Berikyuu Island Suzuki Airi Solo Angle

Airi's solo angle version of the Berikyuu Island concert (thanks to Shurlik for the iso!).

As usual, Airi is too cute for words.

And there are lots of random funny,

and awesome moments.

Because it's Airi, I went a little crazy with some settings again, which resulted in this rip looking a lot better than the ISO, yay.

C-ute 2012 Haru Natsu Youtube Concert

Here is C-ute's concert that was streamed on Youtube earlier!

I'm not going to do a total review (at least not now; too tired. Check my twitter for ramblings) but let me say this: it. was. awesome.

In the first part of the concert, there were quite a few nice dance related moments, including member dance solos in Kachoii uta.

For the solo corners, Maichan performed Yuke Genki-kun (with a guitar as a prop),

Maimi performed Shock (in a really hot outfit),

Chisato performed Tokai no Neon ga Odoroku Kurai Utsukushisa ga Hoshii,

Nakky did Kagayake Houkago,

and Airi's was Bishoujo Shinri.

They also brought back the flags once again.

And Dance de Bakoon! is still hot.

Airi did an acapella opening for Seishun Song.

And Berryz made a surprise performance because of Berikyuu's 10 year anniversary today and together Berikyuu received a cake and performed Chou Happy Song.

Also, the staging was really cool. At one point even fire was involved.

About this encode: the quality isn't very good because, well, that's how it looked on the stream. Also, Youtube decided it would be a good time to buffer right in the middle of Airi's solo so there is about 15 seconds of that missing. Also, I named the file incorrectly (it's Haru Natsu, not Natsu Aki; that's what happens when you encode without sleep). Finally, you can hear Skype IM sounds a few times through the video because I was talking to someone while watching and forgot to turn that volume down.

H!P 2012 Winter ~Rock-chan~ & ~Funky-chan~

Someone encoded the regular DVDs so that means we can finally see the rest of the songs on the setlist! I did a short review of the TV version that you can read in the other post. These are the same concerts, just with the performances that were edited out from the TV broadcast.

For me, Glass no Pumps is still my favorite, even after seeing the solos and the other performances that were omitted from the TV broadcast. The performance is seriously flawless, just like the members who performed it. Among the not-previously-seen performances, Kikka's Konna Watashi de Yokattara stood out the most to me. Although she was a good singer even back when she auditioned, being in the Eggs for so long seems to have paid off for her a lot because she's improved immensely. If she was a H!P member right now, she'd definitely be near the top of the list of best singers. I also loved 9th gen's Seishun Collection even though I'm not too fond of the song. 

Also, during one of the Rock-chan MCs, there was an English writing skills competition. Four members had to change a bunch of katakana vocabulary words into English. Reina failed the hardest:

lol, Dert.

You can choose between split .rar files (the first two links below) or split HJSplit files (the last two links).
