Onto the Brainstorming performance now, loving this concert already.
I loved Haruna's reaction to being told she is a sub-leader :')

yay Sakura takes on some lines for Egao Yes Nude!

edit:


The line distribution is so much better compared to Colourful Character! Im so glad!
Haruka's still kinda hiding tho.

Sakura sounds terrible in this. Worst I've heard her. Enjoying the set list, though.

EDIT: On the other hand, Riho sounds terrific. People need to stop hating.

Man, got major Nacchi vibes from Sayumi at points. Whoa.

I really want to see the vtr footage omgggg

our future musume

[AyuHikaru]

Sakura wasn't bad but she was uneven as hell/ Certain ones she would hit perfectly, others she didn't hit at all.

I'm just going to say it's because she does not have the stamina yet, her being new and all.

FULL CONCERT

just a warning for some people watching through this

during the 2nd medley during Ambitious, the tudou chinese site messes up the video and skips a chunk (7 minutes of it) of that medley. it skips Ambitious to Only you. you'll see it because Reina's outfit is suddenly not the same.

it would better to just download it to fully enjoy it.

I feel the same about Sakura, AyuHikaru. Sakura reminded me of Ai-chan when she smiled during her part in Brainstorming. This concert was way more interesting than CC, but the only thing I didn't like again was the over abundance of Reina/ Sayu/ Riho. Some songs were a little fair this time around, but I still got sick of hearing those three.

Was Pyoco Pyoco Ultra swapped out for Warrate You? I remember seeing it posted as number 9.

You know, I was just thinking about the same thing, the abundance of Reina/Sayu/Riho... except my impression of it being the exact opposite of yours.

This is, without a doubt, Sayu's concert tour. I'm loving the hell out of it and if this heralds her era in the spotlight of MM's performances I'll gladly throw all the money I can spare at UF. for what little time remains...

I mean seriously... last month I was going through 2005-Colorful Character MM's concert DVD's just to look back to around the time I became a fan and in every MM's concert before 123, you can count the times the camera zooms to her in one hand during every full group song, throughout Kaorin-Yossie Musume, Platinum era and until Gaki's grad concert. I mean, she worked the hell out of those precious seconds (at least to me) but it's great to see her getting the actual spotlight in a concert for once. It's long overdue actually, if I may say so myself.

As for Reina and Riho,
Well, this is Reina's graduation concert lol and Riho performed admirably throughout the whole thing, no joke. She really has improved and getting better at performing at that level consistently too. Having plenty of Reina at her last MM concert kinda explains itself I think.
The other girls have no shortage of screentime and parts to sing too by my estimate, I don't have any complaints. At least no one is having it as bad as Sayu during 2005-2006 concerts lol. Yeah, still kinda bitter...

Agreed on Sakura, though I think part of it was my own high expectations of her. Almost forgot that this is her first time performing in a Morning Musume tour.

Btw can I just say, that Dokkan Capriccio... holy shit o__O .The perfect lively concert song, how I wished I was there orz
It's nice to see Riho x Ayumi dance-offs incorporated into it too though I can's say the routine look particularly challenging for those two. Kinda want too see some other combos doing those things too now, PonPon or MaaDuu for example

Must only be for some people, I saw the full thing, it didn't skip at all for me
