Berryz is a shell of its former glory.

>>Berryz is a shell of its former glory.
Where's this coming from??

>>7721368
What glory?

>>7721278
Ya well, I dont expect anything other than short skirts when I open a new smileage video, the way they dress fits their music and even if I dont approve of it they still manage to make me extremely happy with their videos so whatever.

For me its easy
1. Ama no Jaku
2. Asu wa Date nanoni, Imasugu Koe ga Kikitai
3. Onaji Jikyuu de Hataraku Tomodachi no Bijin Mama (has the MV I like the most)
4. Onna Bakari no Nichiyoubi
Those four are the reason I love smileage, the rest are just really good songs but not on the same heavenly level.

Your "least collected" is probably more than enough for me. Please post it :3

Berryz are the best, bitches!
They're idols but also a unique group like no other. Like a better MM. They're just almost all grown up (in terms of age) so music and looks changes a little.

Who s/mileage new member candidate(s) you like the most?
Who do you think will be added to s/mileage?

I think Miyamoto Karin wins hands down.
She can sing, she's not too old and she has the looks.

>>7729636
Karin has been a win-win for everything since she joined H!P, she's awesome. I wouldn't be surprised at all.

>>7729636
Karin is the best choice, but Tamura Meimi is still my favorite~ I'd enjoy being a fan of hers if she makes it~

Karin only having a good chance because of Momochi help.

(I think people already figured out someone who wins by the shoes or something but I don't read threads and don't care)

No one else can compete with Miyabi!

>>7730204

I love Chisa, but it looks like she's put on a tiny bit of weight; mostly in her face.

>>7731462
Doubt that's very true at all, she's done anything but put on weight. She used to be able to be considered, perhaps, slightly chubby at most, but now she' normal to even pretty thin. Very fit and looking very nice.

>>7729636
I'm rooting for Odenkun

>>7731462
chubby-faced Chissa is delicious Chissa

Yeah, I don't see "chubby" either. Chisato is downright yummy. If she left C-ute and went completely solo - damned I'd love that.

morning bros

Yummy~

Is there another Tsunku approved hentai doujin at C80?

New smileage submembers....

If what smileage was missing is "ugly girls with no talent", then he made the right choice. Tsunku confirmed for ultimate trollmode.

>>7739227
Yep. fuck you tsunku, having a s/mileage bonfire tomorrow

>>7739227
Are you fucking serious? He's finally lost it.

>>7739227
The only good news I foresee out of this is if there is another ℃スマ joint live, a Takeuchi+Yajima family duet will be interesting....

I really don't see how these 5 girls will add to s/mileage's popularity, if anything they will probably have less TV appearances from now on.

>>7739227
Kind of dilutes the pure S/mileage water.

But I will say this, this audition had a wider talent pool than even the Musume ones. I'm not surprised that Tsunku doubled down and just expanded the group into a new kids group.

After all S/mileage was out performing and gaining coverage than any of the other shit kids groups. Can't say it is the right move to make S/mileage a new institution or not yet. It really changes everything

I guess this means Karin and Dayeon are confirmed for MM then? Or is Karin doomed to the fate of Saho Akari?

I liked Miyazaki a lot too, I wonder what will happen to her...

>>7739508
>After all S/mileage was out performing and gaining coverage than any of the other shit kids groups.

And how do their efforts get rewarded? LOL ENJOY UR 5 NEW KOUHAI

http://ameblo.jp/tsunku-blog/entry-10985651072.html
Nicknames are "Rinapu-, Fu-chan, Kanana, Meimei, and Takechan"? WTF Tsunku? Someone straightjacket him and throw his ass in the high security ward.

Also, why did they cut Takechan's hair?. She looks even more like a little boy now.

>>7739665
I personally think he's going senile.

>>7739653
Meh, probably in current day H!P this means more then allowing them to remain focused and unique.

I mean they want to keep growing this thing, I suppose it is better than forcing the structure onto other H!P groups. Let them be their own growing entity

>>7739678
>allowing them to remain focused and unique

You mean forcing them to fight for center/camera time even harder a la Morning Musume?

