My poll results (Hello!Blog) 2010

I've just taken part in Paul's poll on his blog Hello!Blog and I found it very hard to complete my vote xD But here they are…

~My Hello Project member ranking~

And here is my unit ranking.

~My Hello Project unit ranking ~

I found it so hard to choose my favorite members… sigh. But I had to make my choice xD
I
t wasn't hard putting Momo on my top1, but the following members where hard >o< Because I've become more interested in Risako and Chinami lately I ended up putting them on my top2 and top3 (even though I still feel a little bad about Miyabi being on top4…)

Lately I've started to like S/mileage a lot, which are the simple reason why my favorite member from the unit Wada Ayaka has moved all the way up to my top6 xD I like the other members too, but they can't beat Maasa, Yurina, Gaki and Junjun~ ^  ^

I know it looks harsh to put Airi all down to 14th place, but recently she hasn't done much for me, I don't know… I just think she gets a little too much attention, when other members are just as talented (*cough* Maimai *cough*) And now I haven't ever hold the big interest for C-ute, so that's the reason for my low rankings for C-ute members.

I had a hard time placing Mano Erina too. I think I have some kind of love/hate relationship towards her >O< Sometimes I like her, because of her cute looks and personality. But at the same time I'm not too much fond of her singing voice… :/ I also reckon she gets overly much attention/promotion… (both in magazines, television and public promotion – like she just got her own FC Bus Tour Event :/) Maybe UFA should give C-ute or Buono a little more promotion, they need it more. That's my opinion :)

Sorry Aika.. I had to put somebody in the last place position… xD

A long awaited order arrives… ~*O*~

~Yesasia goodies~ xD ***’

I've waited over a month for this order! Normally it only take 7-14 days for delivery for Yesasia, it's probably the wild winter weather we have had recently which slowed it down -_- But now I've finally received the wonderful goodies, I'm going to gush very very much over it ^O^ heheh ;)

My order consist of

• Ranie's brand new album: Rainie & Love…?
• The highly acclaimed Arashi concert: ARASHI Around Asia 2008 in Tokyo
• The epic Berryz vs. C-ute concert in Nakayoshi: Berryz Koubou & C-ute Nakayoshi Battle Concert Tour 2008 (Berryz Kamen version)
• Extra: Japan Mini – Rilakkuma Maskot Wall Pocket Christmas

I was really REALLY happy when I finally got to open up these little treasures! I opened the Rainie album first:

Cover

I was totally taken aback by the beautiful cover with Rainie<3 How can a gal be that pretty?! xD

Inside, postcards and booklet

I've never purchased a album in such a different shape and style! It's absolutely stunning! I got 4 postcards for her new drama "Hi! My Sweetheart!", I think they were randomly selected, because some of them were a little funny ^^; I'm totally in love with the booklet – it's baby pink!!!<3 I adore the "rain" theme, she looks good damn gorgeous in that white dress! The umbrella handle was decorated with white little pearls – LOVE!! And then, they have somehow managed to make the rain look pink, it's so girly and pretty<3 ;3

Now to the songs.
The first track I've already heard many times in the new drama – "Yu Ai" but now listening to the full version and in much better quality, I think the song is even better! It's such a beautiful song<3 ^^ The second song "In Your Eyes" is a duet with Show Luo (the guy who plays the male protagonist in Hi! My Sweetheart) and when I heard it the very first time, I had a little shock, because I didn't expect a male voice just after the first song! Lol xD But the song was pretty nice, but not something special :)
The third song ROCKS! XD "Tick Tock (Beat The Clock)" is such a cool song and reminds me of electro pop! (and the tick tock part reminds me of "What Are You Waiting For" by Gwen Stefani!) Probably my favorite song on the whole album! :O
Then the three following songs are all ballads – very normal Rainie songs – but otherwise fantastic as always<3
The seventh song "On The Beat" also has a quite different style than her previous songs. It's an up-beat, cute and very much hilarious song :D I really like it, at any rate one of my favorite songs<3 ^o^
The eight song "Jue Dui Da Ling" has a somewhat acoustic feel to it? It sounds really lovely and is a very relaxed song – also one of the top songs on this album ;3
The lyrics for the ninth song "Love Rocks" are really crazy! In the chorus Rainie sings in such a fast pace that it on some point sounds like pure gibberish (maybe because I don't understand Chinese? lol) but it actually make the song stand out and after hearing a couple of times, it's a really great and neat song<3 ^o^b Also one of my favorites.
The tenth song plays so suddenly you can't believe it XD Haha The final song on the album "Er Du Lian Ai" is (surprisingly) a ballad song ^3^ It's a pretty song, but then again – she has done so many ballads now, it's not the most sensational song on the album. If you know what I mean? ^-^; But still a nice song :)
My final opinion of this album is: Fantastic album – my favorite of the whole bunch!<3 :D
(Always wanted to do this –>) Rating: 9/10 ~

