Yo-Yo Girl Cop dvd extras picspam

Morningtime is ecstatic about an H!P related product being released in the UK. So he has treated us to a whole bunch of stills from the DVD’s bonus features! I actually have a limited edition 2-disc version of this film, but mine doesn’t have any subtitles on the bonus features. From the looks of it, the UK versions’ extras are all subtitled. So this is probably the best version to be released to date.

Like Morningtime, I highly recommend this DVD. And if you can get the version with the bonus features (with or without subs) you are in for a real treat!

v-u-den disbanded over the weekend. There were lots of reactions and I apologize that they are so late on reaching IW. Some bloggers took it as an opportunity to revisit what they loved about the group; while others expressed frustration over the breakup. Most people showed concern about what the future holds for Miyoshi Erika and Okada Yui. Meanwhile, nearly everyone - some begrudgingly - are of the belief that Rika’s career will not be affected too dramatically by v-u-den breaking up.

Random Thoughts

Morningtime begins his post with his discovery of v-u-den PVs and the dirtiness of them. Then he dwells a bit on one of the members with screenshots from Jaja Uma Paradise. He then reveals the two reasons he loves v-u-den.

After that, he lists his most played songs, dwells a bit on W eyecandy, and then suggests there needs to be a Hello! Project board game. The best part of the board game is this:

“you bump into Kusumi in the street. Miss two goes while you give her a tranquilizer”

Elder Club 2008 - The ladies are at their peak!

Recommended reading. Madara shares his own unique take on the Elder Club concert DVD from the four-disc set. I especially like how he takes issue with the opening number of “Joshi Kashimashi” in maid uniforms - he finds it beneath the ladies’ dignity. I’m left thinking, “Since when has being an idol had ANYTHING to do with dignity?”

Morning Musume, Berryz and V-u-den Visual Screens

Tom (I just realized I’ve been calling him Paul, when his nickname is Tom XD… Sorry about that Tom!) shares info about more H!P visual screens which are available for purchase. Looks like Berryz, C-ute and Morning Musume aren’t the only H!P groups to get the screens, for Biyuuden gets their turn in their final single outfits. It seems that there are also group visual screens out.
