Members Yuri Nakamura = Ruri Hai (real name), Yuri Nakamura (stage name), lost her virginity around age 30? AZUKI Nana = Rie Sugaya, appeared on television as an entertainer and once did elementary-school cosplay Hirohito Furui = same real name, Christian, affiliated with Being since the first half of the 1990s Hitoshi Okamoto = same real name, younger twin brother of the first guitarist Jin, graduated from Doshisha University's Faculty of Engineering, and has provided songs for ZARD, Mai Kuraki, and others

Reply to >>998 in the previous thread: To put it bluntly, she's flat-chested.

>3 What color is the bra visible through the clothing? It isn't black or something, is it? And about how many people came to see it?

Is what the second poster said about Yuri Nakamura = Ruri Hai (real name) true?

>>5 It's made-up nonsense. People have been bickering about this topic like idiots since the previous thread, so please ignore it.

Honestly, is there something wrong with your brain if you think this might be true? lol Still, it really is difficult to separate reliable information from the leaks about Oshi and Noripi.

GARNET CROW talk-event tickets have skyrocketed in price on Yahoo Auctions.

>>4 It's white. The glass is thick and a little foggy, so you can't see very well. There were about 20 to 30 customers.

>>9 Quite a lot of people came. Isn't that not very many for Sendai?

I want to drink Yurippe's (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist) urine.

>>10 Apparently there were also people who came from Yamagata and Ibaraki. Thirty is a little borderline, but I think there were at least twenty.

Even just once, I want to try having sex... But brothels make me feel a little uncomfortable...

I went to Disc Pier in Nihonbashi during my break. The ticket number for the 18:00 session that came with the CD I preordered was quite early, but I wanted to see both sessions, so I bought another CD, and the ticket that came with that one was in the 100 range... They could have spread them out a little more. It actually makes me a bit sad. They gave me a question card along with the ticket. If you have anything you want to ask, write it down.

>>14 Which brand and product does Yurippe use for her panty liners? And is she a virgin? If she isn't, I want to ask how old she was when she had her first experience.

I just finished watching the DVD. Elysium is a masterpiece. I agree with what poster 993 in the previous thread said. It forms a contrast with Nana-sama (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist).

>15 Go read the FAQ, newbie lol Yurippe uses Unicharm Sofy panty liners. http://www.sofy.jp/

I bought it. As expected, the B-side is better. I've already gotten tired of listening to “Hana wa Saite.”

I overwhelmingly prefer “Hana wa Saite ~.” I've been playing this song over and over. It feels like a song with a slightly sensual atmosphere. As expected, Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto) doesn't come along to promotional events in places a little farther away, like Hokkaido or Tohoku lol After all, if they had to stay overnight, it could be troublesome if something happened.

I watched the DVD. Yurippe is a manufactured fake beauty. Nana-sama is so beautiful—I was mesmerized.

Yurippe is the ideal of beauty. Don't make fun of her!

Do we have to wait until the fan-club newsletter arrives on the 27th before we can access the website? I don't know the password.

The newsletter says the password will be changed, so it should already have been changed by the time it was sent out. People in places where the mail arrives quickly should get it tomorrow, so there's nothing we can do.

They change the password with every newsletter. What a hassle.

Isn't the video message on the website trying a little too hard to act cute? “...you know.” What's wrong with you, Yuri?

Because she thinks she's cute herself. That's why she stuffs her breasts more than necessary, too.

There are album PVs on YouTube.

Does she think she's cute? Isn't it that she seems unconfident and the way she feels she isn't cute is what makes her adorable?

No, no, no. She's the typical type who looks humble on the surface but is actually very confident in her own beauty. Yurippe knows exactly how beautiful she is.

I got the first-press limited edition early today. I'll listen to it after I finish making tomorrow's bento. Even if I had the chance, I'm the type who absolutely never listens to an album before its release date. I want to preserve the emotion and impression of hearing it for the first time. But I like letting my imagination run wild, so please tell me what you thought of “Elysium” and “Koi no Aima ni” on this DVD. For example, the lyrics, the melodies, or which older songs they resemble.

>>20 I agree. Nana-tan is so beautiful. Yurippe used to be a delinquent girl.

So she is confident in her looks. I wouldn't call her beautiful, though. What about Nana-sama? Do truly beautiful people feel confident?

I get to see Yurippe live this Saturday (・∀・) I'm really looking forward to it.

↑↑Looking at this whole string of posts, I can really see how accurately Amazon categorized GARNET CROW lol ◆ Music > J-POP > Idol pop

The outro melody of “Ai ni Niteru” sounds a lot like “U.” And the lyrics even contain a line like “I don't need a heart,” so it feels pretty similar too.

Nana's wrinkles around her mouth are pretty noticeable... I think Yurippe is quite beautiful, though.

Yuri is plain, but her features are crammed together and make her face look cluttered. Nana, on the other hand, has a dazzling, almost translucent beauty.

They're both beautiful.

>>38 > “Her features are crammed together and make her face look cluttered.” That's the first time I've seen someone put it that way. By the way, you're subtly insulting Yurippe, aren't you? This thread doesn't need people like you. Get out.

There are a lot of Nana worshippers who badmouth Yurippe. It's strange, since Nana likes Yurippe so much. The standards for “beautiful” and “cute” differ a lot between men and women, and from person to person too, I suppose. The women whom other women call beautiful are often disappointing.

Nana is the kind of Korean-style beauty who looks like Choi Ji-woo.

>>29 >>30 All that stuff about originally wanting to work behind the scenes and hitting it off during Kuraki's recording sessions is just a gimmick. She wanted to be the lead vocalist from the beginning—she's an attention-seeking delinquent. >>42 Bae Ruri is the real Korean beauty.

>>43 Is it true that the kanji in her real name, which was mentioned in the previous thread, can't be read? If you interpret what post 38 said in the best possible light, it means Yurippe has a masculine face, and there are many beautiful women with masculine faces. It's true—Yurippe does have a masculine face...

>>38 > “A face with its features crammed together.” She does have a face that feels very small. But she's beautiful, so it doesn't matter.

Here, I see love. Then I learn of fate... The ultimate in love ...GARNET CROW

>>44 I told you it was made up.

>>41 The beautiful women men praise are all pretty dowdy. That's because their standard is whether their dick gets hard.

>>28 What keywords should I search for?

Yurippe is kind of questionable...

>>43 > “Someone who wanted to be a vocalist from the beginning and loved being the center of attention.” If that's the case, why was she wearing a tracksuit at her first live show?

◇ Single preliminary chart, 8/19 *1　Kiyoshi Hikawa *2　TOKIO *3　B'z *4　The Gospellers *5　Ayumi Hamasaki *6　Motoharu Hara *7　Tatsuro Yamashita *8　Morning Musume *9　GARNET CROW 10　Lil'B

I ordered three GARNET CROW albums—Sparkle, Crystalize, and Rox—along with several albums by other artists on Amazon, and they just arrived. This is my first time buying a GARNET CROW CD. I'm going to listen to them carefully later. But the covers... When I opened the Amazon cardboard box, there was a close-up of a face right there (even though I knew it would be like that), and it felt a little embarrassing. At a physical store, it would be difficult to buy something like that. I really wish they would stop using artist photos on the covers. At least something at the level of Sparkle would be fine. I buy GARNET CROW for the music, so I wouldn't mind even a plain-colored cover.

The DVD that comes with the single contains the PVs for songs from the album scheduled for release on September 30.

“Ai ni Niteru” My first impression was that it sounds like a daytime TV drama.

>>51 That tracksuit... What kind of fashion sense makes someone choose that? It's not some amateur's live show. There's no way the clothes were something she brought herself, right? I can't tell whether Yurippe chose them herself or the stylist did. The fashion sense in every era has been terrible.

Speaking of covers, isn't the best one probably “Sekai wa ~”? Yurippe is cute, and somehow blue really suits GARNET CROW.

Yurippe on the “Sekai wa ~” cover looks like an acquaintance of mine who isn't very attractive.

>>58 I think that cover is cute. It's probably just a difference in taste.

The clothes for the live show were probably something she brought herself... Mirror ball lol

Give us love!

If I renew my fan-club membership at the live venue, do I get anything? Could someone please tell me?

>>52 Probably a poster.

>>42 There are rumors that AZUKI Nana is Zainichi, but Yuri Nakamura is Japanese.

Are the people who keep shouting “Zainichi, Zainichi” right in the head?

“Elysium,” which is apparently going to be included on the album, is a great song. I originally thought the DVD only contained the PV for “Hana wa Saite Tada Yurete.” So this was a really pleasant surprise~ lol

Isn't the bank shown behind the old guy in the PV the same one as in “flying”?

I really like the chorus of “Ai ni Niteru.” Also, judging from the “Elysium” PV, Yurippe's flat chest has been confirmed lol

>>68 A little smaller is best.

I want to give the members a bouquet of flowers at the live show. I wonder if bouquets are allowed?

>>67 It's the building that appears at the beginning of “Elysium.” It's not a bank, but the Osaka Prefectural Nakanoshima Library. The sign reads “大阪圖書館” from right to left.

I listened to the new song, and it feels very erotic somehow.

>>69 It's not merely a little small.

>>70 If someone gives them a bouquet, won't they know it was you? lol

>>74 There seem to be plenty of people who give bouquets to Yurippe and Nana-sama, but almost none who give them to O-san and Mochi.

Isn't the DVD playback volume especially loud?

Yuri looks better with her hair loosely tied than pulled tight like it was during the Mirror Ball era.

GARNET CROW lost to Morning Musume in the second week.

Only longtime fans buy GARNET CROW anyway. It's hard for newcomers to feel its appeal. If they promoted it as relentlessly and annoyingly as Girl Next Door, it might sell a little better...

>>74 It could be Beckham too.

What would happen if GARNET CROW moved to Avex?

The tie-in songs are so shabby every single time.

>>84 If they moved to Avex, would they show even more skin than they do now?

Since this song is also included on the album coming out soon, it might be difficult for it to make the top ten.

The filming locations for Yurippe and Nana in the album PVs are way too close to my commute route. I can't tell whether I should be happy or sad.

These three songs—“Ai ni Niteru,” “Koi no Aima ni,” and “Elysium”—all have lyrics like “the sky is far away,” though the wording differs.

Hasn't Yurippe's face changed way too much compared with the early days? That's what I thought when I watched “GARNET TIME.”

Her recent makeup style... (>_<) It's about time she changed her hairstyle a little too... (>_<)

>>91 Her eyes are completely different. They used to look more like monolids, or at least narrower. Now they look bright and dewy, probably because of makeup.

>>87 (・ω・｀；) Harabo's new single came in two versions for some reason... (Is there really demand for that?)

>>94 I don't think she had work done on her face itself, but she has lost quite a bit of facial fat. That probably made her features look more defined and three-dimensional. The area around the eyes can change a lot just through makeup or reducing puffiness.

Sorry, I meant >>93.

Nana-sama looks old in “Koi no Aima ni.” I can't hide how shocking it is. Or is this simply what comes with her age?

Everyone in this thread really likes GARNET CROW.

>>93 I used to love those clear, straight, round eyes... In PVs like “Yume Mita Ato de” and “Atsumeru,” there are close-ups of Yurippe's eyes, and they had such a lovely, ethereal quality...

Looking at several stores, I saw people buying the greatest-hits album together with the new single. There were many women too. Could the number of new fans be growing? Did moving away from the anime route and running a concentrated advertising campaign on TBS help? The tie-in song is shabby, but did the special SMAP feature do the trick!? The first-press editions seem likely to sell out soon. So far, they have even beaten Yamashita's song from “Summer Wars.” They managed to hold on to number 10 on the weekly chart this time too.

At last it was release day, so I excitedly ran to the nearest Tsutaya to buy it, but they were sold out＼(^o^)／ The first-press edition of “Hyakunen no Kodoku” was sitting there instead lol Why＼(^o^)／

>>93 >>99 I also liked those round eyes she used to have. When I watch the recent PVs, I feel like her eyes have changed quite a bit...

“Ai ni Niteru”—probably because I had only listened to the chorus on the official website beforehand, the transition from the first verse to the chorus felt a little awkward lol

Are you talking about Arashi for the compilation album?

