Shouko's father was a big influence on her life. When she was five, she was given horror manga by her father to read, his reason being that she couldn't become an adult without reading them.
Is close friends with Kawabe Chieco and Aoi Sora:D
Shoko's funny. There was that one youtube video of her getting measured while sleeping. This. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkST1eMOpVI)
WOW... Shoko is even more awesome than I had originally thought.

SHOKOTAAAN ⊂二二二(^ω^)二二二つ
It seems that she was in Fast and Furious - Tokyo Drift but i havnt niticed her
She posted a short video on her blog (http://yaplog.jp/strawberry2/archive/8849) XD:o She's "eating" her cat again.... XD
Shokotan posted like gazillion entries about Matsuda Seiko's concert she attanded XD I think she even bought her 74 CD box set, that costs 100,000 yen, since she played the songs from it on her iPod or something o_O;;;
Since it's an mp3 player she could have dled it maybe (well she is an otaku)
Just watched Music Fighter for 7/22 and for the preview for next week... Shoko-tan is the main guest!!! Plus some suspect cosplay by Aoki. LOL.
is there even a pic where she not cute?

At first, I thought it was a fanmail from a child, but using an online translator it seems like it's what Shoko's dad wrote to her when he was sick... :cry:
And she's crying in that pic - Did Shoko draw it because Pluto is not considered a planet anymore?
I'm usually slow to realize such things but after that pic of her with the solar system book, I'm sure she did that on purpose.

I *LOVE* Shokotan! :heart: She's so pretty!^^ I can't believe I never noticed this thread here, although I did search a thread for her in the LLF, with no luck XD
Love the pic spam, though! :heart: Shokotan ftw!
the song is purdy~ its the theme song for three different tv shows. some pokemon series, a TBS show called "wanagona" and a show on M-ON! called "YUMEREJI"
anyone know who produced? remindes me of a malibu convertible song...
(http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/8827/img20070112tyn6.jpg)
<3
I think each song on the single is a theme for some show, not only "Strawberry melody" :o
M-1.ストロベリmelody
作詞:渡邊亜希子・中川翔子、作曲・編曲:Shinnosuke(SOUL’d OUT)
<TBS『ワナゴナ』テーマソング>
M-2.ポケモンなりきりサンデー
作詞:戸田昭吾・中川翔子、作曲・編曲:たなかひろかず
<テレビ東京『ポケモンサンデー』テーマソング(2007/01~03 O.A.)
M-3.Dear my saint-girl
作詞:亜伊林、作曲・編曲:高浪敬太郎
<M-ON!『ユメレジ』テーマソング>
So "Strawberry melody" is produced by Shinnosuke of SOUL'd OUT and it's ending theme of TBS "Wanagona", "Pokemon nari kiri Sunday" is ending theme of TV Tokyo "Pokemon Sunday", and "Dear my saint-girl" is m-on "Yumereji" theme... what I like the most, is that all shows are on different channels so Shoko gets more exposure \O/ Plus Shoko likes SOUL'd OUT XD

I would just also like to note that I was the first to bring the great Shoko to the IRC, KEKEKEKEEKEKEKeKeKEk o-o

Shokotan releases anime songs cover album! 2007/05/02 on sale
Not much info out, but 2 of the songs included are "Zankoku na Tenshi no Thesis" (the Evangelion song Shoko performed on Domoto Kyoudai) & "Romantic Ageru yo" (from Dragonball).
You can pre-order Shokotan's new pb @ HMV now:
http://www.hmv.co.jp/product/detail/2537795
Since Amazon killed the economy shipping option, the other way is Yesasia, I can't find a link there yet though :/
Yeah, I noticed that about Amazon! XD Thank you for the HMV link... I haven't used them before, but if YesAsia takes too long in putting it up, I'll order from them :heart:
aedon: Is that Shokotan next to Ayu in your sig? She looks great! :inlove: YesAsia needs to hurry up posting her new PB
btw, maybe Shokotan's thread should be moved to Ladylove? or J-Music? I mean, she's more of a [singing] idol than an actress :lol:
I think the logical choice would be Ladylove, and I suggested it before, but I was ignored. :O

Actual clip of her drawing process with sets of some expensive pens and markers. She draws Sakura from Sakura Taisen and a bunch of other stuff. It's really quite impressive. Her style is very clean, despite using a pen. I didn't know she was that good, haha.

Mamitasu is actually Mami (Magical Angel Creamy Mami (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magical_Angel_Creamy_Mami), it was just finished being fansubbed if anyone's interested -> batch (http://a.scarywater.net/live-evil/%5BLive-eviL%5D_Magical_Angel_Creamy_Mami_Eps_1_-_52_%5BCOMPLETE%5D.torrent)).

