Hello Station 14 – A Viewer’s Guide

I know I shouldn’t, but I feel a little bad that I didn’t get this out yesterday. I know the ten people reading this are probably super-bummed out that I’m late on the viewer’s guide and had to watch...

PASSPO – Candy Room PV

I know it has been a while since I posted anything substantial. My other responsibilities took its toll on both my time and my mental strength. It’s the same for all of you, I’m sure. The real shame...

Juice=Juice in “SA-MI-DA-RE Girls It’s Crazy”

While I was sleeping, we got a new PV from Juice=Juice. You remember them, the ones who had that song with the saxophone that drove me crazy. The ones with H!P Jesus a.k.a. DWEEB in front. This time,...

Mizuki shows us no quarter …

There has been a relentless onslaught of disgusting bikinis lately. Yesterday, I was enjoying the new AKB48 single “Sayonara Crawl” – crawling with flower bikinis. Although I should comment that...

Hello! Station 15 – A Viewer’s Guide

This week, we get Nakanishi Kana as our host.  You don’t know her?  I’m not totally surprised: she’s a part of the new S/mileage and is NOT named “Dracula”.  Kana gets the action going quickly with a...

Perfume’s “Magic of Love”

Can I talk about Perfume? Well, I’m going to talk about this new PV regardless. And, I’m going to pretend that we all know about Perfume already- a pretty safe assumption, I think. Because who...

PASSPO –“Step and Go”

Do you like your idols with CG graphics? Have I got the PV for you. PASSPO’s “Step and Go” has the “B class idols” (See Shaku-Uma TV) in a variety of CG scenarios, like they are components of video...

So long, Tanaka Reina

I don’t know how this snuck up on me, but before I knew it my initial favorite in Morning Musume is gone. I think I might have a skinny girl thing … Even though she’s got a laughably asymetric face...

Hello! Station 16- a Viewer’s Guide

Another week of Nakanishi Kana! This edition is packed with performances, and like last week, Kanana keeps the action coming at a decent pace. These performances seem to all come from Hello! Project’s...

AKB48 “Sayonara Crawl”

It would be difficult to ignore singles from AKB48, as I’ve done so far in my blog. I’m not one of those Hello! Fans who demonize everything 48, and I’m definitely not under the illusion that one...

Happy Birthday, Sayashi Riho

Little Sayashi Riho has turned 15! I don’t know about you, but I always get the feeling that this little girl is desperate to be just a little older. She always pushes her personal envelope just a...

Hello! Station 17- A Viewer’s Guide

Another week, another Hello! Station. If I seem to be writing these later and later each week, it’s because of my real life getting in the way of my wota life. Hopefully my schedule will clear up as we...

Berryz Kobo –“Golden Chinatown”

It’s one of the universal truths of 244. Berryz Kobo is better when they are stupid. Remember “Monkey Dance“? Loved it. “Seishun Bus Guide” and “Ryussei Boy” are equally silly and just as loved....

Hello! Station 19- A Viewer’s Guide

And yet, another Hello! Station Viewer’s guide makes its way a couple of days late to the party. Judging by Chinami’s festive pose (above), I don’t think she minds. This week’s host is Tokunaga...

S/mileage –“Atarashii Watashi ni Nare!/Yattaruchan”

I was looking through the clutter on my desk and I found these letters written to each side of the new S/mileage single. Is it just me, or is the double-A side trick just a clever way to get UF to pay...

Masui Mio in UTB Vol.205

You know, I’m really enjoying the push that MioMio is getting. I don’t know if it’s her getting more confident or if PASSPO finally figured out who’s going to butter their bread. Jam this girl in...