I went to a nearby store to buy it, but it was sold out (´・ω・｀) I guess I'll have to go farther away tomorrow.

I went to a nearby Tsutaya last night, and there was only one first-press edition on the shelf. They must not have stocked many... (・ω・｀;)

This time's newsletter looks like it will be incredibly sexy.

Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist) is so cute in the PV. I want to suck on those lips.

Lately, just seeing the word “Yurippe” nearly gets me hard lol

>>64-65 They were talking about Yuri Nakamura. People viewing this thread are also viewing these threads.

I heard Yurippe's favorite food is kimchi.

What's so good about that unmarriageable, mean-spirited, ugly Zainichi hag Yuri Nakamura? Nana-sama (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) is beautiful by comparison. Without Nana-sama, they wouldn't be nearly this popular.

I completely agree. The number of fans would be different depending on whether Nana-sama were there or not.

She has such an old-lady vibe... Nana-sama, lol

People who like Yurippe → ugly-woman fetishists People who like Nana → old-lady fetishists Both sides are trash.

Yurippe really does seem to mistakenly think she's cute.

She's actually cute, isn't she?

How is she cute?

Isn't being a little better-looking than an ordinary person good enough? Let's end the discussion about their looks here.

Number one on Amazon's J-POP rankings!

Why is Yurippe being criticized so harshly? Yurippe is quite beautiful. Rather than being the feminine, cute type who appeals to everyone from children to the elderly, she's more of a cool-beauty type, so tastes may be polarized.

Cool... beauty... type... ...Huh?

>>122 You're right!

Anyone who calls Yurippe beautiful should get their eyes examined.

It is true that Nana-sama is beautiful.

I think Yurippe is beautiful. But Nana is still my favorite lol

You get pleasure and sexual excitement by putting Yurippe down. To put it plainly, it's just your uncontrollable love for Yurippe expressing itself in a twisted form.

I want to ruin Yurippe.

Has everyone's newsletter arrived yet? Mine hasn't arrived...

>>131 Mine hasn't arrived either. I feel like arriving sometime this week would be normal, though I have no basis for that.

>>131 It arrived just now when I got home @ Tokyo Doesn't the venue for the countdown concert seem a little small?

I got home very late, and the new single finally arrived from konozama. Why didn't they make “Ai ni Niteru” a single?! Though I suppose that's just the GARNET way, so I can't really complain...

Personal attractiveness ranking (Being-GIZA only) Izumi Sakai Yoshiko Utoku AZUKI Nana Shiori Takei Yuka Saegusa Yuri Nakamura ← here Hiromi Haneda Mai Kuraki Aiko Kitahara Azumi Uehara Rina Aiuchi Aika Ohno : Shigeo Nagashima (courtesy mention)

>>135 Ah! I forgot Miho Komatsu~ Izumi Sakai Yoshiko Utoku AZUKI Nana Miho Komatsu < Shiori Takei Yuka Saegusa Yuri Nakamura ← here Hiromi Haneda Mai Kuraki Aiko Kitahara Azumi Uehara Rina Aiuchi Aika Ohno

I quite like “Ai ni Niteru.” But the melody in the second half of the chorus gives me a sense of déjà vu. I can think of several similar songs; I guess it's a melody Japanese people tend to come up with... And once again, the lead song < the B-side.

>>95 Sudden weight loss, drooling. Could it be!?

Also, that abnormally high-spirited mood during “Spiral.” Suspicious.

I personally couldn't get into the album “LOCKS.” Since the beginning of this year, I've skipped buying both the CDs and DVDs. But after watching the PVs for the new album's new songs on YouTube, I wanted it again. I think the 1st and 4th albums are masterpieces, but this one feels surprisingly good after a long time.

Nana and Yurippe together make one complete whole. Masked Rider GC

>>140 The 4th album has a similar atmosphere to “Hana wa Saite ~,” and I like it too. It might be my favorite song on a single CD.

The anime-style illustrations in the “Everyone's Plaza” section of the newsletter are really good.

I guess it'll be around number 10 again.

Personally, I feel the seventh album will become their greatest masterpiece after the greatest-hits album.

>>116 AZUKI Nana is an old lady.

I preordered “Hana wa Saite” on Amazon on 8/10, but I still haven't received even a payment number. Could it be out of stock?

Found this to kill some time: http://www.fujistaff.com/work/tekijob/index.html

When I search for “GARNET CROW” on Yahoo, why does “GARNET CROW Noriyuki” appear among the other suggested search terms??

I went to the nearby Bunshindo, and they only had the first-press limited edition.

>>149 Could it be because they appeared on a Hokkaido TV program a while ago? lol

They've released their 30th single, and they're still getting treated to such lousy commercial promotion.

Even the core, longtime fan base is starting to waver. When a woman starts giving off an old-lady vibe, her popularity really drops fast.

Rankings don't really matter anymore, do they? lol They've figured out that nobody will buy it unless they improve the content. That's enough, lol

The only way is to strip. Yeah.

If the fans who only came for their faces and bodies disappeared, it would be peaceful.

If only she could use the Kaioken like Aiuchi ^^

Countdown to the end of their activities.

Are the people posting obscene comments in this thread anti-fans?

“ON THE WAY” is pretty good. In terms of its sense of speed, it feels a little like “his voyage.”

Where did you hear it?

I really want to have anal sex with Yurippe.

>>169 They played it on the radio.

I want to study hard enough to become a proctologist, then spend a long time carefully examining Yurippe's anus.

I want to stick my dick in Yurippe's eye.

>>171 Seriously? Lucky you~

Let's decide on GARNET CROW's strongest song. http://dubai.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/keiba/1250765152/ Come quickly before the thread gets buried.

If you know the thread is going to get buried, there's no point posting it lol

Although I wrote that it would get buried, it was actually moved to the Anything Goes board.

Can you only buy the fan-event merchandise if you go to the venue? Will it be available by mail order later? Someone who went to the previous fan event, please tell me.

I came here from the horse-racing board.

I really want to count the wrinkles in Yurippe's anus.

Anal fetishists are disgusting.

An ad for “Hana wa Saite” aired on the show “Guru Nai.” I pointed at it and told my wife, “Ah, it's those people—the band I've been listening to!” She said Yurippe was “a beautiful woman.” That made me a little happy.

I don't like calling it “anal.” You should say “anus” properly.

The recent songs are sung with too much force. I feel like all the B-sides are starting to sound alike too. At this rate, every time they release a new song, there will be more and more “anus” and other perverted comments lol

The photo in the “Yuri's Eye” column of the newsletter, where she received a gift from a friend, is unbelievably cute. Even though she was having a private meal with a friend, dressing this cutely must attract attention.

The anus is the important passage through which Yurippe's beloved poop says hello to our world. It's strange to call that perverted.

This was my first time looking at the newsletter, and it's pretty good. (Especially the candid photos of the members and things like that...)

Yurippe feeding grass to the little horse is incredibly cute. I wish they could capture that kind of smile naturally in an interview video...

>>185 Is that the photo in YURI's Essay where she says, “I received a gift from a ‘friend’~”? It seems like her hairstyle and makeup change when she's in private. But she's both cute and beautiful either way.

>>186 That gives me a strong sense of déjà vu.

>>188 That photo of the little horse touched me too.

>>189 I read the newsletter. Yurippe's smile really is the best. It can hold its own against Nana-san's huge breasts!

>>185 Considering her age, it really couldn't have been just a “friend,” could it... Didn't it occur to you that it might have been a boyfriend or husband, you GARNET CROW otaku?

>>193 I don't have a hobby of snooping into people's private lives and making baseless guesses.

>>193 What a contrarian. If you're not a GARNET CROW otaku, don't go out of your way to post here. Don't you have anything else to do?

Forget that—listen to this, everyone! I've had this question for a while, and after reading the newsletter, I'm even more curious! Are Okamocchi (Hitoshi Okamoto) and Aika Ohno married? Okamocchi uses a Mac at home. And Aika wrote this on her blog: http://www.aika-ohno.com/column/main157.html What do you all think?

Yurippe got pregnant and married when she debuted. The child is grown up now. Maybe she's thinking about having a second child.

There are more dirty jokes than comments about the new songs. GARNET CROW fans are something else.

I didn't expect that so little about the members' private lives would be dug up. Doesn't anyone here know Yurippe personally? Though she does wear a ring on her left ring finger, which makes it seem like she's married.

Follow-up to 196... For what it's worth, both of them say they use a Mac at home.

>>197 If that's true, she would be the mother of an elementary-school child by now. Still, something like a “Hacchan T-shirt” doesn't really feel like something an elementary-school mother would have...

194 Name: 名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい. [sage] 投稿日: 2009/08/21 (Fri) 00:35:49 ID:PBpJtDvZ0 >>193 I don't have a hobby of snooping into people's private lives and making baseless guesses.

It should be about time for 9-chan merchandise to come out.

For what it's worth, the plan at the beginning of their career was to launch them with a big splash, but Yuri-chan (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist) couldn't appear publicly because she was giving birth and raising a child. They had such high expectations that they got a major tie-in from their debut single onward. If Yuri-chan had just been an ordinary singer who couldn't compose, she probably would have been shelved long ago.

>>204 First you talked about an affair, and now you're talking about a child. No one is taking you seriously, so stop. Posting things like this over and over will only make you feel worse. Thinking dark thoughts all the time shows in your words, actions, and appearance, creating a vicious cycle.

>>205 I don't know about the affair, but what I just wrote is well known in the industry. It is unprecedented. Is starting a family something dark?

>>196 Even if they really are married, why would they need to hide it deliberately? They're not idols...

Yuri-chan probably had an abortion, since she was preparing to debut at the time.

>>207 Judging from their appearances on JGM back then, they did have an idol-like image. But if she had given birth, wouldn't her belly have grown too large for filming JGM...?

>>208 The company probably wanted that.

>>178 Could someone answer this...?

>>206 Even if it's true, what are you trying to accomplish by saying it in a fan thread? Besides, nobody knows who you are, so how could anyone believe you? Why don't you leak it to the media?

It's baffling that this person keeps going despite clearly lying about it. That kind of thing won't reduce the number of fans or change sales. Posting things like this only poisons your own mind, makes people dislike you, and invites them to provoke you, which will cause you stress. I'm genuinely worried about you.

Any normal, sensible person wouldn't believe it without a reliable source of concrete information (hearing it directly from the person herself). Anyone who readily believes other people is an idiot and an easy target for bank-transfer scams.

>>212 I won't say who I am. After all, this is an anonymous forum. If you don't want to believe me, that's fine too.

>>215 It doesn't matter anymore, so stop. If you want to pretend to be an insider, you should at least give some clue that makes people think you're in the industry or otherwise connected. Just putting on an act and saying all this is completely pointless.

I'm sorry. It was all made up. I wrote it because I love Yuri-chan too much. The story was my wish. Everyone wants her to be a virgin, but I wanted her to get married, have children, and live a happy life. Please forgive me.

That disgusting behavior is so typical of GIZA fans.

>>217 You should at least have added details like “the agency's department head T flew into a rage over the shotgun marriage,” with the partner being some unknown S who works in music in Kansai. That kind of performance would have been more convincing (lol).

Is the full-song preview not ready yet~? (･∀･ )っ/凵⌒☆ﾁﾝﾁﾝ

>>178 You can!! But if it sells out at the venue, or if it's venue-exclusive, then you can't.

AZUKI 222

>>185 What does “dressing this cutely” look like? I hope you can describe it specifically. Do you mean her clothes, her hairstyle, or something like that?

>>223 Join the fan club.

>>193 Even at 32, going out with friends is perfectly normal, right? (lol)

>>223 She was wearing a beret.

>>207 Concluding they're married just because they both use Macs is a bit much... Graphic designers and musicians mostly use Macs. The reason is that there is more specialized software available for Mac.

Are the album covers ready yet?

>>13 If you warm up a masturbator, it should be a little better... Please report back~

>>226 A beret... Is she consciously imitating Che Guevara or something? Could Yuri-chan be a militarist?

>>217 It feels a little like some baseball insider gossip that a Hanshin fan heard from a player at an izakaya in Kansai (mostly negative news about the Giants). Lately, whenever I see a girl who looks a lot like Yuri-chan, my heart skips a beat.

