The tour starts on the weekend, it's sold out as usual ;D
21/04 - Tokyo Koseinenkin, 18.00
22/04 - Tokyo Koseinenkin, 14.30/18.00
03/05 - Aichi Koseinenkin, 13.00/16.30
05/05 - Osaka Koseinenkin, 16.30
I'd say the tour goods will go up on Friday, the night before, like they usually do. I wonder if the girls will get solo DVDs like the Berryz did... I'm going to the Aichi concert this time, here's praying for a good setlist :heart:
-
Wow, already? I'm assuming we're getting the new mini-album songs and maybe a preview of their new single!
-
There's a new single? O.o I'd say it's just gonna be a compilation of songs from both albums so far, pretty much the whole reason we got the mini album I think. Some songs to fill out this concert. I can't wait to see Natsu DOKI Lipstick live :D
-
No, I mean, we can get a preview if they're having a new single any time soon. Well, I guess that's a little far-fetched seeing as nothing's been announced yet. I'm kinda sad because usually the solos are cover songs or songs from their previous albums, but the whole '"shuffle" part of the concert is taken over by the mini-album songs. So as I see it, no Chisa x Hagi song.. T_T
-
so sad ><~
I need more Chisa x Hagigi duet song!
-
I want a Maimai/Airi duet.
Mairi ftw!
-
I want a Maimai/Airi duet.
Mairi ftw!
hahahaha.......Mairi.....
i want to see they duet too......

thanx for the recordings Dan and Ayabie! ^^
-
Natsu DOKI Lipstick was lower in tune live. I guess it's hard to sing that hard while dancing and live.
-
How exciting! I really hope they release this one on DVD as well!
-
Does anyone have an mp3 of as one? I've been looking for that everywhere

Maimi always sounds deeper when she's singing live :heart: Thanks for those songs, I can't wait! One more week now...

Just got back. Two nights on the bus in a row is a bitch x___x *dead* There were some other foreigners there! *waves* They said they were from another forum, so I ended up spending most of the day with them, which was nice. As a group, the wota generally seemed less afraid to approach us, so we talked to quite a few. And again, the number of girls was higher than other H!P concerts. I did a count as usual, I lost count after a while. Nice to see a healthy number of kids too. Anyway, a breakdown of the concert:
01. That's the Power
I was iffy on them starting with this one, but it turned out really well. The outfits were very tropical and kind of Iroppoi (we've seen the live pictures of these) and they worked really well with the song. Kanna has cut her hair shorter again (kind of above her shoulders) and she gets a lot of spotlight with this song. Hell all of the girls looked absolutely amazing. Saki and Airi both had different hairstyles finally, and especially Airi looked beautiful. Her hair was pulled back and very curly/frizzy, not a look she's had before. With her bangs gone, it really highlighted those evil, evil eyes of hers :p
02. Ooki na Ai de Motenashite
Same old, always a concert winner. I noticed Maimi's started singing in a different key for a lot of this song, she imitates Airi and actually does it quite well. The music also sounded a little different, especially the beginning felt way more up-tempo.
-- MC --
Girl's introductions. Same old.
03. Soku Dakishimete
Another solid concert winner, same as usual. Nothing terribly special stands out about this time.
04. Time Capsule
Basically exactly the same as the last concert, with the girls sitting on the steps again. Starting to lose its charm for me now.
-- MC [Gesture game] / Umeda, Yajima, Nakajima, Arihara --
They've been doing different gestures for each one. This time we got to see Kanna doing things from school, and Maimi doing animals, while Saki had to guess. Kanna got the harder subject, so she sucked terribly and Maimi won.
05. Bokura no Kagayaki / Umeda, Okai, Arihara
Erika with the two shorties was great, haha. I'm not a huge fan of this song, and the dance was... well what dance? Kinda boring too.
06. Natsu DOKI Lipstick / Yajima
Outfit change for Maimi, she was the only one who got one (not even Airi). Maimi is definitely being pushed as a sex symbol now, it was evident throughout the whole concert. The dance for this was nothing special either, until she hit her two dance solos. Especially the second one, it's nuts. At one point, she even kinda humped the floor O.o This was by far one of the better performances of the whole concert, but she was really out of breath by the end. I would watch the whole concert again just to see this performance, she's amazing.
-- MC / Suzuki, Okai, Hagiwara --
Cutie Gals have lost their charm, what with only one of them still being in elementary school now. Airi and Chisato went on and on about the troubles of Junior High, and they spoke a little English. Especially Airi was showing them the difference in how to pronounce words. The examples we heard were "listen" (which she pronounced perfectly) and "morning" (which sounded terrible from both girls, haha). And then Mai pretending to be confused because the girls have moved on without her and are studying things she doesn't know. They promised to go on "forever", at which point Mai asked them what "forever" means :p
07. Wakkyanai (Z)
Outfit change. White, almost cheerleader-ish outfits with skirts that spun up whenever the girls even breathed. Which was great with the tapdancing, which, by the way, was amazing. These girls always do something a little different that, for me, sets them apart. They were all really good! A nice way to shake up the song too, which was getting kinda boring.
08. Shiroi Tokyo
Mai sang a lot of this song O.o The dance was also slightly changed, but it was great to hear this song again, especially so recently after Otome Gokoro. They highlighted some of the less popular girls with this song, Maimi and Airi didn't really sing that much.
09. As One
Same old, great dance. I love this one.
-- VTR --
The girls eating sushi for five minutes. That's it. Can you dig it? God, boring. Some parts were amusing. Maimi ate about half the restaurant, but otherwise... well how much do you like to watch girls eat? That'll tell you how much you'll enjoy this.
10. EVERYDAY YEAH! Kataomoi
Same old. I believe there was a costume change here, to a blue polka dot outfit.
11. Endless Love ~I love you, more~
Same old again.
12. Disco Queen / Nakajima, Hagiwara
I feel these two are the two weakest singers in the group, but they nailed this song, it was one of the better performances of the night as well. The dance is kinda silly, but these kids are tiny, I wasn't expecting very much. I felt this was the first time that Saki really grabbed the crowd by herself. Usually she's just there and does her thing in her little corner, but she was the main part of this song and she grabbed the audience and she held them. She's a great little performer.
13. Tsuugaku Vector / Suzuki
There was no dance O.o They put a mic out, Airi sang into it and clapped occasionally. This song was just all about the audience clapping. Once or twice Airi ran her hands up the mic stand O.o but that was it. Sad, but her voice is amazing. Way better than her last solo, which was boring.
-- MC --
I don't even remember what this was.
14. Sakura Chirari
Same old. The flower dance move in the middle is back, thank god.
15. Massara Blue Jeans
Pretty much exactly the same as the last concert, right down to the "kochi!" part. I never really noticed that only Maimi and Airi sing the chorus of this song.
16. JUMP
Poor girls, having to sing this at the end of the night. Great as usual.
-- ENCORE --
KYUUTO! KYUUTO! Haha.
17. YES! Shiawase
I hate this song, so I'm sad they ended with it. But what can you do? It's happy and upbeat. I think I saw Saki almost crying at one point, which was a little strange. These kids get way too emotional.
All in all, I think this concert was better than their first one. But definitely Maimi was a stand out this time. Erika was kind of.... just there in the background. Even when she was dancing, I felt there wasn't much energy in her this time around. I honestly barely noticed she was even there. Don't know what was up with her, if she wasn't feeling well or something, but she was almost invisible. Kanna, Chisato and Saki also got a bigger push, which was nice. But it was definitely Maimi and Airi's concert.
-
Good report :heart:
YOU'RE SO LUCKY, TARAAAAAA ;D
-
Thanks for the report, it's really great one.
I'm kinda surprised that there're number of girls in their concert.
which is really cool!!! Maybe it's mean they're selling their songs more than just
their looks to wota. ;D
feel great to know ufa pushing up chisato. :heart:
-
I just read that there's a new rule at C-ute con today. No penlight, no nameboard. What happened? :o
Hope it's just for this venue, or else concerts aren't gonna be as fun. :/
-
No penlights? WTF?
I hope so... :(
-

