Michishige Sayumi’s 20th Birthday

Hello! Once again – the time has come to celebrate yet another birthday. Today(that is tomorrow by my local time, but today by Japanese time) Michishige Sayumi turns 20! As you may know – 20 is the age of majority in Japan, thus when one reaches his 20-ies he\she is considered to be a full member of society, with all the rights and responsibilities applied.

So I wish Sayumi to overcome the new difficulties which may arise, I wish her good health, happiness and success.

Happy Birthday Sayumi-chan!

お誕生日おめでとう、さゆみちゃん!

Thanks for your time.

 

Good bye Kanna, and Good Luck

Hello! This post will be really sad, as today(well technically yesterday if you count Japanese Time Zone) Hello-Project official site has announced, that Arihara Kanna decided to come back to normal girl’s life and thus she leaves ℃-ute and Hello!Project as well – without any Graduation Concert or anything like this.

As you may know – since February she was absent from all the ℃-ute activities, due to bunion deformity. I think many fans went out to Wikipedia or any other encyclopedia to look this up(or someone already knew what was this – I know I didn’t) and they could see that the operation required to fix this is not very difficult and doesn’t give any further consequences as well as the rehab time is pretty short. But since February up until now – Kanna didn’t appear. We all waited, some of us lost hope of her ever returning. But as of today, all our hopes fell down, shot by the official statement – Kanna will be no more.

I really have mixed feelings about this. Yes, I will miss Kanna in ℃-ute, I will really miss her voice, her  character. And I think that ℃-ute lost a great member. But if that’s really what Kanna wants, they who am I to make her change her mind(let’s pretend that we could) – I completely understand her wish to be just normal. Because however you think it’s cool – idol life is really cruel, full of sad moments and unpleasant surprises. After all – it’s a full-scale and really hard work. So I understand why one could wish to just stop it all at once and be normal human being, with human being’s problems and happy moments.

So how ever I would miss Kanna – I want – from the very depth of my heart – wish her luck with her normal life, I wish her to be happy as she probably would be in her normal life and I hope that this is what she really wanted.

I don’t want to mention any rumours that circled around back there, when one of the magazines published Kanna’s photos with a boy(which being as a H!P member is not permitted) – which sparkled up again(if they ever stopped). I just don’t want to add fuel to this rumour fire. Whatever the rumours are – Kanna now has a right to do what she wants and to be with whomever she wants.

Thanks for what you have been for us Kanna. Good bye  and Good Luck!

 

Sudou Maasa’s 17th Birthday

Hello! Somehow I missed that out… I hope Maasa’s fans will forgive me, as well as Maasa. Anyways – I congratulate her with her 17th birthday, I wish her good health, happiness and success!

Happy 17th birthday Maasa-chan!!!

お誕生日おめでとうまあさちゃん!!!

Thanks for your time.

 

Okai Chisato’s 15th birthday!

Hello! It’s 21st in Japan, which means that we have yet another beautiful H!P girl to congratulate with her birthday! Today(21st of June) Okai Chisato turns 15.

I congratulate  her with her birthday, I wish this day to be the brightest and happiest of them all. I wish her lots of presents, lots of fun and happiness.

And I’ve made some avatars out of usual official H!P pictures. There’s 15 of them – just as much as how old is Chisato. They’re pretty simplistic, but I hope you will like them. You can use them however you like, just remember to credit me if you do use them.

But before that – just an uber-cute(imho) Chisato picture.

Happy 15th birthday Chisato-chan!!!

お誕生日おめでとうちさとちゃん!!!

And as promised – a gallery with avatars. All in 200*200 resolution – so you probably would have to resize them for some forums.

P.s. Thanks go to people who uploaded those pictures in the first place and to people who gathered them at H!O and JPH!P.

Thanks for your time.

 

Otona na Kanna(Kanna’s 16th Birthday picspam)

Hello! Yes, I know that actually Kanna’s birthday is not on 14th of July, but on 15th of July. But since she was born in Japan, and time is running faster in Japan than it does here(just a joke – it’s mere time zone differences, no magic involved). Anyhow, it’s 15th of July in Japan already, so I congratulate Kanna with her 16th birthday!!!!!

I wish her to be happy on her birthday day and have lots of fun with her friends and relatives. And I wish nothing to make her frown and be angry. I wish her problems to go away, I wish her to come back to ℃-ute effortlessly and I wish her to be always as cheerful as she always is.

And as I promised in the previous post – this will be the last picspam post, its theme is grown-up Kanna. Even though she’s not a full grown-up at all(only 16 and that’s 4 more years until officially becoming an adult in Japan), but she has come a long way, gradually becoming more experienced performer and beautiful girl. I hope you will enjoy this final picspam gallery as much as I enjoyed picking pictures for it.

お誕生日おめでとう、かんなちゃん！

Happy birthday, Kanna-chan!

P.s. Thanks go to people who uploaded these pictures in the first place and who gathered them to Hello!Online’s picture board.

P.p.s. Tomorrow I think I’ll do another post here and congratulate Kanna with her birthday by my time zone.

Thanks for your time.