Since when has O-san worn sunglasses?

>>232 As long as I can remember.

Is the vocalist on drugs?

>>233 Come on lol

>>232 Since the solar eclipse a few days ago.

>>236 Hahaha.

How much do they get per CD sold?

>>238 I've heard it's 7% for lyrics, 7% for composition, and 4% for arrangement. (Since I heard it on 2ch, take its reliability for what it's worth...)

>>238 Apparently the percentages are actually determined by the contracts they sign with music publishers. The following is just a rumor, but supposedly Being doesn't treat them as authors and pays them like employees. Of course, these contracts also depend on the company's bargaining power, so people like the two members of B'z receive royalties, while others transfer their copyrights to the publisher and receive a salary.

Royalties are a legal obligation that must be paid. If you don't receive them, it's illegal and someone will be arrested. You don't know anything.

The newsletter still hasn't arrived today. Has it ever taken this long before?

>>241 Royalties are indeed paid, but if the rights were transferred in advance to a publisher or something, the royalties ultimately flow to the publisher instead. So even after producing a hit song, some musicians are still poor at first. Of the roughly 6% in royalties, the artist's share is only around 1.5–2%. You're the one who doesn't know anything.

>>241 First, try learning how to write correct Japanese sentences.

>>232 She didn't wear them before lol lol. She probably started after GARNET CROW was formed, right?

>>242 Judging from this thread, I apparently received mine earlier than everyone else last time. But this time's still hasn't arrived. Could they have made some adjustment to prevent one particular region from always receiving it late?

>>246 The downside of postal privatization has arrived━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)＝―!

Yuri's cuteness is the real deal. Amazing. I don't care what Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) is like.

>>238 If you're interested, you should read a book by Masao Akashi, who used to arrange for B'z. “The Job of Making and Selling Music—This Is What I Want to Know! 83 Unwritten Rules of the Industry” Author: Masao Akashi　Publisher: Rittor Music

>>240>>243 Thanks for the insider information. If it's an employee system, they can keep working and make a living even if they're never hugely successful, so it might actually be pretty good for people like Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto). So does that mean they don't care even if they go solo and don't become popular?

There are 121 songs in total, right?

There was an ad before “Tamo Sute.” It feels like they're running quite a lot of ads this time.

>>252 I saw it yesterday and today. I'm happy about it, but since they rarely appear on TV, it was also a bit startling lol

>>251 Isn't it 122 songs?

>>254 Seriously?! Which song did I leave out?

100　Namida no Yesterday 101　Go For It 102　Ichiban Suteki 103　Sekai wa Mawaru 104　Kanata Made Hikari 105　Argentina Babaa 106　Saigo no Ritou 107　Mou Ichido Waratte Yurushite 108　Doubt 109　Futari Ecchi 110　Mr. Holiday 111　The First Cry 112　Ai wa Tori 113　Yume no Hitotsu 114　Love Lonsta 115　Mijikai Natsu 116　Hyakunen no Kodoku 117　Tokei Jikake 118　Secret Path 119　Doing All 120　Nora 121　Hana wa Saite 122　Ai ni Niteru

Finding the missing song is such a pain! Why did I have to leave out exactly one?

>>257 The easy ones to forget are: Sayonara to Tatta Hitokoto de Sora-iro no Neko

“ON THE WAY” is playing in an ad for the Hokkaido Marathon, but ordinary people probably don't know it.

Number 15. The decline just won't stop.

It's impossible for GARNET to stay near the top of the rankings, isn't it? It's not as if this only started today.

Even farther down than usual. Thanks a lot.

Rather than running ads, they should appear on “Tamo Sute.”

>>263 Impossible—there's no demand.

>>258 Thanks. It was “Sayonara~,” I found it.

I didn't expect Yuri-chan to be that cute even in private, having dinner with a friend. I don't care if Nana doesn't have a boyfriend, but I hope Yuri-chan does.

>>266 You saw her? If you wander around the Minami area, do you actually run into the members?

>>267 I saw it in the newsletter.

>>268 Oh, I see. Mine hasn't arrived yet. I need to change my address.

>>256 “Argentina Babaa” lol “Nora” lol lol I burst out laughing lol lol

The red trench coat is so cute.

The fan-club-members-only cellphone wallpaper is kind of questionable.

It feels like the kind of thing where you think, “Couldn't they just use photos of the actual members?” How strict are they with the fans? (lol) (lol) (lol) They really don't trust us, do they? (lol)

I haven't seen this ad yet (´・ω・｀) Is Fuji TV not going to air it? Don't forget to watch Conan tomorrow.

Is “Dennou Coil” any good?

In a sense, Mochi's birthday present counts as a present from Yuri-chan too. This time, whether it was the fan event or the tour, normally the dates should have overlapped with one of them.

>>234 The code word between RariP and Yuri-chan is “mammoth.”

>>240 If it's a salary plus royalties, then even if the work doesn't sell well for some reason, at least their livelihood is relatively stable lol >>all Quoting some lyrics: “The will to know the powerlessness of prayer, basking in the sun that appears from time to time.” I don't know where the line break should go. In other words, is it: “the will to know the powerlessness of prayer, which appears from time to time” or “basking in the sun that appears from time to time”? Which one is it?

Why does everything uploaded to GIZA MUSIC NET consist of photos of exceptionally handsome middle-aged men?

>>278 I think it's a matter of personal taste, so interpret it however you like.

>>232-233 There's a video uploaded in O-san's posts where he isn't wearing sunglasses. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVCc36uWC5E Talking about Yuri and Nana is fine, but please mention O-san once in a while too.

>>281 You forgot Mochi again. Talking about Yuri, Nana, and O-san is fine, but please mention Mochi once in a while too.

>>276 Mochi only received one hat from the members and staff, while Yuri-chan received scented candles from everyone and an additional gift from Nana. I wonder if what she received from Nana is a secret lol

I rented it today, and when I checked it, there was an application form for the advance reservation inside.

Who is O-san? If you mean Furui-san (Hirohito Furui), whose real name is Mr. Wang, then I know him...

>>283 Mochi also received Happy Turn rice crackers and a Yoshinoya beef bowl lol By the way, why would anyone be embarrassed to wear a hat in public? lol

Nana and Yuri-chan feel like they could make a real-life version of “Peony and Rose.”

>>283 There's no way they would publish something like Nana's gift to Yuri-chan in the newsletter. There are many members under 18 too.

>>288 Good point lol lol

Nana-sama seems like the type who really would give something outrageous, which would be a headache lol lol

The person from >>137 also wrote that the second half of the chorus of “Ai ni Niteru” sounds like some song, but they can't remember which one, and it's bothering them. If anyone knows, please tell me.

By the way, in the photos from the “Elysium” PV, did they capture Nana-san's bra strap?

>>292 We need to verify this immediately. Upload it to YouTube.

Who is that guy who started a thread on the horse-racing board? lol

Does the beginning of the chorus of “Koi no Aima ni” sound a lot like “Holy ground”?

>>292 Isn't that a camisole strap?

The newsletter finally arrived.

Lately, because her voice has become rougher and heavier, even fast, lighthearted songs (not “cheap,” that's not what I mean) no longer feel lighthearted. It's too monotonous, so I wish there were more variation in her voice. I'm secretly hoping for songs like “Spiral” or “Housekiuo” (even though the lyrics are heavy). I also hope the next album includes a song in triple meter.

Yuri-chan isn't a machine, so she can't produce that many different voices.

>>248 AZUKI Nana is an old hag.

This time it's a lottery—thank goodness. After all, people can cheat in activities like quizzes.

>>275 It's a story about bringing PCs and the internet closer to the real world. Since it's a little difficult, I think it's an anime adults can enjoy more. If you're familiar with PCs, the details are more interesting. Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist) definitely has a bit of a fujoshi vibe.

Yurippe, as expected Yarippe, Yurippa

What kind of email did you receive? It said there's an additional event tomorrow. Apparently Yurippe and the others will be handing out stickers both today and tomorrow. Lucky for everyone who's going. But there are no handshakes. Does that mean touching is prohibited? I'm dying lol

Yurippe is so cute, Yurippe. Even though she's flat-chested.

Anyone with the taste to listen to Gane-crap probably isn't popular, is it? lol You people are disgusting lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

The album is so unbelievably bad that it can only be used as a crow deterrent lol The very existence of Gane-crap is industrial waste, isn't it? lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol (pugara)

>>281 I've already seen that one (^ω^) Are there any others besides DEEN and Pamela? lol

Yurippe brought to orgasm by the old man's divine hand.

>>306-307 GARNET makes rare high-art music in the Japanese music scene, and people who understand music rate it highly. It's only natural that an amateur like you, satisfied with ordinary, mediocre pop songs found everywhere and ignorant about music, can't understand it.

>>306 Just knowing about GARNET makes you a disgusting member of the same species yourself.

Please post an update from the event.

I really envy GARNET fans who live in the Kansai area.

I went to the event. Yurippe personally handed me the sticker gift. But the sticker looked cheap, like it had been scanned and printed from a computer. Well, I'll keep it as a souvenir...

>>314 I'm so jealous I could almost kill you (´;ω;｀)

>>314 You must have smelled Yurippe properly, checked out her cleavage, and then shaken her hand, right?

I'm so jealous of Kansai... What was Yurippe wearing?

If Yurippe shook my hand, I'd rush straight to the bathroom while the sensation was still lingering on my hand.

>>314 Whaaaat—you actually got it handed to you directly?! Damn, I should have gone. What a shame! From someone in Nara.

They should hold some kind of event in Tokyo too.

Long time no see, everyone (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ I went to the event today. Yurippe complimented my handmade GARNET T-shirt (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ Yurippe was so cute (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ By the way, I shook her hand with the hand I had used to masturbate and that was covered in semen (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ I'm going to masturbate again with that hand (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ

How nostalgic... Hey.

Test.

By the way, are they actually holding the live-DVD viewing party?

>>317 It's the outfit from the PV. This was the closest I've ever seen Yurippe, so I'm really happy. I can live off this afterglow alone today. >>321 Oh, so it was you—the person Yurippe spoke to in the front row lol Don't lie, there were no handshakes. I was too nervous when receiving the sticker, so I couldn't get Yurippe to speak to me orz

>>321 You're a pervert, but you aren't a liar, are you? Don't lie. By the way, it's because people like you that handshakes have been banned! If you want to touch your dick, go ahead, just keep quiet.

Today's Beckham He broke his leg again and is using crutches—I'm dying lol

What does Elysium mean?

Is the sticker gift for everyone who went? Also, when you say it was the PV outfit, which PV was it from?

>>329 Everyone got one. Yurippe handed them out personally, along with a word of thanks from her. The outfit was the one from the “Hana wa Saite” PV. She was so cute that I was unbearably nervous lol

Was her hair in a ponytail, or was it all down?

>>330 I'm so jealous, hey. Why do I live in a place like Kanto? orz

>>331 It was in a ponytail. I was hoping she'd wear it all down, but she was still cute.

>>330 Didn't anyone secretly shake her hand or anything? When you say the PV outfit, do you mean the black one?

>>328 It means paradise or a utopia.

>>334 Since handshakes were prohibited, I don't think anyone shook her hand. The outfit was the black top and red skirt from the PV.

Beckham lol

I'm going to Kyoto tomorrow too. I want to see Yurippe live again. As for the sticker, I guess it's out of the question (you can't get one without buying the CD).

I heard she's appearing in a yukata tomorrow! They hinted that O-san and Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) might come before, but in the end they didn't... But the talk segment was interesting! The 18:00 session was livelier.

>>339 What did they talk about in the 18:00 session?

>>334 Wasn't her chest made to look huge? Since it was that outfit, were her arms sheer? Did you see any cleavage when she bowed or anything?

>>341 It wasn't huge, but it was beautiful. The sleeves weren't completely sheer. I was a little curious about the cleavage too, but even from that close I ultimately couldn't see it lol

>>342 Was the neckline cut very low? The neckline on that PV outfit doesn't look very low.

>>343 No, no. Besides, they wouldn't do anything that daring at an event. There are plenty of perverts, after all lol

Was the skirt long?

If I could get a sticker from Nana while she was wearing a yukata, I'd even take an overnight bus there right now.

