Hello! I found this article on Barks and decided to translate it. It contains nothing new, it’s just some kind of a news-review of H!P Wonderful Hearts winter 2009 concert and of upcoming Tsuji Nozomi’s return. But it’s somewhat interesting to Shimizu Saki and Yajima Maimi fans, because they are quoted here.

And now on to the article.
Popular groups gathered for “Hello!Pro January Public Performance” which already raised its curtains.
Morning Musume, Berryz Koubou, C-ute, Mano Erina and others gathered for Hello!Project’s traditional January performance, which raised its curtains at Tokyo Nakano Sun Plaza, on 2nd of January.
It is titled “Hello!Project 2009 Winter Wonderful Hearts public performance ~Kakumei Gannen~”(Revolution First Year) this time, also such groups as: Buono!, Shugo Chara Egg!, Tsukishima Kirari staring Kusumi Koharu, MilkyWay, selection from Hello!Pro Eggs and others performed at the concert, which includes 26 songs overall and was aprox. 2 hours long.
Performed by all members, Morning Musume song “Resonant Blue” raised the curtains of this live performance, followed by Tsukishima Kirari staring Kusumi Koharu with her new song “Happy☆Happy Sunday~!”(to be released on 4th of February); Morning Musume 38th Single “Naichau Kamo”(to be released on 18th of February); these songs were first introduced in front of all the fans. Furthermore, some experimental shuffle groups were made out of some Hello!Project members, these groups performed some songs on stage. At the next performance, during the intro part of the song, fans let out a loud shout of surprise, when they saw Natsuyaki Miyabi-chan short hair cut, which was, as some fans said, something fresh at this public performance.
Furthermore, we asked Berryz Koubou “Captain” Shimizu Saki concerning this event’s title. “What kind of a revolution do you want to rise in 2009?” “Even though I turned 17, I can’t cook at all, so I want to make it a ~Cooking Revolution.~” – she answered. We gave the same question to C-ute Yajima Maimi “It’s ~Appliance Revolution~. I’m really hopeless when it comes to appliances. Sometimes I don’t even know how to use my own mobile phone, which I always carry around, like when I receive a mail from someone, I see an address and not a name. I know that there’s some settings for this somewhere, but I don’t know where, and when I received “Happy New Year!” mail, and I didn’t know who sent it to me, it was a disaster.” – she told us a very girlish episode.
This public performance will be held until 5th of January in Nakano Sun Plaza and then the same performance is to be held on 18th of January at Osaka Kouseinen kinkaikan(Osaka), and on 25th of January at Chuukyou Daigaku Bunka Shiminkaikan(Aichi). This live tour is entitled “Kakumei Gannen”(Revolution First Year) and we expect that in further on activities in year 2009 Hello!Project’s own revolution will be sped up.
Later this month, on 31st of January and on 1st of February, two days in a row, at Yokohama Arena, yet another concert will be held, titled “Hello!Project 2009 Winter Kettei! Haro☆Puro Award ’09 ~Elder Club Sotsugyou Kinen Special~(Hello!Project 2009 Winter Hello!Pro Award ’09 ~Elder Club Graduation Commemoration Special~) at this concert, as was announced, Tsuji Nozomi will also be officially returning to activity. Because of her marriage and childbirth her activities were suspended, her last appearance before fans in April 2007 at one of the events, and up to this day it will be already 1 year and 9 months of her inactivity.
