Hello!News Network :: 2014 Edition

[yuzuriha]

I am actually crying over Sakura's shochuu omimai.  But seriously her and Zukki were perfect, as I expected.  Pepper Keibu is such a perfect song for Zukki's voice and range.

[Meikochi]

Kanon : Sorry.. I really don't like her tone of voice ><... But she didn't do any mistake so that's good.
 
Sakura & Mizuki : Sakura was great ! Her voice is smooth as usual, as well as Mizupon's one .
 
Masaki : I like her voice a bit more here than usual. However, even though I didn't hear the original version, I doubt Aya was shouting like that :s.
 
EDIT : I edited my first post (with the setlist) to gather all links in at least one post.
 
EDIT 2 : Riho - Appare Kaiten Zushi!

This is Sayumi's going out concert right? It doesn't honestly seem that impressive to me...certainly not a fitting setlist.
Also, since we don't have an album ( ) its just the same songs over and over again.

[Anderei]

No, that tour starts on the 20th, but I doubt the setlist will be drastically different.

[Meikochi]

I hope it willl be different because it's an overdone setlist..

[star]

Oh yeah, I just had a huge brain derp.

[TicTacAnyone]

Who'd want to pay to hear the same 10 songs we've heard over the past 2 years?

Delusional wota.

But seriously, I have no clue why we haven't gotten an album yet besides the fact that Tsunku is out of commission right now. I like these songs and all, but its just getting boring hearing them over and over. We have no B-sides or album songs so we just get to hear the same songs constantly and its just annoying. My favorite part of the concerts were always the B-sides and album songs so having mainly only the albums is boring to me.

[Shoujo Q]

The Naruchika events are more about the fact that you are up close and personal with the idols instead of stuck in a large concert hall with poor visibility. 
 
Oh and there may also be a handshake involved with the Naruchika. (Not sure on the google translate but it did say handshake) It's basically taking AKB's concept except going out to meet you instead of you going to them for the big concerts. 
 
So in that respect, the set lists are secondary to the experience. 
<div> </div>
<div>I'm trying to win tickets to the C-ute Naruchika event, already got Juice=Juice tickets. If I win, I'll be sure to give a more detailed difference between a real concert (Morning Musume) and a Naruchika event. If I can remember this post in a few months anyway. haha. xD </div>

[Meikochi]

I'll remind you because I'm interested in hearing your experience of that.

[Anderei]

I wonder why C-ute performs Juliet Juliet more often...

[TicTacAnyone]

In a recent article Sayumi explained that Yajima Maimi will be the new leader of H!P

[al kusanagi]

I fully welcome our angel overlord.
 
Sayu's quote: "Yajima-chan is the next cutest after me, so it's okay!"

[star]

I guess that makes sense since Saki will go with the Berryz <del>exhodus</del> hiatus T-T

[Banana]

Morning Musume. '14 on Pussuma
 
They teachi Kusanagi (SMAP) and some other comedians the One Two Three dance. Watch it before it's taken down! 
 
I love this hairstyle on Kanon. I think she's gotten prettier lately or maybe I'm just noticing her more. 

[momoirosaya]

I've never seen anyone dance as bad as that Tanaka guy....

[star]

That was super hilarious.

But yeah, that last guy just couldn't seem to figure it out and he had an easy part.

[rob]

He's a comedian and they will do ANYTHING to make you laugh, he's being intentionally bad ;)

[TicTacAnyone]

Well also remember who he had as his dancers.... Sakura is pretty good, but she didn't seem to be leading in the teaching XD

Kanon can look stunning so long as they keep her styling simple. It's when they over-do her hair and makeup that she treads into hot-mess/drag-queen territory.

[TicTacAnyone]

"Daijoubu" Morning Musume will be alright--Iikubo Haruna ver.
 
I freaked the fuck out at first because I thought this was a video announcing her as leader hahaaha

Mezamashi TV 10/14/14
 
Covers a bit of them in NY and the concert, among other things.
 
Edit: I think this may go in the concert thread, but since they didn't only cover the concert I put it here?

[TicTacAnyone]

Omg poor Ikuta and Harunan.... Hahaha.

[star]

Well I dont know about calling this another "Golden Era/Age" but its definitely the "Colorful Era". I was wondering what these were for when I saw them earlier, but I guess its just their yearly update whatnot magigers. I expect to see everyone else's soon.