It was a long skirt. Come to think of it, you don't often see Yurippe in a miniskirt. When she appeared on “Yume Mita Ato de” on Music Station, her skirt was a little shorter, and during the seated chat segment you could see a bit of her thighs.

Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto) appeared too, right? What was Mochi doing during that time? lol But everyone probably only watched Yurippe, so I'm jealous of those who went. So, what was the talk like?

>>347 Did anyone shout something like “Yurippe, I love you” while receiving it? I feel like there must have been at least one embarrassing guy like that.

>>348 Mochi was bowing to the fans next to Yurippe. I forgot to bow to Mochi lol I'm really sorry. The content was roughly: a question segment (selecting a few from questions collected in advance), and a question-and-answer session with the host, that sort of thing.

>>349 Everyone was very polite. But quite a few people paused briefly and said something to Yurippe or Mochi. Yurippe and Mochi smiled and responded.

>>342 If the neckline isn't cut very low, then even if you stare, you shouldn't be able to see any cleavage.

Go, Mr. Okamoto!

When I was receiving the sticker, I saw Yurippe's bra strap lol

>>333 Thanks. I suppose wearing it all down would feel a little awkward.

>>325>>326 Ugh... I've been found out ;; It was prohibited, and I wanted to force a handshake... but I was too nervous to do it... Yurippe really is too cute. Even when she was right in front of me, I still got nervous;;

If there's another event like this, I'll make another T-shirt and wear it there (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ This time I'll make it say “I LOVE Yurippe” (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ And I'll line up immediately, right at the front as the first person (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ

You're still alive, huh, huff huff.

I heard there's a talk show in Kyoto tomorrow too. Go lol lol

What was Yurippe wearing at the in-store event? How much skin was showing? How low was the neckline?

Yurippe imitated Nobuyo Oyama saying, “Translation Konnyaku~” Okamocchi is called “Nishi-nii” (Big Brother Hitoshi) by his niece. They originally planned to include many older songs in this tour, but based on today's survey of songs people wanted to hear, they may revise it toward coupling songs. According to Yurippe, “Jewel Fish” is difficult (so maybe they won't perform it live anymore?). If they were to do covers... Yurippe: Beyoncé, Miyuki Nakajima, Yuming Okamocchi: Céline Dion, Masaharu Fukuyama (he wants to be cheered for like that) Okamocchi's new home's kitchen uses gas rather than induction. He says food cooked with gas tastes better, so apparently they eat right there in the kitchen. They plan to hold a GARNET Cup bowling event, and later also said they want to take purikura photos of Yurippe, which she is currently into. That's enough to make you feel full already, isn't it?

There were more middle-aged men at the 16:00 session. The 18:00 session felt like it had more young people. Maybe it was because the host was an ordinary person (a Being staff member?). They weren't very good at picking up the conversation, so it felt a little awkward. Mr. Hirohito Furui was especially interesting. As the night grew darker, he started making cold jokes, but the young musicians couldn't keep up, and he seemed a little depressed afterward lol Poor, hardworking Okamocchi tried desperately to pick them up.

I really can't understand why anyone would get excited over an ordinary-looking woman in her thirties.

I want to hear Yurippe sing Miyuki Nakajima lol

>>363 Because she's a virgin.

>>362 Imagining the old man's sighing face is so cute.

>>360 You again.

>>361 She won't sing “Jewel Fish” anymore?~ (；´Д｀)

>>363 If you're a man, that's a little sad; if you're a woman, it can't be helped. You probably also can't understand the appeal of someone described as “ugly-cute.” Yurippe's appeal is different from that. It's true that by the standards of someone appearing in the media, she's ordinary-looking.

By the way, people who can judge Yurippe's worth from only one angle—her appearance—are rather pitiful, whether their judgment is positive or negative.

Exactly. She's cute and beautiful, a virgin, a god-level composer, and has an amazing voice. She's already perfect. >>363 has something wrong with his eyes. Anyway, he should go see an eye doctor. Anyway, Yurippe is my wife now. I won't let anyone else have her (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ

Is Yurippe “Yuruppe” (loose)? Or is she “Kitsuppe” (tight)?

>>361 I feel so full I'm about to throw up. Someone in Kyoto, please write a report too.

At yesterday's in-store event, was Yurippe's outfit something with a fairly low neckline, like at the 2005 concert or this year's ZARD third-anniversary concert?

My postcard saying I won the lottery still hasn't arrived. Is that okay?

Today is the general ticket-sale date (^ω^ )

I got a good seat in a Yahoo Auctions bidding war.

>>377　　Congratulations (´･ω･｀)

>>370 I'm not saying you can only judge someone's worth by their appearance. I'm simply saying that, purely in terms of appearance, there's nothing that makes me sexually excited. I think her composing is excellent, but I can't understand people saying they want to have sex with her or that she's definitely a virgin. >>371 Don't assume that everyone will find her attractive just because this is a GARNET CROW thread.

>>379 Go get 'em, morality police!

>>379 Wasn't your opening statement a little provocative...? Saying things like “a woman in her thirties” (´;ω;)

>>379 Sensible people, go home.

>>379 What an embarrassing person lol Why are you pretending to be serious on 2ch?

Okay, I'm going to FamilyMart to buy tickets.

I got the tickets. Second row on the second floor—great seats.

I just reserved the tickets by phone.

We get to see Mochi in a yukata today. I'm jealous of people in Osaka.

>>387　 　　 　(￣_￣)　 　.ノ^　yヽ、 　ヽ,,ﾉ==l　ノ 　　/　l | ~""""""~"""~"""~"

(´･ω･)　 　.ノ^　yヽ、 　ヽ,,ﾉ==l　ノ 　　/　l | ~""""""~"""~"""~"

An old man should look great in a yukata.

>>384 Isn't that the fried chicken place?

I tried proper headphones for the first time, and the sound quality is unbelievably amazing aaaaaaaaa! I'm hearing sounds I couldn't hear before lol lol

Yurippe's full lips instinctively make me feel sexually excited.

The PV for the new song is amazing. Yurippe is so cute. I don't care that she's 32.

>>393 Nana-sama can do whatever she wants with Yurippe's lips, right?

Why is the GARNET thread created on the horse-racing board so lively? Still, it's lucky that most of the replies are well-intentioned.

Yurippe in a yukata (´Д｀;)ﾊｧﾊｧ

>>396 Ask >>177.

>>379 Honestly, don't you want to have sex with AZUKI Nana?

I don't feel like licking Azuki's anus, but I do feel like licking Yurippe's anus.

Yuri-chan (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist) makes cute moaning sounds, doesn't she? And she has a small butt, right?

Anal fetishists are disgusting.

Apart from the “director” title, I have no interest in Yuri-chan.

>399 Honestly, I like AZUKI (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist), but lately I've realized again that she's no longer young, OTZ

I went to the talk show in Kyoto (・ω・ ) Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto) said his goal for next year is to make a solo album.

When he handed me the CD personally, I told Mochi, “I'm really looking forward to your solo album,” and he gave a wry smile lol The conversation wasn't much different from yesterday's, which was a little disappointing...

GIZA: “You're free to make a solo album, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will be released.”

>>407 Mochi: “Wh—how could this be...”

Yuri-chan's yukata was beautiful. She said she wants to go hang gliding, so don't do anything too reckless. I got to talk to Yuri-chan for the first time? It was so moving. I was incredibly surprised by what she said to me.

I never expected Yuri-chan to be so beautiful in person, or Mochi to be so handsome in person.

>>409 Reported.

Mochi in person really is five heads tall. I was shocked.

>>412 No, it wasn't like that, was it? Probably... (ﾟωﾟ;)

Still, Mochi really is a rain man. It was so hot, but suddenly it started drizzling. Thanks to Yuri-chan, the rain stopped quickly. She's a goddess.

Ms. Mai Kuraki.

The initial announcement said they might run out of stickers. But when they actually started handing them out, they announced that buying another CD would let you line up and receive another one. That desperate behavior was a little off-putting. Are sales really that bad this time??

It was the money-grubbing fangirl's lousy idea.

>>416 Amazing lol

The top ten on the weekly chart is probably out of reach, but I at least want first-week sales to break 10,000. They're trying so hard lol lol

I like Mochi's solo work, so I'm really looking forward to his solo album. Even though Nana is writing the lyrics for both, it'll be interesting to see a different side from Yuri-chan.

Hand-delivery sales with sales as the sole objective lol They really are a money-grubbing band~ At least hold a handshake event for Yuri-chan (´・ω・｀)

B (the company) must be in a pretty difficult situation itself. If it's just GIZA, GARNET CROW is about the only act that can make money, so they're being forced to work harder than ever.

If they want money that badly, why not release a swimsuit photobook of Yuri-chan?

>>423 It should be a nude photobook.

>>424 Go die.

It needs to have some teasing, with things partially hidden. After all, a school swimsuit would be best.

I feel like a compilation of the music videos could sell...

I want to see Yuri-chan's yukata. >>422 If the company really is being poorly managed, could somewhere acquire it... B is also involved in regional real-estate development. If you include efforts that could revitalize local communities and consider everything together, perhaps it would be less likely to go under and easier to market itself as a “Kansai music label” if it became part of the local Hankyu Hanshin Holdings group. This is just speculation. Since it's an unlisted company, it has few stakeholders, so the problem is probably that the people at the top can do whatever they want. Right now, B seems to be barely holding on thanks to B'z, Kuraki, Aiuchi, and GARNET CROW. If its real-estate and other side businesses bring in substantial income, that's one thing, but I don't know how much those side businesses can sustain it during this recession. Kuraki and Aiuchi also seem to have lost the energy they had in their heyday, and it's hard to say how long GARNET CROW can keep going. Maybe it would actually be more stable if they joined some major group.

What was Yuri-chan's yukata like—what color and so on? Was it like the yukata look they showed in the newsletter before?

Rather than listening to junk like GARNET CROW, I'd rather listen to anime songs lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol (pugara)

Rather than listening to junk like GARNET CROW, I'd rather listen to denpa songs lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol (pugara)

>>428 Join a major group? Something like merging with Kome Kome Club? That would be fine too, wouldn't it?

Even if you could get a second sticker, no idiot is going to buy two copies of the same CD lol

>>423-425 Yuri-chan probably wouldn't work for that. At most, people would say, “Is she a knockoff of Yuri Nakamura?” Pretty Nana-chan would be better.

I like Nana, but there's no need to see a nude photobook of her lol

>>428 Even though Aiuchi is celebrating her 10th anniversary this year, she only held a one-day concert. Does that mean she didn't make any money? Given their current drawing power, it's probably GARNET CROW >> Aiuchi. So they may be adding concert dates little by little while watching the advance reservations, trying to earn at least a little. Hankyu Hanshin Holdings is ultimately impossible, I suppose. If they sold off only B's Kansai division, I doubt even Yoshimoto would buy it. After the trouble with Komuro, they probably won't buy it anyway lol If they sold the entire B company together with B'z and Kuraki, a major company might buy it, but who would want GARNET CROW or GIZA?

Is the new song preview ready yet?

I feel like there are people who would say, “I want Yuri-chan so badly I'd pay for her myself.”

Nana-chan is beautiful. She gets me hard.

Mr. Furui's (Hirohito Furui) jokes are so cute lol “Walls have ears, Claude Chilly.” The host also said that Mochi in a yukata had a nice, charming Showa-era literary-figure feel. It was great. Apparently Mochi's niece looks like Saki Aibu. She must be very cute. I like Aibu, so I'm a little jealous lol By the way, Yuri-chan in a yukata was so cute. Apparently it was her first time wearing a yukata this year. Her back as she finally walked off the stage was sexy. I want to scoop goldfish with Yuri-chan. Maybe because today's host was better, the two of them seemed more comfortable talking than at yesterday's Nihonbashi event.

So there are still tickets left in Osaka. Is the fact that the entire venue is standing-room-only unpopular?

>>440 What was Yuri-chan's yukata like—what color and so on? Was it like the yukata look they showed in the newsletter before?

>>442 The one in the newsletter was more reddish, right? I remember today's one having a white background with a pattern. Her hair was tied up again, as expected.

>>428 Strictly speaking, there's also the band Breakers.