Afterwards, I opened the Berryz/C-ute concert DVD, and as always the cover is in a smooth quality~ (wonderful, wonderful ^O^) Watched it this evening, and I got to describe it with one word: EPIC!
When Berryz and C–ute perform with combined power, it gets on a totally different level :O They look so good together xD But then the concert also made me a little sad, because Kanna and Erika still were a part of the group, I couldn't stop thinking about the new 5-nin group… How I wished they still were together… T-T *sob* Love Kanna-chan so much! >o< The Berryz Kamen and C-ute Ranger "play" was really funny, I enjoyed it very much :D

Arashi Around ASIA in Tokyo

Then I opened the Arashi Around ASIA concert DVD<3 The bluish cover is transparent, and the yellow color of the A is actually provided by the yellow booklet inside the dvd! :O Such a cool detail XD Now I haven't watched it yet, but it has received so many great comment from other fans, I have a feeling it's going to be a awesome concert! ^O^ Well, when Nino-kun is performing, all it's perfect ^#^

~Xmas Korilakkuma~

The last thing I opened was the Japan Mini toy, which came as and extra goodie from Yesasia ^^ I choose a Christmas themed Rilakkuma toy<3 Then I can use it next Xmas ^O^

 All in all, a great batch this month!! x3

Look forward to the new Buono! album and Berryz concert next month! ^^

Buono's 3rd single: "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!" first press limited edition

Buono 3rd Single – Cover

Sorry about the bad quality, the weather was dark when I shot it >.< My camera is awful in dark weather… But anyway, I really LOVE this Buono cover! It's simply gorgeous, and every member look stunning! XD

The inside was really something too! I've never seen a single done in such fine details! Incredible! I really like the CD discs and the picture of Buono behind the DVD, cool clothes<3 The CD card was just small though, a little disappointing… But nice pictures again! ^.^ I really love these songs of Buono, they never disappoint me with their singles! I'll say the Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! song is my favorite, but Minna Daisuki is really nice too! <3 It's nice the lyrics are marked in colors after each member, so you don't have to listen hard on which member who is singing! ^o^ Yay
 
Berryz Koubou – 4th Ai no Nanchara Shisuu CD (taiwan version)

Berryz Koubou 4th album – Cover

I was a little sad when I opened this package, because the plastic case was broken along the border… It also happened with my Arashic CD… nande?! DX *Sigh* I know I survive, but still, it's irritating! I like the cover, but it's even more exciting when you can decide for yourself which cover you want! :D

I got cover cards with the CD, one of each member plus a group cover XD They all look pretty ~ <3 ^-^ Right now I have the Momoko cover :3 My favorite Berryz ^o^

Here are picture from the inside and the back cover:

The whole maid theme is really cute, and fits well with the group's name which means "Berryz Workshop" ^_~ deshou? The CD looks great too. I ordered this CD after I had watched their summer concert from 2007, which contains many of the songs on this album. I really liked the songs: Sayonara Hageshiki Koi, Watashi ga Suru Koto nai Hodo Zenbu Shite Kureru Kare (the Momoko and Risako duet), Sprinter! (the Saki and Miyabi duet) and Ai no Suki Suki Shisuu Joushouchuu! Such lovely songs! <3 This is a great CD anyone!
 
Hello! Project 2007 Summer 10th Anniversary Dai Kanshasai ~Hello! Project Natsu Matsuri!~ DVD (2 disc)

2007 Summer 10th Anniversary Concert – Cover

Since I got this DVD yesterday, I haven't had the time to watch it yet, but I think I'll watch it tomorrow, because I can't wait! XD I hope it will be great (>U<)/

Shugo Chara vol. 5 Limited Edition in Japanese

Shugo Chara vol

I bought this manga, because I'm a Shugo Chara fan and I simply just wanted to own a "limited edition" which includes the coolest post cards ever! They are really lovely! <3 And then I can also improve my hiragana and katakana (and maybe even kanji) skills, when reading it in Japanese! XD It will definitely be fun!

I just love the cover and layout! <3 It's so adorable! I can't understand how Peach-Pit do it XD The case is really neat and shiny, so lovely! <3 I was surprised when I opened the manga, it contained color pages! :O So cool.. But I'll first be able to read it after I buy Shugo Chara vol. 4 (which I will do next week) I look forward to it ^.^
Here are some pictures of the post cards

Nice post cards nee? X3 My favorite card is number one, I like her Amulet Heart transformation<3 But the other cards are also pretty!
 
Shugo Chara DS-game: "Shugo Chara! Three Eggs and the Joker in Love!"

Shugo Chara DS game – Cover

When I watched the trailer for this game, I just knew that I had to buy it! XD The cover looks great and the game is nice too, but maybe the mini games are a little too easy if you ask me ^_^ I hope they will get tougher later :) It's really challenging to understand all the comments the persons say, but I do my best! It's funny when the persons say something out load (even though it oftens just are a single sound or word like "gomen" or "un" ^o^) I'm glad that they used the original voices from the anime as well, that's great! ^_^

I really like all my new stuff, Yesasia daisuki ~yo<3
