A fake tabloid cover on everything Muscats. Supposedly for an upcoming DVD. Wonder what the 'scandalous' stories are. With Acky and Shou as the main cover, I can only imagine it's the latter confessing their love for Acky. Which isn't tabloid gossip, it's 100% accurate! 
Wow. This is awesome. Yeah, they're releasing a
big compilation 'bento' box set next month. On twitter, Maccoi Saito asked fans about what they want to see in the set, so I assumed that it was just going to be fan favorites and a lot of stuff I've already seen. But it looks like they're stuffing it with a lot of unreleased footage as well
Looking at the Amazon listing, it's a 3-disc set. The 1st disc devoted to 'Ooku' - favorites and never-before-seen. The 2nd disc is the "Best Of" disc with segments like
Skatto Telephone, News Rio, Purukawa, etc. The 3rd disc (what I think Tuffty posted) is segments that never made it to air, with titles like "
Hatsune Minori's Lonely Single-Person Cheer Squad", "
Kasumi Kaho's Doubts",
"Nishino Sho's Talk de Show", "
Acky's Zakkeroni "
, etc. The 'scandalous stories' hint at the contents of that third disc - stuff that never aired for one reason or another, but can be released now that the show is over. I'll translate a few:
•The headline next to Ogawa - “Suspicious?! Ogawa Asami. Mysterious sexy dance party”
•The one next to Kobayashi P - “Muscats love. K producer’s top secret text message obtained.”
•The rumored footage. Satomi Yuria confesses to K Producer.
•The darkness that the Muscats gravure members speak of
•Zako discloses one member's "forbidden relationship"
•The night of K-Dama N-Ko and one J-leaguer's 'Victory Goal'.
•And the one with Acky and Nishino "“Too Dangerous!! The Theater of N-No Sho’s twisted love for Acky”
Intriguing. And now I'm
super-excited about this box set, particularly the third disc.
And Yuria.. I want to see more about Yuria. She need to be paired with someone because as much as I know she didn't have a best buddy when she's on EbiMasu. Maybe she can be paired with Ogura, Kasumi or Aoi, the 'no shy and very confident' type of girl.
The impression that I got was that she was one of the more well-liked members of the group who got along with just about everyone. Her nickname within the group was Yuria Nee-san. Outside of the Muscats, she's a member of 'Pebu' - a friend group with Yamanaka, Kodama, Mui, and Rion that's kind of like a field trip/social activity group. Kind of like Aoi's DARA group with Rika and Nagasaku (and their non-showbiz friend).
If you ever came across the fan vid for Reikan Shoujo A, the song Kawamura Ena sang alone on the EbiMasu first album, then you will notice this is the episode that was used. I've searched for this specific episode: one, because Ena is a cutey; two, it's always a plus to see one of the back members in front of the cameras.
Thanks for posting this. I've always wanted to give this episode another look. I didn't really like it at first because I was less aware of how scripted the show actually was. I thought it really was just them following Ena around and documenting her bad luck. Now I want to go back and try to find whatever comedy seeds the staff might have planted.