It's hard to describe, but I think it was mainly white and black, accented with flowers, perhaps yellow ones... It was roughly like the one in the newsletter. Okamochi wore the hat he received as a birthday present and glasses, along with a simple yukata. Maybe because it was so hot, he kept fanning himself with a fan.

Speaking of kimono, I suddenly remembered: Does Nana really hate festivals and things like that? Judging from the lyrics of “Matsuri no Jikan.”

>>445 I don't know how to describe the yukata pattern either lol Thanks for adding that. I'd forgotten the one in the newsletter lol Which issue of the newsletter was it?

*7 *13 *15 *15＼*16　GARNET CROW “Hana wa Saite Tada Yurete” ...Seriously, predict what position it will take on the weekly chart (´･ω･`)

This is really dire. Even with an event, it has had absolutely no effect? Can we not even hope for tomorrow's chart?

Has the event's effect been included? Will tomorrow count as two days' worth?

>>446 I think she hates them. Because after a festival ends, you feel empty. She probably hates the feeling of being suddenly pulled back into reality. After all, something like a festival will be forgotten by next week.

I remember she appeared on Music Station for “Bokura Dake no Mirai.” At the part near the end of the song where she goes “Haa—” Yuri-chan faced the camera, moved her mouth away from the microphone, and gave a close-up with her mouth half-open. It was on screen for several seconds. Wasn't that incredibly erotic? Don't you think it was pretty erotic for Yuri-chan to make that expression on national television?

Yuri-chan was so cute when she got the song title wrong and called it “Hana wa Yurete Tada Yurete.” The host teased her, saying, “Then it would just keep swaying nonstop,” lol For “the food you most want to eat right now,” yesterday's answer was Genghis Khan barbecue, and today's was Yukimi Daifuku. I really hope Yuri-chan marries Mochi. I think they suit each other. Though when you get right down to it, maybe I just don't want her to marry some complete unknown lol

>>443 It's a yukata, but she wore a ponytail?

People who have known her for a long time should know that Yuri-chan is actually already married.

The newsletter still isn't hereーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

>>454 Yes. But it wasn't one of those bouncy ponytails.

>>456 What address do you have listed? Shouldn't you contact them about it?

“Ai ni Niteru” (・∀・) Great!!!

Why can they never break past around number 10?

>>459 Exactly. “Ai ni Niteru” is good. With GARNET, the B-side is still better than the A-side.

>>461 > The B-side is better than the A-side. Yurippe was really bothered by that line lol She said, “Ah... does that mean you don't like the A-side...?”

>>461 The guitar by Mochi in the intro is cool too (*´∀｀*)

>>462 Seriously? lol I prefer the A-side this time. No, really, Yuri-chan.

>>464 It's too late now lol It seems the news has already reached her ears through various channels.

These two songs also feel like they go well with “Yume no Hitotsu.” The next album seems like it will have a great atmosphere, doesn't it? (・∀・)

>>453 I also think it would be good if Yuri-chan married Mochi. I genuinely think they suit each other. But Mochi seems like the type who would marry an ordinary, plain civilian.

>>467 Come to think of it, on the α-STATION radio program that aired before today's talk show, they mentioned that when they went to Tokyo, Mochi and Yuri-chan went to a summer festival together. They said Yuri-chan kept ordering Mochi around.

>>462 I know lol I was there too lol But really, it can't be helped. Compared with “Ai ni Niteru,” “Hana wa Saite Tada Yurete” is a better name for a single. A good title should sell better, right?

>>467 Yuri-chan got pregnant and married right at the beginning of her career.

Ah, sorry. It was “Hana wa Saite Tada Yurete” lol Isn't the title of this single not eye-catching enough? I can never remember it lol

>>468 Please give us the details. Come to think of it, I once found a blog by someone who said they encountered Yuri-chan and Mochi in Tokyo. It said something like, “They were in Tokyo for the ‘Doing all right’ promotional campaign, and I ran into them in front of a Starbucks.”

FM-FUJI “FEEL SO MUSE” http://feel.fmfuji.co.jp/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/p2009_0820_205314-300x225.jpg α-STATION “α-DAYLIGHT CALL” http://fm-kyoto.jp/blog/daylight_call/ga-netto.JPG

>>472 It came up while they were talking about Yuri-chan happily dragging the staff around to shop during the short breaks in her promotional events. 　　　 　(´･ω･) “We also went to a festival in Tokyo, and I made Mochi stand in line.” 　　DJ “Did the two of you go together?” 　(￣_￣) “The manager and I were standing in line here, so I told Okamochi to buy chorizo, 　　　　　　and bring back some tacos too! Something like that.” 　(´･ω･) “He said, ‘The line is so long!’ and I said, ‘It's fine, just go! 　　　　　　We'll meet up again later!’” 　　DJ “Mr. Okamoto is really being worked hard, isn't he?” 　(´･ω･) “The manager was also panicking, saying, ‘We're running out of time! We're running out of time!’” 　　DJ “You two seem to be enjoying summer quite a lot~” That was roughly how it went.

Apparently a program called something like “F no Honoo” previously revealed the cover of “STAY.” Can anyone give us the details?

I got a ticket for Osaka! It's my first time seeing them live, so I'm really looking forward to it, even though I'm going alone. Do any of you have groups of friends who are all GARNET CROW fans?

>>440 Mr. Furui's cold jokes... Could he be planning to perform them at the countdown concert?

>>474 That's something a woman with a good personality would never do.

Honestly, I think the lead single, the double A-side, and both songs on the bonus PV are all pretty mediocre this time. Does anyone else feel the same?

Yuri-chan in a yukata was cute. When she got the song title wrong, she was sweating all over—enough for sweat to drip down. The outdoor venue may have made her nervous; her expression looked a little gloomy. During the final fan-service segment, she smiled at everyone, but depending on the person, her expression sometimes hadn't quite switched over from the previous person.

So, is Yuri-chan's face okay?

>>473 Yuri-chan's face is so small~

Her face was fine. I was just shocked because it was the first time I'd seen her sweat that much.

Poor Yuri-chan—Nana turned down her invitation on the grounds that she was making tonkotsu ramen soup and couldn't meet her lol

The man who hosted the talk event had absolutely no presence. He read stiffly from a script and his reactions were poor. It felt like a rehearsal for a fan-club event. It makes me worried about the future. Saida was still better.

>>484 Apparently she said something like, “I lost to tonkotsu soup.”

>>474 Mochi is a total masochist, so of course he would obediently go buy it lol lol

>>484>>486 Wait lol What is that? lol lol Please give us the details.

>>485 Saida's work has probably decreased. Was he so jealous that he came to post on 2ch? lol

>>478 I really think so. I hate people like that.

Sorry, the wording in the >>474 section was a little inappropriate... It didn't feel that bad at all. They were laughing and saying it as a joke, half kidding. So what I meant was that Yuri-chan and Mochi were having fun together. I caused a misunderstanding (´･ω･｀)

>>480 Did the expression and sluggishness carry over? Is Yuri-chan okay?

>>489

>>484>>486 Where did this happen? lol

They charge 2,800 yen for something that's supposed to be free!

ZARD's MFM collection is pretty good... (･ω･`;)

>>488 >>488 At the Kyoto event, when asked to describe Nana in one sentence, this is what Yuri-chan said: “She's a mystery; I can't really understand her. I finally managed to get in touch with her, and then I found out she'd gone traveling by herself. She said she couldn't meet me because she was starting to make tonkotsu soup from scratch. I lost to tonkotsu soup.” I don't remember it exactly, but she said something roughly like that lol

>>497 Nana-sama is even more free-spirited than I imagined lol

>>497 GJ!! Yuri-chan is really pitiful in this story lol lol I love Nana-sama like this lol

Whether it's Nakamura ordering Okamoto around as an errand boy or AZUKI cutting off contact and running off on her own, are the female members of this band too self-centered?

There was a self-centered woman who took a joke seriously.

I want to be the number-one customer at Nana's ramen shop!!

Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) might be on a southern island right now.

If first-week sales fall below 10,000 copies, she'll be an artist with nonperforming assets.

I want to beat up Yuri-nee (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist).

Question: ① How do you read 小鳥遊? ② How do you read 九? Can I catch up with Yuri-nee, the kanji expert?

① Takanashi ② Ichijiku Yuri-nee only taught me that yesterday.

>>506 Obviously they're read “Kotoriyū” and “Kyū,” you idiot.

>>474 Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto) really is that type lol It's not just Yuri-nee; the other women probably order him around as an errand boy too. But when people are genuinely close, they actually can't act that way. Come to think of it, this kind of relationship works best between spouses or couples. Mochi is ultimately a dark-hearted person with a bad personality too, so they're even lol

Well, Okamoto's personality isn't great either... Is Furui (Hirohito Furui) the only normal one?

Putting that aside, could Nana-sama actually have a huge chest? Does anyone know her cup size?

GARNET CROW's spectacular flop, the end of GIZA.

These people too lol Try fixing your own personalities first.

10 10 12 15 16↓21　GARNET CROW “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu Keredo” *8 *9 11 14 19↓21　GARNET CROW “Yume no Hitotsu” *5 *6 11 13 13↓21　GARNET CROW “Hyakunen no Kodoku” *6 *6 10 12 13↓21　GARNET CROW “Doing all right” *7 13 15 15 16＼18　GARNET CROW “Hana wa Saite Tada Yurete” It's all because they held an event that I couldn't reserve a reserved seat for Sunday!

>>514 Amazing lol

Are the Nagoya tickets sold out already?

At the talk shows on Saturday and Sunday, the host completely ignored all the moments where they clearly should have made a joke... I think GARNET should be teased more.

■8/27 (Thu) 25:35–25:40 NEW!! UHB Hokkaido Cultural Broadcasting “Mitchubachi no Kore Mite!” Guest appearance

>>497 Has Nana granny gotten tired of Yuri-nee...? Still, tonkotsu soup really is important.

>>506 Details, please.

>>519 She probably just wanted some time alone. Or maybe it was that.

She even makes tonkotsu soup herself~ The newsletter also says not to compromise when it comes to food. She really is particular about what she eats.

>>520 One of the host's questions was, “What is something you found out for the first time recently?” Yuri-nee answered that she was surprised to learn there were surnames with such unusual readings. That's what she said. For what it's worth, Mochi answered, “I lost about 2 kilograms this summer.”

>>518 I'm from Hokkaido. I'll definitely watch it. How many people here are from Hokkaido?

She did lose weight, but she said it was somewhere between her highest weight and her weight at debut. I heard Nana-sama is going to make ramen starting with a whole chicken!

>>524 It'll definitely be someone reading from a script without any emotion, right? lol

>>524 There are! I'm happy that GARNET's ties with Hokkaido have been getting stronger lately. We used to be left out all the time. By the way, the newsletter finally arrived today. Is Hokkaido really this slow, or am I the only one?

>>436 If they joined Hankyu Hanshin Holdings, it would be fun if new songs by the artists under Being could become station departure melodies lol

>>527 I'm from Hokkaido too, and my newsletter arrived on Friday. Newsletters from other bands always take a week, but GARNET's usually arrives in about four or five days. Come to think of it, it's not just GARNET—the artists under GIZA have been coming to Hokkaido more often too. Honestly, I had already half given up on seeing live performances here...

I want to dissect Yuri-nee's poop and carefully check what she ate.

Is it really that obscure to call Yuri-nee “Pe-sama”? I saw a fan blog shouting, “Don't imitate me!!”

That person is crazy... By the way, it's really disgusting...

>>525 Cutting up a chicken... Don't tell me she's even going to butcher it herself...? Nana-sama probably isn't a B cup... but a B cup would be fine too.

The employee blog has been updated!

The album cover is being revealed tomorrow... But I'm not a member, so I can't see it lol lol lol lol

If Yuri-nee debuted as an enka singer for a solo career, it wouldn't feel out of place at all.

Tomorrow (8/24) they'll finally reveal the cover photo... (´∀｀)

>>537 Are you living in yesterday?

Surrounded by three people with terrible personalities, Furui must have suffered a lot orz

>>523 GJ! It really is a rare surname. You can't figure out how to read that one. Lately, I think Mochi looks thinner too.