Wow, that's strange. The only time I've heard of them doing that before was for Ribbon no Kishi so as not to piss off the Takurazuka fans.
-
Has there been confirmation of the DVD release date yet? I read it's the 18th of July, but I haven't seen anywhere else confirming that yet.
-
^ It was confirmed:
http://www.netdirect.co.jp/search/ISSSchDetail.asp?ISBN=EPBE5254
And yes, it's being released July 18th.
-
Excellent. Same day as the new AKB releases.... goodbye money!
-
July 18 !? ... I can't wait ......... damn, I'm broke .......
-
Cool that this is coming out on dvd, can't wait!
-
Did anyone watch this DVD?
-
Yes, I have watched it.
And I have to say that I'm slightly disappointed really. :/
The last concert was very good and colorful but somehow this concert seemed alittle plain..
The girls sang great and all, and special step dancing on Wakkyanai (Z) was awesome. :w00t:
But somehow it was a bit to plain... I think I might be alittle tierd off the songs from the first album. :/
Meguru Koi no Kisetsu & Bishoujo Shinri would definetly have made the concert better.
They need a bigger stage! This one was way to small!
And oh, the MC with the games was fun. When Saki was doing dances to H!P songs. :)
-
Chisato rocked again! Give her a solo please!
-
So I've been meaning to comment on this concert ever since I watched the DVD-- I've just been too lazy to do it. XD But finally, I just want to mention a few things that caught my eye--
Bokura no Kagayaki. This one was so spastically cute, it really made me love the song even more. The end was especially hilarious. I felt so bad for the girls having to sing and just... GO CRAZY LIKE THAT at the same time. But it so made the performance that much better. XD
Natsu Doki Lipstick. Maimi totally rocks, hands down. I mean, I always knew that girl could dance, but finally being featured on her own here was SO awesome. She's got some moves!
MC with Erika, Saki, Kanna, and Maimi. So much win. The entire thing was memorable-- Erika making the most hilarious faces, and Saki going through a bunch of dances and everything. XD
Tap-dancing. A really fun addition to the performance. With songs like Wakkyannai (Z) that we've been hearing for a while, I'm glad they put that in there to make things a bit more interesting!
Kanna. Kanna's disappointed me a lot in previous concerts, but this time around she REALLY renewed my faith in her. Good to see her getting more, well, into performances than before. Lots of improvement there!
All of the new songs were great, it's just that the ones from the first album are losing their charm on me. I still really liked the concert, because, well, it's C-ute! But I can't wait to see some of their new stuff on their next concert. (Particularly Bishoujo Shinri. 8D)
Oh. And Erika was the definition of win throughout the whole thing, as usual. :D
