~Hello 2010....ヾ(＾∇＾)。。。
。。hmm what to post next?
.....a most *cute~* idol♥ of course!! (￣▽￣)
And top center is Koike Yui...with the most expressive and *pretty~* eyes ………(゜∀゜)………。
This gravure feature was actually released on Christmas day for Sabra's cellphone site but it's my first time seeing it in this latest issue. Many publications are now offering off photo~shoots or completely new releases in this manner as the idol♥web revolution continues to grow~! And thinking back to when H!P first began releasing their online only digital photobooks~.....UFI was really onto something weren't they back then as now it's really a means which enable publishers to reach so so many more fans of photo collections~♥ ＾ ＾。
A~h kore mite mite~!
B.L.T. is offering a signed large sized panel (measuring approximately: 20.8 inches X 16.5 inches!) of Koike♥Yui~!!! According to the B.L.T. WEB SHOP sales began on December 1st at 1 pm and will only go onto January 5th till 1 pm...which means that there's only very little over two days left to reserve one~! Unless she's since changed it, her autograph uses the kana "ゆ” which Yuichan makes look like a cute~♥ fish in her signature o(*´∀｀)o゛。
A maximum of 50 panels are said to be made with no more offered afterward....but with the current count at 20 pieces reserved means that this will be even more of a *rare~* signed piece to own~♥! Each will also be serial numbered and the means in which they are distributed is also noted to be of a random order so even if you reserved last, you could still receive serial #1 panel~!!! *kawaii~* ne! o(*´∀｀)o゛♥
And Saitou♥Yua has a signed panel too from B.L.T.!!!! ↓↓↓↓ Her's is so so pretty~*!! They are a bit pricey (・д・`*) but I know they'll be so worth it when they both arrive in February~!!!...here's the links to shop:
Koike♥Yui B.L.T. premium signed panel~
Saitou♥Yua B.L.T. premium signed panel~
...and here's the rest of Koike Yui's feature on Sabra.net~..I think this is really one of the
most *pretty~* photo sets for any idol♥!!...

...I also realized that I forgot to post her previous Sabra gravure in entirety...(._.;)！Here's the rest of her photos~ ＾ ＾。
～可愛い～！！
あっ！カメラで悪いですけど。。。花火を綺麗～＊綺麗～＊～～＊！
(...one of these were taken while I was clumsily slipping of of a rock I was trying to stand on..I think you can guess which one~…(^q^)! ) Sorry for my poor camera ability~...I was really trying though lol~ (*´艸`)！Ｅ～ｈｈ and one sort of looks like a Christmas tree flying though the sky~!! Fireworks sugoi ne~! ＾ ＾
I was just about to type~ and I realized (・д・`*)！！omg! I need to take a nap~* or I may not be awake when the New Year~*~~~* arrives (;´□｀)！！！ちょっと休憩にします、おや♥ちゅ～！( 」´０｀)」Ｚｚｚｚｚｚ．．．(a~h! "Yan Yan" was from Amazon Japan..I need to rest~ (/∇＼*)！)
There's just a few hours more left~ in 2009 and right away I must admit that I cheated here a bit~* (*´艸`)。。in that I've chosen a few things which weren't 2009 releases, it's just that I'm always so late in experiencing things it seems and therefore some of my very favorite♥ memories of 2009~ involved earlier...but only now found out about passions~ ＾ ＾。Like if i watched a movie this year for the very first time...but it was released last year, it may um....will appear here…(^q^)!
I've also always wondered who celebrates the New Year first??..(・c_・;)？and is Hawaii the very last to celebrate~? Is England first to ring in the new year?....I'm so confused!!! (ノロ≦。)！Anyway, just had a *moment* there.....(*´艸`) Now to begin with.....

.....Dear Tsunku~ where's Chisa's shashinshuu? ( ﾟ∀(・－・)
It began about 4 1/2 hours ago today~...here I was thinking okay ー(*￣Ｏ￣)ノ I'll just scan a few photos to *share~* but a funny thing occurred along the way as I ended up with 53 scans instead of just a few...(・д・`*)！！。。it's just that Nakki's "NACKY" shashinshuu is page after page of *adorable*...*energetic~**..and most *playful~*** photos~♥! I just love her smile (￣▽￣) and she has some of the most amusing~ facial expressions at times during her making of DVD~!! A~h! and I just noticed something....Nakki has a similar honest~inner child laugh just like Mano♥eri does~ (*´∀｀*) A laugh without apprehension or walls~....pure~♥ uninhibited (。ーωー。)笑
And perhaps it was best to wait for as long as UFI did in offering Nakki fans her very first solo pb release~ as whereas some members have appeared to be a bit nervous in their solo debut releases albeit very subtle, here Nakki appears completely natural in front of the camera allowing for that endearing giddiness and *charm~* which we love so much to enliven these pages~ (*´∀｀*)♥
Nakajima Saki's "NACKY" shashinshuu can be ordered here at Amazon Japan.
Nakajima Saki's "NACKY" can be ordered here at YesAsia.
