....., the ........

The graduation is over. Okay, it was already some days ago. But I didn't find the right word. :)
I just watched a video from JIJIPRESS. And it showed me some interesting sides of the MM-members. Especially about the younger members. Even if I understood just one word. Daisuki.
Haruka and Masaki really impressed me during their graduation messages for Gaki. They were so strong. You always expect the youngest to be the ones who cry the most, but not these two. The youngest Kyuukies Riho and Kanon, they both took it with a smile but could impress their feelings pretty good.

So Riho, Kanon, Haruka & Masaki are the strong ones.

Ayumi and Haruna... aww... they were crying so hard. And they were so cute. I expected especially Ayumi for not crying so hard. I don't know why. She has a strong aura. But it was nice to see her softer site.

Ayumi & Haruna, the cute ones.


And now... Eripon. Oh my god, it broke my heart to see Eripon crying so hard. She looked so worn out. And to see her crying so hard, remembered me a lot of Yossy's graduation where Ai-chan cry so hard as well. Or Nacchi's, with Nono. But I don't remember that as good as Yossy's graduation. No idea, why. :P But Ai-chans crying was because of graduating a long time friend. Friendship is a strong feeling. And Eripons crying was even harder in my eyes. Her love for Risa is enormous. I like that side of Eripon. Because I'm the same. If I would be Eripon and Risa would be Yossy it would have looked the same, I guess. But I think I would've resigned immediately to go where ever Yossy goes. Is it embarrassing to say that? Maybe. Especially for a person of my age. Who cares. Eripon and I, we are fans and proud of it. Muhaha!

Eripon, the Risa fanclub president.

Mizuki was first really strong but then tears came as well. I have no idea what she said, she mentioned Eripon a lot and H!P. You could feel Mizukis love for H!P. Mizuki is my new hope for leadership. I want to see her leading MM. With her best buddy Eripon at her side. But now, I don't have the feeling that I will see her leading MM. But I have to say I saw Aika leading MM and that won't happen. So, no idea. I would be interesting to see her leading.


Mizuki, the H!P wota and future leader. (Yeah, Reina you've heard right. :-D)

Reina was one of the 3 girls who didn't surprise me. Her words for Aika were more than kind, adorable actually. And even if I didn't understand her message to Risa, I know a bit of the content. What didn't surprise me actually. These had problems with each other. No idea what kind of, but I don't think it's strange. They are both strong personalities. That not everything went well between them is only logical. I'm not a Reina fan. But I like her. Of current MM she holds the last place. I don't like her yankee image, because I don't really think she was a yankee. First, she was too young to be a yankee before joining MM. And second, the riding that horse for a bit too often. And she enjoys the role a bit too much in my eyes. And a yankee idol wouldn't care about that a lot. And a yankee joining MM.... nay~.... The only person in MM I would believe that she's been one is Empress Yuko. (Actually I would believe everything she says, but that's another story. So ssssh. Her husband is one lucky man. <3)
There is one thing I love about Reina. She has these incredibly weak moments during graduations and you can see that she has a hard time, but she tries everything not to loose her face. But you can read her like an open book. I like people with this characteristic.

Reina, the not-so-soldier-like soldier.

Sayumi. Sayumi surprised me. I thought she only has eyes for Ai-chan but that her love for Risa is that deep as well. I never recognised that. And her being the leader is a nice development. I have faith in her.

Sayu, the Risa friend.

Risa. The lovely Risa. She was fully herself. Absolutely Risa. Tears were running down her face and a smile was on her face as well. And almost every MM-member said Daisuki. Except the other senpais. But they have been together for so long, I think they know how they feel for each other.

Risa, the beloved leader.

And now Aika. Aika. Aika. Aika. Aika was the 3rd girl who didn't surprise me. She was a soldier. She is a soldier. She will always be a soldier. When I saw her holding her graduation speech, fighting with her tears and winning over them. I was so proud. I didn't know that I felt about her in that way, but I do. I hope I will become a soloist and sing songs that suit her voice. Her voice is lovely and when she learns to controll it better, she can have a great career, I guess. But I'm still sad, that she will never lead MM.

Aika, the soldier.

Dark Times are coming closer...(4 days!)

Do I now sound like Morning Musume will be ruined without Gaki and Aika?

I don't hope so. I mean, that I sound like that. Morning Musume are doing great at the moment and I'm really impressed by the the stage presence the Kyuukies and Juukies show. Ayumi is blowing me away, by the way. I thought she would be more the dancer in Team Juukie, but I didn't expect her to be the ace. I think MoMusu will do good without Aika and Gaki.

The thing that bothers me about the graduation is more that we won't see a lot of Gaki and Aika anymore, I mean not as much as we see now. Which means for Aika almost nothing. I hope they will find a good place for her in H!P. Aika has a good voice and when she trains it, she could be a good soloist, I think. I mean, she was chosen over Kikka in the 8ki audition and that has to say something. I'm a bit concerned for her. But Aika is a fighter, she can face everything, I guess.

And Gaki... well, MM without Gaki... Hm. I couldn't think about MM without Ai-chan, which makes it easier to think about MM without Gaki. That she graduates is hard. All graduations are hard for me. I'm not sure if I can't live without Gaki's supervoice in MM. I will have to. It's definitely a lost. A big one. I fell in love with Gaki through Mr. Moonlight ~Ai no Big Band~. OK, I thought it's Ai-chan. Or I was hoping it's Ai-chan. :-P But it was Gaki. Cute little Gaki. I'm in love with Yossy, what makes it really hard for someone else to be liked by me. (When Yossy is around.) Koha is also a favourite of me. So is Eri. Then we had Erina and Zukki. Haruka. Gaki was liked, but just loved in Mr. Moonlight. (I really hope she will sing it at the graduation.) It needed some time for Gaki to come over Mr. Moonlight's awesomeness, but she made it. No idea how, no idea when. But she occupied a part of my heart. I will really miss her in MM. I'm still hoping a bit that she will come out on graduation day and will say: "It was a joke! I won't graduate!" Erina wouldn't be the only one dying from a heart attack, I guess. :-D

But that are just hopes of a selfish fangirl. (But I can still hope till I was proven wrong.)

