Morning Musume's 50th Single "One•Two•Three/The Matenrou Show"

[andrewmarlin]

Source Hello-Online with link to Hello! Project website and tokyohive. From the looks of the site, this is all that is known, but then again I cannot read Japanese, but this is what tokyo hive states



According to the website, the double A-side single is titled “One Two Three / The Matenrou Show” and will be released on July 4th in a whopping seven editions: Limited Edition A (CD+DVD), Limited Edition B (CD-only), Limited Edition C (CD+DVD), Limited Edition D (CD-only), Limited Edition E (CD+DVD), Limited Edition F (CD-only), and a regular edition (CD-only). Each of the limited edition DVDs will contain music videos and an application for an event, while the limited edition versions not containing a DVD will simply include the event application.

[Shoujo Q]

Yes because we here at the BBS open threads when there's nothing but the release news. Try again when you have something to go with it, you know like previews, member photos. Something worth talking about.



Locking till something comes out and then I'll open this thread again.

New single photo shoot

[nagibon]

Ah, you beat me to it. I just saw the Hello!Time screen caps on H!O, the new outfits are so cute! I really like that they went with member colors for each outfit. I'm really digging Haruna's hair like that, too.

[Shoujo Q]

Stuff to talk about, thread is open!



Also Nagibon, you should change your avatar. I keep thinking your Molly.

I like her hair too. But Haruka's hair from the side looks not so cute but from the front it looks much better at least to me. I guess they aren't going to pass down Gaki's green to Erina. Maybe once the new girls come.

Kuduu is totally a little Arya Stark clone with her short messy hair. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' />



I notice that Sayu, Mizuki and Haruna have "you have boobs that can hold these up" tops. Poor Reina...

[nagibon]

Will do, I'm looking for something equally awesome now :3



I was also disappointed to see that they left Haruka's hair the same as it was in RH, I hope it's not her new "everything hairstyle."

[kira]

I like the skirts! And I like Haruka's haircut a lot, it's a very different look on her, but I think it suits her.



I was looking at CD Japan, and apparently limited A and B will have a B-side sung by Reina, Sayumi, and Aika, limited C and D will have a B-side sung by 9th gen, and limited E and F will have a B-side sung by 10th gen. I wonder if it'll be 3 versions of the same song (like Mobekimasu's "Kacchoi Uta") or 3 completely different songs?

[Haru]

I adore the outfits!



Haruna looks like someone...who is it? Almost like Nakky to me but I know that can't be it.

Here are some more pictures.

I love these outfits!! When I saw the first pic posted of Haruka's haircut (when it was straight and a little bowl-ish) I hated it but it looks good messy, if a little mature for her. Haruna looks amazing. Mizuki in a couple of years is going to be <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ebleed.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':nosebleed:' /> <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ebleed.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':nosebleed:' /> <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ebleed.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':nosebleed:' />

[Noa]

Wow, all of the girls look stunning. This is probably the first time I think all of them look pretty.

It would sell more if each song is different I think.

[Shoujo Q]

But knowing UFA and Tsunku it'll probably be all the same song.

[al kusanagi]

S/mileage's singles have different B-sides between versions, so there's some hope.

[showraniy]

Oh my god, I'm in love.



Doesn't hurt that this is the first perfect MM iteration in a while either!

Mizuki right now is <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ebleed.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':nosebleed:' /> <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ebleed.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':nosebleed:' /> <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ebleed.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':nosebleed:' />

Fixed.

[Anderei]

I like them! Haruka looks like a completely different person.

[/quote]



You don't actually need boobs to hold them up if they're tight enough. Plus, Zukki got straps on hers too.

[Melon]

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!

[Mukuro]

The outfits are so pretty!! I honestly did not even recognize Mizuki at first glance.. She looks amazing!

[Tsujiji]

They really look gorgeous in these costumes. Can't wait to buy the photo sets. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> Such eyecandy~!



..I guess this also means Eripon did not inherit Gaki's colors~ <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ryalot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':cryalot:' />

[Ap2000]

Makeup's cool, but I'm not too sure about these kind of dresses on some of the girls...



Will have to wait for the MV to pass final judgement.

[Pi Mako]

So repetitive, but I basically I agree with all the comments on how awesome the girls look. Whoever did their makeup is fucking genius. Even the hairstyles. Each girl's hairstyle REALLY suits her.

[Enmiz]

Mizuki and Haruna look so gorgeous! Haruna looks like Sayu in one of her photobook pictures. The hair does, at least.



I kind of want Eripon's haircut. It's really cute and seems a bit sporty (which I am most definitely not).



The outfits are really cute and kind of sexy. I just hope the lack of straps doesn't cause the awkward pulling up/adjusting the boobs dance. They add clear straps for events, though, don't they?

I think if more then one girl joins in the 11th gen they'll have to do something about colors since there's going to be a shortage of useable shades. Or maybe they'll wait till Sayu and Reina are gone before doing a color swap? Either way it's silly to give Eripon green when Kanon and her both have a whole color to themselves now.



As for the outfits. All the girls have matching boots. Reina has white. What the frig man? If Sayumi also has white then it'll make sense but I can't see Sayumi's boots.



And Kanon, that hair. Did they film this before the graduation concerts or something? Or is Kanon going through a phase of wacky hair?

[Melon]

I... will probably get the photosets and wish for a poster. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' /> I am a sucker for both those types of dresses and bows. The bows are so Hello Kitty-esque. Cuteeeeeee~!

[mrsross]

I LOVE THEM!!!!! They look a little v-u-den-ish to me and that's why I am loving them a lot. I'm kinda getting tired of the image color stuff though. They're starting to go more over board with it than THE iDOLM@STER.

I think the eyeliner makes her look kind of like Angry(Rika).

I think for the colors since Kanon liked Aika she could get Aika's color. That way purple and green will be represented just lighter since both Gaki and Aika had light colors.

[andrewmarlin]

If I read and understood Reina's blog entry correctly, one if not both of the A-side songs are in Morning Musume's new play. If memory serves me correctly, this happens every year doesn't it?
