^ Women's Only Event

Image

Here's my report from the event (I may have misheard/translated some things as a warning, but it should mostly be all right)

First Sayumi and the girls were pretty overwhelmed by how it felt to have only girls there. They mentioned how the sound was totally different as it's all "Kyaaaa~~" instead of the usual. They all looked pretty stoked. I wonder if they were nervous that it wouldn't have been as many as it was.

For the MC the girls first talked about what kind of girly things they've been doing lately

Masaki: Lately has been putting baby powder on her face before she goes to bed to keep a "youthful" look, she apparently learned this trick from Nakanishi Kana

Riho: Working on those stomach muscles lol She's mentioned this before on TV about the hula hoop thing she does. Sayumi than goaded Riho into showing us all an example of what she means, cause it's only girls here so it's OKAY (lol) So Riho started pretty much air hula hooping for us, explaining that she'd do it while do random things like getting ready for the day.

Kanon: Has a obsession with good smells. She has to make sure that any hand cream and body mist she uses match up. She also mentioned that lately Masaki's smell has been really good and that Sayumi has the best smell ever. Apparently when they were recording the Egao video, when they were all lined up Kanon was next to her and could REALLY smell her cause of the arm movements (she described the smell as FUWAFUWAing off of Sayumi) and it apparenty was the best thing ever. Sayumi replied that she's going to be all paranoid about that from now on.

Erina: I think Eripon's was about how she puts on makeup an dresses really nicely when she goes out, BUT I could be wrong. I only caught some of it. Sayumi mentioned that she was really like that when she was Eripon's age. She said that when she and Kamei Eri would go out, they'd just go to Karaoke, but they'd make sure the looked all nice for it.

Ayumi: Thinks she wants to learn how to cook, maybe. Apparently she's always thinking that 'ahh it would be nice to be able to cook'. Currently she is good at Yakisoba (lol) and Tamagomaki (the rolled up egg-omelet things that they made in that one MM Magazine). The girls were actually impressed with the latter cause it's hard to do the rolling part (From personal experience it is actually super hard).

Sakura: Apparently Sakura has a complex about her... I think it's the eyebags/bottom eyelid? She mentioned that on yesterdays blog she wrote a post about make-up for this(http://ameblo.jp/morningmusume-10ki/entry-11784256981.html) Erina mentioned that she personally draws some in and then Sayumi and Riho went to inspect Erina's face.

Mizuki: I mostly can't remember because it was really short. I think Sayumi was like "That's not a specifically girly thing" or something like that they moved on rather quickly. EDIT: I just remembered what it was with the report that she has the flu! She was talking about how she has been trying to take care of her throat lately. She then noticeably had a pretty hoarse voice. She made it into a joke at the time, but obviously we now know she was actually quite sick.

Embarrassingly I can't remember Haruna and Haruka's at all >___< I'm really sorry.

EDIT: I remembered Haruka's
Haruka: Hers was that she washes her hair THREE times because she really, really likes her hair to have that super clean feeling. When she has to get her hair styles for things, the stylist is often tells her that her hair is TOO clean to style. Mizuki than added that she also washes her hair three times, but when it's time to style her hair the stylist tells her it's always a bit greasy. Apparently because her hair is pretty thin it doesn't take long for it to lose that clean feeling.

Then there was a top of three of... something. I couldn't catch this, they related to the girly thing and girl power and what not and they were not good things. 3 was Eripon's thing and 2 was "Studying How to Cook" which was Ayumi though she tried to get out of it by saying that she was only thinking about learning it and not actually learning it. Both of them were declared OUT! No one had the number 1 thing.

The MC was really enjoyable.

Here's just some personal thoughts on the event and the handshake in the spoiler tag~
Spoiler: show
I was lucky enough to get the 5th row so I really got a close view of the performance. Their dancing is SPOT ON. I think I might have been most impressed by Eripon and Haruka honestly. Both of them kept catching my eye.

As for the handshake event. I think if I went to more my favourites would change. My top two (Maachan and Sakura) are terrible at handshake events LOL Both of them were touch and yank as opposed to any actual shaking. Haruna was my favourite, but that could be because she was like YES A FOREIGNER and caused a little jam because she wanted to know what country I was from. She also has a way of looking at you like you're really important, she's powerful that one. Haruka (Looked genuinely excited to see me), Ayumi and Mizuki (as it is well documented Mizuki has a fine handshake) were my other good experiences. And my last thought in the rather surreal moment was that Sayumi is way tinier in real life than I ever realized. For some reason.

Also everyone is so damn beautiful. Though Haruka and Kanon were my standouts for that.


It was fun~

EDIT: Also one more amusing tidbit. Erina did the announcement of the Couplings Album and was all "Did you guys see the jacket? It's super awesome..." "....I'm in the CENTER" "I FINALLY DID IT I AM FINALLY CENTER" "We'll it's only on the jacket... and it's not in anything especially important BUT I DID IT DAMMIT"

Poor Mizuki! I hope she feels better soon. Her voice was noticeably hoarse a couple of times during the MC...

(Also I remembered Mizuki's and Haruka's answers to the MC question and edited them in, hopefully Haruna's will come to me as well)
