She's my favorite as well  :wub:

Those jazz basses look pretty big, especially on a girl like Tomomi, which makes it extra cute. Her singing voice is really pleasant to listen to  :)

For me, she's the coolest one when it comes to movements in stage while performing. And her voice is also really cool, perfect blend with Haruna's voice.
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: SomethingWild on October 13, 2009, 09:54:24 AM
^Welcome! Yes, Tomomi's voice sounds a bit 'sweeter' compared to Haruna's 'raw power', which is definitely one of Scandal's strong points.

I'm amazed how well she can move with those big basses on her shoulder.
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: Masa on October 13, 2009, 10:07:39 PM
I gotta admit that I didn't like Tomomi's voice at first because her voice isn't as powerful as Haruna's. Tomomi actually sounds more like a pop singer than a rock singer. However, I have grown to like her voice and it's actually a positive thing that she doesn't sound like Haruna. Scandal would be boring vocally if all the girls sounded the same :yep:

Skill-wise, I think that TOMOMI is the best singer of the band. At first, I didn't like her chipmunky "Japanese-y" voice, but it grew on me. Her voice is strong, especially in "Kagerou"; her "ga" after "I LOVE YOU" is really loud and clear. HARUNA's voice comes off as weak sometimes, even if she has the best voice, sound-wise.

TOMOMI also has the best stage presence. :heart:

Tomo-kun's definitely not one of my favorites, but she's very photogenic I must admit!  :) And she makes the cutest and funniest faces sometimes~  :lol:

Tomomi is a great asset to SCANDAL, She's the one composing most of the song if not , all, she can sing very well too and does look good in front of camera with a pleasant smile  :lol:
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: suicune141 on October 18, 2009, 05:10:06 PM
^ Yeah, I admit Tomo-chan is a good singer, but after a while I get tired of hearing her high-pitched voice.  :( I would love to hear Mami and Rina more, and really know that it's them singing, without a doubt. =T At first, I thought Rina was singing the little intro of S.L.Magic, but then I realized it was Haru-chan.  :cry: And yeah....then I got confused with Tomo and Rina. =T
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: xSushix on October 18, 2009, 07:26:56 PM
Aha when I was new to scandal and didn't know who was who I didn't see tomomi as a high-pitched person so when she was singing I was like :shocked
But her cuteness and energy made me like it XD

^ Ahh~ yes I'm like you when it comes to rina and mami ; _ ;
for their song SO EASY I was like: "Is that mami?" "Is that rina?" O_O


On another note, gotta love tomo for messing up XD

Haha, Kono's post in the Mami thread inspired me to dig out this here pic of Tomo-chan that really.... Befuddles me? Is that a word?  :P It just...so doesn't look like her. At all. Kinda creepy. O_O

(http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Tomomi_0066.jpg)

 :shocked

And just some cute pics of Tomo-chan, usually with Haruna~ Is it just me, or does anyone else get the impression that the two main vocalists are also bffs?  :D I'm sure the girls are all good friends, anyhow, by now, but... Tomo and Haru seem inseparable at times. >w<

(http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Tomomi_0026.jpg) (http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Tomomi_0036.jpg) <-- weird one. O_O

(http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Tomomi_0042.jpg) <-- only known pic (by me) of Tomo eating. Looks like Mami at first, but it's not...

(http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Tomomi_0058.jpg) haha, Tomo sooo wants some of that cake. :lol:

^ OH dear GAH. My stomach hurts so bad from laughing at your post.  :rofl: I just saw that Kirby pic.... and I was like, omg I DO see the likeness. *imitates vacuum-cleaner* SHOOP. Tomo sucks the cake in.... Kirby, well...the cake...the cat....maybe even the vacuum cleaner.  :lol:

Anyhow.... Yeah, Tomo.... gosh, she makes the cutest faces. And the weirdest ones. I wonder if she realizes she makes them? Seriously, some people I know just make these awesomely funny faces out of reflex sometimes....  :huhuh Anyhow.  :lol:
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: Masa on October 19, 2009, 11:18:17 PM
There two are probably my favorite Tomomi pix:
(http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Tomomi_0011.jpg) (http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Tomomi_0007.jpg)

My least favorite would be the Rolling Stone lollipop pic. The picture is quite suggestive and Tomomi herself looks kinda weird in it :smhid

Anyhow.... Yeah, Tomo.... gosh, she makes the cutest faces. And the weirdest ones. I wonder if she realizes she makes them? Seriously, some people I know just make these awesomely funny faces out of reflex sometimes....  :huhuh Anyhow.  :lol:
Yeah I'm pretty sure she's aware of her... unusual talent lol. Anyways Tomomi's lucky that she actually looks adorable when she's making funny faces XD
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: suicune141 on October 20, 2009, 02:14:05 AM
Yes, very much so~  :lol: If I were to try making half those faces, I'd probably scare off half the guys in my school.  XD Watch out for the psycho girl with Tourettes. >_< No... Tomo-chan... Can pull off looks that no one else can. Maybe it's her delightfully chubby cheeks? Or almost child-like radiant eyes?  :lol: I dunno. She's just got such a cute quality about her, not obviously cute like Rina's, but.... somehow it rivals Rina's kawaii factor. Rina is just...overall cute. Tomomi makes it happen.  8)