Shokotan to release original album:rofl:
Mon, February 11, 2008 (6:14am EST)
On Monday, idol Shoko Nakagawa held a special live event for 200 lucky fans who bought a copy of her new single "snow tears" or her latest "Shokotan Blog" book.
On Sunday, she had announced through her blog that she will release her first original album on March 19, titled "Big Bang!!!" The album will include her 4 released singles and 7 new songs, one of which is a bonus track.
After Monday's concert, she held a press conference to publicly announce the album. During the event, she boldly declared that if the album takes the #1 spot on the charts, she will run naked through Nakano Broadway (a popular spot for otakus). However, she admitted that topping the charts is very unlikely for her.

sporting a nice 6pack and a sexy scar :drool:
Her appearance on the latest HEY!HEY!HEY! was fantastic. She's on with aiko, Amuro Namie, and Matsuda Seiko. She goes into crazy fangirl mode when she gets to meet Matsuda Seiko, like can hardly even talk cause it sounds like she's on the verge of crying kinda fangirl mode, and then some nice hidden-cam action from the pre-planning of the show when she finds out Seiko is going to be on there with her. :lol: :lol:
Torrent of it can be found over on JPOPsuki. It's the raw MPEG-2, so it's a little big. If anyways wants an encode just lemme know.

It's a good album! I'm not even a fan but I love it. All your fault aedon!!! ...thanks i guess.

The cast for the "Gegege no Kitaro" movie sequel keeps on growing, and the latest publicized addition is talento Shoko Nakagawa, who is a big self-professed fan of the franchise. Nakagawa will play the beautiful and intelligent ghost Fuguruma Youbi, who aids Kitaro (Eiji Wentz) in his adventure.
^That was a month ago :lol:
Cool to hear about the new single. I wasn't really feeling Calling Location, so I hope I like the new one better.
Just found out she's gonna be at Anime Expo... Anyone else going, I might catch it if anyone else is :P
Her little forum thing was today and I didn't know about it, which probably been better to go to since you can actually probably talk to her -____-
You were wearing an H!P shirt?! Something you made yourself?I made stencils and just spray painted it on a shirt~ :D
Thanks for those videos.You're welcome. The mc was some asian dude. Definitely not irish nor an irish accent.
Sounded like the person introducing her was Irish?
awesome single
did anyone watch 「しょこたん☆シャイ毛まつり in SMOJ」 a few hours ago on the Sony Music website?

No, I didn't know about it.
I think her song is possibly the best in the top 10. She's up against various songs, from a child singer, a rock band, various pop bands and a serious ballad. The Arashi song maybe my second favourite, but the chorus I think lets that song down.

Just listened to Tsuzuku Sekai for the first time. Love it! Shokotan rocks. I can't wait for the new concert DVD, definitely my most anticipated release XD Anyone found the setlist?
^Thanks! Great info. Killer setlist too. Actually, not many surprises, because she doesn't have that many songs. :lol:
They really are expensive, aren't they.. why can't they just be in the 3200-3800 yen range. Aya Ueto's DVD are also more expensive than others :-\ Note: I'm talking about the prices @ CDJapan.
Amazon.co.jp has an awesome price for it but international shipping for anything on there is expensive ><Just add a few items. They use FedEx so its the initial shipping that is expensive, the more items the less it is per item (e.g. I just pre-ordered this concert plus 3 more items, shipping dropped to less then 20% of the total price).
the new dvd cover looks similar to her first concert dvd. the fonts, the concept.I'm expecting some vocal improvement, but that's about it. She has not that many new songs released that there will be a whole new concert filled with it.
while i'm expecting sometin' new

What are you supposed to select on the pulldown menu? And what is the box above that for as well? This covers address but I don't know what I put in the these areas. The last line I can put an address down.
The first box is email I've worked out, the second is name, and I think the one above the comments box is nickname. I guessed the first button is submit.

Did it happen? I looked at 9 but just a black screen. Then I was unable to reopen that small window again, it kept shutting.
Also did anyone see サンキューギザ☆マッチ!~中川翔子 LIVE IN U.S.A.~? It was a half hour broadcast of her time in the US.

Yeah, it started at 9pm in Japan so it's different if you live in another time zone.
There were a few preview clips of the AX08 concert and Donyoku Matsuri 2008.
She read a few fan mail but I don't think mine got read. Thousands get sent so it's hard to get it in ><
She was really hyper throughout the whole thing too (actually she's always hyper for all the broadcasts). She was cosplaying as Nia and did a few awesome Gurren Lagann impressions.
I recorded the whole thing with my digital camera though if anyone is interested in watching it. I don't know how to record live streaming so this is the only way ><.

