Re: Yoshizawa Hitomi arrested for drunk driving & hit and run.
[quote="JPope"] If that number of .58 is true, then Yossi is a full-blown alcoholic. Normal people can't walk with that level of BAC, but people who drink a lot all the time can function at much higher levels. Seriously, if she was a legit.58, we should be praising her driving skills for n...

[quote="Zoe"] I think that's a different measurement scale. As said on the previous page, Japan's threshold is .03 to the US's .08. [/quote] You're right - the US does g/100ml, Japan does mg/L. I tried plugging it into a converter and it gave me BAC .133, not sure how accurate that is, ...

Re: Yoshizawa Hitomi arrested for drunk driving & hit and run.
Oh wow, yeah - the US legal limit is .08, I think? I actually blew clean once in high school even though I was tipsy (not driving! they had obligatory breathalyzers when leaving prom, LOL), so I'm assuming 0.5 must be pretty fucked up?

Takahashi's voice hasn't been up to par since her vocal surgery unfortunately =/ She does sound better here than she did in performances from last year, though. But Gaki definitely outsold.

Re: Produce 48
This, imo, shaped up to be the most bland and underwhelming season of this series so far. The concept is novel but in the end we barely have 10 Japanese girls left, and much of the dance/performance talent has been eliminated (when this season was already short on talent anyway). My interest in ...

The thing is, that hasn't worked out so swell for other 48G girls. Every single one of them has underperformed in terms of post-48 success, even ye ol' Maeda Atsuko (whose roles ever since her AKB hype died out have been almost all supporting / sometimes even unnamed like as "refugee"). ...

Preview of the PV for Date no Hi in this week's Station episode. Both of these songs are pretty solid, but I definitely prefer Junjou. This song is a little too generic, to the extent it could've easily gone to any other active group other than Kobushi or ANGERME imo. Like I can easily see MM do...

Masaki reminds me of Fukuda Kanon, in that they both feel like idols that would've flourished back in the good ol' days, but instead they get their self esteem toyed with by the current culture. They're both girls that wota frequently complain are "disobedient" or "unruly". Whe...

Galaxy print can be cute but it's so dated to me LOL but, "dated" is pretty much synonymous with "Japanese idol" so it's whatever.