Omg! I was thinking the same thing! Like just a couple months back I came up with the idea that the two were best friends since 1) they always had pics together 2) Sat/Stood beside each other 3) Went shopping together while rina and mami went together and other reasons I came up with that made me...seem nuts :w00t:
I didn't want to say anything cuz well I thought it was just me lol XD

But yea not only those two but Mami and Rina are always together as well XP

Aha tooo cute <3

And for the pic that doesnt look like Tomomi...must be the use of eyeliner *nods* :shocked

Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: suicune141 on October 20, 2009, 12:37:31 PM
^ Thank you! I, too, thought I was crazy for assuming it. I mean, just because they take a lot of pics together, it doesn't meant that. But I get a vibe from it, too.

I feel kinda bad though, for Rina and Mami. I'm sure they're good friends, too, but it feels like Haru's and Tomo's best friend-ship is kinda pushing them together to pair off~ I've seen lots of pics of Rina and Tomo-chan, so I'm wondering~ XDD

(http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Rina_053.jpg) (http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t131/higirl410/Rina_044.jpg)

>w<

Aha no problem, no problem XD
Well I didn't think of them as total bffs just 'cause of the pics. Aha *o*
But yesss I get the vibe. :twisted:

I agree with you, I'm sure the girls are all good friends with each other but usually a group of four tend to split into two pairs.
Like the usual: Haruna > Tomomi
Mami > Rina

And different pairs as well like Rina > Tomomi

But of course that isn't a bad thing at all, so don't worry :thumbup
Because I'm a part of a group of four as well and we're realll tight. And when we walk home together we tend to split up into pairs~ [Two of us walk in front, the other two behind] It isn't the fact that the sidewalk can't fit 4 people but 'cause it's natural I guess XD
It also happens on different occasions~
We sometimes don't realize this lol. In the end, we snap back into the usual 4 :w00t:
So I'm sure SCANDAL's like that as well

On another note, cute pictures! :heart:
Though, isn't the top right picture mami and rina? Not sure ;'O
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: suicune141 on October 20, 2009, 10:48:55 PM
^ Aww. I'm so bad at balancing groups of friends, I get so jealous. I'm usually a one or two bff girl.  :lol: But that's cool, groups of four are so... dynamic. Like SCANDAL, and other bands. And I dunno, yeah.  XD I'm kinda loopy right now, excuse any excess stupidity~  :lol:

And hmm.... I thought it was Tomomi because that picture and the one to the left were in the same blog post, so I was kinda thinking it was like, Rina and Tomo posing together, and then checking out how their picture came out~  :lol: Dunno, it could be Rina. Sometimes, I find it hard to distinguish between Mami and Tomo, it just depends on lighting and angles. >_< I've gotten better, but with the blog pics... >_< The quality of their cellie pics isn't all that great. *faints* But anyhow.... and they both kinda have chubby cheeks. >_<

Anyhow....hmm. I'll have to take a closer look. Look for that beauty mark you just made me discover~  :lol:
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: xSushix on October 20, 2009, 11:13:13 PM
Lol it's alright and aha small is good too :w00t:
Big is sometimes over-whelming, well for me. Probably cuz I'm an introvert XD

But anyway yea. I had to look at the picture like 5 times to realize it was Mami O_O
I was like: D'aww soo cuute....waiiiit isn't that Mami?
Well I think it is o.o
I first thought it was the bangs but then I realized Mami puts her bangs the same way as Tomomi at times so that didn't help. And the angle didn't help at all because yess they both have cute chubby cheeks lol.
I could only tell because of the uniform. Tomomi has the yellow tie while Mami is like white-ish. Also the wrist band thingys were different XD

Aha, I can't find the beauty mark this time. Must be the qualty lol
Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: suicune141 on October 20, 2009, 11:42:30 PM
^ Rawr, you're like, the ultimate fan! >_< I feel so...ungirly for not noticing those differences.  XD

Hmm....well, maybe I'll check a translation of the original blog post later and see if that helps any.  :lol: It's kinda funny how we're so interested, it's like a little mystery~  :D

I feel like I should post more pics of Tomo, but I don't have any. Well, any that you guys haven't posted.  :cry:

^ *thud* Thanks so much, Kono! God, where do you get these awesome pics? Most look so personal, it's really cool! (and aside from their blogs and the staff blogs, it's hard to find average, everyday pics of them!)

