What, you mean stuff like the Daaishi Feeling?

Well, I guess it’d be something similar to that. I mean things about them that you feel like other fans haven’t noticed, but that’s something you personally can’t help but really like about them.

Yamaki-san’s way of fooling around.

The smallness of Asakura Kiki-chan’s face.

It really is a face so tiny, you don’t really realize it until you stop and look at it for a while. It’s at a level where you literally just don’t see faces as tiny as that anywhere else.

The tiny bit of the flesh inside Yanagawa’s mouth that becomes visible when she laughs.

That’s funny for some reason.

The large size of Kaga-chan’s hands as well as the length of her arms.

This. She should emphasize the largeness of her hands like Michael Jackson did with those white gloves of his.

Kassaa and how she never listens to what people around her are talking about.

This subtle charm about her is something everyone is already aware of.

Akane-chin’s pretty fingertips (and fingers in general).

They’re so long, straight, and pretty, I always find myself looking at them.

There’s something lovable about the modesty of Murota when she’s trying to act all mature.

31: 名無し募集中。。。 2017/03/31(金) 22:18:55.52 0.net
Morito-chan’s strong-willedness.
Plus, the way her nose becomes inflated when she gets angry.

I only like Iikubo-san when she’s crossing her eyes.

I like Ayacho’s lips when they’re just slightly open.

Kasahara’s face in-profile is cute.

Kasahara’s face in-profile and from an angle:

47: 名無し募集中。。。 2017/03/31(金) 22:38:57.08 O.net
The way Kanatomo casually puckers her lips.

Ah! Someone else has realized this about her as well!

So someone out there was enjoying this about her too, huh. (laughs)

Momochi when she’s not fooling around.

There really are moments when her expression seriously turns into that of a man.

I collected these pictures of Reirei at SATOYAMA:

She was apparently feeling sulky because the customers were all buying from members like Hama-chan and not her.

Funaki’s dancing.
There’s just this indescribable Funaki Feeling about it.

The way Ogata-san takes care of her appearance.

She hardly ever wears clothes that would reveal her chest.

Rinapuu from this angle… YES!!
I love that gentle curve of her cheek and how it swells a little near the bottom.

Maimai’s stiff dancing.

Kishimon’s love of Tsubaki. Even when they’re taking pictures with everyone and all the other members are doing peace signs, she always does the Tsubaki Factory pose.

Haa-chin with black-rimmed glasses.

It makes it easy to like her how she never wears super expensive glasses or watches or stuff like that. She’s great for people who like reasonably priced things.

The ways Takebou sits down.

1. カラフル名無しさん 2017年04月01日 16:49 ID:MgL3PJHL0
Eripon’s 100% natural smile is so cute.
The only other member who has a similar smile is Gaki-san.

2. カラフル名無しさん 2017年04月01日 18:58 ID:X96iac7.0
The way Fuku-chan’s eyes are a completely different size from one another.

3. カラフル名無しさん 2017年04月01日 21:29 ID:h49tdDtc0
Daaishi’s lack of confidence when she’s in recording.
No wonder she makes Fuku-chan go “Ayumi-chan is so cuuuuute!“

Do you like it when it’s just slightly poking out from the side?

When she has it on full display on purpose?

Or when she’s just displaying it unconsciously?

Ayacho’s make-up corner video was beautiful to watch.
She was so beautiful, there really was no point in her getting her make-up done.

I like the clothes Maria wears. Is it just me? I never venture into the Musume threads or stuff so I’m clueless…

There are some wota who pay attention to the clothes they wear in private. Normally girls would stop wearing one-piece dresses like this by the time they enter junior high school…

There’s also a clear difference between the clothes she chooses herself versus clothes bought by her mom.

103: 名無し募集中。。。 2017/04/01(土) 03:11:18.25 0.net

Maria does have a bit of a crazy fashion sense. In a way, she might be the only H!P member who truly enjoys acting cutesy. They’ve had lots of cutesy characters throughout the years, but they’ve all worn simple black clothes and stuff when they were in private.

