The H!P Musings/Rants Thread

[JonCC]

This is apparently the stylist that did the recent ANGERME christmas outfits as well as previous H!P designs.

Have any of the costume designers ever openly called out their work like that before?

This is the first I've heard of it.

Hello Pro Maruwakari Book 2019 Winter Edition

uniforms :
Angerme - Public School

from the new Hello Pro Maruwakari Book 2019 Winter Edition photoshoot, new H!P official shop goods for the new year featuring uniforms

Perfect.

(by which i mean that the public school image, with casual mix-and-match uniforms, really fits them as a group.)

^ I like the difference with the other groups where all the girls got an uniform look with their uniforms. You can't do that with Angerme.

ANGERME 1st Overseas Live Tour in Paris DVD, 12/5

http://www.helloproject.com/release/detail/UFBW-1612/

After skimming through this on DailyMotion, now I want a DVD of nothing but a guided tour by Wada of the monuments and museums of Paris. Maybe followed by another DVD of nothing but a high fashion shopping spree by Sasaki. There are tantalizing hints of both on the DVD that was actually released, but it's mostly just normal sightseeing.

He has also "published" the MM songs through a company called TuneCore, who have licenced it on YouTube. He has really looked into this and gone all the way. Luckily companies like TuneCore and YouTube are allergic for this kind of situations, they only think in lawsuits. If there's any doubt they shut it down.

I hope that Up Front will act soon, they can always ask JASRAC for help.

I sent in a report to youtube a few days ago. I hope it helped.

It seems youtube has struck down and removed the fraud license company Tunecore and Morning Musume Germany for using Morning Musume's name in Morning Musume official videos and fan videos. But the remnants still remain like "Aim in Ginza" and Morning Musume '18 (without the maru), the tags that Morning Musume Germany used to mess things up

the tags no longer say licensed by "tunecore (Morning Musume Germany)"

So either he took it all down or UF got aware of it and contested the claims.
Regardless: we can now watch Youtube videos again without supporting this fraud.

Subtitles on MV's dissapear or get better. Subtitles (decent ones) on non-MV content, or UF opens up the community subtitles feature on Youtube.

It's probably good that I'm not into H!P as much now as I used to be since all my faves are graduating and my current fave KSS is Yuriya...