It's Nakki's very first time in Hawaii~♥ and it's always so wonderful to see so many familiar places in H!P shashinshuu~ here Nakki has experienced so much of our dear Oahu~♥....from Haleiwa to town o(*´∀｀)o゛ I stopped scanning at 53 pages..but this could have gone on for much longer.....just so many *kawaii~* photos in "NACKY"...enjoy~ っo(*´∀｀)o!
~I love what her backpack says here♥~!!
It is said that more Spam is consumed here than anywhere else in the U.S.?!! (・o・)
…(^q^)!
And just a few captures♥ from the accompanying "making of" DVD~which runs approximately 20 minutes~!...＾ ＾。。
~♥~!!
While this DVD has a bit of higher price tag at 5000￥...I do think that the inclusion of a live band complete with a string quartet in addition to the extensive footage contained within, make this release well worth the interest of any Nacchi fan~ ＾ ＾。The instrumentation accompanying Nacchi onstage includes guitar, keyboards, bass, drums, saxophone, percussion, violin, viola and cello~ and while the string quartet is utilized in only particular arrangements~, their presence is most profound in those performances..even giving "Amasugita kajitsu" an "Eleanor Rigby" type of feel and rhythm~!
Abe Natsumi's "Summer Live Tour 2009 ~Yappari sneaker ga suki!~ Tour Final "aratana chikai" can be ordered here at Cdjapan.
Abe Natsumi's Live Tour 2009 ~Yappari sneaker ga suki!~ Tour Final "aratana chikai" can be ordered here at YesAsia.
While the concert entails a very much even balance between uptempo~ to beloved ballads...the four performances that I've chosen to present here are perhaps more on the intimate side~ with my reasoning mostly being just how captivating Nacchi's vocals are during these song arrangements~...and I'll even go as far as saying that Nacchi here, in this venue, has her most strong and moving vocal performance to date~. "Soyo kaze" opens the concert so I really wanted to feature it here first as it showcases the strings so much...then, "Shousetsu no naka no futari" for it's heartwarming melody~♥, "Iki wo kasanemashou" for it's spice~ of ska & reggae and "Sora LIFE GOES ON" as it's my most favorite♥ Nacchi song♪～ (*´∀｀*)♥ and it's a b~side! ＾ ＾！
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I really wanted to share~* Manoeri's debut album though which arrived recently...but my head hurts ・゜・(ノД`)・゜・。so I can't speak much here....*ippai~* *ippai~* new songs♪ to hear on this album and such such cute ones~♥! The LE also includes a DVD with over 53 minutes of career history footage of Manoeri♥ (*´∀｀*) and addition to her most catchy~♥ previously released songs~, my most favorites♥ "Sekai wa summer party", Hajimete no keiken and an "album version" of her signature song "Manopiano"...E~h?!! there's also Santa~san♥?! o(*´∀｀)o゛
There's also a "good~night" song too~ so adorable~♥! I'm so sorry that I'm not writing anything proper here (+_+)。。。my nose won't stop running (゜ロ゜ノ)ノ I feel so raw now...(u_u*)
~Kiite ne~ ♥ ＾ ＾。。。the album artwork photography really stylishly cute~* with a sweet touch of maturity...
＾ ＾♥
Hmm..even the towel was unopened~!..also in the box were a postcard, heart♥ keychain, clear photo protector, two 5"x7" UFA photos and very cute* cute~* stickers! I especially love the Santa~Hello!Project logo..*kawaii~* o(*´∀｀)o゛！
I wonder if I spend way too much time in auctions??...(._.;) Maybe I need help (*´艸`)。。。
Winning Miss Magazine as well as 2009's Nitellegenic has pushed this already popular idol♥ into an even larger spotlight~* as she's already released quite a few image DVDs, shashinshuu as well as a calendar for 2010~.
Just below is a short little clip~ of Yuachan♥ playing reporter and her getting Yuichan to give the camera a most cute~* charm♥moment o(*´∀｀)o゛and even after crying so much (;´□｀) her eyes~* are still so dazzling!
Sugawara Sayuri follows in the footsteps of Faye Wong, Shiratori Emiko, Aoki Mayuko and Angela Aki in laying her vocals to such a beautifully written song which swishes~* in rich and alluring orchestrations and while the Japanese release is just over a week old in its release, the included pv~ with her first press edition provides visuals aplenty to whet the appetite of those earnestly awaiting FFXIII's release in international markets. The first pressing also include a mini FFXIII sticker (photographed to the left)~.
Sugawara Sayuri's "Kimi ga iru kara" LE w/DVD single can be ordered here at Cdjapan.
Sugawara Sayuri's "Kimi ga iru kara" LE w/DVD single can be ordered here at YesAsia.
Sugawara Sayuri's "Kimi ga iru kara" LE w/DVD single can be ordered here at HMV Japan.
The accompanying visuals...the CGs...even in~game screen play all work harmoniously together in the music clip which is more of a representation of the game itself as the theme song "Kimi ga iru kara" runs lightly in the background throughout under the narration of the sights and sounds of what looks to be another amazing FF chapter in RPG heaven~♥.
The second "coupling" with track was such a sweet♥ surprise as it's an absolutely *pretty~* Christmas song~!! I now wish I had received this single just a bit earlier.....although I will be listening to Christmas music♪ at least into the first week of the New Year~*. Shhhh....it's a *secret* ( ﾟ∀(・－・)！
