After that, there are questions and the video messages from all the groups to Thai fan. Currently I cannot find all the clip to post yet.
As the time VRT started, It was very clouded.
And the time has come, The VRT that everyone on that day was waiting for
After all the joy, came back to my place. I post the clip. There are many comments that say, we, Thai fans are so lucky. I considered. Yes, partially, we are lucky, but we've fight for the chance as well. People buy the copies of the CD. Participate to the events, express their felling. I was even a little bit shock when I see this
That's all so for, more to come, See you at the concert!
I did abandon this blog. It has been dead for months. My life is pretty busy as well. I'm just turned from a student to be a salary man, which is quite boring. Enough with my personal life, Finally, This is a great restart point.
As yesterday, it was official announced "Berryz Koubou - First LIVE IN BANGKOK"

2009 August 14th Although this is not the first time that Thai fans send something to the Berryz or H!P, but as far as I know, this is the first time that the fans got reply back from the member on-air!
On the 7th episode of "Tsuukai ! Berryz Oukoku" One of Thai fan's letter got replied on-aired. (I know his/her name but for here, I'll keep it anonymous). For me, this is like the first time that the member hear the voice of the fans, OUR CALL for them. This is like the signal of something great.

At the original plan, there were 3 choices, Fujimoto Miki, Tsuji Nono and.. well, I didn't remember. However Miki got most of the vote, so for the 2nd year, Thai fans got this

Maasa is the 5th member of Berryz Koubou who gets her photobook. The preview is so sweet delicious and answer all my doubt that why she is getting pretty lately.
Honestly, I used to think that she'll be the last one or the one who never get her own PB. Because from 3 that was left here, Capain has super sweet face and so adorable personality. Chinami has definitely sparking smile and KILLER legs. Maasa is fairly cute, but I don't think she'll get it before the rest.
Come to think that the other 2 of berryz don't have, in order to make her PB, Does UFA safe the best for last? May be not.
1. Swimming Suite shot: Captain surely doesn't have a potential on it. Although she is the oldest, but she might have a youngest body figure among the members. But what she is right now, is totally what I prefer. Anyway some otaku photoshoped the pic for this option, I damn sure bought the idea.
Chinami scores for this, Her killer legs will work for this.
2. Sexy Both of them doesn't have this much. Captain has some shot with her childish,yet sexy-in-the-way face, but it's rarely seen. and Chinami is definitely funny, but that doesn't count as sex appeal?
Launched on Youtube yesterday, for Dakishimete Dakishimete - close up version. I once mentioned that the track didn't attract me much, it's still good song though, coz somehow this track remind me to Morning Musume than Berryz Koubou.
Anyway, After countless time, watching this Close - up Version, make me love this track more [^_^]b The girls are SWEET and WICKED. Every of them change a lot in term of apprearance. They are very cute and SUPER CUTE on MIYABI, RISAKO and MY LOVELY Captain!!
- In this song, the girls are meant to be sexy and serious look. Momoko failed that with her childish is somewhere seen in the video, just like Mitsui Aika failed to make a crying face in "Naichau Kamo", But this can't be help, right? XD
Start in 1996, That was a while since my first "get into" listen to Japanese Music. I started of listen Rock band, like X japan or Luna sea. Hearing of Morning Musume in 1999 at the time, didn't get much of my attention.
Move to 2004, After disband of L'arc~en~Ciel in 2002 for their individual work, and reunion of their "SMILE" album, I paid more attention to the Japanese entermaint business, and that the first time I heard of " Fighting pose wa date janai!" the second single of the lovely berryz.
Honestly here, the song didn't got me as their PV, I just love-at-first-sight to their captain, SHIMIZU SAKI and become her slave, if I could, in sudden. Anyway, when I got my conscious back, consider from their work is not bad after all. Although the quality of Music is not in the level of what I listen to for POP Music, like UTADA HIKARU or BOA. But the girls are still very talented, and let me know what Idol is, what can made someone fall in love into those IDOL label. May be part of this addiction is because I am a lolicon?, (I DO NOT LIKE to see child porn and stuff, but I love their energetic, enthusiastic, innocent vision to world of them). I love watching them grow.
Becoming a fan of Berryz for awhile, Maiha's graduation just remind me of what the pain is. I faced this one from the disband of X Japan in 1997. But the Berryz case is different, when X Japan disband on the agreement of the member, Berryz won't for sure. And the life of this group won't last long as the band like X Japan would. SHIMIZU my fav. is already reached her last stage of the berryz's edge boudary and MOKOKO will turn to 17 in the next few days. 5th anniversary is like the sign for me, like this might be the last era of this sweet lovely group.
I hope for all the girl to be last long as they can..

HDB - Tsugunaga Momoko
She was born on 6th of March, This year is her 17th birthday as I mentioned already. Since I have no much time so, I post now. If you looking for someone you'll never get bored, someone enthusiasm, someone super cute, someone can't play on an instrument,someone childish and someone everything about her is unique, her voice, her gesture, her response..Think of MOMOKO.
Official new artists of H!P were announced yesterday.
フランシス (Frances), who is on your left is 8 years old and 愛子 (Aiko) is 6 years old. There are Taiwanese H!P Member though.
Silence.. I'm wondering, is there anything against children's law? with this young, they are still in kindergarten. (but well, Mai chan was around this age when she entered H!P, this might not be a new topic after all)
so, dig down into my HDD, Let's see what H!P has accomplished so far about this lolita type idol
H!P Kids :
As you can see, there's a lot of kindergarten look to these girl when they first entered Look on the top and the bottom right Risako and Mai were 8 and 6 years old as well.
Saki, the oldest, was 12 at the time, but still look so young as well.
NICE GIRL μ (Miyu)
The group was announced in the late of 2008, so far I've not heard for any further news about them, The groups are: Kanon, Nat-chan, Fun-chan, Momochi, Harun, Kaorin (all are nicknames)
Not to mention H!P Egg that consist of variety of age. Does H!P gone to far in searching there workers? (or our idols) But one thing, I'm the one who enjoy watching them grow though. Without demand, there is no supply. So if I think these girls are too young, that's all my fault?