 

Kodomo na Kanna(Pre-birthday picspam 3)

Hello! This is the third picspam gallery post. Since this post is last but one, I’ve decided to make the last two galleries(that is today and tomorrow, since I’ll be congratulating Kanna by Japanese time – which means that she will have her birthday while it will be still the previous day here) a somewhat comparison galleries. And I’ve decided to compare Kanna’s ‘then’ and ‘now’.

And so this gallery will contain Kanna’s childhood time pictures. Enjoy.

0 Days 18 Hours 19 Minutes left till Kanna’s birthday.

That’s it – tomorrow’s post will be birthday post(also with picspam gallery).

P.s. Thanks go to people who uploaded these pictures in the first place and who gathered them to Hello!Online’s picture board.

Thanks for your time.

 

Kanna no Egao to Waraigao(Pre-birthday picspam 2)

Hello! It’s been raining whole day today – and what else can brighten one’s day than cute Kanna smile and laugh. And so the theme of this gallery is Kanna’s smiling and laughing face. There’s lots and lots of such pictures – so it was a tough choice, but I hope you will like it. Enjoy.

1 Day 18 Hours 5 Minutes left till Kanna’s birthday.

P.s. As in previous post – thanks go to the uploaders who uploaded these pictures in the first place, and to people from JPH!P forum, who gathered these pictures together.

Thanks for your time.

 

Kanna in red(Pre-birthday picspam 1)

Hello! According to the H!P Birthday Countdown site – only 2 Days 18 Hours 48 Minutes. Left until Kanna’s birthday. And I don’t care if she’s not with ℃-ute at the moment.

In order to remind people(if that’s really needed to be done…) how cute she is I’m making four picspam posts each day four days in a row(with last post being the birthday post). Each of these four posts will contain themed up picture gallery. This is the first post and as the name suggests – this will contain Kanna wearing different red clothes, including Red Cutie-ranger.

All the credits and thanks go to whomever uploaded these pictures in the first place and to people from JPH!P, who gathered them together in C-ute picture thread. I just gathered them up here.

And so, without any further delay – I present you Kanna in red gallery. Enjoy.

Of course that’s not all Kanna in red pictures, but that’s my own personal favorites and I hope you’ll like them.

Oh and as a post scriptum – KANNA COME BACK!!!!!!!! RETURN KANNA TO ℃-UTE!!!!!!!

Ahem…

Thanks for your time.

 

Chisato mic problem, or how funny some non-official pictures are…

Hello! I know I didn’t post here for a while, but like I said I’m busy with exams(which are a pain in the *ss of a kind, but that’s another story). But I was able to enlarge my ℃-ute picture collection(since I’m getting ready for a thing I want to do for Kanna’s birthday, if everything goes fine) and I was continuing to enlarging it today too, and I stumbled upon some non-official pictures from one of the concerts(by the looks of it – it’s from Nakayoshi Battle Concert which was held last year). Since these pictures are made by fans, there’s no one to “control” the quality of them, so sometimes they turn out to be rather funny, capturing some weird motions. And so these pictures I found sparkled a some-kind of an imagination and I made up a funny mini-story out of it.

So, here goes.

Chisato microphone troubles.

She was dancing and singing as usual, and then…

Suddenly…

Her mic stopped working…

She checked it, but it didn’t work…

She smiled to her fans. “Yabai, dou shiyou…” – she thought.

“My mic’s not working.” – she gestured to the sound-engineer with a frown.

Sound-engineer suddenly noticed her gesture and – because it was that sudden – he turned the volume all the way up,  while Chisato was testing it again…

Ear-popping-loud-Chisato-scream: “It doesn’t work!!!!”

Maimi&Miyabi “Anoooo….”

Chisato: “Yay!” – she said. “Just you wait sound engineer…” – she thought.

The End.

この作品はフィクションです。(This is pure fiction).

And that’s it – even though it’s pure fiction – you wouldn’t have thought this could happen really – right? – but sometimes I do notice a somewhat inactivity of sound engineers. Maybe I’m terribly wrong and they do their best, if so – I apologize. But sometimes volume of the music is too high compared to the vocal volumes, or vice versa. Maybe it’s just me… Anyways – that’s how funny un-official pictures sometimes are.

Thanks go to Afro_Stud from JPH!P forum, who uploaded the pictures.

P.s. All the pictures are actually bigger, so you could just click and see(or if you want even bigger – go to JPH!P forum and find them there).

Thanks for your time.

 

Umeda Erika’s 18th Birthday

Hello! Yet another birthday has come. This time it’s Umeda Erika’s 18th birthday. It’s great to see how the girls from ℃-ute and Berryz Koubou slowly but steadily grow up physically as well as experience-wise. From the very beginning until now Hello!Pro Kids have come a long way, faced lots of difficulties and learned a lot and even though they all still have lots more to learn and to experience, they are already well experienced idols.

Erika is not an exception. I’d like to congratulate her with her 18th birthday. I wish her to be healthy, happy and I wish her good luck with what she’s doing. I wish nothing could let her down and I wish her to have a very happy birthday!

お誕生日お目出度うえりかちゃん。

Otanjoubi Omedetou Erika-chan.

Thanks for your time.
