(Group) Ebisu Muscats

[L4verra]

It's pretty safe to say that after Rina, after all the other great cuties L4verra presented us with that Kishi was always the smile he noticed...if I'm wrong than let a thunder bolt strike me!   
I'm still here, punks!!!!!

There's somethin' 'bout Aino that makes me happy...
She always somehow managed to catch my attention, and hell I didn't buy a copy of Cyzo magazine and one of her AVs for nothing y'know?
So yes initial you found my secret

Aino Kishi is super cute and has a super sweet smile. Even if she is super skinny

Aino Kishi is mah new fave Muscat now, with Mui at 2nd, Rina at 3rd, Saemi at 4th and Rio/Acky at 5th!

So, Uruha is not in your lineup anymore? 
I think you're gonna make her the most favorite one but now she's not in your top 5.

Anybody here remember the girl with hairband in Oecura Mambo PV? I forget her name 

Alright Uruha is on an entire different level...since she is not a Muscat then she's not in my Top 5 Muscats, but when it comes to Top 5 Japanese idols, the list is very different. Uruha is 1st, Aino is 2nd, Mui is 3rd, Rina is 4th, and Saemi is tied with Reina Triendl for 5th.

Uruha was the youngest Muscat and the only one that was younger than I am (by 2 months) so that gives her some bonus points 


And about Miss Headband on Oecura Mambo, damn there were like two girls with headbands but I don't know which one you were talking about. Best guess I can come up with is Kei Megumi but I can be extremely off...everything post Chocolate I'm familiar with; the Mambo days not so much

This was when Rina was a young gun and not the young lady she is now, when Aino had the jet black hair, when Rin was still active, and when Yuma was leader...oh how the times have changed...

[remy_R]

I think Aino shoud gain more weight 
Yep, she's super skinny, does she eat once a day or what? 

Here,
(next to Aika)
She's who I mean. I don't remember much about Ebisu's ex-members.

I, somehow, miss the old style.

Short clip of the Muscats performing Heavy Rotation. Poor Yuma

[initial]

   dang, seeing that clip reminds me of how much I'm gonna miss these girls. 
I remember the Onedari episode where they showed Yuma falling.  Also Yamanaka hanging from the wires during her song.   

[mode107]

^Lmao, this clip.

I still remember the episode where they played the clip on the show. Yuma was tearing up watching it, while the other girls kept giggling on.

Edit: initial beat me to the memory. haha

[trigger]

Went and found the episode in question...

http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=24481.msg928263#msg928263

I think these smileys sum it up really well  

[initial]

they should have a Top 10 Muscat Moments countdown.
it's great to see who introduced the episode 

[L4verra]

I am guessing this is the announcement press conference, since, well, none of the girls were speaking happy.
This video features Yuma, Sola, Rio, and babylove Westbrook.
Despite the 'Cats looking as attractive as ever (Rio, Yui, Haruka, Ai, Rina, Aino), this just makes me sad guys

[remy_R]

Guys, you might be want to check this PV out..

No, please, no more post about 'it'. I'm still hoping they were just making a gag for their fans about their disbandment

Guys, you might be want to check this PV out.

Oh man...I've blasted this song so many times ever since Gyakusou was released; thanks remy_R for the full video

But it does raise quite a few problems.
First off, Saemi only showed up like 3 times in split second intervals wtf 
Second, we have noted that this song sounded albeit too similar to Come on Eileen to the point that it sounds like a blatant ripoff. I do not want to sound like a conspiracy nut, but do you think the Muscats are disbanding because of a copyright infringement lawsuit? They are right in the middle of their primes and are disbanding so abruptly that there's more reasons behind it other than the show running out of ideas (what happened to the Cider Queen?) or the girls getting there in age. I am pretty sure someone in Japan commented that this song sounded too much like Dexys Midnight Runners that it would not go unnoticed. There's more to the abrupt ending than what we see, and a lawsuit might be one of them. 

Just throwing my two cents out here...

Well, it can be yes and it can be no, I'm not so sure about it, unless we give that question to whoever responsible about the disbandment. If I understand Japanese, I'd be glad to ask the Muscats about it.   
Maybe the reasons are more than just a copyright issue, maybe the producer himself wants it, or maybe some of them just to busy to have side j-pop job, or another 'maybes' that we, their fans, can assume.

It's the 64th, enjoy..

[initial]

this is the last place I thought I would have to put up with that damn gangam style, whatever it's called!   
but Kobayashi-P did rock it!  love the girls expression.   
classic Rio

[remy_R]

Now I wonder how to download this song Remi_R provided us in full and HD .

I haven't found the HD version yet, and I'll share it if I find it.
But, every videos on youku are not available in HD version, as far as I know.. 
Youtube maybe?

I wonder if there's any recorded version of the last X'Mas Rock n Roll Night concert.. 
(in the highest quality as possible, of course  )

[Tuffty]

classic Rio

What do you mean? I must have missed it in the episode

Move over Acky, there is a new queen of the death stare. Ladies and gentlemen, Minori Hatsune, mistress of the 'I will kill you in your sleep' stare at 15:39 in the above video

[initial]

For Tuffty (sorry for re-posting)
at 5:10, classic Rio 

I was sure Minori was gonna do her famous slap...

^LOL yeah, Rio.. 
I miss that game (where Aoi forgot to pay the beer)
I wonder why they don't make something like that anymore.. 

[L4verra]

Welp...




Then Cyzo magazine released this earlier today...



Why must I be conflicted over Uruha and Aino...WHY...

^LOL yeah, Rio..

I wonder why they don't bring back Cider Queen anyway.
Like, how would Saemi, Rion, Brooklyn (Airi Kijima) and Yui fare if they ever tried it?
Hopefully they bring it back in the next 3 months, because it was a major staple during the Onegai/Choito days (alongside Kawaii Koushien) and it would suck if it wasn't tried one last time...

Speaking of Brooklyn...

[remy_R]

Different topic from Ebisu Muscats,
Aino makes her own reality show and some of the episodes are with Ebisu's member, it's called あいのエチュード (Aino *something*, I'm not sure how to translate it)
Maybe, ehm, L4verra, want to watch it?   

Some of it are available on youku. I've been looking for the rest and I got nothing. I'm collecting that show too

Yep, it must be interesting if the producer bring the old games back. And about Airi, since her first appearance on 53rd episode, she really catch my eyes.. 
Very adorable when she introduced herself back then.

Hee? So the video I shared last time was being cut in the first 2-3 minutes
This is the complete one, and guess what, Jessica is back!