Thanks ><
I decided to suck it up and keep it since they probably won't refund shipping (and I have to ship it back to them too ><)
At least they came with some awesome stickers ><
I've watch doryoku matsuri so many times now!! I love it so much!!
My stupid brother that insults everything I like tried to insult her and I wasn't having any of it! Never insult shokotan!! She is better than them <33333
So when's she performing at a UK con/expo??? T___T
@StreakInTheSky no he's not but he sometimes thinks i am xD
When do you think she'll do another or has she started? I've been out of the shokotan loop for a while now I feel like I know nothing >_<
I saw some pics on her blog that were from handshakes and concert eventy things, I guess that's what you're talking about.
She has some awesome fans!
Shokotan fans are really awesome ><
The new ballad I guess will be the second song on the next single just like Through the Looking Glass.
So when's she performing at a UK con/expo??? T___T
Hi I'm new here but I've been watching the forum for a while now :)
There was a show called M-ON that covered Shokotan's experience at Anime Expo. Someone uploaded it on youtube :D
They showed some interviews of people who were waiting in line for the autograph session! Didn't someone say they were going to see her from Canada? Cus I think they're in it!
I looked on the internet at that a few months ago and there seemed to be a joining fee + an annual fee, so it seemed alot particularly as it would be all in Japanese. From what I remember there may have been a link to an internet forum for members (unless I'm confusing it with somewhere else).
@starry01482 don't forget she became famous as a 'photobook idol' originally.
The shouting 'hai' along is a very very very common thing in japan, all their artists do it. It's to encourage the audience to it and generally get the crowd going. I can imagine it's pretty intense in person.
In the case of Shoko, her past is her greatest asset towards her singing career and isn't a handicap. She's a gravure idol, she started as one and still is. As a singer, she would never have made it this far if she never did the stuff before. In Japan, doing gravure isn't looked down upon, lots of Japan's greatest celebrities have done it, and it helped boost their careers to some extent. She's a better singer than Leah, and has way better songs imo, but a "singer" she is not. From how I see it, singing is just a part of her career as an idol. Leah on the other hand is more of the opposite, she's using gravure as a platform to boost her singing career.
Haven't got it to play yet, it says I need to acquire a license. I'll keep trying though.
I did notice last weeked there were some pictures which I thought probably related to the fan meeting.

did someone catch and record kirei a la mode matsuri on SMOJ?
i missed the first half of it because i was confused what time it started at ><

No sorry, I didn't know when it was on.
If you still have the SMOJ video you said you'd upload I'd like to download it though :)
I thought there might be another album around Christmas because of the large number of singles beforehand. Shiny Gate was the best song among the latest singles in my opinion. The video for Kirei a la Mode was quite good, though I think it could have had a little more variety than her just standing or sitting in that armchair. Hopefully we'll still see more of the fun Shokotan in videos again like we did in the Shiny Gate video. The third track on the single wasn't bad but the main track was obviously the best one.
Does anyone have any previews of Shokotan's a la mode photobook?
Namida no Tane, Egao no Hana PV O_OWhoa, that has got to be the sexiest Shokotan PV I have ever seen. Anyways mad respect for keeping our Shokotan thread alive! I'm not a hardcore-fan but I do follow this thread and your epic posts. Keep up the good work! :)
I'm not too familiar with Shokotan's music but I gotta admit that 'Namida no Tane' is pretty awesome. Totally reminds me of anime music and I wouldn't be surprised if it was an anime theme song. By the way, does she have more rock influenced songs like 'Namida no Tane'? Recommendations please! :)

This song is actually the ending theme for the second Gurren Lagann movie. All her Gurren Lagann songs have been rock songs which are probably her most popular song and basically boosted her music career as well. She's mentioned before that Sorairo Days is her favorite song due to it's popularity as it's her more recognized song. There's a few non-Gurren Lagann related rock songs in her albums that are very good as well (Calling Location and Spiral)Cool. Hmm.. I have never heard of Gurren Lagann so I guess I better google it. Anyways I finally heard Sorairo Days and I totally understand why fans like it so much. It's pretty damn rockin' :rockon:
I try to be hardcore but it's really hard because I don't live in Japan :(. I get most of my info from friends who live in Japan. Almost all the exclusive merchandise I have are from them too. One of the main reasons I'm going to the tour is to actually repay them back. I'm a poor college student too so even doing something like going to the concert tour requires months of saving up money (I've been saving up since August ;;). I even signed up for the official fan club "Giza Pinku" and have been getting the official newsletter sent all the way here.You should totally take pix of your collection! I had no idea non-Japanese were able to join her fan club. And yeah, it's true that ALL students are broke (I'm one of 'em lol) and going to Japan is expensive as hell. I was an exchange student in Japan a couple of years ago and I was really lucky that my favorite band v-u-den had a concert during my stay. I wouldn't have been able to go see them without the whole student exchange thing. Anyways I hope you enjoy Shokotan's concerts :)
This forum is probably the only place I can talk about Shokotan too since none of my friends like her and she's so obscure outside of Gurren Lagann here. I initially found out about her thanks to reading this topic too ><Yeah, I know the feeling. I don't know any jpop-fans outside the net so JPH!P is basically the only place where I get to talk about the awesomeness of Japanese pop culture. Anyways it's mad cool that you discovered Shokotan through this site. I discover new stuff every week thanks to our awesome members :)
I found a better than youtube quality rip of the videoThanks! :twothumbs
http://www.zshare.net/video/583390176593ba68/ (http://www.zshare.net/video/583390176593ba68/)
I like the song more everytime I listen to it. Love the PV too, it kind of fits with the song more than her other rock song's PVs. I'm usually not a fan of these dark themed PVs but Shokotan just makes it awesome <3I gotta admit that after years of listening to H!P stuff I kinda prefer darker songs and PVs nowadays. Like my favorite Aya Hirano song is her goth rock song Harmonia Vita. I haven't really seen any older Shokotan PVs so which ones are worth checking out?
Shokotan read my fan mail!! ><Congrats! That must have been awesome! And what makes it even cooler is that she actually remembered you :)
OMG I love the resolution of that video ><
I can upload more Shokorita episodes if you guys are interested :pimp:

OMG I love the resolution of that video ><It's all good, your contributions are enough. Just keep posting Shokotan news an' stuff :)
If you can upload more I'll repay you back somehow
I'll buy a copy of Namida no Tane, Egao no Hana and send it to you when it comes out if you want one :)
It's a weird anime but it's also awesome at the same time (maybe that's why so much people like it). I didn't think I'd like it at first but really enjoyed it after watching it. I think it was Gainax's first mecha anime since Evangelion so it had a lot of hype before it aired too. I don't want to ruin too much but a lot of ridiculous things happen which makes it enjoyable. A lot of the quotes in the series have become internet memes too lolThanks for the info! I'm not the biggest anime fan but I might check out the movie.
There's been a few fan club meetings since then but I haven't been able to go to any of them.So what are those FC meetings like? Does Shokotan perform songs or what?
GIZA PINKU members get to meet Shokotan backstage!!I hope you get invited! :twothumbs
Hmm my shokorita #10 is really out of synch, anyone else got this problem or is it my download of it?I have no idea cause my computer is too slow to play that video properly XD
もえよ ギザみみピチュー! (moeyo giza mimi pichu!) is a really cute song
Does anyone know if it's generally better to exchange money here or in Japan?
The exchange rate is so bad right now for me and it doesn't look like it's going to improve much the next few days :(
That is a cute song :D
Usually it's better to exchange money in Japan if you're from North America. Here is a website with the current exchange rates at Narita (http://www.narita-airport.or.jp/exchange_e/).
もえよ ギザみみピチュー! (moeyo giza mimi pichu!) is a really cute song
I haven't watched Pokemon in a long time but I'm probably going to start watching it again soon because of this ED song lol
The last anime I've actually seen was Gurren Lagann back a few months ago so I'm kind of behind
I found a video of Shokotan singing it on Pokemon Sunday
Really cute song!!
can someone get an MP3 of it? i want it on my ipod :)
es anyone know if it's generally better to exchange money here or in Japan?
The exchange rate is so bad right now for me and it doesn't look like it's going to improve much the next few days :(
I'm not sure it's a great song but the hyper nature of it suits her.
Shokotan has the best concerts!!Awwww man, I have never seen any. Which concert DVD would you recommend?
I took a picture of my current collection of Shokotan stuffEpic collection, dude!
(http://img253.imageshack.us/img253/1478/img0158.th.jpg) (http://img253.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0158.jpg)Whoa! And I thought that only Japanese H!P-fans bought multiple copies of CDs XD
I can try to scan them or take a closer picture if anyone is interested in seeing them.Yeah sure, that would be cool :)
Hopefully I can learn more about Shokotan in the next few weeks since I'm still a noob :(Dude, I'm the one who's a newbie :lol:
I went to Magical Port yesterday which was a collaboration between Shokotan and Meets Port.Whoa, that's awesome! You should have asked them to join JPH!P XD
There was a giant "Shokotan booth" showing Magical Tour and what you can get there.
I met a few other fans there and surprisingly the knew my name
They said I was a famous fan among their group because I was DONYOKU
Here's the video I recordedThanks for the video!
It was raining really badly and you can see reflection because of the lighting and cover but at least you can still see the video ><
I'm still going to be watching the movie later todaySo how was the movie? I can't wait for your concert report!
Tomorrow is the concert in Takamatsu!
So how was the movie? I can't wait for your concert report!
Awwww man, I have never seen any. Which concert DVD would you recommend?
Shokotan's managers (Kamiyama and Ichikawa) came The top picture was one of the cosplaying fans, his name was Takechan and he was cosplaying Yamada Goro lol
The second picture is me, I just came to Takamatsu so didn't get a chance to buy a t-shirt or happi yet
Shokotan was surprised to hear that I was in Takamatsu and mentioned that I lived in America
She also mentioned that I went repeatedly to her handshake meeting in Los Angeles and hasn't seen me for a long time since then
The concert hall in Takamatsu was a bit small but the atmosphere was still really awesome
I got GIZA PINKU tickets so I was near the front of the stage (6th row)
The set list was still exactly the same as the one in Toda except Shokotan sang 1 additional song which was Milky Kiss during the encore
Shokotan stuttered a bit during Spiral too in this concert lol
Some of the songs (besides the ones in the anisong medley) were short versions
I think they were 1/2, Strawberry Melody and Mitsubachi no Sasayaki if I remember them
During CAT Life, some members of the audience gets chosen to dance on stage with her
Ichikawa asked me before the concert if I wanted to dance CAT Life on stage but was a bit nervous about it
I aggreed and he said I'll be chosen in Sendai (the next concert) since I didn't really know the dance that well yet
It's only 1-2 minutes of dancing and the cat pose dancing is easy but it's still a bit scary lol
Shokotan only has 2 concert DVDs right now
It's honestly best to watch both of them
^I recommend her second DVD (2008). She improved so much and I prefer the setlist of that concert. Moreover, the band is great as well. there's a musical interlude with some awesome guitar parts. Finally, check out the Sukashikashipan Man bit :lol: funny and awesome dancing when he enters the stage XD
edit:
Might as well watch both of them anyway, start with the first one :)
Thanks for the concert report! Sounds like you had a blast. Anyways you better learn that dance for the next concert! XD
I'm going to be cheering really hard in JCB Hall today even if I get sick and die from it!!Thanks again for your epic reports! :thumbsup
Hopefully Shokotan refreshes the set list a bit like she did in the last Osaka concert with Gozen Roku-ji
Some TV performances on YouTube of Namida no Tane, Egao no HanaThanks for the videos! Shokotan's looking lovely :wub:
XD Hi everyone! I'm new to JPHIP. I just had to join because I've never seen so many shokotan fans in one English forum. Unfortunately I can't really read Japanese (although I'm trying to learn) which is sad because I love Shokotan. I want to thank you guys for posting so much cool stuff! :inlove:Welcome to JPH!P, GigantoShokofan! :welcome
^2nd row, nice!
Just found out that Yukirin (AKB48) is a fan of Shokotan!!

When I heard Shokotan was playing Budokan in October I almost fainted because I am finally able to travel Japan with some money saved up and I'm going to make sure to schedule my trip in Oct.
Can someone tell me what specific day it's going to be on? I think I made out something on a Japanese blog about Oct 24(?) Is that right? I really want to get some of her merchandise and of course see her.
I'm from LA is anyone else here from LA too?
The other goods is a cellphone strap of clione Mamitasu which is quite expensive
It didn't stop me from buying 2 though since it's so KAWAYUSU
I absolutely want that Clione Mamitasu phone strap!!! It's frikin' adorable!!!! The kawayusu makes up for the price. WWWwwww
All of her merch is really kawayusu....I hope she has most of the same merch available for her Budokan concert.
THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE WARM WELCOME! :heart:
I don't mind getting one for you at the next concert if you send me money for it. It will probably be very rare and hard to get after the concert unless they have a lot leftover or something. Thinking about it makes me want to get even more.
TimeWizard that is very kind of you! I would hate to bother you but when it comes to Shokotan stuff I am going to have to accept :w00t: I can't take that risk of not seeing Clionetasu ever again. :shocked
:thumbsup Congrats on completing your Shokotan collection.
I'm still working on mine. It is extremely hard to find First Press items especially when you don't live in Japan.
I also have the US version of "Sorairo Days". Nothing really special about it so I don't even think it can be called First Press.
Shokotan got a shot! eeep!

:( I hope her sore throat gets better.
The last concert is tomorrow.
Ganbatte Shoko!!!! I wish I could be there! Last concert of the Magical Tour.... :cry:
Was the cookie one of those sand dollar cookies that were made (I think after her suggestion or inspired by her)? There was a news story about those cookies a while back that I may have posted here.
Thanks for the vid TimeWizard!
I'm a big Macross fan so I'm going to take a wild shot in the dark here....
Shokotan cosplayed this version of Ranka Lee...sooo is this the famous mystery song?
I love this song.
Sugoi! :w00t: You chatted with Shokotan. wwWWwww she told you to calm down. heheheh. Can I see the karaoke video?..I bet you were awesome.
You were so close to Shokotan and didn't realize it! It's funny how stuff turns out. bummer :(
It's funny you should mention a Ranka Lee cosplay..I was getting a Ranka cosplay ready for Budokan. I'm cosplaying the yellow dress she wears on the first episode. I can't wait to see your cosplay TimeWizard :thumbsup
Hey..is the Tokyo Dome city amusement park the one that comes out in the "Fuyu no Yuenchi" video? I really want to go there when I go to Japan.
Ah cool..thanks TimeWizard. I'm going to try to sign up for this today as my reading skills are even more minimal than my speaking. eep. Her artwork is so kawayasu! :wub:
Hey is it true? they have already started a presale/lottery for Budokan tix? :w00t: So I guess it is going to be on the 24th of October if they are already going to start selling them.

I only went to the expos here for the first 1-2 years they started. Only been to one video game expo in the past 4 years.
Only get a sense of a packed area full of sweaty ppl pushing ppl, and little of interest.
I do like HK cosplayers though, cos they really put a lot of effort into the costumes.
Will check it out just for Shokotan though. :lol:
Hope it's a full-on concert. But I'll keep my hopes low, cos guests normally just sing a song or two unless they announce it as a separate event with a separate price. Only good thing from that would be photo'ing allowed.
Shoko's Pokomon cd release comes out on 15th July [I thought it was this month :D ]

I can imagine if Shoko had been a singer in the 80s/70s she would have had a great success with these kinds of songs, but we wouldn't have had a blog with all her cute funny pictures of course.
^ Oh No!!!! BluRay! I might actually have to buy this.... :bow:It's actually just an HD quality CM for her old DVD so I guess your money's saved for now :P
Shokotan blogged 231 times on June 30th, 2009!!
Yep... if not, I'll pass the Low Quality one.. Brilliant Dream PV is really cool : D
Shokotan's Sukashi Kashipan Man coming to U.S.?http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-5023 (http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-5023)
Tue, July 14, 2009 (2:52am EDT)
Anime News Network notes that idol Shoko Nakagawa recently stated in a blog entry that her "Sukashi Kashipan Man" character is coming to the U.S. in the form of a live-action work. "Sukashi Kashipan Man" is a hero originally drawn by Nakagawa in 2007, based on sand dollars ("sukashikashipan") and sweet buns ("kashipan"). The character proved popular among her fans, spawning an animated project, a manga, a video game, and other merchandise. However, Nakagawa did not reveal any details about the live-action project.
I like her new PV..but not so much the song.
I'm trying to download two torrents of Shokotan's DVD's right now. It doesn't help that both were first posted in 2007. Hopefully, someone will seed them.Welcome to JPH!P, B-DASH & rollfizzlebeef! :welcome
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
Did anyone else watch Shokotan Kokoro no Antenna Matsuri in SMOJ??
I missed the first 15 minutes (I'm always late for everything :( )
Hi~Welcome to JPH!P, Giza☆Shannon! :welcome
I don't think she read my message... :cry:
The video has been removed aw man. Anyone have a good link?
I bought the Giza mimi pichu edition and the regular cd version of Kokoro no antenna...I really wanted the CD/DVD one but I'm trying to be kind of careful with money for Budokan. :(
alright! Magical tour sept30!!!
hey, does anyone know why her blog was redirected???? My japanese isn't good so for awhile there I thought she just wasn't posting anything cause she was really busy or something lol. I was having Shoko withdrawals. wwww
Hi~ You are David, right?! This is Shannon who you met at AX and we have many of the same Shoko-tomo (^_^)/
How are you? I just stumbled on this forum today and thought it must be you, lol
Do you have mixi set up? If you are looking for a recording of the SMOJ, my friend "まさ初号機さん" has it uploaded on his mixi douga. If you don't have it set up I could send it to you also~ ^_^
Are you really going to Budoukan?! I am going, so I hopefully I will see you there!
Shannon!!
お久しぶりです!!
I remember you from AX08, it's been a really long time!!
I saw the videos on mixi but it isn't everything, he's missing the later half of the event
I got to see my message again though!!
I'm definitely returning to Japan for Budokan even if I'm really broke after it
WE ARE GIZA DONYOKU!!
久しぶり!:3
Oh good, glad you were able to see it~
I laughed so hard when she read your message because the staff were laughing at your Japanese XD It was so cute
At least you are trying though!! 頑張ってね!
Wow, you must be working hard! I have 3 jobs right now to save money for it. :bleed eyes:
Yes we are donyoku!! lol
Can't wait to see you there! :twothumbs:
Was it really that strange?
I knew some sentences might have been weird since I didn't know how to express them properly and I was trying to incorporate some words that I learned from other Shokotan fans
I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a lot of things I've been meaning to do
I didn't actually send my own message until the actual deadline date :(
It was actually really good considering you just started learning! :twothumbs
There were just a few things that were a little off, and I'm sure the staff didn't laugh in a mean way, they just thought it was endearing and cute, so don't worry about it and keep on studying! I make mistakes often as well, everyone does ^_^
Like, "nihon ni kaeritai" you don't use kaeru unless you're talking about your home. That's why Shoko was like "oh, so David thinks of Japan as his home now!" and "budoukan de ikimashou" they get the meaning, it's just a little screwy, lol :nervous
I love the video! Looks like so much fun! I saw you, lol! Miku cosu~ :lol:
I'm going to cosplay her again at Budoukan but I can't choose between the black/blue outfit from this latest tour or the light blue dress from the first concert. :? What do you think?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
Someone was kind enough to post the Magical Tour 2009 Live on YouTube!!
Here is the URL to watch the SMOJ event again:

