All for One and One for All	12 (34%)
Busu ni Naranai Tetsugaku	23 (65%)

Votes so far: 35 

 Busu ni Naranai Tetsugaku it is

finally I can remember the name of this song

for me I prefer All for One and One for all

because first the PV is more interesting

I love how they start with 1st gen all the way to H!P Kids

and for each members solo shot they are all doing something different, unlike Busu ni Naranai where they just smile with teeth

and it's not so focused on a few members

more than 3 people got solo lines here

and well I just love old H!P more

maybe I would like Busu ni Naranai more if more people got solos

like Miyabi and Momo xP and Risa should have got one too I think

S/mileage and Mano got nothing as well

but if I had to choose like one voice from each group it'll go like....

Morning Musume - Reina

Berryz Kobo - Miyabi

C-ute - Airi

Mano Erina - Mano

S/mileage - Kanon

because I think they have the best voices in their respective groups

and just well more different shots would have mixed it up a bit, it was all the same really

and with all the group shots, you couldn't even see everyone

thanks for voting though~

next poll is

Who are you favourite new members?
you can choose more than one
and even know 9th gen aren't that new, I thought to add them

please vote^^

Sorry, it's been a while

hope everyone had a nice christmas^^

these are in random orders xD

Kikkawa Yuu

Konna Watashi de Yokkatara

I love the puppet scenes its cute, the editing of PV makes it more interesting, but I don't like the 'white' scenes where she's in the white dress with a beige background, it's really plain, and since the song mentions dance a bit, I think she coulda had a cooler dance

7.5/10

Mano Erina

Glory Days

the pictures are nice, I didn't like the autotune thing at the beginning. the song isn't too bad, but sorry I just don't like her singing voice

6/10

Morning Musume

Pyoko Pyoko Ultra

...I was speechless watching this...

I really don't like their costumes, the worst part are the things they have on their hands, its so awkward

I mean couldn't they have got a better costume designer?

and couldn't they have another (more sensible and appealing) costume as well, like Berryz in Yuke Yuke Monkey Dance

and the song isn't that interesting

the PV looks amateurish, especially the fake blue sky...

this single reallly doesn't sell it for me

and when they're moving their heads left and right...thats more scary than cute to me, especially when you can't see their bodies, looks like they're just a moving head

4.5/10

Hello!Stop

Mano Erina's 1st album is called 'FRIENDS'

2nd album is called 'MORE FRIENDS'

and now 3rd album is called 'MORE FRIENDS OVER'

..........

LOL

can they not think of any better names? I think my suggestion, 'Even More Friends' sounds better than their 3rd album name

the first name is ok

but second and third are just silly

C-ute's 7th album tracklist~

1. Momoiro Sparkling
2. Hitorijime Shitakatta Dake na no ni
3. Ike! Genki-kun (Hagiwara Mai solo)
4. Sekaiichi HAPPY na Onna no ko
5. ZUNTAKA MARCH ~Hitorashiku Ikiyou~
6. Tokai no NEON ga Odoroku Kurai no Utsukushisa ga Hoshii (Okai Chisato solo)
7. Kagayake! Houkago (Nakajima Saki solo)
8. Shiawase no Tochuu
9. Amazuppai Haru ni Sakurasaku (Original Berikyuu Ver.)
10. Seishun Gekijou (C-ute Ver.)

I'm happy that Chisa, Nakki and Mai have solos!

this sounds interesting

hope Berryz give out solos in their new album *cough*Miyabi*cough*

Buono's Hatsukoi Cider will be the ending theme song for Happy MUSIC during January

Yatta! congrats buono! it's a good song

hopefully this gives buono more exposure so they can get more recognition~

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

From RisusaTEN~

DEEP MIND -Buono! PV

Ahhh it's out! Not too long after Hatsukoi Cider~

This is a nice change from Hatsukoi Cider yet at the same time it's pretty similiar too with just the girls singing at the front with the band in the back. I really like the lighting in this one though and the costumes are pretty H!P like but with a flavour of Buono! (Oh no I think I've been watching too much Pokemon Black and White haha..)

I really like this PV even though it's not really anything special from most of videos. I have to say, the girls look exceptionally pretty in this video. That white light that keeps shining kinda annoys me a little but at the same time it gives that emotion of finding that small light in a dark tunnel huh. I always imagine DEEP MIND to be a song about that. I guess I should really go look up the lyrics now ahah.

What do you guys think?

Su-san!?

As Airi fans would know..this is her treasured mascot "Su-san" (Although I swear it was yellow rather than white lol) and some hard core Airi fan made a costume and is dancing to Massara Blue Jeans xD

I personally find this hilarious and I hope Airi sees this!

Sorry this is months old I know xP

anyways to sum it up, I agree with Risa, I don't think anyone would be able out speak her, especially 

as she's now the head of H!P my vote goes to her too

as for Chisato, she is argumentative, however she and Mai are pretty tied I think, so I think Mai should be up here too xD and since 

Mai is one of the younger ones it's pretty impressive..