Holy shit, so much samefagging in this thread!!!

What the fuck are you guys babbling about, Takeuchi is amazing, clearly a great choice to get ANY spotlight, she's very talented and has the right feeling for Smileage. Tamura Meimi was my favorite from the auditions and I'm very glad she made it, I'll be happy to be a wota of hers from now on~

Karin didn't make it for some clear other reason involving her being way too talented for Smileage or something lol. If you think it's because she's wasn't good enough or didnt fit well enough you're an absolute fucking moron, she's gonna go on to do amazing things in H!P and I wouldn't be surprised if Tsunku considers her his absolute ACE for H!P and plans on making her an H!P staple.

I like the choices, and I like that they put so many new members, I was kinda bummed when I heard he thought he'd only put 1 member in.

And in what way are any of them ugly?

>>7739813
Just because people don't think it's a good idea/disagree with you doesn't mean it's samefagging, dumbshit.

>>7739813
it would have been fine if just takeuchi would have made it in. unfortunately they added 4 others

>>7739813
>If you think it's because she's wasn't good enough or didnt fit well enough

No one said anything about Karin

>>7739813
>i'm happy with the 9-nin idea
>EVERYONE ELSE WHO DOESN'T LIKE IT IS SAMEFAG/RETARDED

stay classy, reinya

>>7739813
I like Takeuchi from the start, she reminded me of a mini Sakitty. I'm sad that Miyazaki didn't make it in but perhaps the age and immediate scope of the new class prevented her from being there.

Karin always seemed out of place to me for S/mileage, but some of the other faces that made it in are hard to understand what the next phase will be exactly.

I mean it is clear that Tsunku doesn't want to cover C-ute's slumping fanbase by combing concerts any further.

Well anyways, I think it is pretty clear that a lot of new H!P thinkers are working on the S/mileage side and are ready and capable to orchestrate this next phase.

>>7739827
2ch is saying a lot about her, and anyone who has followed the auditions even slightly would be outraged and confused at why she didn't make it. They gave her so much spotlight and praise for this audition, and if you look at her stuff for the audition you'd be insane to not be "confused" as to why she didn't make it. I, however, am not outraged or confused as there's clearly something behind it, it seems.

>>7739830
>>EVERYONE ELSE WHO DOESN'T LIKE IT IS SAMEFAG/RETARDED
Never said anyone was retarded or wrong, that was just my opinion post about this whole situation. I said the samefag thing because out of nowhere there are like 8 new unique posters to this thread after months of just being 2-5 max? Was just odd is all.

>>7739817
>>Just because people don't think it's a good idea/disagree with you doesn't mean it's samefagging, dumbshit.
lol None of that post was about anyone being wrong~ I just have strong opinions <3

Does anyone else like Tamura? Her voice is srsly fucking epic lmao~ A true idol voice, amirite?

>>7740050
I'm gonna have to watch the audition footage again. I can't even believe that Karin didn't make it. I really hope that she doesn't slip through the cracks. I liked her a lot.

>>7740069
Yeah, I could be wrong, that certainly wouldn't surprise anybody if I'm wrong since I'm wrong a lot lol, but I feel like there's no way there wasn't a plan behind it the whole time. She couldn't have just not been good enough, there's just absolutely no way... ;___;

>>7740069
It makes me wonder if Karin really wanted to get into MM or s/mileage more. I'm sure her preference doesn't matter to the management at all... but if she really wanted to get into s/mileage more, I can't even remotely imagine how bummed she is right now.

If Tsunku honestly thought she was worse than the 2 other remaining eggs and those other 3 girls then he is seriously fucked in the head.


Also, I hope they don't do to Rina like what they do with Aika and have her show her forehead all the time. She is way cuter with her hair down.

Hmmmmm now that I think about it more, irregardless if how much I like one or some of the new members, I don't see how the new s/mileage is better as a whole than the old one.

Is tsunkuboy ever going to tell us what they were "missing" to begin with?

