Tsukishima Kirari starring Kusumi Koharu "Koi Hanabi"

One good reason to get the album.

I wonder who are the boys that sing as SHIPS, and if they would even try to take money from them too...

Nice song~, and no offence, but Koharu's voice ruins the mood of the video :lol: It doesn't fit slow moments very well

I like the song. It didn't disappoint especially after Sugao Flavor. Koharu does sound a little raw but it's still bearable and in a way makes the song distinct.

Kirari moves to Russia Pop Idol in the second season? xD Like the judo girl in Yawara! anime, Kirari's goal should be to attempt a world song festival or something like it haha. The new song says nothing on me, but it might grow with more listens.



EDIT: I have to say the song has finally grown on me. LOL How could I doubt on my lil Koha? KUSUMI KUSUMI KUSUMI!

Thanks for the rip tama-chan!

Upon first listen, I'm really liking Balalaika. I think I love just about everything about the song. I knew I could count on Koharu to continue being so great! :D

What's that? Were they running out of time and did only one photo of her and that's the one that made it to the Single V cover? -_-

Last time orange was used... Ne~e! :D

That was a good perf. I still don't like her hair like that, but if it attracts kids.. :P Song is more awesome in good quality. Yay Koharu!
