Berryz Mansion 9 Kai review

suddenly felt like I needed a big berryz dose, it all started when I happened across this video

felt very nolstalgic, then I went and watched some of their mv's in full, and made me love their songs again. in particular, I really love the tomodachi wa tomodachi nanda, pv! I think it's one of the best videos, it has a story! and how it went back a forth a bit in time. and also the beautiful beach scene. if you forgot about it, here you goo

and then I went on projecthello.com, to look at all their songs

and I saw that their latest album is out! but I shouldn't be surprised really, since I kiinda stopped following Hello!Pro sadly. but I thought hey ho might as well check out their songs, (I always pray for a miya solo each time). aand then I saw there are some videos! sadly I can only find Miyabi and Risako's ver...but I'm sure the rest are there somewhere. anyway it's for the song...

Succha ka Meccha ka~

Risako Close up

Miyabi Close up

I have to say Risako looks stunning!

these must have been shot a long time ago, with Miya's dark hair.

the song is pretty cute

6.5/10

so I thought might as well check out all the songs

Otokomae

duet with Momoko and Yurina

quite like the instrumental, and I like overall sound

and they're good singers

7/10

Nandakanda de Ii Kanji!

duet with Chinami and Masaa

I just knew this would be a fast and upbeat song, I always think energetic with Chinami xD

I'm happy they have a duet together, they need the chance to sing more, masaa especially

6/10

Koi Itoshiki Kisetsu

I think one of my favourites so far. I like the tune of this song

reminds me of sailor moon a bit...I dunno why

7/10

Be Genki! 

I thought to watch this mv again, since it's been awhile and I haven't watched it much

I like the song itself, esp the chorus

but for the video, even though the rooftop scene looks really pretty. I felt like they coulda done so much more with the pv.

7.5/10

Massugu na Watashi

soo this is the ballad of the album

there's one line where chinami sounds like she's shouting it, lol sounds a bit out of place

I'm wondering, after Risako sings the last line, Massugu ni, whose voice is it doing the adlib? cause it'd make sense if its Risako, but it sounds like Miya...

6/10

Cha Cha Sing

this is just an awesome song, nuff said

8.5/10

Anata Nashi de wa Ikite Yukenai

ahh! lovee this, I think it'd be great if they sang more of their old songs

and this sounds so similar to the original one

(unlike c-ute's weirdly done up ver)

masaa rocks this one

8/10

Momochi Yurushite Nyan Taisou (Yurusanyai Remix)

.....well...

I never really liked remixes anyway

this reminds me on nyan cat

..I just can't rate this one...

did you like the Berryz album?

Totaly Votes: 95

phew it was a pretty close one ne! xD

I enjoyed watching this poll, with the very close competition between Ai and Airi

tbh I'm sad that Ai didn't win this poll

because even though I Airi does have one of the best vocal ranges in H!P I feel Ai can really securely hit those high and low notes

and now that Airi's voice is more mature, it's harder for her to hit the high notes, but don't get me wrong she can sing high well.

but I also think Ai can sing lower than Airi

Momo is 3rd~ and yes she really does have a steady voice, and not to mention can go incredibly high

definitely one of the best in H!P

Miya in 4th^^ Miya does have a good range, but I'd think it's probably more in the high region, as she can really hit the high notes~ 

In 5th it's Risako, well she can certainly sing low! xD but I wouldn't think she has the best range, because she can just about hit the high notes, it's esp shaky in lives xD; and I do wonder why Tsunku loves giving her the high notes, when obvs her voice is like alto. but she has improved her high notes at least

I have to say I'm surprised Maimi's in 6th, if it was me ranking them, Maimi would be a loot lower, her voice is verry low, I don't see her hitting high notes...

Risa is 7th, another low singer, though I'll always remember her high note in Mr Moonlight. her range is pretty good I guess, though I also think as her voice is more mature it's harder for her to hit the high notes. but she'd beat Maimi and maybe Risako for me

Joint 8th is Chisato and Mai xD I don't actually know about them...I dunno if its just cause they don't get much varying notes in their lines, but I don't think their range is that big

and tied in 9th is Yurina and Kanon

but for me Yurina is better than Kanon, and only recently do I see more of Yurina's range, her voice is probably more low than high normally, but then in Heroine ni Narou ka, she sings the last word Heroine~ really well

and Kanon's alright I guess, though I also don't hear much from her

I have to say I'm sad and surprised Captain didn't get any votes

hello, she has one of the largest vocal ranges imo! though her voice itself isn't one of the best she's really underrated here

normally she sings really low, but then if you listen to Koishiteru toki wa Itsumo and the last chorus of Ai no Dangan, you can hear her incredbily high voice

overall I'd say Ai wins for me, I can't actually rank the others specifically though xD

and to make this more interesting, I thought to include some videos

I couldn't find ones that show all their lovely ranges gomen ><

Momo

Ai

Airi

couldn't think of another recentish one xD;

----------------------------------

from now on UsaTEN will have a specific type of poll~~

and this will include alll H!P members (except the new s/mileage members)

cause I think it's more fun with more options

and this way people don't have to be sad that they can't vote for someone who's missing xD

It will be like the H!P Concert polls

I know that I wish I can vote on those (if I could read it xD or go to a concert)

soo I thought I'd bring it heree

there'll be a wide range on questions

so please look forward to them

and also hopefully more people will vote as it's a wider question

and also if there's a question that you want to submit for the poll

then feel free to leave the question in a comment or on the shoutbox

and if I like the question I'll use it^^

thanks for voting everyone!

next time the question is

If you had to choose, who do you think is the most scariest H!P member?

xD vote away
