AKB48 continues to have many articles and picture features in UTB which has been a growing trend in these pages and (more ♥ for CK ne~!) they're really taking the idol group genre to chart topping heights in both position as well as sales~! Takusan~! AKB features in this issue!!! with both solo and group pictorials/articles on AKB48's Oshima Yuko & Maeda Atsuko, SKE48's Matsui Rena & Mukaida Manatsu as well as an AKB48 feature and a mini group named ”く~のね4”。。seifuku♥ so *kawaii*~!! ^ ^
H!P who's been a mainstay in UTB also has *cute* features on Maimai with additional off shots not included in her 1st solo shashinshuu~, an upcoming preview of Riichan's new shashinshuu always so *adorable* ne~! and Maimichan's♥ ongoing photo feature continues towards the back of this issue with what I think is possibly her most *kawaii* photo shoot to date for UTB~! \(^o^)/☆
While the format of UTB has seen so many changes over the years one of their staples has always been their high level of photography, engaging articles w/ idol games...news...interests..hobbies♥ as well as the occasional idol♥room invasion~! (・д・`*) With their glossy covers and flat spines back now for some time~ UTB has really returned to their original prestige in idol♥ publications setting the standard so much~.
The extras which in the past has included pull out posters, clear files and a most impressive DVD in each issue...now published every other month~ are randomly inserted photo trading cards and you'll receive with each issue a chance for one out of three possible sets~! This month I received set "A" and for the most part your favorite♥ idols are divided up pretty well within these card sets so for instance if you're a fan of either H!P or AKB48?SKE48 you'll receive at least one member in your set no matter if it's A, B or C~ ^ ^。
In addition...in the middle variety features section there's more on S/mileage with member profiles so you can learn their personalities much better, a solo shashinshuu article with Riichan♥ where she reflects on her previous pb releases~ and Nakki & Airiin preview C-ute's upcoming "best of" album which has a tentative release date of November 18th~!
Okay~! before I lull you into sleep ( 」´0`)」Zzzzzzz with any more of my talk~…(^q^) here are those aforementioned article's scans.....I'm beginning with Maimichan's♥ as I think it's the most *wonderful* pictorial in this issue and really she's just so so *adorable* here as she portrays daily activity *moments*~ from waking to playing to sleepy time here's Maimichan in "Days" vol.5 up first.....
Ichihashi was finally caught. It only took police almost three years.
He somehow managed to have a job and get lots of plastic surgery, despite being one of the most wanted men in the country.
This picture shows that he was starting to look a little Michael Jackson-ish (taken around midnight last night while being brought to Chiba police from a ferry port in Osaka, he was on his way to Okinawa apparently).
He's the guy who killed the 22-year old British English teacher, buried her in an unused bathtub on his porch, then ran away shoe-less when eight cops came to arrest him.
Earlier today I received some very exciting news from Anise & Cloves and this really involves one of J-Pops♥ most prestigious stars~☆!She debuted with such honors garnered through record breaking firsts in numerous sales and age categories~..and although I must shamefully (*´艸`) say that I've followed her music only through her early years from her debut with "Automatic" up till her third album (._.;)!....this is just such overwhelmingly exciting news for all Hawaii J-Pop♥ fans~! \(^o^)/☆ We truly haven't experienced an artist of this magnitude since Amuro♥Namie which seems so so long ago (;´□`)!
From Anise & Cloves I've heard the early details that Utada's concert will be held on January 15th, 2010 at 8 pm at our very own Pipeline Cafe....(which has hosted past H!P events) furthermore tickets will go on sale this coming Saturday and are only and I say only $30! ^ ^!I have a prior engagement at this time but I'm hoping to reshuffle something in my calendar to be able to attend too~.
Just got this email from my mama:
I sent you coffee and birthday card. I enclosed ichimanen [10,000yen]. Not much but you can buy some winter underwear or something. Be happy. Love you, Mother
And this was a line in an email from Tik (in reference to the fact that I might be over-watering the giant cactus from Fuckwater and killing it):
I don't think Fuckwater's giant penis (cactus needs) water twice a week. I'd do that every two weeks and even then, that might be too much. Don't kill it, its amazing.
Laughing my pants off. Going to work now.
Nick Counter died a few days ago, he was the president of Alliance of Motion Pictures and Television Producers for 27 years. He was 69. You can read the entire article here. 2 years ago, Don Imus was using a racial slur and flip remarks of the Rutgers' women's basketball team, compromising 8 black and 2 white players.
I now live with my father and my brother (Christopher) since he moved me and my brother to his apartment in Scotland Gardens' apartement in the city of Orange -- 2 years from now from graduation, and after leaving Livingston home -- also my mother's passing, 14 years ago since she didn't treat me right for "playing video games during school nights" when I was 5, she locked me in my room for two hours, then got away, leaving my trusted father and my brother behind before her absence. I was discovering a 13-year-old Korean acoustic guitar player, named "Sungha Jung" on his official website, and his YouTube channel.