>>7740278
They were missing Tamura Meimi, srsly... that voice, holy shit.

Where is this from?

I used to have no interest in Hello! Project, but recently I've been really into S/mileage... can't wait for タチアガール to see the new members in action!

If I'm reading things correctly, they're advertising Akari as a genki girl, Rina as a "smiling girl" (?), Kana as the first member form Kansai, Meimi as the youngest and Kosuga as an intelligent type girl.

I really want to know what happens to Karin, though. Poor girl got left out as the only one of the Eggs. She must be heartbroken. I don't have as much interest in momusu if that's where she ends up, but to be honest, I haven't researched the group as much. Any recommendations for Morning Musume songs? What are their good ones?

>>Any recommendations for Morning Musume songs? What are their good ones?
This isn't a Morning Musume thread, idk where that thread is or if it stopped being posted or not, though. But in my opinion you won't be going wrong with any and all. Obviously the modern stuff is more on tee with the rest of H!P though, their last 10-12 singles should suffice for you to see if you enjoy.

Saki Ogawa leaving S/mileage; graduating from H!P.

Please provide the source or no one is going to believe this.

Too bad, she was my favourite member. Sakitty ;_;

>>7781107
>>http://www.takamaruyo.net/?p=400
Too many connections on both links... So crazy.

NOOOOOOOOOOO! SAKI!


( ;_____________________________________; ) < NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I can't believe this explanation at all. I think there must of been a principled opposition towards adding new members into the group and Sakitty knew that this was probably be done to drive a wedge between the original 4.

She is turning it down for principal alone accepting the punishment not deserving of her but someone else. Because I can't believe there was such a unnatural disconnect with herself and her idol character. She seemed and was so energized, happy and dedicated.

And a 3 day notice too, something dramatic must of really went down to force this graduation approach at all.

>>7781176
Now that you say it, it seems pretty fishy.

Maybe they're trying to cover up something?

>>7781176
>>7781254
Probably best to not over think it, but if you feel you must, I'm sure 2ch has tons of amazing theories atm luuuul..

>>Maybe they're trying to cover up something?
But stupid scandaling DAWA is still in? I won't stand for it.

>>7781254
One thing that is clear is that if an original S/mileage member decided to leave by May there would of been a lot more connection between the departure and the new auditions.

And that an original member would at least be deservedly given how bout we go the universal standard, 2 week notice of graduation. 3 days is absolutely ridiculous and doesn't allow for any sort of planning.

To hide behind the contract clauses seems absolutely ridiculous, THEY WRITE THE FUCKING CONTRACTS. Which leads me to believe that Sakitty blew up or stormed out over a recent meeting or Revelation.

I mean look at the girl's response to new submembers, appearing with them as recently as the 24hr TV marathon.

Is there a chance that Saki was being extremely childish and did something that stepped over the line, maybe, but no extreme recent appearance evidence even gives a remote hint of that. Young girls are definitely fickle but it's not like Ogawa was just a one audition type of member, she went through eggs, they developed those bonds together and they launched successfully together and were growing and growing.

If she didn't like the business so much why would she immediately snag an Oha Girl position?

The member responses are pretty vague and generic graduation messages, not helping explain much either.

I guess it is possible she just stubbornly walked away from it all

>>7781287
>>7781408
Read Tsunku's last paragraph of his comment, he calls her an inexperienced student and that an "experienced" adult would never leave their job halfway through. He sounds pissed about something, that's for sure.

this is now a Sakitty (Sakichy?) thread

I guess she was tired of having to suck all the dick she needed to in order to stay in the industry.
Can't say I'm surprised.

So I guess Sakichy got the ultimate blame for the yakiniku incident, huh. What a shame.

If anyone needs to be fired, it is DAWA. She probably dates more guys than Reina does.

>>7782682
sakichy is leaving to lead a normal life where as those two are still idols or some form of it so it's not the same

>>7783002
>yakiniku incident
Please elaborate.

Like tears lost in the rain....

