announcement was made by Stduio Ghibli's Hoshino Koji during the Venice Film Festival where Kaze Tachinu was screened. 

Comments:

To be honest, I am not surprised by this announcement, and I am confused to as why others are, too. I believe Miyazaki-san mentioned it last year that he desired retirement... but, it is sad that a great man is retiring, however he has had a successful, amazing career, and has allowed many to enjoy his works. He is one of first film makers people get to know when looking into the world of Anime, and even non-Anime, Manga or Japanese lovers enjoy his films and find them wonderfully entertaining. He is amazing, there is no doubt, but he is older and ready to pass the torch to someone new.

We love Miyazaki-san, and we love his films. Please have a wonderful retirement.