I can't believe “Fall in Life” is actually an upbeat song. What a surprise lol lol lol lol lol Even though the title sounds like “falling in life” (；´∀｀) I hope the cover is a divine masterpiece like “THE TWILIGHT VALLEY.” At the very least, please don't make it a cover split into four panels with the members like “Crystallize” lol

I got tickets for the concert. If my queue number is early, can I still get a good spot in the unreserved seating area even if I arrive just before the doors open? What exactly is the queue number?

>>542 You will enter in order of your queue number.

Please give me Yurippe's menstrual number!!

>>541 Doesn't “fall in life” mean “falling into life” or “being born”? Though it's hard to say without looking at the lyrics.

>>543 Thanks.

Is the story that the old man left the group last March a rumor?

What does everyone think about GARNET CROW having once been accused of plagiarism?

“Kibonnu!” I haven't seen someone type that expression so boldly in ages. I burst out laughing. I'm embarrassed for you just reading it. I'm actually looking forward to the MFM GARNET CROW commemorative book.

Number 18.

The article on the employee blog is kind of infuriating lol

Is the cover photo ready yet~?

>>531 Is that the blog about Yuri and Nana being a yuri couple?

>>531 Is this the post from the 23rd? http://blog.livedoor.jp/m127/archives/2009-08.html?p=2

The official diary has been updated.

>>555 What exactly were the members' shocking comments?

“music freak magazine Flash Back GARNET CROW 10th Memories” has been confirmed for release. It says it can be purchased at the concert venue. Can people without tickets just go there to buy the book?

Number 14, 8,940 copies. It's over.

>>557 If it's at Zepp, it'll definitely be inside the ticketed area, so probably not.

>>557 I don't know how it'll work, but it looks like you can buy it by mail order too. http://www.mfmagazine.com/

There are about 9,000 fan-club members, but the first-week sales of both single versions combined are only 8,940 copies. I'm shocked!!!

>>559 Thanks, >>560 Does the packaging look ordinary~? I want to buy it secretly without my family noticing.

As a member, I have to ask: has the album cover photo been revealed yet?

>>562 The cover is just a simple design made by piecing together the covers they've used so far, so it should be fine.

I picked up the “Hana wa Saite Tada Yurete” I had preordered at a rental shop.

Sales look pretty dismal. The ads are airing in good time slots and the song isn't bad, but longtime fans probably think they can just wait for the album, while the tie-in probably won't attract that many new fans.

I never buy the singles, but they've fallen below 10,000 copies... I always just buy the albums, but I canceled my preorder. Does anyone want my Namba Hatch ticket? I don't even feel like going anymore.

>>567 Do you hate them because they're not selling well...? orz Then go become a fan of a currently popular artist. Instead of being a GARNET CROW fan, become a Girl Next Door fan or something.

GARNET CROW is actually better off not being popular. It's enough if a small group of people (members or secret fans) like them. If they became too popular, it would be a turnoff.

>>567 I don't like people who are that quick to change their allegiance♪

>>570 I burst out laughing lol lol

Whatever this time. “Elysium” is great, so the album should sell well, right?

The single aside, the speed at which tickets for this tour sold out is incredible, isn't it? Even though there are dates in every region, just think about the capacity of each venue...

>>558 ...I didn't buy it myself.

By the way, where did you find the figure of 8,940 copies for the single's first week?

The sales ranking for the singles is “Doing,” “Hyakunen no Kodoku,” “Yume no Hitotsu,” and “Hana wa Saite,” but my personal preference ranking is exactly the reverse lol

>>564 Regarding GARNET, my family really disapproves orz I wish it could be mailed in an ordinary envelope.

>>577 I can somehow understand that. When I go to an event, I also lie to my family and say I'm going to meet a friend lol It's not that my family dislikes GARNET. I just can't bring myself to say it.

>>577 > My family really disapproves orz Why? I can understand if you personally find it hard to tell your family.

The first week has finally fallen below 10,000... Owada orz

>>554 It's an unbearably embarrassing blog overall. That “nyanyayu” expression is really gross.

My mom said she hates her voice... I'm furious.

Her singing isn't particularly good, and the lyrics really are hard to make out, but I still like her. GARNET is the only band whose CDs I buy.

>>577 Last year, I bought the ZARD MFM collection by mail order, and I remember it arriving in an envelope.

Even when we're watching a live DVD, my mom insists that Okamocchi's voice sounds better... She also says, “The keyboard player is cute!”

I get by completely as a secret fan. Even if I tried to force the subject, the other person wouldn't be interested anyway. I used to try to get my friends and family interested in the band by making them listen, but eventually realized it was a waste of effort. Since then, even if someone brings up GARNET, I don't join in; I just listen superficially. I think, “You aren't interested anyway, so don't casually throw their name around,” lol I feel like I have a pretty unpleasant personality lol

>>581 The “mom” role really is something a lot of people casually criticize.

Typo. >>582

What does CD sales have to do with whether I personally like GARNET CROW? I think they should be able to sell better. If a famous artist said they liked GARNET CROW, they'd probably become popular lol

>>589 Precisely because we like them and think the music they make is good, we want them to sell well. Fans naturally feel that way. Or rather, we want them to receive more recognition... Personally, though, I don't care that much. Maybe it's because discussions about sales for other artists have already worn me out lol

Still, if they don't sell a certain amount, it might affect their activities. I hope they'll work a little harder. Sorry for the consecutive posts.

>>582 Same here. My mother and younger sister really hate them. Even if I play the tiniest bit of GARNET-related music, they say things like, “Don't play stuff from that disgusting band, it'll get moldy!” or “They're doing activities even though they don't sell?” They seem to dislike her voice and appearance. But it's enough that I like her. I've stopped caring lately and decided to do what I want. >>589 Come to think of it, I really have never heard an artist say they like GARNET.

>>589 But I don't really want them to become popular for that reason... (´･ω･｀)

NAO. seems a lot like Nana.

Is it a rumor that Aiba from Arashi said he likes GARNET?

>>579 I've never brought it up myself. Of course I can't say it out loud. If they overhear GARNET playing in my room, or see a CD I accidentally forgot to put away, they scold me terribly... I really feel like this isn't the kind of music most people can accept right away, so I don't tell anyone that I'm a GARNET fan. If I make them listen, they'll only say bad things, and I don't want to hear that, so I'd rather secretly enjoy it on my own... But it's still hard to hide it from family lol >>584 Thanks. Maybe I'll buy one too.

>>592 > Even if I play the tiniest bit of GARNET-related music, they say, “Don't play stuff from that disgusting band, it'll get moldy!” That's too much! Way too much! orz They don't need to go that far...

My parents watched the pitifully few times they appeared on television, and said they dislike her because the vocalist has a blank expression... I really want them to see Yuri-nee's real personality in private (｀д´) I've gradually stopped caring what the people around me think, but I still can't bring myself to join the fan club...

At first I also thought the vocalist's voice sounded unpleasant, but you get used to a voice after hearing it a few times. Why criticize the voice?

((；ω；｀)) sob

It's unbearable when an artist you like gets viciously criticized. So I try not to badmouth the artists other people like in front of them. Doesn't everyone feel that way...?

GARNET is unpopular with the general public. I canceled my album preorder and bought an Arashi greatest-hits album instead.

Where is the cover photo already~? (･∀･ )っ/凵⌒☆ﾁﾝﾁﾝ

The voice is an element that aggravates the illness.

Why is the cover photo taking so long? I really want to see it soon.

>>596 Oh, I see (´･ω･`) Everyone is so mean orz In my family, even when they're talking about other artists, they say things like “I hate the voice, I hate the songs, I hate the looks,” and so on, but they still acknowledge that I like them. They even ask whether I'm going to the concert and what I think of the new song lol

Come to think of it, when Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist) sang “Yume Mita Ato de” on Music Station, while she was talking with Tamo-san, I saw TOKIO sitting behind her laughing about something unrelated. I was so angry my intestines were tied in knots (´･ω･｀)

The cover is here.

Tsuyoshi Domoto likes Yurippe.

>>607 Nakamura was also paying close attention to the monitor.

Has Yurippe not wet herself in front of everyone yet~? (･∀･ )っ/凵⌒☆ﾁﾝﾁﾝ

GARNET's songs must be good. But if I'm at my parents' home, they'll definitely see the cover, and then say, “Oh~ so this is the kind of thing you like (･∀･) hehehe.” I feel like that would happen.

That Super Live appearance on Music Station was shocking. There was an obvious feeling that they didn't fit in, and the strange atmosphere when they started singing was painful to watch lol

In my family, my mother and grandmother actually became fans. They say the songs are good and the voice is good. For what it's worth, my grandmother seems to like Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto) lol

>>613 Did Spiral really say “space fried rice” back then?

>>614 Even your grandmother is a fan!! That's really impressive lol

http://www.fujitv.co.jp/bangumi/index2.html You can watch the Hokkaido Marathon trailer here. You can hear “ON THE WAY.”

I saw the “STAY” covers~ I was planning to buy First Press A, but I feel like A's cover is the most questionable... (・ω・｀;)

>>618 What does the A cover look like?

Wait lol lol C is impossible because its design is in the style of “Crystallize,” but A and B are both incredibly elaborate! A feels somewhat dreamlike... I had originally expected a cover with a night-sky background, but it really does have a “dawn” feeling, and the misty morning atmosphere is great! The lyric card isn't a single sheet of paper like “LOCKS”; it's a proper page-turning booklet, which is great!!!!

If GARNET CROW became popular too, would concert tickets become something like 15,000 yen? lol

>>558 Isn't that about the same as the number of members?

No, no. I canceled my album preorder because the co-op was selling an Arashi greatest-hits album at 5% off, so I bought that instead.

>>623 You don't need to report every little thing. Go be active in the Arashi thread, and don't come back here.

An Arashi-loving troll, or perhaps a tsundere who secretly loves GARNET more than anything.

Let's all go listen to Arashi.

Let's all pray that Yurippe wets herself.

Arashi's recent songs are high quality. GARNET's songs under B are low quality.

As expected of a troll, it's “Arashi”... Let's leave it at that.

Stop being a GARNET otaku and listen to Arashi!!

Typical troll. ARASHI.

Thanks for the attention-seeking performance.

I hope they sing an Arashi song.

Even if those Arashi people wet themselves, it wouldn't move anyone. Are you an idiot?

GARNET is treated so badly. They've released their 30th single and still get a lousy tie-in, and the album was delayed because of someone's greatest-hits release. Thomas seems to hate GARNET CROW.

>>635 The company is B-grade, so that's how it is.

Does the locomotive hate GARNET?

If they keep making songs that are only enough to satisfy their existing fans, they'll probably gradually fade away. The melodies and arrangements have all started to sound alike. This isn't good.

Thomas is clinging to Mr. ?? and abusing the position of Being president. Thomas's idea is to fire and ruin the artists with nonperforming assets, and invest the operating funds in Mr. ??. The money B'z earns is also invested in Mr. ??.

The members of Arashi were chosen by their agency. They weren't acting on their own wishes but were controlled by adults' orders, so I can't respect them.

Does “Masu○” and “Kura○” mean they're sleeping together? Ugh, disgusting.

>>639 Enough already. Go masturbate while listening to Arashi's new single.

Thomas also cast Mr. ?? in the movie version of Detective Conan. He didn't give the role to GARNET because he apparently hates them. Last year it was Nagato's decision; this year it was Thomas's decision.

I went to three stores, but none of them had the new song. If they don't stock it, of course it can't sell.

>>643 Next year, either Rina Aiuchi or GARNET is the established plan.

GARNET CROW's members are called a creative collective. They have their own willpower and sense of responsibility.

>642 You disgust me. Typical GARNET otaku. Why don't they appear on television? Normally, you get a performance fee for appearing on TV. Being doesn't get invited in the first place, so instead they pay the program a fee to appear. Business has been difficult lately, so they only let certain people appear.

For what it's worth, next year's Detective Conan movie will feature BREAKERZ. GARNET CROW has already passed its sell-by date.

>>640 GARNET is the same lol Yurippe originally wanted to be a vocalist too. But I still like them.

>>648 (ヾﾉ･∀･`) No, no. Apparently it will start from the opening theme soon. It's not BREAKERZ.

