とざまさん @tozamasan
After having been kissed mid-song by suspect Michishige, Sayashi-san ran away to some of the other members, looking embarrassed and like she was going “she kissed me!” Ikuta-san, seeing her reaction, looked at Sayashi with an expression on her face that said “who are you kidding, you loved it!“ #morningmusume14

So she’s finally done it.

Nice.

All the pressure that was building up inside her all that time she was silently working hard at being a good leader… I guess it had to come out sooner or later.

Just something that crossed my mind.

He doesn’t look like he hates it.

3: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/10/30(木) 23:50:57.62 0.net
I’d think it might actually be a pretty fun job.

14: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/10/30(木) 23:59:30.60 0.net
What other work does he do aside from hosting?

4: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/10/30(木) 23:51:19.00 0.net
Road bikes are his main occupation and being overly controlling of his wife is his side business. What am I forgetting?

7: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/10/30(木) 23:56:21.72 0.net
I saw him in a DIY magazine or something like that.

Apparently he’s also a drummer.

@
Katsuta-san’s final MC:

“Usually all of you fans will just do calls like the “oi oi” and stuff, right? But lately you’re all singing more — it’s like you’ve been given more lines. But, um… I know I’m not one to talk, but your singing is off-key. So please go take some voice training lessons.”

2: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/09/05(金) 20:37:48.17 0.net
I don’t think I’ve ever heard of an idol telling her wota to go take voice training lessons. It’s completely unprecedented. This is Bakuwara Revolution.

Are you really okay with that, Rinapuu? I’m going to end up stealing your lines.

8: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/09/05(金) 20:43:12.60 0.net
Hey, she’s kind enough to not just flat out say “shut up and stop singing.“

19: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/09/05(金) 20:53:15.10 0.net
Well said, Baku-san.

By the way, my thing is that whenever I go to an event or concert, at least three people will approach and talk to me. Without exception.

3: 名無しさん@おーぷん 2014/10/15(水)20:28:19 ID:???
Aside from H!P, I listen to classical.

5: 名無しさん@おーぷん 2014/10/15(水)20:32:54 ID:???
I don’t hide my H!P fandom at all. I tell everyone. Some people are disgusted, others don’t mind it at all. It’s actually pretty much 50/50. (laughs)

7: 名無しさん@おーぷん 2014/10/15(水)20:37:27 ID:???
I unashamedly share their new MV’s on Facebook.

12: 名無しさん@おーぷん 2014/10/15(水)20:53:35 ID:???
I have a full head of hair.

141011 RKB Radio “LoVendoЯ no Love-On!” #67, guest: Kikkawa Yuu
(On Marin and Nee-san’s memories of their high school days…)

Nee-san: Like, I didn’t really understand the whole “accompanied peeing,” going into the bathroom together thing.
Reina: “Accompanied peeing“… (laughs)
Okamari: Yeah, it’s like “why can’t you just go by yourself?!”
Reina: That’s funny. I used to do that, too, you know. I mean, toilets are scary!
Okamari: Ahahah.
Marin: Fufufu.
Reina: Don’t misunderstand! It’s not like… it wasn’t like I literally wanted to use the toilet with my friends! It’s not like we went “ready, set, PEE!” (Note: “せーの、シー” (“see no, shii“) in Japanese.) 
(everyone laughs)
Okamari: That’d be taking it too far…
Reina: It wasn’t like that. We’d have the usual conversations and stuff, and then everyone would do their thing. Besides, it’s just fun talking with your friends in places like that.
Kikka: That’s true.
Okamari: Ahh. I see, I see.
Reina: I didn’t understand the girls that would go in while holding hands and stuff, but still, it was fun going with my friends.

Fukuda: “I like watching who my old fans oshihen to after me. If it’s some kenshuusei, I think to myself like, “oh, okay, so you just liked me because I was a little child” and stuff.”

Maro’s scary as hell.

I wish she’d said this at Hello!Con.

21: 名無し募集中。。。 2014/08/28(木) 19:54:19.49 i.net
I still think of Maro as a kind of loli character.

Speaking as someone who oshihen’d to Funakki… I have no defense.