The way married OG members’ fingers change from the fingers of a young girl to the fingers of a mom. They evolve into the fingers of someone who does lots of kitchen work.

99: 名無し募集中。。。 2017/04/01(土) 02:55:13.97 0.net

Right. They gradually become thicker as the years go by. Someone needs to make a thread where we can post pictures and track the evolution of their fingers so we can figure out exactly how much housework they do.

Hama-chan’s facial expressions like this.
What the heck kind of an expression is this supposed to be?

3. ℃-uteな名無しさん 2017年04月01日 02:33　id：LQDKsX700
The way Take-chan dances while lip-syncing to lines that don’t belong to her — she smacks her lips like a duck. It’s so damn cute!

10. ℃-uteな名無しさん 2017年04月01日 11:35　id：npSOy0fK0
I get this. Seeing this convinced me that Take-chan is a girl after all.

18. ℃-uteな名無しさん 2017年04月02日 15:27　id：Gi2V1Did0
※10
She’s definitely a girl as of late no matter how you look at it. As someone who’s watched over her from way back, seeing her boyishness gradually fade away feels both sad and deeply moving at the same time.

2. ℃-uteな名無しさん 2017年04月01日 02:22　id：qZ4b0GBv0
Tagucchi’s waist.
Reirei’s boyishness.
Aarii’s sociable personality.
Kassaa’s tendency to be completely absorbed in doing things.
Murotan’s simplemindedness.

12. ℃-uteな名無しさん 2017年04月01日 12:58　id：I4ZfenhZ0
The way Ayacho opens her mouth all wide like “waaah!”

13. ℃-uteな名無しさん 2017年04月01日 15:15　id：bN.coUl90

Like when she was told how she’s become sexier as of late?

If you mean when Miyabi-chan told her that on Girls Night Out, then yes. I’m amazed someone knew what I was talking about through my shoddy explanation…

9. ℃-uteな名無しさん 2017年04月01日 10:27　id：U8e0NsJG0
Kananan’s shoulder blades. They make me jealous. They’re so smooth and pretty! I was staring at them all through “Mystery Night!”

I’m the only person who’s noticed the subtle charm of Kaedy when she acts cutesy and ends up looking vaguely like a male transvestite.

Henkka: I like how Mano used to constantly talk about Finland.

I like Junjun and Linlin’s height difference.

I like how the feeling of disgust was always so clearly visible on Mikitty’s face.

I like Megu’s dimples.

But I don’t like the shit-eating grin on this guy’s fucking face.

  4. If H!P would get rid of Ikibo Haruna and Kaga Kaede, all would be perfect. Haruna was too old to even be in H!P when she started and Kaede is a smart ass.

    • ????? She was 17 when she joined.. Their were at least 3 other members who were over 18 when they joined as far as i know of which include JunJun, Mikitty, and Nakazawa Yuko who was 24 at the time the group was created… And that just Morning Musume members, H!P as a whole has had quite a few adults at debut

  5. does anyone else go crazy about nakky’s shoulders in the jinsei wa step dance? the way the off-the-shoulder sleeves bounce up and down………….there’s a lot of beautiful and sexy things about that video but i always end up just staring at nakky the whole time ;__;

    Reply

  7. That last comment about maple. No, you’re not the only one.
    She looks like a boy from many angles, even her body build. Plus she doesn’t need to act boyish like Duu to look like it. Maaaaan, she make me confused XD

    Reply

  8. OMG the Fuku-chan eyes thing yes! I thought nobody would ever point that out…I feel like the smaller one gets even smaller sometimes when she smiles, too. Fuku-chan is just too cuuuuute~!
    On a related note, the way Fuku-chan seems to zone out and stretch her eyes during talk shows. She did it a lot in that recent one with Yaguchi lol
    About Maria, how she seems to love this one black-and-white striped dress with a red bow. She wore it in a pic from Sayumi’s comeback and in a random pic with her and Nonaka from October, and during hello station 167, to name a few.
    Also in regards to Maria, she’s easily the tallest member now but no one else seems to have noticed…? (You can clearly see this in a video where they’re all in their socks; it’s from their recent soba-eating competition)

