Hello! 2012 Calendar Dump

[Shoujo Q]

Covers for the 2012 calendars are out. The calendars themselves come out in October.



Are you getting one this year? I personally don't get the things as they are so damn big and I have no place to put them, also I'd be highly embarrassed to have one, especially at work. (I'm very oppressed.)



Morning Musume







Berryz Koubou







C-ute







Mano Erina is living in 2011 still. :x







S/mileage

TBA



Takahashi Ai









Will update in the future once more becomes available. (Like S/mileage)

[Anderei]

The Berryz calendar looks very unfortunate.

I have to say most pics looks rather bad...

I don't remember how the old calendars looked (except for the one with JunLin and red dresses) and if they were high quality, but these look like they just took the first pics they made...

Yes, what's the issue with that? Was it an error, or is the calendar part 2011, part 2012? (If this were the case, wouldn't they mark it as such?)



Mano and Takahashi Ai's look nice!! It's amazing how photogenic they are.



Berryz' calendar, on the other hand... <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hatthe.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whatthe:' />



EDIT: I wonder if they had S/mileage's all set and ready before Saki quit, and now they are redoing them? Just a thought.

[zlilzlilzlil]

AH! Risako's fake smile is just to much to handle...



Riho & Kanon are so cute their smiles look so innocent.



Why is everyone in c-ute are also forcing a smile? maimi looks like something really bother her...



BTW why does Ai get a calendar, by 2012 she won't be at H!P anymore, right?

Money.

[Arichii]

Is it just me or does Momoko's smile seem kinda scary ? Or maybe it's just because it seems forced <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/huh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':huh:' />

[rob]

You guys do realize that ALLLLLL smiles for a photo shoot are fake right?



I think the photos look great and if I wasn't scared of my wife I would be tempted to get the Berryz Koubou one.

[Madara]

They all look great and Risako is awesome. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

[Melon]

I would rock them PQ. But the photos are always so ugly I don't want to buy them. Why do their throwaway photos always look better?!

[Anderei]

Some scans of the Morning Musume calendar are out. They're small, though.



Risa, Sayumi, Reina and Aika for Jan/Feb.



Reina, Erina, and Kanon for March/April.



Risa and Riho for May/June.



8-nin Musume for July/August.



Sayumi, Aika, and Mizuki for September/October.



Kyuukies for November/December.



8-nin Musume again, I guess for the back.



2500 yen is a bit pricey for only eight pages, though, in my opinion, although judging from the small scans, they must be really nice in high quality.

[Shoujo Q]

Consider the size of the calender, it's like 8 big ol' posters that just happen to have month with dates on them for 2012.

[Anderei]

Yeah, someone pointed that out to me over at H!O, which made it seem more reasonable.

[Rinnie]

Really tempted into getting the Morning Musume one for my dorm room (depending on how expensive it is xD). But DAMN. Aika's smile <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /sleep.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='-_-' /> I don't think there's ever really been a musume with a more awkward smile. That girl has no lips.

I don't know if she lacks lips, or if she has them and misuses them, but every picture I've seen of her in quite some time is the same old duckface!

At least, that's in photos. When video captured and not in a PV, she can be quite cute when being genuine... I think.



These are so pretty!! I can't wait for some better quality pictures, Reina in particular looks really nice.



They caught MM at such a weird time. Ai is absent in preparation for her graduation, but the 10th generation members weren't even added yet while they'll debut before 2012 even begins.



Technically, (technically,) since 10gen joined just before Ai left, this is a lineup that never really happened. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /pouty.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':pouty:' />

[freezingkiss]

^ They were this lineup for Mobekimasu. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... lesson.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lesson:' />

[Anderei]

HQ C-ute scans are out.



Nakky, Maimi, and Mai for Jan/Feb.



Airi and her fang for March/April.



Chisato for May/June.



Everyone for July/August.



Everyone for Sept/Oct.



Everyone for Nov/Dec.





The pictures are really nice, but it's weird how they mention Airi and Chisato's birthdays, but not the others. Or maybe they do, and I just can't see it in the scan.

[al kusanagi]

Maimi, Saki and Mai's are all on the first picture.

[Haru]

The photos are nice, however the usage of Comic Sans turns me off big time.

There's only so many fonts available in MS Paint.

Maimi and Mai have a birthday on the same day, the 7th. So there's only two little dates circled instead of three. Saki's birthday is on the 5th.

Yep, Saki, that's what my mouth looks like the morning after a bottle of red wine too.

[freezingkiss]

I was thinking the same thing. That lipstick is horrendous.

[boinsie]

I love how they imply that Suzuki and Okai get their own pages (while the others don't) not because of popularity but instead because of birth month. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... stling.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistling:' />

Also yeah, Nakajima's lipstick. Oo;;;

[Noa]

Saki ruins every picture she's in dear god.

[NekoKaiSai]

Mai's smiles look like she has some additude(in the cute sense) and is it just me or does it look like they lined Saki's lips?