>>647 Goodbye (ﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉｼ　↓ GIZA Studio discussion by GIZA fans http://mamono.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/music/1097219128/101-200

Yurippe's singing ability has improved remarkably since around the Ninnaji performance. GARNET CROW is now poised for an opportunity to grow. They're watching for a chance to expand beyond the metropolitan areas.

Oh... because I want to watch Nakaken.

Yurippe, singing “Konna ni Soba ni Iru no ni~♪,” has such a charming and stable voice.

No one but Yurippe can sing “Marionette Fantasia.”

>>652 She's completely different from before Ninnaji. I wondered if it was just a fluke, but then she sang just as well on “Lets,” which surprised me.

Today's TV drama is disgusting. It makes me want to throw up. The patient Yokoyama is incredibly gross.

By the way, is it true that Nagato-san takes Yuri-san to dinners with important people and introduces her as the representative singer of our company?

People say the treatment is poor, but even if they do nothing, they'll be heavily promoted when their 10th anniversary arrives next year.

>>654 Yurippe really suits that song.

http://umaroda.jpn.org/cgi/up/img/umaroda9058.jpg

>>661 Thanks!! This cover photo is really good this time lol

Is Yurippe wearing Korean traditional clothing in First Press B?

>>661 GJ! It's better than “LOCKS.” That one... was really embarrassing lol

>>661 Thanks. It looks like a paranormal photograph.

>>661 GJ! Mochi on First Press A...

Number 14 on the weekly chart...

The Hokkaido Marathon ad aired! GARNET's song fits it better than I expected. Nice♪

Is A the one where she's feeding the little horse?

Why does GARNET CROW, whose first-week sales are under 10,000 copies, have to be heavily promoted? The impression GARNET otaku give is that they're extremely serious, with a laid-back, spaced-out quality like Azuki.

>>669 I see.

>>670 If Kuraki were still with GIZA, things could be even more laid-back.

Yurippe is still cute lol

I wonder how old she is.

When will priority ticket reservations for the countdown concert begin?

http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/51Ci3RN1BpL._SS500_.jpg http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/61LknPVK3zL._SS500_.jpg http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/51L9F5TOFzL._SS500_.jpg

>>676 Wow! It's huge.

>>670 What are you talking about? Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) is an extremely sharp and clever person. She spaces out because it's time to space out.

The price of First Press B is about the same at every store... Is everyone buying A?

Furui-san in First Press B lol lol lol lol

>>679 I'm buying B myself. Since A is discounted, there are probably many people buying it.

I'm planning to buy both A and B.

Nana-san's cool-guy aura is incredibly strong lol

Yurippe and Mochi look alike in the regular-edition photos; they look like siblings lol Is A more popular after all? I've already seen the PV for the single, so buying the album just for the PVs of the album tracks feels a little... I was originally planning to buy B. But should I buy both A and B? By the way, the release date is still a whole month away...

I'm really torn between A and B... You end up never watching DVDs like that anyway, so I guess I'll choose B (´･ω･) How many songs are included in different arrangements?

Yuri Nakamura is an adulterous woman.

Sorry, I figured out >>685 myself. I'm still going to agonize over it for a while.

The cover is nice! It has the aura of a classic album. I'm suddenly looking forward to it.

Nana-sama is really cool lol

>>684 They don't look alike at all!

Yurippe is so cute in First Press A. She somehow looks like her old face. Furui-san in the regular edition is incredibly handsome lol lol lol lol

The old man in First Press B is cool.

The old man in First Press B is wearing a tracksuit? Isn't that pretty unusual? He looks like an ordinary middle-aged man you could see anywhere lol lol And Mochi in B is looking this way lol lol

The old man's stance is too cool. He looks a little like Inaba from B'z.

People saying “Elysium” sounds a lot like Sound Horizon... are they idiots?

Furui-san is holding a glowing ball in B (>_<)

>>686 Give us the details.

>>551 I feel like I understand. It reminds me of the staff blog from around the time the TV drama “Aibou” started getting worse. Or are staff blogs everywhere just like that?

A　Buy online B　Buy at the concert venue

>>698 Exactly lol I only look at the Aibou staff blog occasionally, but it always makes me uncomfortable. The content really did become strange from around then. Did they get carried away once they became popular? lol I stuck with it through season 7, but I won't watch it anymore lol Sorry for going off topic orz By the way, Nana-sama on the cover is way too cool lol

Yuri-nee in First Press B somehow looks like she has the face of someone about to die?

What a lousy GARNET CROW. It's nothing but garbage lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

>>701 Before cursing someone, dig two graves.

So you mean a threesome with Yuri-nee.

The old man (O-san) in the regular edition looks like someone connected to the yakuza.

The old man looks thinner, with sunken cheeks... I wonder if he's okay.

So does that mean he slept with Yuri-nee?

>>706 He's just exhausted from the concert arrangements and the album arrangements. It must be that.

By the way, which of the concert DVDs released so far is the most popular? Which one do you all like?

If Yuri-nee caught swine flu, would it make the Yahoo News?

Most swine-flu patients are under 20. Rather than worrying about GARNET CROW, worry about yourself first...

>>709 You can't really discuss serious GARNET CROW topics in this thread, so be prepared for that. Personally, I like “Lock On.”

>>709>>712 I don't own the DVD, but among the ones I've seen on YouTube, I think “Lock On” is good. “Ninnaji” is good too.

>>709 My favorite is probably “Lock On”... followed by “2005.”

>>712　>>713　>>714 I see, I see. “Lock On” received some poor reviews as the sixth album, but it seems to be well regarded as a concert DVD. Thanks, everyone!

What has Mochi sung so far? ・Sen Ijo ・Mikansei ・Kurige ・Atsumeru ・Wasurezaki ・Last Love What else is there?

>>716 When were “Mikansei,” “Kurige,” and “Last Love” performed?

>>716 ＋“Mr. Holiday” (Lock On)

>>716 Apparently he also sang “Timeless Sleep” on OKAMOTO NIGHT in the past.

>>716 ＋“Mysterious Eyes”

>>715 From the perspective of Yuri-nee's singing ability, “Lock On” is the best. If you want to see a different Yuri-nee from usual, choose “2006.” If you want to be charmed by Yuri-nee, choose “First.” The 2004 concert is cool.

I like “Yume Mita Ato de” from the Ninnaji show.

>>709 Mine is “First.” Then 2004 and 2005 tied. After that, Ninnaji. I haven't seen “Towa Bare” or “Lock On” yet.

Yuri-nee is so cute on the album B cover... As expected, this hairstyle suits Yuri-nee better than a ponytail...

Aren't they releasing a calendar for next year this year?

Am I the only one who wants a Mochi cover album... with Yuri-nee joining in on backing vocals and tambourine?

They rank 14th and people aren't even buying the CDs. They certainly won't buy a calendar.

Does Mochi have any divine songs?

>>728 “First Fine Day”

As long as you join the fan club, you can buy the calendar lol

>>728 “telepathy”

>>728 “A Belated Reunion”

>>728 “Tsubasa”

>>728 “Sweet×2 Summer Rain” too.

>>726 I want to hear that too.

The fact that Yuri-nee also participated in writing the lyrics.

>>728 “Shizuka no Ma ni” “Res-no” Mochi has a lot of great solo songs.

>>728 “Res-no” is genuinely amazing. Nana's style and Mochi's style blend perfectly.

Speaking of masterpieces among Mochi's songs, it has to be that one. The one that goes “fon fon, fo-fo-foon.” That's a masterpiece.

I only recently learned that this band existed. I bought the “Lock On” DVD first, just to see. It's so good that I can't understand why it didn't sell; every song is a masterpiece. The older man who played drums as a guest is incredibly cool.

If you can accept Yuri-nee's voice, you'll fall in love with her immediately (^ω^)

People who discover an artist through a DVD and become interested are real adventurers.

And then the next step is going to a concert──

“Shizuka no Ma ni” is pretty good.

At the concert venue, I bought Mochi's CD because I wanted the poster, but I haven't opened it. Can I sell it for half price?

>>728 “LOST CHILD”

You like Kurose? You should also check out B'z from 1998 onward. And Twinzer too.

>>741 Really? So there are many people who dislike that low voice. Including the contrast with the anime-like voice she uses when chanting in “Mr. Holiday,” I think it's a very appealing, cool voice.

>>745 Give it to me.

>>745 Giiiive it to meee.

>>740>>747 Speaking of Kurose-san, he's the former ZARD guy~! (He even appeared on Music Station as a member of ZARD lol...)

>>747>>751 So he was that impressive. Speaking of the drummer at GIZA concerts, I remember him as a slender young Black man.

>>751 So he was one of those mysterious ZARD members who was often introduced in the Music Station footage!

>>745 I'll take it.

>>745 Give.

>>745 Give.

>>745 Hand it over.

>>745 I'll take the chestnut.

>>745 Give it to me.

Clitoris.

>>752 David-sensei! He's the best fit for concerts.

The GARNET CROW MFM special issue is now on sale.

Not needed.

Needed.

I saw the ad on “Arabiki-dan.”

If Okamocchi released a nude photobook, would you all buy it? (///)

Uho.

Has YouTube recently switched to high definition?

Let's get hyped together, Yuri-nee.

It feels like there have been more television ads lately. Have advertising rates gotten cheaper?

>>728 “Autumn Sky” and “LOST CHILD.”

Recently, in the Tokyo Electric Power ads, the live-action version of Denko-chan (not the illustrated one) kept giving me a strange sense of déjà vu, and it bothered me. I only realized yesterday that she was Yuri-nee.

>>772 Details, please.

Since Denko-chan is married, Yuri-nee is married too, right? I get it now.

Is it true that yesterday's Hokkaido News evening edition ran an interview with Yuri-san?

At the Kyoto event there was a woman whose hairstyle looked a lot like Yuri-san's. She wore her long hair in a ponytail tied with a scrunchie. She stood out among all the male fans. Some people were also wearing concert towels. Did anyone say anything to her while receiving a sticker?

>>775 Yes, it ran. The content covered the new single, new album, Hokkaido Marathon, concerts, and so on. Yuri-nee said, “I realized that the runners' spirit in the marathon aligns very well with my own musicality.”

Nana-sama is way too cool on both the A and B album covers lol lol And Mochi's hairstyle is weird, right? lol lol

>>773 Why don't you just search for it? ttp://www.tepco.co.jp/denkochan/index-j.html

>>776 I told Yuri-nee, “I'll be at the concert!” She replied, “Please definitely come~ I'll do my best!” I told Okamocchi, “I'm really looking forward to the album!” He said, “Please look forward to the one next month~” “...No, I meant the solo one...” He seemed to give a wry smile.

>>776 I told Yuri-nee, “I've been a fan since fourth grade! I've really supported you all this time!” Yuri: “Huh~!? Really? Thank you──!” Then I told Okamocchi, “I'm the ○○ who has been posting messages on Passpara──!” Okamocchi: “Ah──!? From ○○ University!” “Yes!! Good luck at the concert! I'll definitely be there.” Okamocchi: “Thank you──!” I went around for a second time afterward, but I was so happy that Okamocchi remembered my name from the first round that I couldn't say anything worthwhile and just offered some clichéd words of support.

What incredibly enviable people.

I want to buy Mochi's CDs. Which one should I start with?

So there really were people who went around a second time. They bought two copies of the same CD.

>>784 Didn't they buy the first-press and regular editions? >>783 I recommend “a first fine day” (the album).

Why is the old man standing at the front on the Ninnaji cover that looks like a family portrait? It would be perfect if Mochi and Yuri-nee stood side by side.

Because the old man gives off the aura of the head of the household. If Mochi stood in the middle, it would look like a Shichi-Go-San photo lol

>>775 It's true. A huge color photograph. It's surprising to see a general newspaper devote that much space to the article.

Has Yuri-nee not publicly wet herself at a concert yet~? (･∀･ )っ/凵⌒☆ﾁﾝﾁﾝ

She has drooled before, though.

It'll probably happen around the countdown.

>>788 Upload it.

>>788 Take a photo, take a photo!

GIZA destroyed by disgusting otaku, GARNET CROW harassed by disgusting otaku.

Tickets in Hokkaido may be selling quite poorly.

