Long time no see

Yeah I know I have gone M.I.A. for a long time... more like months really.
I was in a really awful funk but I have recover in a 99.9% to my prior self and I think (and really hope) I'll be posting more often than before...

I know I have promised this before but I think this tiem i'll stick to my promise.

So let's go down to business, it has been very eventfull since I left:

(The following list of events shall be according to my value scale of what is important so you have been warned.)

* Graduation Time: Kame and JunLin leave MM.
I have been dreading this since the last graduation... yep, you have guessed, Miracle-chan's Graduation (which was a very memorable graduation, with lots of tears and lots of feelings). I know I may not LOVE her but I RESPECT her work...

Any ways. Kame's reasons are by most her health. I have known for some time that she has this skin condition and that by the first summer concert without the OG's she had it under control... Well, it seems like it was not so true. Current pictures show me the opposite and if it is for the best... then, so be it. I will really miss my erien... She will be graduating not only MM but the entire project ;____;

But then, not only happy to graduate her, UFA/Tsunku decided to graduate JunJun and Lin Lin. My first reaction was WTF!!!! and then I almost cry... I haven't felt like crying per se because like or not they are destined to leave the group at some point.... but not this SOON and not this FAST.

If it was for me, they would have lasted at least, tow more years, make the group bigger, call an audition I DON'T CARE... but are NOT supposed to leave. They were told their services were not required any longer and their plans are to return to they country... I know by someone's blog that according to some surveys made, japanese fans were not happy about the entering of the foreign members to MM and the like (and other really interesting results)... well I guess they may be happy about this decision ;___;

Anyway, now thinking with a more mercantilist and materialistic mind, this smells like UFA - ASIA Branch. Beacuse really Tsunku had his expansion dream, we already have Big Missy, Ice Creamusume and the Korean girl (whom I don't remember her name at ALL... and a potential thread considering the upcoming MM Audition) but what they lack is an entity to unite them and with JunJun and Linlin returning and continuing their career over there... It is really EASY to connect the dots here.

They are letting go (AGAIN) the personalities in MM... THEY deserve better than THAT, they three of them.

* 9 Gen Audition
Yeap, almost every single graduation came with a New generation Audition Announcement. I make it sound like the Antichrist is coming but it is not really that way XD... at least not until the results are known.

A curious fact: Haro Pro Egg will be able to audition.

Here is the translated Tsunku message (translation by Nouciel):


I, Tsunku, who’s done a lot of research in BBS’s (public forums/places of opinions) like Serend and Twitter, will make a comment public here.

The frequently/often asked question,
“Can current Eggs participate in the audition for the 9th generation Morning Musume members?”
will get an answer.

The persons who’re currently on Hello Pro Eggs, who are between 10 years and 17 years old, and have the desire to participate, can do so.
If it’s the case, the persons who didn’t sent the application papers, will still participate when the second part of the judging/examination process starts.


Now those that do not qualify are: Aoki Erina, Tanaka Anri, Sengoku Minami, Kikkawa Yuu, Furukawa Konatsu, and Hirano Tomomi.

Audition equals not only New MM member but also new soloist/group. Now, here comes the hardest part: sit and wait for the results.


* Melon Kinenbi's Saitou Hitomi Marriage.
This was unexpected and a really nice suprise. Most of the OG currently have projects on their own. Some have changed agencies, others have plays (Biyuuden's Miyoshi Erika, for example), other groups (H&A, for example), others continue with their solo careers (Nacchi, for example), others just disappear (Biyuuden's Okada Yui-please correct me if I am wrong on this one) and others get married.

Hitomi is married to a (What a Surprise!) comedian, Hachimitsu Jiro from the comedy duo Tokyo Dynamite... really what is with these girls and comedians? First Miki and now Hitomi. Anyways, I found little translation from what really went down with them and their decision to get married:

HIS P.O.V XDDD
I asked her, “What are you going to do once you’ve split up?”
She said, “Go back to Niigata.”
I said, “I’ll take care of you for the rest of our lives. Don’t go back to Niigata,” and gave her a ring.


SOOOOO F******CKING ROMANTIC *o*

Eventhough the guy is known for dating AV actresses, he is a fan after all (he went to most of her concerts while in Melon). Hitomi is lucky THAT way... If only Yuu-chan (Nakazawa Yuuko) was to get married and reproduce sooner ;____;


* Mari Yaguchi (27) is in a relationship with actor Masaya Nakamura (24)
She is my perfect 1.50 m and I was waiting for this to happen.

She left MM for a man, that after the scandal arouse, he left her high and dry... And now she is dating someone younger, good looking and really nice in all aspects. He is part of the D-Boys (Watanabe Entretainment: http://www.d-boys.com/index.php) and eventhough he is practically new to showbiz, I think she will be a good influence in his future career.

What is really nice about this matter is that she made it public, she post it in her blog XD.

Now I know more stuff has happened but I do not currently have the time to sit, read, analyze information and then write, but like I have promised: I will around more often.

See Ya!!!