Sakichy, NOOOOOOOOOOO ;________;

After 3 days, you'll never see Sakitty perform live again

ayaka took them to eat yakiniku with guys from here >>7783002 if i remember correctly and they talked about it at a concert and their ustream show, somewhere along that

>>7783030
>>sakichy is leaving to lead a normal life where as those two are still idols or some form of it so it's not the same
But keep in mind Kanna got kicked with that exact explanation. They said she asked to lead a normal life when she was graduating. Obviously that's not what ended up happening which leads me to believe she never wanted or said that in the first place, so whatever.

>>7783002
>>So I guess Sakichy got the ultimate blame for the yakiniku incident, huh. What a shame.
lolwut. Not even a chance... DAWA was the one who orchestrated it and even then, they wouldn't kick one of them months later out of nowhere, not even DAWA. I think it's extremely safe to say it's absolutely unrelated to that incident.

>>7783863

I'm sure it had everything to do with Saki's reaction to the auditions. She looked devastated. I'm sure she made a scene. Both parties just said "fuck this".

>That feel when you will never be able to watch Sakichy grow before your eyes

>mfw these girls are average at best and there are millions of them walking around Japan at any time, yet non-Japanese think they're attractive

>>7783574
And why was this a scandal? Did they think it counts as dating or something?

>>7784198
Who's they? I don't want to get into this again, but DAWA took the rest of smileage out on a "date" type situation with her boyfriend and his friends. It was a scandal, it did happen, it wasn't allowed, nothing happened, that's all. I don't think it bears any relation to this situation, however.

>>7784298
and by "nothing happened" I mean no public repercussions were issued to the girls by UFA.

>>7783042
If you want to read up on the yakiniku scandal here is a good wiki that was specifically made for it and other s/mileage scandals:
http://w.livedoor.jp/yakinikujiken/

Saki is/was dating the guy named Genya(げんや) on that site, and DAWA is/was dating the guy named Ryota(りょーくん). The guy on the top right of ←this pic is Genya. Ryota kinda fell off the online radar after he learned that wotas figured out what he was doing, but genya kept blogging or twittering like an idiot up until a few weeks ago.

My guess is the staff gave them all a warning, but then Saki was the one that got caught again. The official explanation by tsunku is bullshit, Saki was obviously fired.

>>7785686
I can't compete with that. I just never knew about the Kanon guy, I knew about the rest, so lame.

So glad I'm a C-ute wota.

>>7785748
Yeah I agree with you there. C-ute is probably the purest group in H!P. Either that or they are the best at hiding scandals, lol.

Honestly, all of s/mileage should have been fired by now for they stuff they pulled. I guess dating doesn't really get you fired in H!P anymore though (see: Reina, Miya, Momo, etc), so it makes me wonder what Saki could have done to get herself fired. Maybe she simply was tired of being an idol and of hiding relationships, huh.....

Where are City, Rabutan, Fuujin, and those other stalkers when you need them? They need to do some detective work on this one. They defect to AKB I assume?

>>7785900
>>They defect to AKB I assume?
More or less. Rabu was around not that long ago, less than 3 months ago, iirc.

>>Maybe she simply was tired of being an idol and of hiding relationships, huh.....
I think it's more of this rather than her getting kicked out. Given, as you say, how much shit Smileage has done and no punishment given, can't imagine she got kicked for something she did.

>>I guess dating doesn't really get you fired in H!P anymore though
Yep, I got that notion for quite a while now. It's like if you're caught dating you have to be like "I won't break up with him, fire me" to get punished. It's whatever.

Being an idol should not be a fucking battle between you and staff about trying to hide what you're not supposed to be doing and whoever hides it best doesn't get fired. I'd rather they allowed dating if there's gonna be so much odd tension about who's hiding a relationship and who is committed to doing their job.

lol God damnit, Buono! advertising Piranha 3D ;___;

>>7786963
A beginner myself, but it's something about her commenting on a blog about "Oogaki's seed", "it's bitter but delicious" and "Oogaki-kun's sperm" or something to that effect, apparently.

