The Karen girls

When poking around the internets you find an abundance of idols, a group that I recently became aware of was the young idol unit 'Karen girls'.
So far they only have 2 singles which were opening themes to the anime 'Zettai Karen Children'.
The girls currently have a new single coming out soon called 'Fly to the Future'



The most pressing question in my mind is the age of the girls, I'm guessing that the girls are part of a management company or under control of their parents ... either way I hope that they apply to child labour laws ...
Another question is ... what age is acceptable for an idol group?
Do you think there should be an age cap? do you think its a form of child exploitation?
Personally I'm a fan of them and I find the music and vocals quite addictive, no doubt this group will appeal to the fans of much younger idols, but don't let age prejudice stand in the way of an awesome idol unit.

It's awwww right.

Mano Erina's 1st photobook



I haven't bought myself a photo book in a while but looking at these delicious previews I find myself very much tempted to order it from yesaisa.
The official release date is the 10th of Feb so lets hope some kind wota soul makes a full scan of it.
Below are all the previews I can find, don't you think there's a lot of fan service type shots?

... do want.

Berryz Kobo Solo events (1 of 2)



First of all I want to say that this isn't a review or an in depth affair, it's just lots of delicious pic spam and off hand remarks about the latest Berryz solo events.
Lets roll ...


When the girls enter the studio area we get a behind the back stalker type cam, and as you can clearly see its a sausage fest out there ... shock!


First up is the lovely Chinami who has some silky sexy smooth hair


each girl gets to perform 3 songs and also talk about something random (and mundane)
I'm guessing that this is Chinami's dog ... it looks a lot like Maimi's dog 'rocko'


I don't wanna sound too pervy but Chinami has such a killer pair of legs and waist, those shorts are quite lovely


Like most of these events its a mostly male audience, the main demographic seeming to be 20-30 year olds, and in some cases 50+ (see arrow).
It makes me wonder if I will still be lusting after young girls when (if) I become a dried up old biddy.


Next up is Momoko


Momoko never falls out of character, she acts so innocent and naive at all times, when she introduces herself she lets out a childish giggle


Momo decides to bring her guitar along with her (the same guitar used in Dschinghis Khan) ... notice the erect pinky ...


Suddenly a random wota jumps onto the stage to attack momo ... :(


LOL just kidding ...he is infact a mere stage hand helping with the mic stand


You would think that Momoko is about to play something half decent considering she has her fingers stretched onto a scale ...


But her guitar 'playing' leaves a lot to be desired ... much like her piano playing


Next up ... can you guess the girl? wide shoulders, awesome hair, it could only be ...


MAASA SUDO ... how amazing is her hair? its gloriously EPIC.


Maasa's cheeks and lips are looking radiant and kissable


Her bun is just win, but anyway her main talking points are about ...


Her school backpack or the correct term is randoseru


Maasa also treats us to an old skool pic of her as a school girl


It would seem from a young age Maasa has always had a fetish for aviator type sunglasses


Next girl ... the gentle giant Yurina! with lovely smooth hair


She also shows us her randoseru and points out how she decorated it


Like all the girls she sings 3 songs, her voice is quite fragile yet beautiful, Yurina has a way of talking that makes her sound very insecure and hesitant but she has alot of confidence performing her songs in front of everyone without any issues.

PART 2 LATER... ... when I wake up
