3x the Maji

For the release of Morning Musume's 45th single, Maji Desu Ka Ska, promotional posters have been sold.  This surely was a way to create excitement among fans waiting to see what the new look of Morning Musume was going to be.  During one of the tour dates of the Fantasy DX concert, everyone who attended and purchased a copy of the single received one of these posters.  The posters that they got were not your ordinary Maji Desu Ka Ska poster.  They were autographed by one member.  Each poster was distributed at random, and had the autograph of one Momusu member on it.

Soon after, wota's who apparently had multiple posters started selling them online.  When I saw them, I knew I had to get my hands on one of them.

Well...I got my hands on 3 of them. ^_^

Of course, I by all means necissary, I had to pickup an Aika autograph for myself:

After that, I decided to pick up Erina's and Mizuki's, because I knew friends who were willing to buy them off of me if I picked it up for them.

 

These posters are pretty awesome to say the least.  I guess I need to go get a frame for my Aika poster now, and figure out where I should put it, since there isn't much open space on my walls hehe.

Now, it can beautifully match the Aika signed Lullaby Game poster that I bought last time!

Day of Destiny

So, just now, at the Hello Project Winter Kangei Shinsen Matsuri 2011, the new members of the 9th generation of Morning Musume have been announced.

The winners of Morning Musume's 9th generation auditions are:

(scroll down when you're ready)

SAYASHI RIHO:

SUZUKI KANON:

IKUTA ERINA:

FUKUMURA MIZUKI:

So.  Were back to 9 members again I see.  These girls better do Momusu some good.  They look like they have great potential to grow and make me love them.  I was surprised that an Egg was thrown into the group though.  I've never even heard of Fukumura Mizuki before.  Let's see what she's got for us.

Overall, i'm happy with the results.  I'm not being judgmental about the girls yet, because I can only wait and see what happens.  I'm looking forward to it though!

So there you have it.  Our NEW Morning Musume consists of:

Takahashi Ai & Niigaki Risa [5th Gen]

Michishige Sayumi & Tanaka Reina [6th Gen]

Mitsui Aika [8th Gen]

Sayashi Riho, Suzuki Kanon, Itsuka Erina, & Fukumura Mizuki [9th Gen]

There have been some rumors going around that have stirred up some controversy.
I wonder if they're true? So far i've heard:

- Kikkawa Yuu is going to be an H!P soloist.

- Jang Dayeon is joining MM as well

- The new members are replacement members in Tanpopo# and Shin Minimoni

- Tsugunaga Momoko will graduate from Berryz and HP in Summer 2011

- Sayumi Michishige will graduate from Momusu and HP in Summer 2011
- Mitsui Aika gets boo'ed for mentioning that Suzuki Kanon looks like her.

I'm really curious about these.  Especially the last two.  Things are changing way too fast in HP.