>_< I want to say we should link back to the sources, but I myself can't always do that. ^.^;; I lose all my Japanese sites due to the Kanji in the My Favorites titles. @__@

Found a crapload of Sakura-con, Japan Nite, and pix from that French JAPAN EXPO last year (?) - sorry if I'm not remembering the exact title.  :roll:

Yeah, it's hard to find everyday photos of the girls. Btw, Thank You Very Much for the new photos. I haven't searched in a while. I was busy posting here. It's all I can offer right now, photos that is. Since I discovered them 4 or 5 months ago, I started searching and my collection grew. I become an addict when it comes to photos. I kinda feel guilty that Masa thanks me for just the photos. :(

Is this really Tomo-chan? I posted this pic a while back in the Haru thread, and no one corrected me, but today I find a comment in my gallery saying "This is Tomomi....Haruna is beside her."  :smhid  :roll: So I ask you, the fans and friends I know, is this really not Haruna, while I posted it before and got no corrections? Cuz now I'm really confused. @__@ I found this pic before I saw the others wearing glasses, and just looking at her wispy hair.... I thought it was Haru.

Title: Re: The Official Tomomi Thread
Post by: konohagure on October 28, 2009, 03:37:20 PM
I think that is Tomomi too. Her hair (the division of her hair is different), the earring (although I haven't seen Haruna's other ear.), facial features, not that clear, but its definitely Tomomi.

Here's a comparison (of the division of their hair) I do not know what it's called.

This is just something I came up. Hope this helps in any way.

Dammit, you guys really must be in a whole 'nother time zone, cuz when I get home from school (average work hours too I'm assuming =P ) this forum is so flooded! =3 Just keep this up, and our forum will flourish~ *says sing-songily*

And uh, to respond to all this:

1.) No, I'm sorry! i don't remember where I got the pic. X__X I'm very disorganized with my SCANDAL pix - I find so many, and get excited to find a crapload, so then yeah.... it's a wonder I can organize them.  :lol: I usually bookmark the sites, but yeah... I dunno.
2.) How am I supposed to know what she's doing? :P ;) At first I thought she was knitting, but then yeah.
3.) Man...their hair is so similar! Except for the way they part their hair! @_@

And as a girl, maybe I can shed some light for you guys. :P Haruna parts her bangs apparently to her left (same as me~), while Tomo-chan parts her bangs to her right.

Post by: xSushix on October 28, 2009, 09:56:58 PM
Oooh konohagure pretty much said what I wanted to say about the hair AND the earring :w00t:

Tomomi's ear cartilage piercing is on her left ear while Haruna's on her right ear [kinda noticeable on the yumemiru tsubasa mv XD]

Don't ask how I know that LOL
I have a fascination for ear piercings so when I saw the earrings on Haruna's ear I was like... yuuup, that's hot :thumbup

Because of what you all said, now I believe its TOMOMI on that picture.

I don't really like those types of ear piercings, but when I saw HARUNA's, I've changed my mind. Only her's though.

I remember reading somewhere Tomomi's comment that she was mistaken for a middleschooler (?) when she played at Sheraton's pool during AM2. With the look she had in this vid, I can totally see how and why  :lol: :lol: :lol:

I found this pic on FB about that "bass lesson" vid. She has pretty long ring fingers. It's said those with long ring fingers are artistic  :shocked Seem true for Tomo

Pretty.  Is this new, or the latest? 
One thing I'm sad about is that she was the last non-dyed hair member, was pure black hair.  Nothing wrong with dyed, colored hair, they all are very pretty. 
It's just I more attracted to black hair.

We asked the members to answer a few questions about themselves. Below are their responses to the following:


(1) most attractive feature; (2) current obsession; 3) look at my...; (4) favorite food; (5) something I hate; (6) times when I feel like an adult; (7) artist I respect; (8) opinion from another band member.


Tomomi

(1) Stomach; (2) earring collection; (3) bangs; (4) fruit, except melons; (5) quarrels; (6) when I use my hanko seal; (7) Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers; (8) Mami said, "Tomomi has healing power. She's also the band mascot."

I found her most attractive feature are her smiling eyes coupled with a killer smile. I'm drawn to her double eyelids and long, curvy eyelashes

I watched Scandal's first live DVD and that completely revived my Scandal fandom and especially my Tomomi appreciation.
She's so cool with her hair over her eye the entire time  :lol:

I play guitar, but I have been thinking about getting a bass for fun... and then someone had one for sale locally! GETS!

Red jazz bass, just like Tomomi's, what are the odds  :lol:
I'm thinking of fitting a black pearl pickguard to complete the look even further, but I didn't realize those things are quite expensive.

I may record some Scandal bass clips once I get the hang of this thing. It's pretty hard to play and super heavy  :panic:
