Momoiro Clover Z - Neo Stargate PV

So a new MCZ PV is already out and the title is Neo Stargate. Here are a few of my thoughts on the PV

1. I find it interesting that KWKM is in the PV and he clearly mentions the about the next step after Kouhaku. Though the answer is just "Love", but it just sets up the group for their next big step. If there's anything about MCZ is that their goals are clear to the fans and not just some Oricon rank goal. Now that Kouhaku is cleared, next up is that Olympic stadium!

2. Music is cool, I absolutely love the bridge and the chorus part. However, what's with the thing about adding electronics to idol songs lately? Everyone wants to be a perfume wannabe now...

3. I don't really see any clear chanting parts for this song TT_TT its going to be another song that you're just standing there and enjoying it. Not so hyper on this one. In this department, it isn't very MCZ for me... If there's anything that I love about MCZ is the chanting because their chant are so much fun.

4. Momoka clearly gained weight lol. I guess a few months of rest adds a few pounds to that little frame of hers. But she's still adorable~ <3

5. I love the solo parts in this song,

Japan Trip 2012 Report #4 : MCZ in Saitama Super Arena Da Z!!!

So now Day 3, Asakusa, Japan.

I woke up that day, with some serious sore at my feet.. For an instance I thought that I could never walk out of my hotel... but after some really good rest and massaging, I braved myself out.

So today's plan was pretty simple, go to Saitama and watch Momoiro Clover Z. Now I just have to say that me getting a ticket for this show is already pretty much a huge miracle by itself. MCZ is just so famous right now in Japan that tickets are getting sold out in less than a few hours nearly all the time. I got mine for about 16000yen.... 16 freaking thousand Yen... I can buy 16 handshake event ticket and see Umeko/Reia yesterday for that much of money. I thought that was pretty bad but apparently there are people who bought the ticket at 40000yen for the same show on auction. So yeah, I consider myself pretty lucky and just have to grab the chance to try and see and experience an MCZ live in Japan. They came over to Malaysia earlier in 2012 and the show was for free, so this time around its basically paying respect to them for coming over to Malaysia and I'm paying it this time because the show they did over in Malaysia was just worth the money.

Momoiro Clover Z in Malaysia, the start of 2012 hype

This was at Putrajaya Kuala Lumpur, and whee I'm on TV~

I'm an active member of the Malaysian wota community called Xmorfis.info and up until last year, the group's flame has been slowly waning as one by one of the members has jumped ship into the korean wave. We're a pretty old in group in Malaysia too, some members are even getting married and paying attention to J-idols all together but this year was different. I'd say this year is the year of change and the one that started to re-paint the scenario over here would be none other than Momoiro Clover Z.

When it was first announced that they are coming as part of the Hari Belia Negara (National Youth Day) we all thought it was just a joke but when it was officially announced and the article on Natalie and Tokyohive appeared everyone was more than excited. This was the 1st J-idol to ever perform in Malaysia, it was a pretty historical event for us.

Honestly, I never watched any MCZ concert prior to that live, I love Akari and when she graduated my interest in the group turned a bit sour until Roudou Sanka came along. Being there at the live was just amazing. While I am aware of the very different situation of idol live (well Idoling!!! and TGS audience would be pretty mild when it comes to their live) this was the first time I'm in an idol live with very active audience and with me right there at the very front of the railings. It was just so wild, all the chantings still echoes in my mind even until today. This would've never been possible if the Japanese mononofu didn't come over. The energy behind the show that day was just something that I never experienced before. When I was at Shimokita FM idol festival in 2010 the audience was pretty crazy too but I was not in the middle of that crowd so it was kind of different.

While the show was all fun and good, the more important part of the show to me is the gathering of almost all Xmorfis members. Right after the show, a lot of them has started to hop over to the J-wave or at the very least starts to follow J-idol again. Out of a sudden the group has a new faction appearing, the marenofu (Malaysia mononofu). Some non idol fans were also converted into one on that day. The day MCZ came to Malaysia was definitely the day a lot of things started to change, we're all very grateful for it.

This episode is kinda too random, a bit hard to translate (wahaha take that for underestimating other TVshows) so there might be errors here and there I guess. But that's about it for MCZ for now, going to head back to Idoling!!!~

Momoiro Clover - Shabekuri 007 2011~

Soft Sub
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3

My current PC is basically dead for now... Goes along with many files which I owned.. Oh well... Got on this temporary PC during this 2 weeks holiday and decided to sub MomoKuro's on Shabekuri 007 and it was such a news to me... subbing other variety shows is much easier than subbing Idoling!!! =_=. I guess subbing Idoling!!! made other shows feels much easier. hahaha.

edit : ouch just saw a huge mistake in translation =_=. A-rin's introduction mention about being brown eyed. missed that completely OTL

Momoiro Clover Z - Roudou Sanka

Are you feeling down with work? Do you feel like a slave to your boss? Do you think that it is killing you? Don't worry! MomoKuro Z totally understands you! So go ahead blast off this song and get the stress blown away XD

damn this PV is spot on funny and entertaining.

Momoiro Clover Z new single

I'm pretty depressed lately because my internet has been really screwing up lately. I still haven't got my 799 and 800 episode in my PC yet. It feels so bad but when I was surfing around I found something to lighten the mood up

I mean like... what? A salary man cosplay? Using the tie as colour coding? That's pretty brilliant. Was laughing pretty hard when I saw this.

A friend of mine pass me this youtube link, and wow it totally blew me away. Apart from the obvious PASSPO members in the show, we have Kikkawa Yuu and Hayami Akari too! Judging from the trailer this might just be some simple JK story just like Swing Girls but with such lineup of idols I definitely would not want to miss this one.

I'm just wondering the lack of Momoiro Clover, since cheerleading is like their 1st nature already. but I guess its about the age factor.

Looking forward to this
