Japan trip 2013 : Entry 02: Babymetal LEGEND "1997" SU-METAL聖誕祭

2nd Event day, is Babymetal live day.

So the day started of with meeting Tokosilent at Odaiba to pick up our tickets and goods. Grabbed all my Idoling!!! parker, T-shirts and 2 signed 2014 calendars and I was in cloud nine already~

Just missing one more calendar to complete the Ogipro girls collection

Once all the process of grabbing goods are over, we headed to the Odaiba Teleport Station and rushed to Makuhari Messe. The trip took quiet a while, but when we reached the venue it was still pretty early.

Japan trip 2013 : Entry 01 : Idoling!!! Recording

So I arrived in Japan on the 18th and coincidentally there is an Idoling!!! recording on the 20th so I applied on the official website to gain entry as an audience. At first I thought that it would be pretty impossible to get and I idiotically just applied for the 1st recording session only. On the 19th of December an e-mail came when I was in Akihabara shopping for 2nd hand idol goods in TRIO saying that I can go into the recording on the next day and man was I excited! Since my friend Tokosilent and Hatix wasn't in Japan yet and I was a bit too excited, I just tried to follow the instruction given on the e-mail.

Blog revival : Japan trip 2013. Lives, Chekki and studio recordings!

So last December was the annual Japan trip that I normally take. Despite missing yet another Idoling!!!'s numbering live because I bought the plane ticket way back in June, it has been nothing short of extraordinary this year. Everything was miraculously amazing and despite coming back home to Malaysia as a seriously poor sod but I'm pretty much the happiest I have ever been compared to myself in the whole of 2013 combined.

So I'll be writing separate accounts of events that I have gone through, hoping to be able to pass the excitement that I experienced last month with everyone else.

They said 3rd times a charm, but my 4th Japan trip was a miracle~ <3

Tokyo Girls' Style in Thailand

On the 17th of March, Tokyo Girls' Style was schedule to appear at the J Series Festival and it was announced about 1 month before hand. It didn't take us fans from Malaysia very long to think about it and so  me and my friends decided to buy the ticket to Thailand for it.

Took a real early flight to get to Thailand

Sakura Gakuin - Wonderful Journey

Throughout last January and February I was pretty much bombed by Sakura Gakuin. A friend of mine passed to me their Graduation DVD live and it was more pleasing that I thought it would be. While I did buy their 1st Album before this but due to lack of discussion on Sakura Gakuin and my own lack of visit to torrent sites/info sites that discusses about various idol groups, I had no idea about their PVs and whatsoever. Now I'm a bit more alert since this group just proves to be really interesting and I'm starting to get attached to the members bit by bit.

Now, Wonderful Journey is AWESOME! Not only you get to hear the girls speak in various languages, the lyric and PV is drop dead cute! The scene where Moa+Yui played with the globe killed me billions of time and Raura's prideful look when introduced as a president are a win! It's really back to basic, childish fun. Which is actually really refreshing now because almost everyone is going for that Matured/Stylish image. Just look at Hello Project, I've totally lost for words in regards to H!P now. Even MCZ is going a bit matured now... Sigh.. I don''t want any of them to grow up (lol) Heck even Idoling!!!'s song is slowly going matured by their own standard.

Anyways, I''ve been repeating this PV for like... 50 Hours non-stop? It's a good song with a really good PV.  Hopefully Sakura Gakuin would keep going this way because I don't need all idols group to be all matured and sexy, otherwise I'll run to miniature bears.

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,

End of a Hiatus

It has been a really long time since I last updated this blog. A lot of things has been happening and I'm kind of put on hold for quite some time but I'm going to scrape as much time as possible to write here again. So this is basically me saying "I'm back to write!"
