Finished watching HPH!!!
The live version of Gag was great indeed, for the band's part. But Sayumi's vocals just suck, period. HEH. Well, it was tolerable for some parts, but the high notes that were so off they weren't from this world were just painful. I don't know why the heck they gave that song to Sayu because it's so fricking hard to sing and she's not one to take huge challenges. Oh well. Sayu was cute, of course.
Something terrible I noticed when Maki's interview started - they've added audience comment noises to the interviews! That sucks! I liked the intimate atmosphere in the previous HPHs when you could only hear the girls and their every reaction, laughter. It was sweet. And now there are stupid audience "whoo" and "whee" and "har har" and "oooh" noises. A really bad decision from whoever-decides-this-stuff.
And again, watching the videos of the girls doing other stuff was boring and didn't really tell much new about them. Please tell me they'll go back to full discussions. Especially since next up are Risa and Eri, who are most likely friends and capable of talking about whatever.
Chisato was okay. I realized her way of talking is kind of weird. I mean, I hardly know Japanese, but the little I knew was no help when I was trying to catch a word or two from her speech. It was just blurry! Her defeating Sayumi in arm-wrestling came as a no surprise since Sayu's just so incredibly weak. Heh. As for her performance, it wasn't much to look at because she just did the same movements with her arms all the time and almost looked like she was about to cry at parts. However, I found her voice likeable, though it "broke" a bit at times... It sounded fresh, better than I expected from her. Oh and I like Chisato, it's just that this HPH interview with Sayu was nothing special. She's much funnier backstage with little Mai.
Back to Gocchin... Well, I'm tired so I wasn't paying tons of attention here. I think I kept staring at Maki's legs (because they're awesome) and wondering if she's happy. (I just do that a lot with Gocchin.) I loved it when Sayu said FIGHT~ before Maki's perf, it was so random and funny. As for Namida no hoshi, I don't actually listen to/watch Maki's ballad performances often, but this one was very enjoyable. As a H!P fan you can just sometimes forget what good vocals actually are about, but then someone who knows what they're doing starts to sing and you just get all silent and respectful... Uh oh, my point was, Maki's performance was pretty awesome, almost magical. Or I'm just very, very tired.
Shortly put, not the best HPH, but okay.