It's been 10 years of playing RollerCoaster Tycoon games with the irony of crashing roller coasters and rides. I had Locomotion three years ago, but it doesn't work anymore due to "abnormal program termination" message on my new computer for almost five months old. I know that violating social networking sites' policies and guidelines can ban a person's IP address permanently. So I have decided to move to Union County, I really can't continue living in Essex County because of "IP address issues". It's me who gets tired of living is Essex County due to "IP address issues". You can read about the Chuck Taylor incident here. I have two Japanese-inspired books that "Mr. Wielgus" from Scotch Plains gave me, as shown below.
I hate the Korean. I hate him with a passion, he makes me want to throw up, he makes my skin crawl, I can't STAND him, and I want him to disappear.
He is disgusting.
I've cleaned my room, but haven't done the laundry yet. That will have to wait until Tuesday.
Goodnight, y'all.
So with bated *breath* (・д・`*) I wondered if this could possibly be the very first Momusu single~ that I'm not very fond of? Hmm....so not the case so....um Henkka aka "Henttai" now (^-^*) you may still make fun of me being so easy to please and liking..."everything?"…(^q^)! I'm still waiting for their accompanying pv DVD single to arrive so for now there are at least two pv versions to enjoy in the meantime~ ^ ^!
So this is Kohachan's last single with Momusu (;´□`) and while I still long to hear more songs specifically written for graduating members as with "Never Forget" and "Koi no kioku", still this is a *wonderful* single to remember as Kohachan's last~. "Kimagure Princess" is no doubt a throwback song~ taking the listener way back to two most prominent singles...those being among Tsunku's most creative masterpieces I think...in both "Koi no dance site" as well as "Happy Summer Wedding."
Morning Musume's "Kimagure Princess" can be ordered here at Cdjapan.
Both Japanese & Korean versions of Morning Musume's "Kimagure Princess" can be ordered herer at YesAsia.
Morning Musume's "Kimagure Princess" can be ordered here at HMV Japan.
Admittedly at first after hearing of vocal manipulation and maybe possibly some oddness??....I was so expecting Tsunku to have penned a single among the likes of his most awesomely quirky ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。"Chokotto Love♥!!"
Still one of the best strange songs that Tsunku has written to date~...the first time I listened to "Chokotto Love" I was like..E~h?! (・_・); but by my second listen I was is love♥ ………(゜∀゜)………。with this so fun song~! The pv is also quite priceless too~ so I've included the music video just below of my babbling here ↓↓↓。
(*sigh*) it was Sayaka's first and last single with Pucchimoni as she was soon to leave even Momusu (;´□`)。。。and it also marked about the central moment of Japan going from their most unique 3" CD single format to the conventional full sized disc for singles~. I say 'central' because I always found it quite interesting that Pucchimoni's "Chokotto Love" came in a full sized CD jewel case while the disc itself remained as a 3" sized disc~. Songs and Tsunku's imagination just doesn't get much more fun than this single♪♪~!!Quirky *perfection* o(*´∀`)o゛~♥。。。

Recently much of Momusu's LE's have included the now standard additional DVD~ leaving fans I'm sure wanting something just a little bit more out of the ordinary?....Here we'll receive the "Dance Shot Ver." of "Kimagure Princess"'s pv on LE type A, their "Close Up Ver." on LE type B (which is actually really mesmerizing!)....while the RE includes an application card for Momusu's release event which you need to be in Japan for~.
It's however LE type C which includes the most collectible extra♥!
It includes five two~sided alternate cover jacket sleeves with one for each individual member as well as an alternate group photo~!
Everyone has most steely looks in these solo covers~ with Aichan♥ being the most capable of seducing the camera~! I've included complete scans of each extra jacket sleeve just below...

This year, Sesame Street turns 40. I have been watching this children's TV show called Sesame Street when I was seven. Maybe they want to put a timeline of Sesame Street. Also, the Amazon Conduit on Vox has been fixed, so I will be buying my own domain blog without having to surf the internet ever again. The use of cursing, that's not good, you can view this. I went to Sesame Place in 2000. I used to go on Vapor Trail, then Sky Splash, then the maze that have bugs and mosquitoes, then the Nets & Climbs that I was afraid of heights, etc.
On this Vox post, three Little Einsteins pack kicks in:
I truly read each and every comment and PM left here taking everything to heart♥~ and although I know I've been late so often recently (ノロ≦。)!with replying it's really your comments and messages that have meant so much to me being here and writing this blog♥....I truly wouldn't be here without you♥~writing to me. *Thank you* so much for everything~!
♥MB o(*´∀`)o゛♥♥♥~!
