And caps from today's Bijo Gaku, which consisted wholly of photoshoot footage. No sign of it on tube quite yet...

In the first cap (the big one), Riho reminds me of that video of 6th gen's first photo shoot. The one where Reina wouldn't smile.

Fuku-chan and Riho look really pro. Probably because of Fuku-chan's Egg experience and Riho's...Riho-ness. lol Awww, Zukki is so cute!!! She's silly and playful, and like a ray of sunshine.

(That's so cheesy) She's my least favorite, but I can't deny how adorable she is. WHOA at Eripon!!!

She looks so model-like~~~

I can't get over how awesome this new gen is

I'm really warming up to Eripon :3 As "ponytail girl" she was my first pick and all, and every time she smiles I remember why LOL
And when she's not smiling, her eyes look so vulnerable, like she's about to cry... it's kind of beautiful. lol

I made strange noises out loud when I saw Riho's screencaps; she's really cute as a kitten LOL

Fukuchan is flawless, and Kanyon just keeps being super adorable.

It's crazy how at least now initially it feels like there's not a single weak link here xD

And the segment.

rokun · « **Reply #285 on:** February 03, 2011, 11:30:51 PM »

A little bit of what they said about each kyuuki:

The narrator said Fuku-chan, with her experience as an Egg, did well at giving various expressions, and the cameraman complimented her on her smile.

The staff and cameraman mentioned while shooting Riho that she did really well and has good balance on her legs. Then the narrator added how this was helped by her dance experience and such.

Kanon was different - it was her first ever photo session, so she had to go through a bit more coaching

like in how to move not just part of her body for different poses. Fuku-chan and Riho were amused while watching her.

When she did the jumping, she said it was so fun! She was so natural and well... not so professional as the others.

The narrator introduced that it was also Eripon's first ever photoshoot (despite model experience? maybe it wasn't a full-on photoshoot like this). Then afterward the cameraman asked her how she did so well in the poses, and if she'd practiced on her own. She responded that she'd seen many other photos (there's that idol fangirl again), and thought from them how she could copy some of their looks herself.

Oh...my...gawd...

I was looking again at their ages while watching this clip, and I got to thinking how Zukki could totally be "daddy's little girl." Then it hit me...I'm actually old enough/at the age where I could pass as her (or any of the other 9th gen, for that matter) dad.

^ *pats JFC* There there. It'll be ok.

Really like how this little segment shows them off. And I finally get why Riho gets that blank expressionless look: she's nervous!

Her natural look is a wee bit more relaxed and open.

And I like how Ai and Aika noticed her nervousness and did something about it.

And so that's why Eripon looks so cool in all her shots, the cameraman asked her for that kinda look! But I must admit, it suits her.

Kanon was probably the least professional, but her smile was also the most exuberant/natural. She just has such a nice fresh feel to her.

And of course, Fukuchan! Well she seems typically H!P-ified already, so there's not much to comment about. Though I find her and Riho's amusement while Kanon was taking her turn funny.

Really loving 9th gen. They're just so easy to like.

That was cute how Aichan was poking her arm to get Yasshii's attention after seeing how nervous she was.

I wonder if one of her nervous habits is holding her fist to her chin, kind of like how Zukki was squeezing her lips with the backs of her fingers.

Then Aichan seemed to notice the scar on her chin, which got them talking a little bit.

End result:

9th gen

Don't fret, JFC~

Seriously- I love this gen! D: My fangirling is getting to the point of forgetting the other girls are still in Momusu!

>____> If Hello!StoreUSA gets these sets I might just have to buy them all.... or 1 members when I work out exactly who my favourite is... (right now I'm flipping wildly between the four!!~)
