Konnichiwa! It's now time to present our final tribute plan for Berryz Koubou's Hiatus!
Well, it's still quite a shock for me that they'll be having an indefinite hiatus (which sounds like a graduation) but anyways, just before they have their final concert before their hiatus, let's give them a present as a symbol of their hard work and inspiration they have given to us.
So here we go!
For this tribute, we will have a little twist! We did a sing and dance with photo tribute videos last time (Sayumi Michishige's Graduation Tribute), this time, we will have a full dance cover of their famous songs which will be done in a remix/medley, and for those who will not be doing the dance cover, worry not! you can also take part with it by sending a photo of you holding a paper with your message for BK. (more like a fansign ^_^)
But this time, also, we'll just make messages like "Gambatte Berryz Koubou!", "I <3 Berryz Koubou!", or "Thank you Berryz Koubou!",(either in Japanese or English is fine) short and meaningful. We don't want to make messages that are long and unreadable, since your photos will only be shown for 5 seconds max, viewers will not be able to read everything. It's up to you if what message you want to send for Berryz, as long as it's short and readable.
We made fans vote for the songs they want to include in the medley/remix for the tribute.
Here's the final list:
- Anata Nashi de wa Ikite Yukenai
- Special Generation
- Dakishimete dakishimete
- Cha Cha Sing
- Futsuu, Idol 10nen Yatterannai Desho!?
- Towa no Uta
Few days ago, we have opened a so-called "auditions" for those who wants to take part in the dance cover. Admin Miyo and I decided that we will only accept 5 groups since it might be difficult for us to edit the tribute afterwards, handling too many videos. Each continent will have a representative (N&S America, Asia, Europe, Australia and Africa). If, for example, there will be no representative from Africa, then we will have 1 more group from a continent.
For the meantime, there are already 3 groups who are officially in for doing the dance cover.
Here's the group who will officially do the dance cover tribute
Pastel☆Girls (Europe)
Lumina Scarlet (Asia)

For those who will do the photo tributes, kindly send it to emceepurplemee@gmail.com with the subject "Berryz Koubou Tribute". Deadline of this one will be on January 30, 2015, 12 NN Philippine Time
