If Maki turns out to be successful (I'm positive she will), I want Aya to jump ship as well~ I love Aya in H!P but she seriously needs to do something to "spice" up her image and save herself.   :badluck:

I saw the rest of the pictures on her website~ <<the high budgetness and pictures were hypnotising :lol:
She looks stunning, like always . . . :nya: and I totally agree that they don't need another Koda Kumi.


Bring on the high budgetness~


. . . Once again, Kumi has competition  :wahaha:

^Yeah, I agree. Poor Aya has just been stuck in this bubble-gum, squeeky clean, kind of boring image that H!P has stuck her in as a soloist, when she's very capable of a much more interesting output of music (which we saw in her GAM experience, if you ask me... that was some really good music). I hope this will be an inspiration to her to move forward in her goal to be a real singer, too.

I keep checking Gocchin's official site and hoping there will be more announcements, like something about a coming single. I want to hear her singing something new so badly.  :lol:

i just wonder, maki is under other company now..so, does she will be able to sing her previous songs after this.?? as all of them is under UFA copyright...or does she will be consider as newborn (debut) artist.??

I think it depends on the respective egos of both companies, UFA and Avex. UFA could be bitter and stick to their song rights and Avex could be arrogant and not want anything to do with work by another company. However, if they didn't, it could be in both of their interests if she did sing her old stuff now and then. For UFA, it would remind people that that is where Maki came from and look good on them. For Avex, it would take fans back to the time where they first knew Maki and re-establish the "bond" between artist and fan, instead of establish a feeling like she is a completely new artist, starting from scratch, without those prior connections to fans.

Hopefully the songs can be passed on. That's what most, if not all, fans want as well :)

Gocchin has gone through so much over the past year..hopefully things can turn out well for her! :D As for Ayaya, her sales are really pathetic at UFA and it's a shame because she can sing. I think if Gocchin becomes a success, more will then turn to other record company when they are over that age around 23. Oh well, but to be frank, Maki is really different from the rest  :P

Maki!

I kind of was hoping she would go for a more unique image, but I guess it doesn't really matter, as long as she's back :D

I wonder what UFA thinks of the transfer? *pictures them smashing things*

Exactly. I love Aya and she has an incredible voice that blows me away at times, but she has idol appeal... Maki is different in the sense that she has star appeal... It's not just the sexiness, from the moment she joined, she had something special and that has just grown over the years... I can see Gocchin making it away from the idol image as an actual main artist, but I can't see Aya (or my beloved Miki) doing that... There is something different about Gocchin, but that's exactly why we love her too :heart:

I bet that they feel uneasy now.

The contract between UFA and Maki already ended last October. But on the contract, there was a clause , "the artist cannot join other agency for six months after the termination of the contract".
So gocchin waited for six months.

Also there was the commercial contract for Sandisk. The Sandisk contrace ended by this May.
IMO, UFA refused to announce or admit the fact that Gocchin already quit the company because of this Sandisk deal.

I'd like to dedicate my 500th post to Goto Maki, whom I love and will support forever!!!!!!
My original favorite member of H!P will now become my favorite singer! I know she has the talent to go far. Avex was a good move and will allow her to work to her potential. She was good in H!P and will become even better with this move.

GOCCHIN FOREVERRRRR!!! XD

Gocchin sang Saving All My Love for You by Whitney Houston at a shareholders meeting for Avex. Her voice sounds amazing. She's really going to be so great this time around.  :heart: Here's (right click and save as) an MP3 recording of it and here there are some pictures from the event. She also gives a little speech at the end of the performance.  :wub: It's really good to hear her voice again.

I didn't think it would seem much different, but it does feel so weird to hear her sing again and seeing the pics and knowing she's not part of H!P now... Its weird, but cool!

She sounds sooo cute and you can really tell she has worked hard on her voice... she's always been great, but the ending then was amazing! :heart:
I'm glad she's already in the swing of things :D

I love hearing all that power in her voice.  I knew she was good before, but I think she was a little limited with her H!P songs.... so yay. :heart: She sounds amazing and I can't wait to hear her first official non-H!P release.

I haven't said anything about her comeback yet, but it's because it's still unreal to me, but when I listened to the clip I realized, she really is back.... She sounds GREAT *_*, there's something diffrent with her voice and not in a bad way *_* When she talks in the end of the clip, damn I feel like crying, I'VE MISSED THAT VOICE  :luvluv2: Her english still sound funny and cute~

MAKI WELCOME BACK  :heart: :heart: I'm looking forward to her next single.

I still feels kind of strange to have her in the J-Music section of the forum, for me she's still H!P somehow ^^

And wow for that Whitney cover, GO MAKI!!!!

I can't wait to her first releases with avex.

Just listened to it and wow, she's definitely been practicing. Her english wasn't too bad but I couldn't understand her at some parts. Besides that, I've missed the sound of her voice.
Avex better start dishing out the singles NOW!!!! XD

'Engrish' aside, she sounds incredible!!  :wub:   Understatement of the year saying I can't wait til we finally hear news of a single!

Also~ I'm not sure if anyone else heard this 'rumour,' but back when it was floating around that Goto would be going with avex, it was also being said that she going to perform this summer at an avex thing... I was thinking a-nation, but then again, this could definitely be another rumour.  XD Has anyone heard anything about that?

^ Yeah, I have heard a rumour similar to that but I haven't been able to find much to back it up. I guess we'll see what happens, if it happens.
