1,000,000☆Smile SUPER☆GiRLS Full PV

The full PV for SUPER☆GiRLS 4th single is finally out! I've been waiting a long time to see it!
Between when I posted the preview and now, the song has completely grown on me and I love it!

But what impressed me the most was my wish came true: In last part of the video  Hikari and Ruka were moved to the front!
I was a bit upset that Ami (who get's way too much attention as it is) and Rina were in the front during the whole dance while the other members were pushed to the back.
 But having Hikari and Rika doing their crazy dance in the front for a short while made me smile! It surprised me, and I hope they keep rotating the members instead of keeping the attention on only one or two people.

This is the best thing that SUPER☆GiRLS have ever released.

Nogizaka46 Guru Guru Curtain PV

Nogizaka46 debut single was broadcast on their weekly TV show earlier .The single is titled “Guru Guru Curtain” and the video features shots of the girls in a classroom and dance performance or what little dance it is. For a group that was labeled as the rival to AKB48 ,i`d expect a more here we are ,were going to beat you type song ,this feels more like the Possible vs. Morning Musume ,just another group that can be built up and then one day when AKB48 ends their replacement is already established.

For all the talk about rivals, Nogizaka46 is starting to look like the cousins of AKB48.

Houkago Princess: White Base

Houkago Princess a group from Ikebukuro ,Tokyo that we have written about in the past ,has this small ,tiny in fact theater in Ikebukuro called White Base .Recently a live concert/graduation was filmed at this theater .HouPri is a good up and coming group .

Their vocals are a little higher pitched then other groups ,but it blends well.
At the end of part two and into part three the group plays some games and in the final part is the member graduation and an outside look at White Base.
If you are wondering who the leader is it`s Nana [center row 1 photo], who is older than her tiny self and voice seems.

The remaining Senbatsu members make up horn, percussion and backing vocals.

They are not all that bad, not ready open up for BABY METAL [Sorry I couldn`t resist that joke].

Seriously this is a fun little group they have put together for their next single. The girls worked very hard and I tip my hat to them as it`s a good job for five months training.

NMB48's Shirogumi Reveals New PV

NMB48's sub-unit, Shirogumi, have released a PV for their single "Doryoku no Shizuku"! The whole message for the PV was "If you seem lonely, keep holding on". Which, in this case, is very useful. This single will be released February 8th, 2012 and will be included to the "Type A and Theater' versions of 'Junjou U-19' which is NMB48's upcoming/newest single.

JKT48 Debut PV Preview

The newest International branch of the 48 family Indonesia`s JKT48 will be releasing shortly their version of the AKB48 single “Heavy Rotation”.

The early preview of the video shows a much different setting and possibly a more pleasing to some 48 fans then the AKB48 version. Their costumes by the way fall right in line with the 48 family style.

From the early preview this group has the makings to do well.

If you like seeing Independent idol groups then you`ll like this show .As for me I could spend all day with the Indie Idols across the country lots of good stuff going on in small venues across the Prefectures .

PS- Afilia Saga East is on the show

Please be sure to view these groups as Indies will be on the 2012 PIH Idol Awards.

CHIMO

As a staff we decided that in 2012 we are going to bring you as many Independent, regional Idol units as possible. As hard as it may seem 90% of all idol groups are Indie groups and soloists . Most  are working outside the major media outlets, while being major stars in their home Prefectures.

With each group the presentation will be different, depending on what they have to offer.

First up is from Oita the idol group CHIMO .CHIMO has been around since 2007 and is considered a Super Idol group in their region. The group has had several members go on to join national idol groups.

For CHIMO the best way to welcome them to PIH is to show them in Concert.
So sit back and take 30 minutes to get to know these hard working well loved idols. Some of their best songs are near the end of the performance as all Indies do with their live sets.

S/mileage “Chotto Matte Kudasai! “ PV

I don`t think I have ever had enjoyed a S/mileage video  as much as this one .New S/mileage hit a homerun with this one a perfect vocal blend that should please all S/mileage fans.
The video features the energetic idols in bright colored dresses, throwing themselves against a glass wall and more .Second gen members look like they have been in the group for years and are growing into wonderful idols and bring a lot of energy and vocal style to the group.

NMB48 Junjou U-19 Short Preview

NMB48 has released a short preview of the dance shot version of their next single PV and this at least for me has the makings of their best single and video.
Definitely looking forward to the full release.

Morning Musume Pyoko Pyoko Ultra! PV

The full video release of Morning Musume`s new single is out. It`s a cute throwback to a past time in Morning Musume history. The vocals are fairly balanced but Reina and Riho are going to be the centers in this new era and Sayu is playing a good size role.

Every one of the generations blend well; and you can`t help but to   smile while watching this video thinking about their future.

The song and PV has this Minimoni and old Morning Musume feel to it that brings back memories of a fun ,big sales time in Morning Musume`s history.

So what do you think everyone about the newest version of Morning Musume? I don`t know if I can take chickens every PV ,but I can live with Musume going a little more Minimoni or bringing back their past at times . After all for those of us who have experienced every day in the 13+ yrs history of the group, it was a time like no other for this franchise with a long running television variety show [7 yrs] and a lot of memories.
With Sayu soon to be leader, I think the fun is only just about to begin for this new younger Morning Musume.



As a side note as I said this has shades of old Morning Musume when they were perfecting the concept of large member groups like the team concept that AKB48 uses.

[If your fans of Risa and Aichan and are still new to Musume [say less than 5 yrs fans] you  may want to see the two in their early years.
