Yurina gets owned by a tomato

Photobucket

Awwwwww ... it's enough to melt the blackest of hearts, surely someone should be held responsible for making the gentle giant Yurina cry ... yet the reason she's so upset is because she was FORCED to eat some food she didn't like.
On a recent berrikyu Saki and Yurina faced the challenge of eating some food cooked on a bbq ... with adorable results ...

Photobucket

We start the scene in a small woodland glade, the presenter of Berrikyu ... umm I cant recall his name so lets just call him 'Mr Pink' ... also isn't it funny that most men that work with the girls within hello! project seem to give of a strong homosexual image? ... I'm sure this is done on purpose so the wota's dont get jealous, this makes perfect sense to me because if my girlfriend (Maimi) wanted to go out shoping with a male friend I would be slightly curious who the bloody hell this man was ... but if she said ''Oh Shirow I'm going shopping with gay George see you later'' then I wouldnt bat an eyelid ... or maybe thats just me? ... where was I again? ... yes mr pink!.

Photobucket

Yes mr pink shows the girls what they need to do (which is put their hand in the red box and pull out the name of a food they must eat)
Saki puts her hand in first ...

Photobucket

Saki pulls out えび ! (shrimp) ... she seems slightly hesitant but keeps a smile on her face, personally I would asked to pull out another ball.

Photobucket

Then Mr pink shows Saki and Yurina what he wants them to do ...

Photobucket

Which is to eat the food with a smile on your face and to say delicious!
As you can see Saki is already looking a little scared

Photobucket

Mr pink then rips the head of the shrimp and begins sucking out the 'meat' ... all the girls scream here, I lol'd.

Photobucket

Yummy! as you can clearly see Mr pink is really finding the shrimp tasty!
And now the girls turn ...

Photobucket

Saki slowly places the food between her lips to get the taste ...

Photobucket

Nom nom nom nom nom nom

Photobucket

Success!!! she said Oishii and seemed to of meant it ... and now it's Yurina's turn ...

Photobucket

Yurina clearly looks over joyed with this prospect...

Photobucket

She slowly and carefully places some into her mouth ...

Photobucket

Nom nom nom nom nom nom

Photobucket

Yurina takes a moment to consider if she likes whats in her mouth ...

Photobucket

After a few chews the truth slowly appears ...

Photobucket

awwwwwwwww ... just LOOK into Yurina's eyes ... who could do such a thing!?!

Photobucket

Yurina fights back the tears (ish) and continues to nom

Photobucket

After that traumatic event Yurina is made to make her selection from the red box ... what will it be?

Photobucket

YAY! a tomato! ... Yurina looks overjoyed ...

Photobucket

Looks like she hates tomato ... she dosent seem to be enjoying herself ...

Photobucket

Note: Yurina has not put anything into her mouth yet ...

Photobucket

Mr pink offers her a tomato ...

Photobucket

Yurina seems to be putting on a brave smile ... it wont last ...

Photobucket

Maimi decides to show Yurina that tomatos are tasty!

Photobucket

Maimi slowly parts her lips and places the fruit inside her mouth ...

Photobucket

Nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom

Photobucket

Yurina slowly thinks about it ...

Photobucket

Here we go ...

Photobucket

Can you see the pure terror on her face?

Photobucket

Yurina recoils in pure disgust ...

Photobucket

Mr pink and Saki show their support

Photobucket

She tries to give a brave face for the camera ...

Photobucket

Then forces a smile and almost says delicious ...

Photobucket

Then Yurina is told her whole family just died in a horrible plane crash (that might be a lie)

Photobucket

Yurina starts cying for some water ...

Photobucket

Even after a drink she continues to scream 'Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!'

Photobucket

After such an ordeal Yurina gives us a winning smile, bless her.

Photobucket

Then Yurina grows super tall (this might also be a lie)

So there you have it, Yurina totally won me over with this video, she is clearly the star, all the other girls laugh at her constantly ... which I guess is justified.
You can watch the above episode(s) over at my Berikyuu channel at veoh (over 130 episodes uploaded so far).

The looming tower Yurina Kumai

Photobucket

When I first got into berryz kobo Yurina was probably one of the last girls that I noticed which is quite a feat considering her looming height.
But within time she grabbed my attention for a number of reasons :

1. She is a very good vocalist, she also is considered one of berry'z lead singers, although she might not get as much screen time as Risako or Miyabi, her voice gets a prominent front seat, and quite rightly so.

2. Her maturity, a majority of the berry'z girls are bat shit crazy, yet Yurina always seems to retain her feminine and reserved side, she always seems to be there just looking cool and going with the flow.

3. Her looks, while admittidly she dosen't seem to compare alongside Risako or Miyabi ... I consider her to have the ultimate 'girl next door' vibe going on.
Thankfully there isn't a girl next door that looks like her ... because no doubt she face a constant onslaught of my affection and 'wooing'.

I only found out the other day it was her 15th birthday ... I seriously thought she was close to 16 ... crazy.

Anyway Yurina is now always in my eyes now, and I'm curious if she will ever get a second photobook ... seems a shame to waste such beauty.
Here is a download link for her first photobook (crypticly entitled 'Yurina') its quite lovely indeed.

[UPDATE]

It turns out that over 8000 people cheered and wished Yurina a happy birthday at the 'Hello! Project 2008 Summer concert'.
How awesome must that feel?

Berryz continue to dominate

It would seem that Berryz Kobo have broken a new record with their 16th single release 'Dschinghis Khan' for the most first week sales ever for a H!P kids release!
Selling a most impressive figure of 30,667.
It will be interesting to see if this continues to sell well, I'm also curious if online sales are included in total sales figures? I would like to think so as I got an email the other day telling me my order is the way.
With The berryz growing popularity I see no reason why their 17th single and subsequent 5th album (yet to be confirmed) wont continue to sell brilliantly.
Below is a photoset for the single and the dance version to Dschinghis Khan, note at the end of the video Risako looks absolutely exhausted, bless her.
