Just letting y'all know I've moved all Berryz Kobo member threads to Graduate Plaza except for Momoko, who still appears to be active in H!P with Country Musume? I'm also aware the Cap'n is going to have some kind of an advising position, but I don't think that means she's still a H!P member. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I missed the Berryz final concert because I had important business to do at uni. But maybe I'll do a PV marathon soon. :3
I turned the stream on (muted) at uni at one point and loved to immediately recognize they were doing Special Generation from the choreography.
That's still one of the coolest H!P songs...
EDIT: Some gems from the Berryz thread
2005:
- people being shocked when Berryz Special Generation sold more than W and Viyuden
- people wishing happy 11th birthday to Risako
holy shit she was ten??
- people freaking out about some rumours that a Berryz member might join Momusu (cuz that totally happened!)
2006:
- in January tama already calling Yurina a tall freak.
I can't believe I'm saying this but Momo was so Yaguchi!
So appropriate considering Momo ended up becoming Momochi.
- I did NOT used to like Risako's voice. lol Well I changed my mind!
- June 2006 again rumours of some Berryz joining MM or starting a group with Koharu or Eggs joining Berryz.
There really was too little action back in the day since everyone went crazy with speculation.
- And in December paranoia about Berryz breaking up.
Shit, this shows how much faith fans had in UF* at the time!
Ahhh I'm too lazy to go through all of it, but good times...
