Hello! Project's Station '25 ~YT · TV · Radio · Magazines~

.. and they also were doing pretty much the exact same amount of concert back when they actually held sports festival, so I really don't get the point you're trying to make?

on 6/2, Morning Musume will featured on an NHK show called "COOL JAPAN" and the topic this week will be "dance"
http://www.helloproject.com/morningmusume/media.html

In the previous episode “Karaoke", many Japanese people sang when they were asked to sing at the pedestrian paradise in Ginza. How do Japanese people react when they are asked to dance? Not only singing but also dancing is important for Japanese Idols.We took a close look at a choreographer to see how popular choreography is born.“Dance" became compulsory class in PE at Japanese Jr. High schools. Our foreign guest went to see how the dance class is like. Will foreigners receive Cool on Japanese dance?

What is Cool Japan?
The keywords, "Cool Japan," are flying all around the world.

From fashion, anime, games, and food, various cultures that the Japanese take for granted are being accepted as cool and trendy by foreigners.

"COOL JAPAN Discovering what makes Japan cool," uses the sense of foreigners to the fullest, to dig up and examine the appeal and secrets of these cool cultural aspects.

I must watch that episode!! Thanks amped for bringing it to my attention.

I watch Cool Japan when I remember it is on Earlier this year they featured Tsunku's Akihabara Backstage Pass and it got the picked as the Cool topic for that week's episode. Now its Morning Musume's turn

Cool Japan's episode on Dance, the CM is on their FB page. They are showing Brainstorming

Update: After viewing the whole CM. UpUp Girls will be on it. Not sure if Morning Musume would be, they only used the Brainstorming MV in the CM. One of the foriegn guests will pay a visit to UpUp Girls and watch them during their dance lesson.

This week's Hello Pro Station!
Includes: Reina Graduation Concert Footage, Kira Kira Shiny G performance, Shabondama, Berryz Chinatown MV, S/mileage release event

Berryz new MV is heaps random for being here.

I think they put the MV here because you can't really appreciate it unless its in HD. But it really reminds me of Flying Get. Just outfits wise and background wise.

But wow Saki, you hot like a sunrise.

Awwh Haruna crying at the end

[mura_yo]

What would you do if each day were an hour longer? All the girls in Morning Musume｡ have been thinking about this question. I think I'd use my extra hour each day to send lots of emails to my grandparents. How about you?

Bless that Shabondama performance. Especially after the ones we got with Platinum Musume.

That "Shabondama" was pretty great. Lots of parks I was excited to hear.
