Here's the other B-side for the Niigaki limited edition:


Apparently she already covered this song back when the whole Hello! Cover thing was going on at the end of 2010, but this one has a slightly new arrangement with the beat. I'm digging the electronic intro and additions, and Gaki's singing sounds better this time around. While I would've preferred a new, original song, it's still a nice send-off for her.

Preview of the PV for Risa's "Egao ni Namida":



Very simplistic and repetitive, but I couldn't help but enjoy watching...her smile and upbeat vibe are just so hypnotic. I do hope we get to see what those photos are that she's looking at in the full version, assuming they're random shots of her throughout her H!P career like in Aichan's grad song.

Cute!! I love her outfit!!

I also love how she raised her pinky finger for the "yakusoku nan da yo" line, because I did as well ROFL

Did somebody watch J-Melo today? Morning Musume sang Renai Hunter, Kare to issho ni omise ga shitai, and Pyoko pyoko ultra, and then along with C-ute they also sang Kono chikyu no heiwa wo honki de negatterundayo, it was frkn amazing!

Now this is a feat.

Morning Musume’s 49th single, “Renai Hunter“, has sold 41,000 copies in its first week, ranking 3rd on the Oricon Weekly Single Rankings for the week of April 23rd.

This marks the group’s 49th consecutive single to rank in the top 10 since their debut in January of 1988. They now hold the record for the most consecutive top 10 singles, surpassing Hamasaki Ayumi (48 singles), B’z (47), and SMAP/THE ALFEE (46).

“Renai Hunter” is leader Niigaki Risa’s last single as she will be graduating from both Morning Musume and Hello! Project after the final night of the group’s nationwide tour.

Niigaki commented, “I’m very happy to be able to leave behind this huge record! This is all thanks to the support of the fans, the staff, and everyone involved. Also, I’m thankful to all the members who have graduated.” She continued, “Morning Musume will continue to do their best to be a group that will be loved by everyone 10, 20 years from now.”
