Today is the official release date of Hello! Channel mook. Along with other H!P artists there is also Miya in this paperback edition. On these two pages Miya goes shopping with a couple of other H!P girls and gets the whole ensemble for her paying only 9.700 Yen all in all. I guess the lesson here is that you don’t need to spend all your money to get new decent clothes and accessories for you.

Listen to Tsuukai! »« Attack of the Creepy Bows
Should we be worried? Should we declare the state of emergency? Should we lock Hello! Project’s costume designer in the closet and let her/him free only if she/he promises to stop making those… those strange things which have been appearing on the tops of many H!P artists’ hairdos these days?
That peculiar thing on Miya’s head keeps just growing and growing. Poor girl! Soon the thing is larger than Miya herself. Hope t’s not swallowing the whole girl for a lunch next time it’s getting hungry.
I was living in the belief that our world could be again a peaceful place and we could live without a fear of Creepy Bows when Tsuji Nozomi got married and graduated from H!P. Oh, how wrong I was… again.

Miya goes shopping »« Happy Homeroom (pt 2)
This second part of “Berryz Kobo no Happy Homeroom” scans are fron the period when BK’s 10th single “Jiriri Kiteru” was released (March 2006). On Vol.14 the main picture shows girls on the stage of BK Concert Tour 2006 Haru ~Nyoki Nyoki Champion!~ dressed in Jiriri PV costumes.

I could/can spend hours watching Otakebi Boy WAO! Event V DVD and especially Miya’s close-up version on it. I’m seriously saying that Miya is the hottest girl in Hello! Project at the moment. Of course it’s only my super subjective point of view but as you ogle these captures and check out the video clip from this DVD I’m sure you can agree with me at least a little bit if even a bit more.

Happy Homeroom (pt 2) »« B.K.I.News.Network
Although Berryz Kobo has done dozens of songs since group’s birth their first single “Anata Nashi de wa Ikite Yukenai” (Can’t Live Without You) is still one of the most appreciated BK songs for me. That swaying reggae rhythm with a hint of hip hop chant does the job. And as I’ve said before, I just love madly the PV of this BK’s debut. Young girls dressed in cool looking tartan skirts / trousers dancing on a small stage in the middle of Saitama Super Arena. It’s a historical moment for them in two ways. The PV is their first one and after three years hard work they made their return to SSA becoming the youngest female group ever to perform there.
At that time this single and PV were recorded Rii was only 9 years old. She turned to 10 one month after single was released. Amazing isn’t it! And now our Japanese 7 years old “singing dancing exciting pet” Cuca has finally done her “Anata Nashi de wa Ikite Yukenai” dance cover in front of her mom’s cam. Actually this is Cuca’s ONE HUNDREDTH video upload to her YouTube Channel! At the age of 7 she is already a legend. I would be quite surprised if we don’t see Cuca in the Japanese entertainment business in the coming days when she has grown up a little bit more.
So here’s Cuca’s version of “Anata Nashi de wa Ikite Yukenai”