I think I will continue to like MM. They are great and if they make more songs like Renai Hunter, they can have a great future. I'm only a bit concerned about the age gap. Even Haruna is 4 years younger than Reina and Sayu. It feels a bit like teachers and their students. We will see what happens, but I'm sure they will do great. Just like Aika and Gaki.

And now a fitting song for strong Aika and strong Gaki.
Strong Yossy:

( p_q)

Aika will graduate with Risa on May 18th. This month is getting worse and worse. And it's only the 4th.

My two favourite Senpai. I'm devastated. I still have faith in MM. I will always have. I won't give them up. Never. But I hope that they will make Aika a worthy graduation. Not like the Mako/KonKon graduation. And a solo single would be nice for Aika, too. She had a hard life in MM (physically). She deserves a great graduation. And I hope this graduation will be last for the next... more than 2 years. Please. Except Riho would go solo. Gocchin-style. I could see that coming.

Reina & Sayu: You two can make that. Lead MM as equal partners and not as rivals for the leadership.

Statement. Of. The. Day.

 Question of Pocket Morning was: If you could ask God one thing, what would it be?

I'd like to switch with Morning Musume's Tanaka Reina-san.

 Haruka ftw. Please God. Do so. :D
Reina is great, but... please... Harukaaaaa. <3

Risako, Airi, Mizuki and Masaki

Something surprising happened. I opened up my heart for Risako, Airi, Mizuki and Masaki.
They weren't my least favorites, but I actually didn't care for them. And not caring, means not caring.
I will now tell you, what made me like them. One by one.

Risako:
She was for me the Sayu of Berryz. And Sayu of Berryz means, she was the one, I always forgot, when I was counting them. Same happened to me with Sayu. She was just the voice, I always hoped it's Captain's. But then... I don't know how it happened, but I kinda started to like her voice. Elegant Girl is a brilliant song. I've bought some of her Hello! Cover songs (sadly they are broken, because my PC couldn't download them probably) on iTunes. She has a really clear voice. Ah! I just remembered how I started to like her! It was a solo performance of her. I don't remember the concert, but the song was Hajimete Kuchibiru wo Kasanatea Yoru. It was just beautiful.

Airi:
Risako was the reason, that I took an eye or ear on Airi. I was buying Risako's Hello! Covers and I was complaining because they didn'tgive Yurina the oppurtunity too. And then I was thinking, to whom I could listen next and decided to choose Airi and fell in love with her Furusato. Airi isn't and will never be my favorite °C-ute member, ( okay, I prefer her over 4 Berryz members) but she really has a beautiful voice.

Masaki:
Masaki is like meh! She is almost boring in my eyes. The reason could be that she is always next to Haruka in my brain and that makes it easy to choose. I loved Haruka, before she became a Juukie, I bet a lot of you did, so Haruka always had a personality for me. And then they put a small, shy, same-aged and close in looking girl next to her. No way, she could win over Haruka, but with the new Ultra Smart pics, I recognised something. The shyness disappeared. She is looking like a Momusu now. She is for her age a real beauty. With a bit more liveliness in front of a camera, she could be doing great in this group. She could be the next Eri, the diamond of MM.

Mizuki:
The kyuukies are my favorite MM generation. I love the 9nin Momusu with them. They had great songs, great videos and they changed the sound of MM, just like the 4th gen did. The only thing bothering me was Mizuki. Fukuhime. I never understood how people could like her. And I still don't get it. But I was ordering some pictures on H!O lately, and I found myself ordering Fukuhime's pics. That was strange. I don't know what drew me to do that. Mizuki is pretty, and I don't know, but I have the feeling that she is caring a lot about the other members. Mother-like. I like something like that, and I am curious, if Fukuhime will get a bigger spot in my heart in the future.

New Layout + Nishi-san

I love my new layout. I made it, and I am not always satisfied with my works, but I actually like this one. Nishijima Hidetoshi-san (Nishi-san for me) is the heart of the header and surrounded by my girls. It was really hard to find a way to include my girls, but I'm happy with the result. :)
I am absolutely into Nishi-sans J-Dramas in the last time. I have started with Strawberry Night, and then I watched Boku to Star no 99 Nichi. His characters Kikuta and Kohei couldn't be more different. Kikuta is the cool dude, who isn't talking a lot. And Kohei is an absolute scapegoat, There aren't many episodes, where he doesn't have to use plaster. He is so hilarious. I was really worried I wouldn't like Kikuta anymore after watching Boku to Star. I was falling for Kohei that much, that I thought Kikuta would be to stiff. But Strawberry Night is still ongoing and Kikuta is getting cuter and cuter. Even if a cop shouldn't be cute. He is adorable. He is caring so much for his boss, Himekawa Reiko(Takeuchi Yuko). The fun thing is, that Reiko seems to know about him and occasionally teases him a bit with it. But he isn't really getting it. Maybe there is still a lot of Kohei in him. :D

Time for some pic spam!

My dear brochacho or "Rache ist Blutwurst"...

So, brochacho. It's time. It's your birthday.
