Mano Erina’s 4th Single

The name of Mano’s 4th Single is Kono Mune no Tokimeki wo(この胸のときめきを). So far the B-Track has not been released so I will keep you up to date with this announcement. What I do know is that this single will be released Sept. 30th.

Kusumi Koharu Solo DVD Announced

A solo DVD has been announced for Kusumi Koharu, which probably means that we can expect to see a PB from her soon. According to a description from H!O: She went to Okinawa, did some cooking, some wake-boarding on the beach and of course there are the mandatory swimsuit shots.

She has had a pretty steady PB release schedule with one every year, (the PB that is soon to be announced will be her 4th solo PB), so it was kind of expected for this to happen.

I am somewhat excited for the release, even though her Kirarin voice sometimes gave me a headache I have to admit she’s cute and she sings well when she doesn’t stress her voice. We have already seen Koharu doing surfing, so wake-boarding will be somewhat similar, and the cooking segment will be interesting since I haven’t seen her cook that much.

The release date for the solo DVD is set for 9/30.

°C-ute – EVERYDAY Zekkouchou! Single V Announced

The Single V for C-ute’s 10th single titled EVERYDAY Zekkouchou has been announced. From previous Single V’s the tracklist will probably have the original PV, an alternate version of the PV, and the Making Of (not confirmed, only a guess).

I have no idea what the PV could look like, but the title suggests it could be an upbeat and happy themed PV (roughly “EVERYDAY Zekkouchou” translates to “Everyday in perfect form”)

The release date for the Single V is 9/30.

Yorosen! Vol 1 & 2 DVD Announced

Two DVDs featuring episodes from Yorosen have been announced. If you haven’t gotten a chance to see the episodes (and you know Japanese) it’s a good chance to catch up.

I have no idea how many episodes are in each volume but like the Berikyuu DVDs I expect to see more volumes released (for some reason they release two DVDs the same day).

The release date for the two DVDs is 9/30.

Morning Musume – Aki Urara Preview Released

A preview of Morning Musume’s c/w to Regular and Limited A & B versions titled Aki Urara has been released. The song is slightly slower than Nachatte Renai but it has a more R&B styled sound than most of their recent releases.

The preview is of cellphone quality so I can’t make out most of the voices, but for sure I hear Takahashi and Tanaka. I think I hear Niigaki, Kamei (I’m slightly sure that GakiKame sing, but I’m not entirely sure) and Michishige (it might be Takahashi singing in a low voice).

Since the preview for Aki Urara has been released, it’s only a matter of time until we get a preview for the 40th Commemorative Edition c/w “Subete wa Ai no Chikara”.

The release date for Morning Musume’s 40th single Nanchatte Renai is set for 8/12.

Source: Official Pony Canyon Site

The full tracklist for Guardians 4’s 2nd single titled School Days has been released. The c/w’s title is “Itsuka Doko ka de” (according to Google it translates to “Someday Somewhere”) which possibly means it’s a ballad or a slow song.

Like the last single Shugo Chara Egg will have a cover of “School Days” included as a track along with the original “School Days” and “Itsuka Doko ka de” and the instrumentals.

The release date is set for 9/2.
