H!PE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAKKI! Besides learning nicknames (I didn't know Nakajima Saki was called Nakki, lol), I also need to pay more attention to H!P birthdays! This cute girl turned 16 today.

I never paid her much attention until I started this blog and listened to C-ute more. And I never really knew who she was (other than just a C-ute member), until I discovered Guardians 4. I do remember Saki being super adorable in Ooki na Ai de Motenashite. She has a great smile, and a lovely singing voice.

So, a very happy birthday to you, Nakki~



MEGUMI! Lol, since I'm already off-project in this entry, I figured I'd put my two Momusu & two Berryz covers in a seperate entry, and just add in another H!P vid here. I went with ZYX, which I love and adore because it's more Megumi.

I think it's sure to say that Megumi and Saki are my favorites in this group. Saki-chan is so freaking cute, and y'all know I love Megu. Erika is probably my third fave. It's hard for me to decide between the other three M's. Maimi, Momoko and Mari. I like all three of them. Probably the first two more so than Mari. idk. But younger ages make all of these girls entirely too kawaii.

And on top of all that, this song is SO cute! I love love love it~ All of it; the melody of the verses and chorus, as well as the lyrics. It's all so sweet. Definitely a fave of mine.



And OH EM GEE. Big thanks to Aly for giving me the link for Utaban episodes with Morning Musume. She is totally right; it's a great to hear them talk and get a better idea of their personalities, instead of just going off their voices. Remember when I said that after Asuka was gone, Kaori was my fave? I take it back!!

She is such a pouter! Some of the things she says, or the way she takes thing; UGH! That pouty face of hers is ridiculous! And she doesn't know when to quit and be quite! I'm don't know who is my fave out of the early Gens of Momusu. Asuka I liked. The rest I'm not sure about quite yet.

If you'd like to watch Utaban, notillegaluploads has a good amount of the MM ones up on YT, but I'm sure you can just type it in the search bar and find it. I'm still new to it, but I know they have more than just Morning Musume on there, so have fun~


I must say that Nacchi isn't so bad, attitude/personality-wise, from what I've seen. I just don't like her voice from back then. Today I was browsing profiles on hellproject.com and I saw that Natsumi and Maimi from C-ute did a duet together. So this is the random song I'm going to cover, since I didn't do one last entry.

This Nacchi I like! Her voice is way easier to stand now that it's matured some and she doesn't sing all whiney. I really like the chorus! Not the repetitive part, but after that. The melody the song starts out with. Both girls sound really good, even though I'm not a huge fan of either of them. And it's something different than Momusu or C-ute; their own little song.

I just had to share this beautiful picture of Yurina with you~ Ohmygosh, she looks SO pretty! I love love love it. I've considered making it my avatar, but I really like my Megumi one. So I saved the pic to use later on for something.

I haven't really raved all that much about Yurina yet, and she is one of my faves. I think she is often over-looked for Miyabi, Risako and Momoko (though she does have more lines than Maasa and Chinami). She is pretty and has a great voice! I'm not sure exactly why I like her so much, cause I like all the other Berryz girls too, but she just stood out to me, idk. SO, here is some Yurina info for y'all; [from the Hello!
