Cat's Eye 7 PV is Up~

When they announced this formation, I was ecstatic because the costumes looked so cool that they'd look like a bad-ass group. Plus this was specially made for the stage adaptation of one of my favorite childhood anime, Cat's Eye!! So I really prayed for this to get a PV...an AWESOME PV to be specific, Well, basically, they have provided a PV for this........but did I get what I want?

C-ute no Longer Cute w/ Aitai Aitai Aitai Na

Aitai Aitai Aitai Na MV has finally been revealed early this morning! Of all the releases from Hello! Project, C-ute's singles has always been my most awaited. So this was a fresh wake up call!

BeriKyuu turns into Highly Skilled Art Thieves

                                         Another awesomeness form HP and UFA!!!! HELL YEAH!

Berikyuu members, Saki Shimizu, Mai Hagiwara, Maasa Sudou, Maimi Yajima, Yurina Kumai, Saki Nakajima and Risako Sugaya will star in the upcoming stage play of the manga/anime Cat's Eye!!!! The girls will be forming a small group called Cat's Eye 7 and will be performing the theme song of the play. (I'm seriously hoping for a PV!!! I mean, look at those kickass outfits???)

DIY♡ is Hello! Project's New Unit!

Hello! Project has formed a new unit called DIY♡ or "Dance in Your ♥".

C-ute is just being CUTE!!

Finally, the official MV for C-ute's Sekaiichi HAPPY na Onna no Ko! The PV, for me is just another HP-way-of-thinking. It's colorful, where it features the girls in their official color, usual close-up versions where the girls are being cute and their usual dance shot.

The PV starts with the girls sitting in their lair, boxes, room or whatever you call it. And I like Maimi's poise in that pic btw..XD! In my opinion, the background seems to be lacking something, it's quite plain with the colorful boxes with the long colorful roads before them and the plain white background. My favorite part would probably be when the girls are lying with book and paper bags are surrounding them matching their colors. It's funny how the whole PV reminds me of my SCRAPBOOKING MATERIALS! hahahaha!

As for the costume, it looks like a simple version of their Edo no Temari Costume. I didn't like it that much but I'll leave it that way, I don't have anything more to add about it. I've noticed that the girls had their matching hair colors in them, among them, I Like Maimi's, I think it suits her well. I suggest they highlight Maimi's hair that way! Lol

Overall, the PV is FUN and CUTE! Just a typical HP PV and nothing new. I like the mature C-ute more and I hope that in their next single they do more of those things. And before I forget to mention, I think the line distribution is fair enough, everyone gets a decent line. Despite me being an Airi fan, I still don't like it when the others are just like back-ups. So thumbs up for another awesome single! Please support C-ute always!

Yajima Maimi Solo Chat

ocutechannel uploaded a video of Yajima Maimi, talking solo in Japanese.



And yes, we don't understand it.
Yet, English flooded in the comment area, proving how many international fans are supporting C-ute
I hope that'll help to convince them that at least sub future videos in English.. since we already have Maimi's own, i think there's more to come.. right?

For those who weren't able to watch the Live Streaming last Friday,

Here's the video of combi- Suzukyuu, as their Manager named it (why not Yajisuzu?!)
But it sounds cute, right? I just dunno where's Maimi's part on that name. It was said that both Airi and Maimi refused that name. hahah

Happy 6th Year Anniversary C-ute!

Happy Anniversary to C-ute~!

I never thought that it's already 6 years since they were announced as a group. I'm glad that they're still active as they always used to. 

All of their songs from the very first song they released until now are still suiting their personality, and their image. Even the Ooki na Ai de motenashite song still suits them. I'm glad that they release songs that has their personality, it makes me fall in love with them even more. Honestly, I'm a veeerrryyy BIG fan of them. 

As for their anniversary today, a thought stroke in my mind, and wondered if I can make a poll for the next header with the C-ute theme, which is now approved.
So it's now decided, the next weekly poll will be C-ute, and this will be choosing your most favorite single of them. Also, it'll be the whole week's theme song for the blog. :)
So, please look forward for the surprises, and keep in touch for the future entries. :)

Happy 6th

Anniversary

C-ute!

Let's keep supporting C-ute!

 The DVD for the Japanese horror drama titled "Keitai Kanojo" where Airi's in has been announced. This announcement provides a cover and some screenshots of the drama. The cover features Airi and her co-star Seika Taketomi(who plays as a ghost) holding a mysterious mobile phone.As for th screen shots, it already thrill us and excite us to watch this movie.

The DVD for Maimi's movie entitled "Black Angels" has been announced. This one as well was announced along with the cover and some screen shots. It's good to hear that many idols from H!P has been part of a movie.
The cover features Maimi wearing a pinkish japanese fighting outfit with some weapons on her leg, with her co-star in front of her. I love Maimi's expression and the way she shows her importance to the movie. The screen shots makes me thrill again. Maimi's fighting pose with her facial expression looks stunning as always.

Hopefully fans will have their copy for this DVD. This will be released this coming April 27.


3. C-ute – “Kiss Me Aishiteru” Full Preview

A full radio rip preview for "Kiss Me Aishiteru" has been released. The song has a mature and cool tone as what Chisa said when they announced about this single. I love the starting of the song, it has a unique melody. Many parts of the song are being echoed by each of the members such as "nee" and "please" around the chorus. Many unique touches has been added too like "love me" and "kiss me" which makes the song show their uniqueness. This song reminds me of Morning Musume "Egao Yes Nude", the outfits as well, since it's purple.
As for the outfits, they got a golden upper and a purple shorts. It has a great combination of colors.  The shoes used are catchy, for a girl like me.


This single will be released this coming February 23.

C-ute 15th Single "Kiss Me Aishiteru"

C-ute's 15th single has been announced several days ago, with the title and the release too. The single was entitled Kiss Me Aishiteru. It was announced from Chisato's post in C-ute's gree blog. According to her, this single will be more mature and cooler than their past single "Aitai Lonely Christmas"


I'm a little bit surprised when I heard that their 15th single has been announced not a month after the release of the last single, and it has a very catchy title for me, of course. As for the word cool, we can somewhat expect a little that this single will be more lively but has a mature tone than the last single, to say the least.

Kiss Me Aishiteru will be released this coming February 23, 2011.

Niigaki Risa, Tanaka Reina, Tsugunaga Momoko, Suzuki Airi, and Yajima Maimi have each released a cover

I'm so happy to hear that Gaki, Reina, Momochii, Airi, and Maimi released a cover of Morning Musume's subgroup Tanpopo song called "Seinaru kane ga Hibiku Yoru". I'm not really yet familiar to this song, so I tried to listen this song in Youtube and it's totally a great song. This one has a little theme of Christmas since the original PV of this song that I just watched has snowflakes, the members wearing red winter clothes, and also a white fluffy ones, ringing bells, and more things that describes the season of Christmas. I'm so excited to hear Gaki's cover (Gaki's voice suits to this song), and also the other's cover too. I hope Mai Hagiwara will have one too, and also Chisa and Nakky. I'm really excited their covers. Uhmm.. Hey wait! did Chisato released a cover in iTunes sometime ago? I can't remember the date it was released. The others said that it's her first own single released, but I think it is only a cover of an H!P song, I can't really remember what song it is. Oh, anyway,  it is already available in iTunes. I can't listen to the covers since I don't have iTunes, but to those who have.. Enjoy!

Here's the original PV of this song..