  9. Manakan!!!!!!! I miss her soooooo much… Why wont she come back to us

    Henkka, i always loved Megu’s dimples too, by far my favorite of the KIDS ever

    1) Maa-chan’s subtle changes to the choreography… Still matching the group but different enough to stand out a bit
    2)How cute Captain Saki is when shes getting teased
    3)Oda lurking in the background of behind the scenes videos until a member notices and calls her over
    4)Tsuji being jealous of the other shuffle groups when she was stuck with the boring older members
    5)Kamei at times completely not paying attention to anything around her until she is called upon by surprise
    6)Gaki’s baka character completely disappearing over time… She was an idiot when she 1st debuted for a few years then somehow she became one of the smarter members later on

    Reply

    • Yep. I’ve always had this weird liking to Megu. I don’t even know why. I became a fan of H!P in early 2007, literally just after she’d graduated, so I wasn’t even a fan when she was still active. And yet… I don’t know. I guess she just has one of those faces.

      It was so good to hear “Yuki ga Chirari” though — who’d have thought that we’d ever get to hear her again in a “new” recording?

      Reply

  10. -I adore how Duu makes a point to lock eyes with people at lives and really involve them in the song.
    -I like how Hirose Ayaka has intimidatingly cool expressions.
    -I appreciate how Rina-puu gives off an aloof image, but then gave me an”ohisashiburi” a year after first meeting her at an event.
    -A one-off, but the way Tamura Meimei spun, saw Kananan was missing, then looked all worried, during a live performance of Mystery Night, was about the most adorable thing I’d ever seen. It was on a Hello! Station, I think – probably from Sunshine City Ikebukuro. I’d love to find a gif of it.

  11. Kaedy bounciness on the stage. Got to see her in Sagamihara for the first time last week. She darts around the stage like a sika deer, you can’t help but following her around. I really had to make an effort to pay some attention to the other members.

  13. – When Maa-chan joined Morning Musume she was always so nervous, that her microphone switched hands almost every second…
    – Her fingers are never straight when she does the peace sign…
    – When she laughs hard she’ll always sit/fall down, no matter where she is…
    – She listens carefully but it always seems that she is thinking of something else… And when she responds it will most likely be a metaphor or a pun… Sometimes she even changes the subject without a warning…
    – Only when the subject is music production she is very serious and won’t fool around…
    – She never brags about her skills and is embarrassed, when someone praises her…

    There is even more, so… I guess I’m obsessed with this girl… And I don’t get, why there was noone else thinking of her in the original post because Masaki is a mystery – even to a lot of her fans…

      I like this expression on Hama-chan.

  14. I love all Risako’s expressions in early Berryz music videos. It’s funny, because she was so small and cute, yet she had this worried/angry look that really made me fall for her.
    I also love how Ogawa Saki was spontaneous. In Otona ni Narutte Muzukashii you can catch her scratching her nose and not looking at the camera, hahaha. She was the perfect “girl next door”.
    And I really loved the way Kago would move her head in order to get her bangs “out of the way”. It was really “womanly”, while she was so young and so small. Kago is my first oshi ever, I actually loved everything about her.

    Thanks for the translation!

  15. When nacky gets a line to herself her eyes glisten. I.e. bagel ham and cheese at the live compass tour

  18. The way Fuku-chan sometimes shakes her head slightly when she makes a cute expression for the camera.

  20. Fuku Chan’s eyes! The first time I noticed it, I thought she was just nervous but after a while I got, that one of her eyes is just smaller.

    Michishige’s hooded eye, which is barely noticable thank’s to her good make up.

    The uneven face of Shimizu Saki.

    When Suzuki Kanon contracted her chin muscles together so that it sometimes made weird creases and she had this “not bad” expression.

  21. Iikubo’s fingers. Watch when she was doing an impression of a stag beetle, and then in the dvd magazine when MM was in a school. She has gorgeous fingers.
