^Main points.
Golden China Town:
- He pointed out the frequency of "chaina" parts in the lyrics - obviously that was made on purpose.
- The basic is classical disco music, but has many new sounds to it as well.
- In the MV, while being slightly strange, there's an oriental feel to it as well.

Sayonara usotsuki no watashi:
- The mature/adult singing and dance is heavily taken into consideration for this song.
- Before Berryz might have done mature things, but this song confirms it.
- The MV is really cool.

Lately Shimizu has become able to sing mature songs while doing mature expressions. Her dancing has a stickiness to it too. One doesn't really think of her as small. You feel that she has few limitations. She's really worked hard, albeit calmly, as the Captain to get this far. From now on I want her to to stand out, not only with the group, but on her own as well!

Natsuyaki was given the role of sub-Captain from Shimizu. She'll pull the group with her, with her big-sister qualities and sharp sensitivity. I don't think there's any other that makes brown-dyed hair seem as natural as she does. I want her to put out more of her ego (not selfishness) out there, or rather the things she's good at. I think that'd reflect good on both the group and herself.

Sudou gives one impression that she's always spacing out because of her round eyes, but that's not the case. She's the one who, sometimes with and overhead view looks at the group, and sometimes does so from the middle. She's the one who makes the atmosphere go from right to left in Berryz Kobo. The mood-maker.
This might seem as a wild comment, but that's her good parts. When she gives her 100% she's the coolest!

Kumai has grown big. Of course, her height is something too, but rather than that, she's growing mentally as well. She has the experience of being a student, and she's amazingly picky about the things she's interested in. If she'd become a bit softer and maybe learn how to cook a bit, she would possibly get closer to be a "good woman?" (laugh)

Sugaya is quite picky about her haircolor~. In that sense, she might be the one that's changed the least since she was small, but when it comes to music, singing and dancing, she keeps on growing. If she'd get stronger ambitions, she would surely grow stronger too.

Tokunaga as she cut her hair, it feels like she broke away from something. She's not only very energetic but she also has the calm of an adult. So I think if she would show more of her "Berryz Kobo-self" and her "private-self" I'm sure she'd grow even more.

Tsugunaga is really busy everyday for TV and such. That she keeps that face despite being put down by comedians is great. But I think that her good traits are to be shown from now on. She's much more amazing than the transient crowd-pleaser she is right now. I'll make sure you'll end up paying attention to this!

Even Tsunku is sick of Momochi -- "transient" means "enough already."

[Sohee]

I'd say that he's rather using that word because that's what the public thinks?

[Celedam]

Soooo… everyone is sick of Momochi?

lol @ 2:24, where you see Miyabi singing and Momoko dancing on the side

[wotakubrandon]

What are those white things on their dresses? Teeth?

[Nayoko-Kihara]

I've been wondering about those too. They're distracting.

[Nono]

I kinda see a cat...or a fox?