I can imagine Reina to be good and keeping her corner too xD

a result that surprises me is Maimi, she's so carefree, I can't really imagine her arguing.. and she couldn't

even stand up to her younger group members...I don't think she could yell at someone

Next poll will be different

Which H!P Group song do you prefer?

and if you've forgotten them, here's a reminder

>All for One and One for All<

>Busu ni Naranai Tetsugaku<

Starting with Buono!

Lots of images released

firstly, CD Covers

Regular

Limited

I prefer the regular here

like the brightness

I'm not a fan of the clothes I have to say, mainly the colour, which is sad cause normally Buono has really cool and unique clothes with their individual styles showing...what happened?

Regular 9/10

Limited 7.5/10

Profile

Miyabi why this hairstyle T^T, you look like a boy

but I really like the other two's hair

C-ute

Just a short one

Mai, Nakki and Chisa are going to be in a new stage play with Mai as the star

doesn't she look cool

Play will begin in March

Berryz Kobo

oo I was excited when I heard this

new album! 

Ai no Uta 8

hmm, wonder if that's a hint of a single name?

coming in February

Dream Morning Musume

PV preview for their single Shining Butterfly

woow they look so pretty! Rika esp

I don't like the costumes they were for the dance though

and the dance itself doesn't seem great

but other than that looks like there's a story and good quality

wonder why Ai is there, since it just skipped to that scene it seems random to me

looking forward to this

9/10

Coming in February again, soo many things in feb!

Lastly

Morning Musume

Easter is here!

no of course not

it's Momusu's new single costumes

apparently..

well..who doesn't love chicks? xD

I find it hard to believe it's their next costumes...

cause this is just so ridiculous!

and I thought Buono's was bad...xD;

Hatsukoi Cider -Buono! PV

Yo yo yo! Sorry for another Buono! update...

But ahh! Watch the PV, watch the PV now!!!!

It's so good. It's so simple yet so amazing. At first when I saw the covers, I didn't like the pink outfits at all but it really suits the PV this time with the grey and white background. Well done producers. You did well. 

Anyway the song itself hasn't really stuck to my head yet but I can tell this is gonna be another song I really love too since I'm such a Buono! fanatic. The little cute things the girls did were..so..cute haha and the little signs they made reminded me of that Ting Tings music video... or Perfume since they do stuff like this a lot too.

It's a nice change to see something like this and it's quite sophisticated in my opinion but Buono! have always been in a different league to other H!P groups for me anyway =w=

So what's your guys opinion?

9/TEN

-RisuTEN


omg!!
It shouldn't be out this early!
bad marketing strategy once again


but that aside
I love it!
It's a nice mellow song that couples well with DEEP MIND


and, omg there's more than just close ups!
it's so cuute! love the different shots and effects


the only problem is the costumes, wish they all had shorts on like Momo
and Miyabi's hair is all pulled back like a tomboy
love Airi's hair


the song is nice, really sweet and brilliant voices as usuall


and the great thing is that this will be the opening and ending song for Sayumi and Reina's drama
so will get looads of promotion!!!
and hopefully show others how amazing buono is and gain more fans^^

Mano Erina - Doki Doki Baby

haven't seen Mano's PV in a while

I really like the PV! I always love outdoor ones

or where theres more than just close up and dance shots

even though she was just window shopping, the scenes were really pretty

but what's with the red bow and blue dress? clash!

but I think she looks pretty here, and its nice that they did something else with the hair

I'm not a great fan of the song though

and she's in her twenties ne

I think its babyish giving her these cutesy songs...

I wish they could let her grow more, but I know her fans probably like these type of songs =.=

and I still think her voice needs a lot of improving, since she's a solo singer

if she was in a group it wouldn't matter as much.

7/10 for single

8.5/10 for PV

Kikkawa Yuu - Kon na wastashi de Yokattara

the expressions at the beginning are cute!

tbh I didn't get a great impression from her first single

but here, she shows off her voice a lot more

and the song is interesting

there's not much colour in the PV but I quite like her outfit

in one of the shots it looks like she's in the middle of loads of shower cubicles xD

8/10

I have to say it's very cutesy

but I quite like it

like Ayaka and Meimi's lines at the start, the 'koto yuu' bits are really cute

I like the tune at the beginning up to the 'yeahh~'

the PV has a story which is always nice, and it actually relates to the title

but I didn't think much of the dance, and it seems like their skirts got in the way of their actions too

I prefer this single to Tachiaagaru, but I still think this is a silly single name xD

why do they have to bring up miniskirts in everything? Is it not enough that they wear one all the time?

also I do think there should be more shots of Yuuka, as its her last single sadly.

there voices are still too cutesy for me, but apart from that the score is

8/10

I think there should be a rule that, for members last PV, they should get to be the center!

cause I understand why they might not get lots of lines cause when they leave other people have to cover it, but for the PV it won't matter if they get a bit more screentime. It'll make fans happier too.


Mobekimasu - Busu ni Naranai Tetsugaku
there have been more versions of the pv released
but my fave ver is...

lots of awkward moments lol as they try to get screen time
love miya's wink
8/10
the dance shot is good too

Hello!Stop
Ok for some short news now!

the mother of h!p is getting married!

congrats Nakazawa Yuko!

wish you a happy marriage^^
