I agree with saikoink - I didn't care for the concept or song at all, but over the last week or two I've grown to really like it. I'm still impossibly pissed about Risa graduating, so I'm enjoying any shred of a non-high-pitched voice that I can. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#...

Huh... Never thought an idol group would make me legitimately sad <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/puppyeyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' /> I love Risa! I don't know how I can enjoy Morning Musume without her. They're turning into another S/mileage due t...

[quote name='Al Kusanagi' timestamp='1325378003' post='115040'] I'll miss her, but the combination of Akari's competitive cuteness, Meimi's adorable crack-headedness, and Kana's insane creeper factor more than make up for it.

[quote name='Usako' timestamp='1325194922' post='114934'] It feels as though the older crew are "forcing" it because they forgot how to cut loose and goof around in a PV. They only know "pretty idol mode" and not "let's get a little dumb up in here but be charming". [/q...

Thank you, Haru. You literally just made my day week <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /lmfao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lmfao:' />

I have to admit that I'm also among the minority that has a total disdain for Street Fighter. Not so much Marvel vs. Capcom, but definitely not a fan of Street Fighter. It's so damn clunky! My all-time favorite fighter is Dead or Alive, but since I can't get that I'll probably end up with Mortal Kom...

I'm looking on the bright side and pretending this is another "Morning Musume no Hyokkori Hyoutan-jima" (love that song <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/joyful.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':joyful:' /> ) - at least as far as the fun, happy, childish thing go...

I agree with Usako that both groups have a great chemistry together. New members, as potentially talented as they may end up becoming, would be pointless. If anything he should just create a new group altogether. It would be so cute to see Berryz and C-ute grow well into their twenties and eventuall...

Thanks! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danceman.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':danceman:' /> Got any recommendations on what I should start gearing up to play? I even found it a bit strange that I was more excited to download PS1 games from the network than actually ...

I got myself a PS3 for Christmas! First game I bought? Portal 2.



It's mind-fucking the hell out of me, and I'm loving every second of it!

My predictions are kind of all over the place and pessimistic! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' /> I didn't know about Tsunku threatening to add members to Berryz and/or C-ute! If that's the case, I see him going through ...

I never realized how goofy-looking Meimi was until just now... <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':huh:' /> Kudos for Kana being (in my humble opinion) the cutest one on the covers! She's pulling a Zukki here in the sense that she's maki...

Though I'm a gigantic After School stan, I have to admit that the song is pretty "meh". Has a very strong set of verses, but the chorus I feel was a little bit phoned in. Also, none of these girls can rap! Queen Kahi gets by fairly well, but the gigantic void Pledis left in the group from ...

I love it so far! Was expecting the worst, especially considering the fact that from the intro I was expecting it to begin with a line like "I just fall in lubbb~". Rainbow Pink still haunts me to this day <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif' class='bb...

[quote name='freezingkiss' timestamp='1322870234' post='113166'] ^ Um, there were three posts on the same day? Clearly that shows people are still interested? Are we even allowed to post here without fear of being chastised anymore? Why do you even care so much? This is still a relevant topic. [/quo...

I'm re-playing Final Fantasy 8 for the nine-millionth time. It's my first Final Fantasy and I haven't been able to get enough of it since I was 8 years old (I'm 20 now) <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... nceman.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':danceman:' />

Awww... Poor Zukki! I'm sure Tsunku will whip her into shape. I think she's going through her awkward-body stage early... really early. I still hope we still get to see a good deal of the 9th generation with the 10th coming around. Eripon is the only one that seems to be making her name better known...

^^^^ She didn't do bad at all! The practice video must have been filmed -right- when they learned the dance or something. She still seems to be the weakest link, though.

[quote name='BonkyuAsh' timestamp='1321918856' post='112737'] Why did tsunku pick all of them again? [/quote] I think it would have been a little harsh to kick any of them out. Seems like the entire "sub-members might get kicked out" thing was an empty threat to inspire the girls to work h...

I didn't mind the song at all! I do agree that the new members will change the sound of the group, and I think they'll be better because of it. I had never taken an interest in S/mileage until the new members came along, but I already like the new vocal dynamics they're bringing. I'm also happy Meim...

No clue, but I'd like to read the blogs to see for myself! She must not trust Tsunku. Looking at it from her perspective I wouldn't be very happy, either. I'd be afraid that Tsunku would just throw me in the background in favor of the new girls and never give me any lines. It would also definitely b...

Do you think Yuuka also wasn't happy with the direction the group was going in as far as the sub-members were concerned? If you watch one of the more recent Hello! Pro Time episodes about the sub-members going full-time, she seemed visibly displeased by the entire thing. I got a very bitchy "I'...

It's really sad to think that Bekah may have been forced out of After School for reasons that she wasn't good enough. She had some of the most to offer from the girls ("Take me to the place", anyone?). It's probably true, considering the song she's referencing. Just take the boyfriend stuf...

I'm still trying to decide if I like this song or not. I try really hard not to worry about line distribution, but it's a fleeting effort. It's not like ALL members need to be represented, but I feel that at least most of them should be allowed to do something. The video did a good job of giving eve...
