Sunday I finally went to the Juice=Juice world tour concert in Dortmund. It was so amazing, I have so much to talk about! Before  As I am from the Netherlands, my brother and I planned to go by train. It would take us about 4 hours to get there, but oh well. We took about two trains in the Netherlands and two in Germany. The trips was actually fine. It didn't feel like a long trip and Germany is just so beautiful. There is so much to see! In Dortmund, it was pretty busy as there also was something with soccer. Our hotel was really close to the station. It was really big and pretty, which made me wonder if we were at the right hotel. It was the right hotel, so we checked in and got our stuff togheter. We were on the top floor and had a few of the building next to us. We could almost see the FZW from our room! We got our stuff and our tickets and went out to eat. Ofcourse we went to McDonalds' and got some delicious chicken wings. Guys, we don't have these in...

Tomorrow Hello!Project will (most likely) announced what they are going to do with their new reorganisation for their 20th anniversary,  A video was uploaded on the Hello!Pro Station channel about this.  Three Kenshuusei will officially be promoted, while three Country Girls members will be moved to other groups as "concurrent" members. My thoughts First I want to talk about my thoughts on this whole matter. I am always for new and exciting ways to keep H!P fresh and dynamic. I absolutely understand that H!P is a company that has to make money.  There are a lot of groups and girls with a lot of potential in H!P right now, but I understand that management wants to keep up the fresh and new act for as long as they possibly can. They are losing a lot of fans due to C-ute and Tsugunaga Momoko graduating, so what to do? The reorganisation is something no-one was expecting. A group becoming a part time thing, girls moving groups and other girls hearing about ...

Everybody must have heared the news concering Country Girls. Here is a short summary: After this years Hello!Pro Summer concert tour, Country Girls will be switching to a new system. Morito Chisaki, Yanagawa Nanami and Funaki Musubu will join another H!P Group, while Yamaki Risa and Ozeki Mai will focus on their studies. Country Girls' will not disband, they will only be active during school breaks and holidays, and release digital singles.  What a news. This actually just means that three girls will get new main activities, while two girls will only be part-time idols. There isn't any info about which group Chii, Yanamin and Musubu will join and if they will stay togheter. At first it seemed as though the girls came with the idea themselfs or that at least Risa and Mai said they wanted to focus on school, but not leave the group. Yet it now seems that management just wants to shake things up and decided that Country Girls will enter this new system. The girls th...

A week ago Buono! disbanded. Gosh, I can not believe Buono! ended. Buono! was a rock-pop idolgroup that released songs for the anime Shugo Chara. The group started in 2007 with Tsugunaga Momoko , Natsuyaki Miyabi and Suzuki Airi . They released 14 singles, 3 albums, 2 mini albums and 2 best of albums.  Buono! is for me and a lot of other fans really special. They introduced us to idol and showed us the world of Hello!Project. Without Buono! I would have never been the fan I am today.  Buono! might have been one of the most stable and succesful units Hello!Pro has ever known. They have been active for 10 years (with some pauses in between) and it might be the only unit who stayed this popular without the members leaving their original groups.  Buono! will always have a special place in my heart. Their songs gave me hope and made me smile during times I couldn't do it myself. I preformed one of their songs at school, eventhough I was scared to do so....

Did you say part 2 of the Hello!Pro Questions? I am ready if you are! Last time we stopped by number 40, so now we will go on until number 80! 41. Who is your favorite Tsubaki Factory member? Niinuma Kisora and Ono Mizuho , closely followed by Ogata Risa . 42. Who is your favorite Hello! Pro Kenshuusei member? Can I just make a list? Because there are a lot of girls I adore. To start with Danbara Ruru and Horie Kizuki, followed by the whole 27th gen. 43. Which member would you like to have as your mother? As in current members? That would be weird, as I am older than most of them. I guess Suzuki Airi of the current members and Kamei Eri or Niigaki Risa of the graduated members. They all seem fun and caring members, so probably great and loving mothers (same goes for Sudo Maasa ). 44. Which member would you like to have as your sister? Yokoyama Reina looks like a sister I would be protecting for dear life, while Kudo Haruka seems like one I ...
