The faster tempo reminded me a lot of the songs on the remake album they did a few years ago. I think it's just the newer style they've been leaning towards when it comes to updating the old songs.

Five editions (Limited A, B, special ed, regular A, B.) Only a b-side this time -- I feel like we've been spoiled with all the 3-song singles lately. Also this year is the 20th anniversary of Morning Musume! (I feel old...) http://www.helloproject.com/news/6350/   Masaki won't be involved in the sin...

Maho has been diagnosed with a panic disorder and will be taking a hiatus to get things under control. As someone who had panic attacks (and still has them), I feel for her. It can be treated with medication and with therapy, but they are scary and you feel like you are actually going to die.   http...

And Carrie's mom just died today, one day later. 

Maria's wink in Sou Ja Nai is my favourite thing ever.

Chinami is in NZ where the 7.6 quake hit, but she has posted on Instagram to let everyone know she's okay.

Song wise, I'd rank it: Mukidashi, Sexy Cat, Sou Ja Nai
PV wise, I'd rank it Sexy Cat, Sou Ja Nai, Mukidashi.
 
Overall, though, I'd say Sexy Cat is my favourite, but Mukidashi is the one stuck in my head.

I'm actually really sad about this. I hated Momoko in BK, but in Country Girls she became one of my favourites. Now I'm sad.

This excites me. Maybe it’s a story-like PV like I WISH.

Oh my godddddd, I love this. Haruka and Sakura are continuing to slay. The concept is charming af and I love it. It's been a while since I ordered an MM single but between this and Mukidashi, I'm sold.

I just bought a early access beta called Tales of Grindea. It's a standard RPG reminiscent of Tales of Mana. The gimmick is that enemies respawn constantly so it's an endless button mash. I love it.

I thought it was "shit" -- pretty sure she said it once before on the radio show or something, so she knows what it is. There was Much Speculation when that ep aired lol

OH my god those are awful.

tl;dr aces aren't necessarily the most talented. I like the comparison to AKB48, that makes more sense to me about the differences.
 
I do like the song, though. 

lol and let's be real, Koharu was promoted as an ace. 
 
IMO ace, if anything, has just become as meaningless a word as "triggered" now.

LOL pls, Takahashi was more of an ace than Riho was (and I dislike both of them).

The medley was very good. I was skeptical too how they would make everything flow but it did work nicely.

Awesome! Thank you!

Koduko, I'd be willing to buy a duplicate off of you! I have nothing to swap but I love Zukki and am bummed I never got any of her grad merch.

The third Zero Escape game is out next week, and I am hella excited.

I would prefer a sack of potatoes to Riho, in general, but damn I love this girl.

Hoping for 13k... but who knows.

lol I prefer her to Riho.

I'm going to see it today and I'm hella excited.

Fukuchan/Momoko is not a combo I would think of but I loved this.

That was really cute. I loved "Metallica, of course!" Also props to the FBE for the editing on this -- they had Japanese subs on all the videos/reactions for Babymetal to read, as well as a translator for the questions, but the way they put everything together made it flow very well (vs ha...

this is so accurate though.
 
this is exactly what karaoke was like back then.
 
edit: my favourite part has always been the part where you can hear the original vocals underneath the dub.

I remember the Shabondama karaokes. The good one and the 'bad' one. Laughed so hard I cried.

I know, I absolutely love it.
