Bitter & Sweet [Renai WARS] REVIEW~




Bitter&Sweet is a good example why I should start to follow non H!P-groups in UpFront!
(Same goes with Up Up Girls *raves to Zenryoku Pump Up*)

(And I apologize for not writing anything... I do not even have a plausible excuse! OWO)

Soo, BitterSweet will release their next indies single (3rd) called
"Renai WARS / Koigokoro"
on feb 11th .. I think *to lazy to research... huehue*
and today I will review the first A-Side, Renai Wars!

So come on, bring the bazookas!-
I was just kidding!!

So~
Dem glitter shoes! WANT


The PV looks at first very simplistic, but it also transponds the message
of the lyrics amazingly. It may not be a ultra heavy budget that UFP
has like other agencies, such as Johnny´s or AKS, but this
along other acts shows that they do not need that.
(Still a bit sad that they still go with simples routines for H!P acts.. *sighs*)



And whats the song about, anyway?

Its basically a story of 2 girls, one more girly, one more womanly
fighting for a boys attention.

While Tasaki (more girly) is like
"I will make sure he will notice me and my girliness!"...

"NOTICE ME SENPAI!" *pewdiepie voice*

Hasegawa is the straightforward mature type with lines
such as "Im gonna seduce him with my mini skirts, you have no chance!"





Hasegawa also gets a bonus point for her eyebrow game :)

...even tho its not on the level of Ayaka in the "LILIUM"-Stageplay xP


What I also like a lot about this single is the fact
they show something similiar to a character change
in just 4 minutes. While as mentioned in the beginning,
Tasaki is more like girly (and reminds me a lot of Kotoko
Aihara from Itazura na Kiss, or Honoka Miki in their newest live adaption)
but starts think "Hey, why not try to be more mature?"-




Yep well..xD


- Hasegawa tends to ask her actions by asking herself
"What about if I act more girly, can I transmit my feelings maybe then?"



At least, this is what I interpret in the song and the lyrics.

So.. now the FUUHUN~

WOHOOOOOOO~


Even though I really adore the whole PV, this scene was a bit too much @_@

Ballons.. haaah.. luh it!

And I just noticed that this PV...







... looks like a PG 7 version of AKB´s "Heavy Rotation"... O_O

And damn, while Tasaki reminds me so much of Honoka Miki,
this girl is like Yossy 2.0!



So that´s for it today!  I really love this single a LOT and I cannot wait for its
phsyical release! Even though I don´t have the money to pre-order it,
I will definitly get this single in the next two months!

12th gen

Lying in my bed, 2am in the morning and I can not sleep but need to get up in 3 hours..  aw yiss, Im so f$cked xP
So what am I doing now, other than thinking melancholicly about my 18 years of wandering around on this planet (getting quite sentimental at this hour, huh) .. I decided to blog ! But its quite difficult with no mvs or anything to be reviewed, so I thought about something more trivial. What about just talking about the golden addition (heh, a pun) aka 12th gen of Morning Musume(15) ? So, I will give it a shot!


The 12th gen was officially announced on sept. 30 during the first concert at Nippon Budokan in Tokyo.  4 new members, 4 new faces.

Ogata Haruna - second Haruna, if there's a member having knowledge of this shitty 'confession'-H!P-Blogs on Tumblr, its probably her.

Nonaka Miki - aka Chelsea, the girl with the best english of all current H!P members, since living in the US for 8 years. (Yeah Riho, wuatsogoasaaroundocamsaroundo, right xP).

Makino Maria - Kenshuusei.. well.. that's it.

Haga Akane - same as Makino... ah  right! Member to be born in 21st century!... (god, I feel old).

_
This is perfectly showing how much I actually care about Kenshuuseis.. heh.. guess why I have trouble talking about the all new Kenshuusei-group *sweats*.. Nevermind..
So Aya, whats your thought about the newest addition?
Im suprised.
At how 'idolized' the gen already is? Not sure if its maybe the benefit of having 2 trainees within your gen, but Ogata and also Makino already feel so 'idol like'. Taking a look back at their seniors (9th gen is now THE FRIGGIN SENIOR GEN, I CANT EVEN...!) this was not really...or more like definitly not the case. Sato for example was pretty much what people like to call a raw diamond. Same goes for Eripon and Sayashi-Centaa. But over the singles .. and years *cries*.. they started to look so damn beautiful.. 'idolized''.
And this is what suprises me so much of the new generation.

There are of course (on Tumblr mostly) bad tongues calling 12th gen ugly, stupid
.. want Platinum Era back etc etc
Same stuff as usual when a new gen joins.
Sorry to take them as an example, but your beloved Michishige or Kamei, or even NonoAibon (yep them aswell!) were not pretty good at the very beginning of their career. But they managed to get over their "flaws" and become such amazing idols, singers, entertainers and on and on.

So why not sit back and wait for some singles / MVs?
I mean, really.. let´s compare some members right now to when they debuted!

Sayashi



Oda



Sato

...

Now, I don´t call them ugly or anything like that! NO! They´re definitly not ugly!
But still there is a difference! Not a big one, but still a difference.

This is what I mean by "Idolization"
..

So long story short, let´s wait until some singles, more performances and music videos
till we judge 12th gen!

ANGERME IS SO FUNKY QAQ

... aka a small review about Smileage err.. ANGERME's concert rip 
of their upcoming single "Taiki Bansei".

Awesome.. (exept Sasaki´s pants.. xD)

I can just say wow.


Let me be honest, I was never really fond of S/mileage back then. Fukuda seemed quite annoying (ok she still is.. xD) and I disliked the "high squeeky kawaii pitched songs" (I declare this now as an official music genre!) So I was really happy about the new style they got 2013/14 ... even though 'Mystery Night' was a bit too much, I guess x)

So after listenig to the concert rip from the 2015 winter tour I was so suprised.

If there´s one genre I prefer even over EDM (Yep, I like that!) its funk!

And Taiki Bansei is FUNKY AS HELL!

After hearing it the first time in the footage of "MaidigiTV" and "JiJiPress"
I was so pumped and it got stuck on my head for the whole day QAQ

If Smi.... ANGERME continues this way throughout 2015
my wallet will be raped this year...
...

I already know I will loose a LOT, A FREAKING LOT money in February!

QAQ

MoMusu DVD of Chayu´s graduation
ANGERME single
Morning Musume ´15 single
and One Ok Rock Album

....


oh jeez..

so that´s enough for this single, I will do a way more detailled
review when the full MV is released :3


Have a nice and wonderful day,
Aya

"Tada Aiaiaiaiaiaiaiai!!"

First things first

So hey guys,
thanks for findind this shitty little thing here :3

Stop Sayu!
So, what´s this thing about?

I just thought for a really long time that, besides Tumblr ( and we all know dem Tumblr teh bad sides, thou, kay, srsly, I should stop with dat internet-language!) and sometimes I even abuse Twitter for it,
I do not really have something like a zone for me where I can talk my shit out about idols!

Sounds bad, its not meant that way! QAQ

I need my zone where I can talk about the "Idolism" (is this even a legit word?)
like thoughts about members, music(video) reviews... and all that.

Sooo... yeah... that´s it for today, I gueess...

I will hopefully upload a review about Smileage... err.. ANGERME radio preview
of the most funkiest song evuur.. "Taiki Bansei"
(srsly if H!P will release more amazing singles this year my wallet will be raped) QAQ

Thanks for reading!
I BEGIN WITH CHAYU I END WITH CHAYU
