Tamura Meimi's graduation

As of yesterday (May 30th), Tamura Meimi has graduated from Angerme and Hello Project at Angerme's Tour final in Budokan. Meimei is a really precious girl with a lot of talent and personality, and I like her a lot. So of course I'm doing a graduation post about her. 
So let's look at her in S/mileage and Angerme's music videos:

In 2011 12 year old Tamura Meimi auditioned for of S/mileage, became a sub-member and later a full 2nd generation member of the group. Since then she has been active as a Smileage and afterwards as an Angerme member. Since the beginning she was pushed to the front a lot, even though she was the youngest of the group at that time. At first I thought she was just a little bit childish, since she had a chipmunk voice and together with her vampire teeth, I thought she was a bit weird. But as she grew up, I figured out that she is REALLY talented. Her voice got really, really good, her dancing is on point and her acting is amazing. Seeing her growing up so much was one of the reasons I started following S/mileage a bit more. And then I watched Lilium and was once again amazed by her professionalism. I would say she is one of the best singers in H!P, and she is only 17!!!
At first MeiMei didn't seem to be very happy with the name change and the new mmebers as Angerme. But later on she started to really love the group and I appreciate her kindness towards her kouhais. She also seems like a pretty strict teacher, but she's just such a precious human being.
I also love how she's such a big fan of Showa Idols, because I myself also quite like them!

As for her future, I really hope to see a lot more from her. I really hope her wish to be a professional singer/ musical artist will become true and I wish her the best of luck. 

She's the cutest!!! T.T

Shiritsu Ebisu Chuugaku - Anarchy ~unboxing~

Here is my unboxing of Shiritsu Ebisu Chuugaku's 3rd album Anarchy (regular).
Yes, I had to buy this album. It has been a while since I wrote about Ebichuu, but I still love them. I'm really happy about Hinata's return and didn't mind the postponing of the album. Because now I'm even more excited about this release!! So let's take a look at it.


This time the members are standing behind a really big picture of themselves, only showing their faces. It looks pretty funny, though I would have preferred a normal picture like on the first two albums. Anyways, as always they have really nice outfits, though AiAi's is really interesting. XD
And they are even doing the same poses as before.


Backside with the tracklist. This time the packaging has a lot of yellow.


Though the Obi is blue, haha xD


Inside of the case with even more yellow.


On the CD we can see the faces of the members. This looks pretty funny XD


Cover once again. I love how Hinata is so tiny XD


Title and tracklist. And I love that EBichu writing


Oh right, apperantly there is an app. But I gues it exists only in Japan.. *sigh*


Lyrics, lyrics, lyrics


Lyrics with the faces of Rika and Ayaka


Here we can see Aika and Mirei


Rina and Hinata


And Kaho and Riko.



Interestingly, the booklet isn't only yellow!! The colours are really interesting.


Last pictures without the faces! And credits of course


Aaaaand I got Rina!! She's so gorgeous and beautiful and I'm so happy to have her card :3

Tracklist:
1. Umete Agetai (Interlude)
2. Zette Anarchy
3. Haru Yasumi Morotorium Chuugakusei
4. Popcorn Tone
5. Nikibi
6. Ebichuu Shusseki Bango no Uta Sono 2
7. Mabui Raga Typhoon (Interlude)
8. Natsudaze Johnny
9. MISSION SURVIVOR
10. Nachu Melo Rendez-vous
11. Ana Aki in the Yuukei (Interlude)
12. Ponpara Pecorna Papiyotta (performed by 5572320)
13. Onegai Jesus
14. Zenryoku Runner
15. Super Hero
16. Sanmaime no Tough Gaki

Once again, Ebichuu has a pretty long tracklist. I'm also really happy that they are staying with the Interludes. Okay, they are mostly only the girls talking or making weird noises, but I think they are funny. I like the songs a lot, especially the tro promotional songs Zette Anarchy and Nikibi (a song about pimples!!!). Adding to that of course the two singles, but also Haru Yasumi Morotorium Chuugakusei (which is a lot of fun), MISSION SURVIVOR (a fast and crazy song), Zenryoku Runner (which is kinda inspriring and a really ncie song) and Sanmaime no Tough Gaki (which has a more EDM-Style). And it's awesome to have Ebichuu Shusseki Bango no Uta sono 2, because it's the song where the members are introducing themselves and I love these type of songs! :)
I'm really happy with this purchase and Ebichuu is as awesome as ever.

Morning Musume '16 - Utakata Saturday Night!/ The Vision/ Tokyo to iu Katasumi Regular A ~unboxing~

Today I will do an unboxing of Morning Musume 16's newest single Utakata Saturday Night!/ The Vision/ Tokyo to iu Katasumi regular A.
I'm really excited, because this is Zukki's last single and she graduated from the group today. Because of that she is kinda centering one song, which is so cool!!


Of course I bought the type with Zukki in the middle. But I also like the song the best, so yeayy. Nice cover, and the outfits are interesting. But what's Duu doing? XD


Backside


 The white Obi with a little bit of Maachan's foot. XD


Inside of the CD case


The disco feeling is really strong!!
Even though it'S a lot of black, I love this design.


And the amazing cover again. Everyone looks really beautiful!


Lyrics of the three songs.


And the backside with another group shot.


Aaaaaaand my bonus photocard is Maachan. Yessss!! Of course I would have preferred to get Zukki or (as always) Duu. But I like Masaki, too and she is so cool and mature in this single. I love, how she is slowly growing up though I hope she will always stay funny.


CD Tracklist:
1. Utakata Saturday Night!
2. The Vision
3. Tokyo to iu Katasumi
4. Utakata Saturday Night! (instrumental)
5. The Vision (instrumental)
6. Tokyo to iu Katasumi (instrumental)

The tracklist of this single is amazing. Utakata Saturday Night! reminds me of older Momusu songs and it's just soooo much fun. This is Zukki's song and I'm really she got such a positive song. I'm definetely gonna write about it. The Vision had to grow a bit on me, but now I also really like it. It's a bit more slower, but still pop and it highlights the 12th gen. Tokyo to iu Katasumi is the closest to EDM-Momusu, but it's a really interesting song with cool instruments (violins and stuff).
I definitely recommend this single, even if you normally aren't a H!P fan!

ズッキ卒業おめでとう!