>>7786963
>>7786999
Ookaki(大柿) is one of the yakiniku guys and was said to be dating Kanon. On Kanon's blog she wrote that she was eating 大柿の種 (Persimmon seed) which is a type of snack in Japan, but obviously can be taken multiple ways since it's his name, so it can be interpreted that she was talking about his sperm... and she said "It's bitter but delicious."

In the comments section of her blog, all the regular fans were saying stuff like "Ah, I love those too!" and stuff, but the yakiniku guys commented 「花音まずいだろｗｗｗ」 or in english, "Kanon you're so bad... lololol." Because they knew what was really being said.

Basically, the entire scandal was wrapped up in these "secret messages" being communicated through their public blogs to the guys. Other examples are extremely prominent, such as one guy asking on his personal blog what's the best treatment for a cold, hours later on Yuuka's blog she writes at the bottom in a P.S. message--

>>P.S.
>>風邪薬は
>>パブロンエースがきくよっ

P.S.
The best answer to a cold is
Paburon S.

Which prompted epic pics from 2ch involving Yuuka advertising for paburon lmao.

I don't even begin to understand why the Smileage girls thought secret messages through their public blogs would work. Especially since these yakiniku guys posted a lot on 2ch and even claimed to be dating the girls and posted their blogs publicly so the connection was retardedly easy to make.

>>7787621
Alright, thanks for the more detailed explanation!

It seems weird to me, too. I'm one of those who dislikes the whole "no dating" policy, but it seems to me like these girls are making it way too apparent. Especially the thing Kanon said there is just... explicit, even. Stuff no one with common sense would say, even if they have no reason to play innocent and virginal.

Yepperz.

>>7787692
I know. To me, it's not an issue of not dating, it's an issue of not being trashy... And talking about how someone's seed tastes on a public blog is trashy.

>>7788648
Who knows the exact details of why/if she meant what she thought she posted. I still really like Kanon.

Oh look, that fucking faggot Reinya is reveling in unconfirmed and scandal speculations like the little rat that he fucking is.

>Ravens
>Defense

>>7788686
Can you tell me about the DAWA scandals? I don't into moonspeak

>>7788750
That is the scandal that involved them all. If you mean her exact part in it, there's the part about her pointing out a "random" fan at the concert for not wearing a Smileage shirt and it ended up being Ookaki (the previously mentioned Kanon boyfriend), which is just retarded that she would do that looool.

>>7788707
>>Oh look, that fucking faggot Reinya is reveling in unconfirmed and scandal speculations like the little rat that he fucking is.
Fuck off you stupid insecure piece of shit, I just translated the part that's on the Japanese website about the scandal and gave my opinion. I even said I still like them no matter what, so just give up and fuck off.

At least we caught up for a while~ When Redskins have to put in their 2nd and 3rd string I'm not sure how we won't end up winning. Keep watching, friend~

Oh, and Maimi's got giant man sized feet. Maimai's feet are alright. They make up for her fat, lumpy face.

>>7795342
Wait, you're a DAWA fan and you're making fun of another idol's face?

lol.

Anyone interested in buying some C-ute goods or Berryz CDs before I try my luck on H!O? Rare FC goods, C-ute/Mai shirts and towels. And got a few random old Berryz singles, Monkey Dance and Jingisukan and stuff.

>>7 Theories Behind Ogawa Saki’s Departure

Just started reading now, so haven't read anything that you haven't, let's rage together. Apparently a few are from 2ch, so should be an interesting read regardless.

>>The reaction to a scandal would have been much more spontaneous and leave UFA no time to prepare for damage control than as they did now. In addition, we would have likely heard something by now if she was caught in a scandal, since there isn’t really a reason for a magazine to keep itself from publishing the story anyway. The lack of any news tells me that this is unlikely, though not entirely impossible. Again, only time will tell.

Okay, I take it back, this shit is horrendous, the dude doesn't even know that there was a Smileage scandal before or that Ogawa was known to be dating someone... Fail journalism.