Thanks for the vids!
For some reason though the SMOJ one isn't loading :(
Thanks for the magazine covers!!
The clione mamitasu on the Friday magazine is kawayusu ><
Shokotan is releasing a new single next month called "ありがとうの笑顔"
It looks like the cover is already on her blog here:
http://ameblo.jp/nakagawa-shoko/theme-10014191488.html (http://ameblo.jp/nakagawa-shoko/theme-10014191488.html)
The second track, "rainbow forecast", is going to be the theme song for the Japanese version of "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs"
There's already a preview of the PV on her website!!
http://www.nakagawashoko.com (http://www.nakagawashoko.com)
I'm already really addicted to the song lol
The Budoukan live concert is also in less than 6 weeks from now
I can't really afford to return to Japan but I'm going to go anyways XD
I already regret missing out on the Hong Kong live and even the "koi-katsu yuuenchi" event :cry:
My budget is a lot lower than what I had for Magical Tour 2009 but I'm hoping to at least stay in Japan for the release of the 10th single and the Budoukan concert
If only Japan wasn't so far away :cry:
Same here too. I've already applied for my leave since last month and there I've had not heard anything from my superior. I'm going to try again. Btw, I haven't taken any leave from the company before. I'm going to go to the concert no matter what even if it cost me my job. :twisted:
Yup yup, I'm from outside of Japan too. No worries, since you've been there before, you should be familiar with the pricing and such. As an advice from a friend, don't overspend. I did overspend on my last trip as there were so man things to buy in Japan.

It was so easy overspending there
The only regret I had when I was there was buying too much things!!
I didn't think I was going to return so soon either so I probably wanted to get as much things as I could...
I even had to leave some stuff with someone so I can pick it up when I return
It was all Shokotan goods too XD
I'm going to try to hold back this time but I'm probably going to impulsively by a lot of Shokotan goods again :(
More than a month ago, Shokotan attended the Locarno International Film Festival in Switzerland to promote the 12th Pokemon movie
It's old news now but I haven't been keeping up with a lot of things the last few weeks :(
I found a video of the event while browsing some Pokemon news
There's a small portion of Shokotan performing "kokoro no antenna" in it
After watching a few Pokemon movies, I actually prefer the Haruomi Hosono mix now :lol:
Movie 12 English Title: ‘Arceus and the Jewel of Life’ (http://pokebeach.com/2009/08/movie-12-english-title-arceus-and-the-jewel-of-life)
Also, in November, Shokotan is going to be a guest at Anime Festival Asia 09 in Singapore on November 21-22
There's an English article with info about her on the official website
I want to attend but it's too faaaar
Shokotan: GIZA Anime Superstar in Singapore! (http://www.afa09.com/i_love_shokotan.html)
Lol, that's so true. I'll also try to hold back on my spending this time.
Seriously, I really envy you :P. You get to buy all of Shokotan's stuff :bow:.
I had a hard time choosing which goods to buy as I can't buy everything because I don't put my goods in my luggage.
I normally pack the goods it nicely in a big box provided by DHL Japan and sent it back to my country.
Although this method is costly, at least my goods were in perfect condition.
Unlike the bad experience I had when I bought an extra luggage bag to put all my goods in there to find out that eveything was squash here and there :cry:.
I definitely don't trust people from the airport as they just throw your luggage around like some pile of garbage :angry:.
Woo hoo at least we get to see her again during the Anime Festival Asia 09.
Looking forward to her cosplay :inlove:.
Are there any low cost Airlines in your country? If there is, it would save some cost.
I had no idea the new dvd was out already! Is it any good?

Don't know if anyone knows this but a new anison album has been announced for March...aaahhhhh

wow, thanks for the answer.
what would be the new song on her new album?
what would be the new song on her new album?
Wow I have a bad memory
It's an anisong album so technically there won't be any new songs since they're all covers
I read somewhere about which series may be covered but forgot what it was :(
From what I remember, I think there will be songs from Macross, Haruhi and K-On and maybe more songs from Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball.
Cho Donyoku Matsuri in Budokan DVD released yesterday!!! :w00t:
Really looking forward to seeing it since I literally barely remember what happened at the concert (felt like a dream :lol:)
lol no you don't! you were just soooo excited to be there..you were in a euphoric state wwWWww
ah' yes, I know about the anisong album. and I love her version of ETERNAL WIND from the anime movie Gundam F91.
I hope she makes her own ver. of Sousei no Aquarion. She sings that on her magical tour concert :love:
You watch her live??? omg
lol no you don't! you were just soooo excited to be there..you were in a euphoric state wwWWww
It's weird because I barely remember anything that happened during the concert. I remember specific things that happened before and after but not much during the actual concert itself. The only thing I really remember was Brilliant Dream because of all the laser lights and Tsuzuku Sekai because of the fire that literally blew up on stage (you can literally feel the heat :lol:). Oh well, thankfully there's a DVD of the concert which will hopefully bring back some memories. Hope I get it in the mail tomorrow or I'm going to be incredibly sad this weekend :cry:

I've been a huge fan ever since her American concert at Anime Expo (before that, I was only a closet fan XD)
I went from my home country Canada all the way to Japan twice last year just to see her concerts. Still not sure if it was a crazy idea (because of the amount of money that I blew) but they were definitely great experiences (because of the new Shokofriends that I made XD)
Magical Tour was awesome, wasn't it? I still don't get tired of watching it. I must have seen it hundreds of times by now. :lol:
I think one of Shokotan's blog entry is revealing the new anisong tracklist.
I was right about some of the series at least :lol:
Looks like it's going to be a full album tracklist instead of a mini album

Wow! Those are some great pics TimeWizard! :)
The Prism Concerts sound so awesome.
I'm debating whether I should wait and buy Ray of Light in Japan.
Thanks for the video link. The new vid is so rock. I love the dark colors. It's so not Shoko.
I love her two new songs, Diamond High and RAY OF LIGHT :love:

I think you mean Matsugashita Hiroyuki. He's been the guitarist and keyboard in all of Shokotan's major concerts so it wouldn't be surprising if they were close. I don't think that is actually him though. In the blog post you got the picture from, she says it's the cameraman for Kagakukun :lol:
She doesn't mention Hiroyuki at all in the blog post so I'm not sure where you are getting the reference from :?

This weekend is the last weekend for Prism Tour in Yokohama :cry:. I ended up going to the one in Fukuoka, Tokyo and Osaka already. To be honest, it was a bit boring because of the anisongs at the beginning. She doesn't end up talking to the audience until about 40 minutes into the concert so it starts off slow but after the slow songs (Kirei A La Mode and Snow Tears), it picks up and gets better. Not as good compared to Magical Tour though which I still think was her best concert. Ray of Light was a bit of a letdown during the concert since it's too slow paced. She ended up singing it after Namida no Tane and before Calling Location so it feels a bit out of place. It probably would have been better to stick it with the slow songs.
Anyways, she announced a 5th anniversary concert at Makuhari in November during the JCB concert.
Hooray for her 3rd concert. and I wish I can see her 5th anniversary concert
but after the slow songs (Kirei A La Mode and Snow Tears), it picks up and gets better.
It probably would have been better to stick it with the slow songs.
so, I read right
Is she the lead actress?
Flying Humanoid PV looks really cool though!I agree! It's a great song! I fell in love with it immediately! :) :heart: There really isn't any Shokotan songs I don't like though. I love them all.
^ahw privated already.

I confess I kinda lost track of Shokotan, but she's totally back on my radar. I really dig Ray Of Light :thumbup

The concert was awesome!!
Shokotan sang only her original songs (no anisongs whatsoever) and half the setlist was different both days which made it worth going to both.
She sang a lot of songs you wouldn't expect too
Namely Winter Wish, 8-bit ver Kimi ni Meroron and Koi no Kioku
Of course she also sang all of the songs on her new album as well
The choreography was also really well done and cute this time
In my opinion, Makuhari messe is probably Shokotans best concert
Definitely can't wait for the DVD
There will probably be two separate releases because of the different set lists
The concert was only half the fun though
There was a festival outside the concert hall with many Shokotan related events
There was even an auction for authentic Shokotan goods including costumes that she actually wore during previous concerts (second Magical Tour costume and first Prism Tour costume were sold)
It'd be cool to actually own a costume but I wouldn't know what to do with it lol
The upcoming Disney CG-animated film, ”Tangled“, revolves around the story of Rapunzel. Japan will see a dubbed release on March 12th, 2011, and multi-talented Shoko Nakagawa has been chosen to lend her voice for ‘Princess Rapunzel’.
Shoko said, “I feel nervous and have a lot of pressure, since it’s a Disney animation. Yet when I read the script, I became excited for Rapunzel’s adventure. I will draw inspiration from it everyday, and try my best while working on it.”
Nakagawa Shoko had previous seiyuu experience through various Pokémon movies, and is widely known as the “Blog Queen” of Japan.
Additionally, “Tangled” will be the 50th animated feature in the ‘Walt Disney Animated Classics’ series.
Did she sang Eternal Wind? that's my all time favorite song. And Im glad she re-sings it xD
Does the auctioned costume has her sweat on it?xDD

This is probably a long shot, but could someone please upload Shoko's First Concert DVD and Extras videos? There the only ones of her's I haven't seen and I haven't been able to find them anywhere! Please please? Megaupload would be awesome, but any upload would be fine!!!
The others were all awesome but I would love to see the First DVD to see how she has grown :)
I only have this DVD in torrent... D:! http://www.hello-online.org/index.php?app=xbt&CODE=details&torrent=11433 (http://www.hello-online.org/index.php?app=xbt&CODE=details&torrent=11433)Yes but no one is seeding that torrent :cry:
I saw this DVD!! I love it!! *__* Shokotan is the best!
Well, she has a very unique voice, i never see her before, only enjoying macross frontier soundtrack.
she's pretty yeah.
It feels a bit like Snow Tears but not as brilliant in my opinion.
It's been six months since the last update... What's going on the world of Shokotan?
The last single is from January this year. The last cover album is exactly a year old... :panic:
edit: Ooh, new mini-album announced for January 2013? About time!
