3rd Post

Hye Again.. i Know i post something so early in the morning.. not having a sleep is my habit.

Now, i like to post my opinions about the current Berryz Koubou.

What happened to Berryz Koubou recently? Announcements to the Budoukan.. and today is the 4th day sales for their 32nd Single, Golden Chinatown/ Sayonara Usotsuki na Watashi. Have you watch the PV? well, i never liked GC, but i liked SUW. even though the PV is obviously cheap, and the baggy outfit are ugly, the song are good, first time in a while that i liked a Berryz songs, (bcoz i lower my preferences, that's why :))

Well, thats not what i wanted to talk about. its about Tsunku. Again, Tsunku.

I kind of disappointed with whatever Berryz got recently. They used to get better things before. but the recent single, it made me think that Tsunku is trying to punish them in this sort of ways. I always believed that within Hello Project, Berryz is the most expensive group for the fans. Why? Because it always hard to get a news about them. Then? The girls are not that open. What else? The girls seems not motivated.

Several years ago, C-ute was on a slump. With one after another miss of members, they found trouble to get back to the right path. However, the girls try hard to save themselves. Nakki changed. Chisa offer herself to the youtube, and Maimi and Airi, as always, the jewels of 100th of magazines and several drama. it was as if these two are the only members who were promoted. While Maimai was obviously confuse. cant blame her, because she is the least talented member in C-ute.

However, these days, things turn out. For me, the most stand-out member is Maimai. she's like the true jewel who possess the power to overcome her limit. She have her own charm, and also looked the most natural. Because the other members (other than Chisa maybe) looked like they were "acting" too much to look matured, sexy and pretty. For me, she had overshadowed Suzuki Airi, the so-called "best singer" in Hello Project. (Not that i agree.. i used to agree, but not now. ) not that she sing better, but everything else, Maimai is better.

Well, what has dat to do with Berryz? Nothing really. I just wanted to show, how much Berryz had turn to the old C-ute. They had come to the dead-end, where, all they need is their own power, they need to decide their own future like C-ute did before. The only question is, will they succeed? Tsunku had always criticize their work attitude before. Not just to Chinami, he used to criticized Kumai and Miyabi before. But the Budoukan announcement made everything kind of hectic. After that announcement, Berryz seems like they are ditched by the management. I even notice the amount of shows Momochi got to be on TV has been decreasing. And the turn down of Chinami's twitter account is so annoying.

This is truly Tsunku. He liked it if the girls work hard using their own power, strength and will. That is why he love C-ute and he wanted Berryz to be the same. C-ute only get promoted when they have succeed from their solitary before. And now its Berryz's turn. If they got to sucessfully sustain their name in the public, maybe Berryz would get back what they used to have.

However, Tsunku didnt really left Berryz without a single help. I notice how Chinami get a little bit amount of promotion lately. The dance battle with amateur girls, Thailand solo promotion, Twitter account, going on TV, on radio, and so on. What is the reason behind all this? There is only one thing come out of my mind. To promote a good group, first of all, promote the weakest one, or maybe, stimulate the weakest on the group, who are Chinami. Do you think the other girls would not be jealous with the promotion Chinami got? Captain? she used to question why only chinami was sent to Thailand. And the dance contest, its funny how the small dance unit was called "professional" when chinami is a weak dancer. It was just to stimulate her, to realize her position. That was almost about what maimai get several years ago. Hagiwara mai desu ga nani ka, and Stage play. it was because she is the weakest member.

And then we have Kumai-chan who are too gentle and Maasa, who didnt properly deliver her desire to success in Berryz. It was said that Maasa actually support Berryz from the back, but it was not delivered to the fans to recognize and moved by that.

The rest of the girls have shown their own motivation, desire and will. tough this is just my opinion, i am sorry if i am reading the situation too much. i am just happy to say all of this here. i may be wrong. Not trying to be little-Tsunku, i just wanted to share my favorite group. TQVM :)
