random stories on twitter where fans talk about stuff that happened in relation to buying the single. Some fun anecdotes:

- On the release day, this wota went to the store to buy the single, and when he got to the cashier, the guy at the cashier was like "I wonder why everyone is buying Morning Musume today", but the wota was too shy to say why.

- This wota has managed to brainwash his roommate into liking MM by overplaying the music video in their room. So when he was talking about how he really wants MM to get weekly no.1 on the charts, his roommate was like "then why are you still sitting here? go buy it already!"

- my favorite story: This guy wakes up in the morning and his mother suddenly hands him cash and says "I just saw the comments on the Youtube video (for Help Me) and I really want to help them get no.1 now! NOW GO AND HELP YOUR MOM BUY A COPY OF THE SINGLE!" --> if this isn't epic, I don't know what is.

can anyone translate a bit each of the girls' "help me" call from this ?

Couldn't quite catch what Eripon and Zukki said but uhh ..

Riho : I want to get 1st place (in the charts), help me!
Eripon : Following up on Riho's, the rivals/competition in our release date is strong. Help me!
Sakura : Actually I'm still not that close yet with my senpais, help me!
Harunan : Even more than Oda-chan, I want to get closer to my senpais too, help me! (lol she was so nervous, her face is completely flushed and even getting a bit teary)
Fukuhime : My back hurts doing the new single's choreography. (the part where she has to crouch lower than Ishida) Help me!
Ayumin : I'm sorry that even though so many fans are here, when I tried to look up at the ones on the upper floor my neck hurts. Help me!
Kuduu : Morning Musume songs' key are too high, help me!
Reina : Everyone else is using smartphones now, help me!
Zukki : ケーキ? cake? whuh wha
Maachan : I'm causing so much trouble for everyone, help me!
Sayu : Morning Musume's era is repeating itself, help me ! (mainly talking about the age difference between Nakazawa and the next oldest at the time Ishiguro mirroring Sayu's current situation now with the next oldest being Iikubo after Reina leaves ... but I think it can also be taken as an optimistic subtle proclamation for the return of Morning Musume's era /kool-aid + wishful thinking )

cmiiw as always

Lol Eripon's and Ayumin suberi-chara
Reina and Sayu bantering after Kuduu asks Tsunku for lower keyed songs
Reina : No, you should go do more voice training *strict*
Sayu : I understand Tanaka-san *cheerfully* !
Reina : Do you best, Michishige-san *cheerfully* !
Maachan is so cute when she starts giggling all by herself gahhhh