>>788 What was Yuri-nee wearing? Please upload it.

>>788 Is it a photo that hasn't appeared before?

>>796 I've seen it too. It was an outfit with a very low neckline lol Very masturbatory lol lol

>>554 Today's blog post is incredible lol It mercilessly roasts the cover...

>>798 Please upload it.

Has Yurippe not defecated in public at a concert yet~? (･∀･ )っ/凵⌒☆ﾁﾝﾁﾝ

>>797 This is my first time seeing this photo. It was taken by the Hokkaido Shimbun press. She looks appropriately her age lol Yurippe really is an adult now lol

Yurippe is a virgin girl.

Yurippe should defecate soon.

Scat fetishists show up in every thread, don't they?

I'm not a scat fetishist, but if it were Yurippe's poop, I could eat it. That's what this topic is about, right? I'm one of those people too.

I'm one of those people too.

>>805 Didn't you also write about masturbating to Yurippe? As expected, this really is a thread full of perverts ^^

“I did it” and “I saw it” are just stock phrases, right? lol

I'm the real winner in life, masturbating furiously to porn videos of women who look like Yurippe.

>>799 Thanks for the staged self-promotion lol

>>806-807 Fellow members, fellow members.

If it were Yurippe's urine, I could drink as much as I wanted, but I really couldn't eat the feces. By the way, scat fetishists are disgusting. Go die ^^

It disgusts me to imagine these people mingling in the concert venue. Stay away.

Stop talking dirty in this thread. Most people find it unpleasant. Start another thread if you want to talk about it.

>>815 Since the dirty-joke atmosphere has already formed, I think it would be wiser for normal people to move to another thread.

I'm not saying it should be banned, but show some restraint. Still, I don't think the past few days have been that excessive. Rather than the dirty jokes, I think people like >>686 deserve to die.

Well said. Normal people, get lost.

>>802 Please upload it m(__)m

>>817 Exactly. Compared with the dirty jokes, that kind of baseless nonsense is worse. >>818 I accidentally burst out laughing lol lol

Yurippe's spoken narration made me laugh so hard lol

Yuruppe is a robot, so that's why she reads narration from a script.

Sorry, I meant Yurippe. I mistyped because I and U are next to each other.

>>823 No, it's fine because she's Yuruyuru-pp, “Loose-pp.” Does Yurippe also make audible farts and things like that?

It suddenly occurred to me that the cover of the first-press edition of “STAY” looks incredibly similar to a photo of the members and a building published in CD Data several years ago (when the 5th album was released?). Could they have reused an old photo? ^^

Mochi was thinking, “I want to become the blue bird who guides Yurippe.”

Bump.

Yurippe's father and boyfriend came to watch at Shinpukan. Nana was on the second floor too.

>>817>>820 No, by ordinary standards the dirty jokes are more disgusting. Especially things like scat fetishism. Just imagining people like that mingling among everyone gives me the chills, just like >>814.

I feel like Yurippe has been photographed this way a lot lately. With her head tilted to one side. http://fm-kyoto.jp/blog/kyoto_air_lounge/images/imgp1974.jpg

>>830 She's pretty cute.

>>831 You think so too? lol It may be my favorite photo lately lol

>>830 (*´ω｀*)

Can't they do something about that dowdy hairstyle? Nobody wears their hair like that.

I feel like Yurippe looks better when she isn't smiling.

From a female fan's perspective, what do you think of Mochi and O-san? I'm a man myself, so I only see Mochi as the funny one and O-san as the cool guy.

Mochi seems to have great skin. His hands look big too. I think he's pretty handsome. O-san is just O-san.

When you see Mochi in person, his handsomeness is surprising. O-san looks exactly like he does in the cover photo.

Mochi is so handsome.

My thoughts are basically the same as >>836 lol With O-san, I'd think, “I want a father like that.” With Mochi, having an older brother like that would be nice. But Mochi is actually pretty handsome too.

>>830 I expected her to be very thin, but her upper arms are surprisingly fleshy. Very nice.

Mochi is cute. O-san is shibui—stylish and distinguished.

By the way, who are Yurippe's favorite artists? Has she ever mentioned them in an interview or somewhere? (“Yoake no Soul” and things like that... Is it Koshi Inaba after all? lol)

I really want Yurippe to cover “Ultra Soul.”

>>843 During the GARNET TIME days, she introduced songs by artists she liked. She seems to like Western music, especially overseas artists. It should also have been posted on the official website...

O-san and AZUKI-san are unbelievably cool. Yurippe and Mochi are the cute type.

I heard Okamocchi's proudest feature is that his hands are large relative to his height.

That sounds convenient for masturbation.

Nana-sama is also the coolest one on the “STAY” cover lol lol lol lol Also, from a woman's perspective, big hands seem to be a plus... I'm the shortest person at work, so I'm crying.

No, being tall is better than having big hands.

>>850 I'm barely below the average height for Japanese people, so I'm crying after all.

“Yuruyuru-pp” made me burst out laughing lol

Of this batch of covers, I like the regular edition—the one criticized here—the best. I like covers with an equal-four-member style, like “Kimi to Iu Hikari.”

The “Kimi to Iu Hikari” in >>853 is an album.

The diary has been updated. It even has photos.

>>843 The photo-book-like item that came with the greatest-hits album lists each member's favorite artists.

>>855 They're standing so close... The person to envy isn't Yurippe but Oyakata Takanohana (´･ω･｀)

So he was the head of the sales-promotion department...

Are Yurippe and Oyakata Takanohana standing too close? Their chests must have touched.

Takanohana has lost weight.

>>843 She likes Björk, Alanis, and The Cranberries, among others. She really respects Dolores O'Riordan as a vocalist.

>>836 I prefer O-san to Mochi. His hint of mystery is sexy, his hands are big, and his voice is cool (≧▽≦) His old-man jokes are great too (the original says “Nana nice”).

>>859 Don't worry. Even if they touched, it was just padding.

>>863 Yurippe's chest looks very large in that photo. Did they deliberately make it look huge? Or does the shape of the clothes make it look puffed up and larger?

I want to insert a very thick vibrator into Yurippe's vagina.

Seriously, the perverts write roughly the same things every time. It's boring. Why can't they just keep those thoughts to themselves?

I think the large chest in the diary photo is caused by the shape of the clothes. What does everyone else think?

>>867 I find you annoying.

Oyakata lol Is he touching Yurippe's butt with the hand behind his back? lol

Talk about the songs, everyone lol

>>869 Unforgivable...!!

I never thought we'd live to see a photo of these two together~ It would be nice if Oyakata listened to a CD.

>>869 Does Yurippe's chest look big in that photo?

Do you buy CDs in order to masturbate? I usually rent them, then download pictures to masturbate to...

Using the cover photo to masturbate is for amateurs. I masturbate by converting Yurippe's singing voice in my head into moans.

I bought the CD because kissing a computer's LCD screen feels a little embarrassing. The cover is already a little swollen. I haven't ejaculated on it yet, but I want to try next time.

>>875 Which song is your favorite?

>>876 I bought two copies: one for ejaculating on and one for keeping. Even if semen gets on the CD, you can still listen to it.

>>877 “Trans Trap” and “whiteout,” I guess. But really, any of the songs work.

Stop talking dirty!!!!!!!!

The chest is an “upper-body” joke. (A pun corresponding to “dirty jokes.”)

>>878 But the cover will become stiff and probably start to smell. Semen gets very strong-smelling over time. But when I think about my own stuff getting on Yurippe's face... it gives me an indescribable, ecstatic feeling.

There are 1,000 people like this gathered at the concert.

The distance to Yurippe at a concert is too far, so watching the DVD is enough. At the last hand-delivery event, I received it twice.

Where can I see the photo with Takanohana?

>>885 The official website.

Ejaculating directly onto the cover photo is for amateurs. Professionals print the image on convenient, portable photo paper and ejaculate onto that instead.

Isn't it about time they started distributing the online message videos... When all the singles came out before, the videos were pretty similar, but I was happy that they released quite a lot of them. I hope they put this one out on Yahoo or GyaO or somewhere too.

>>887 Thanks for the advice! I'll try it next time!

>>887 I see... Thanks, master.

>>886 >>886 I did it.

Don't masturbate to Takanohana.

>>879 The final chorus of “Sky Blue” at the first concert is great. That high “Aaah—” part.

You people only talk about masturbation because you couldn't get tickets, right?

Crazy!

Yuriny is freedom.

A textbook example of fans ruining an artist.

It makes me want to throw up thinking about people who write such disgusting things here, then show up at concerts acting as if nothing happened. Their private lives are probably like this too lol lol. They can't even get a girlfriend, so they make dirty jokes about female artists. What pathetic people lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol Go to a brothel.

I think the people making dirty jokes should go die.

>>899 Baldly agree. (Strong agreement.)

People who write disgusting comments like this probably have no friends and can only find a place to belong by acting out online (´・ω・｀) How pitiful.

I get hard imagining Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist) being penetrated by Oyakata.

What a bunch of embarrassing people who make no attempt to hide their sexual frustration. Forget girlfriends—they probably aren't even confident enough to go to a brothel. So all they can do is have virtual sex with the woman in a photograph. People like this probably also say strange things like, “I want to go to the concert, but I don't have the courage.”

Every time the atmosphere turns into “Stop talking dirty,” disgusting people appear lol lol Just as >>901 said, these people probably can only have fun by acting out in a place like this. They really are pitiful... lol

We still haven't heard any funny stories about Yurippe being a fan of another celebrity and acting like a starstruck fan... Oyakata—!

Yes, we have. For example, Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) scolding her on Music Station.

>>906 When Okamocchi (Hitoshi Okamoto) was on Music Station, his dressing room was next to Morning Musume's. Apparently Yurippe—or maybe someone else, I don't remember—scolded him.

The marathon ad is on.

http://006.shanbara.jp/music/view/image1188829781.jpg

>>907 Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto) kept staring at Morning Musume in excitement, so Nana warned him.

Do O-san and Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) have different roles on the keyboards?

>>910 That's the first I've heard of this. Where was it mentioned?

Yurippe in the photo from >>830 and in the officially released photo with Takanohana looks like she has a large chest. What do you think? Does it look big?

>>910 I've never heard that story. Give us the details (kwsk). >>913 How much do you like breasts, exactly?

>>912>>914 It was mentioned when the members appeared on PASTIME PARADISE.

>>915 Ohhh (　ﾟ∀ﾟ) Thanks!

I never expected Okamocchi to get so excited about Morning Musume... (´_`)

But that innocent side is exactly what makes Mochi charming... ('A `)

I haven't been following GARNET news lately, but I came back when I heard they were releasing a new album. But it seems this album title doesn't have any wordplay. Since albums 4, 5, and 6 all had wordplay, I racked my brain trying to figure it out, but I still don't understand.

>>919 What was the wordplay in 5 again? (・ω・ )

>>917 (￣_￣) “It's Morning Musume~ So fragrant~ Haa haa.” ( ^ω^) “Stop staring at them. That's rude!” Apparently that was roughly how it went.

>>910 Yurippe was excited at the time too.

Mochi also acted excited around Sayuri Iwata, so I guess he likes lolis.

I really wish they would appear on Music Station again... It feels like it's been ages since the last time (-.-;)

I wonder if O-san was excited at the time too.

O-san hiding his line of sight behind sunglasses.

O-san probably wanted to join in the excitement too, but after seeing Mochi, he probably restrained himself.

>>922 Apparently Yurippe was quietly watching them while thinking, “Everyone is so excited~”

>>928 No.

I've always wondered which songs play behind the ending credits of each concert DVD, so I filled in the ones I own. If anyone knows the blank sections, I would really appreciate the information. first live scope 「」 live scope 2004 ~Kimi to Iu Hikari~ 「Koi Suru Koto Shika Dekinai Mitai ni」 le 5 eme Anniversaire L'Histoire de 2000 a 2005「」 LIVESCOPE OF THE TWILIGHT VALLEY 「Mawari Michi」 Special live in Ninnaji 「」 Are You Ready To Lock On?! 「Yume no Hitotsu」 I wonder whether the song choices are based on the staff's preferences or the length of the credits.

>>930 The Ninnaji show was “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu Keredo.”

Yurippe is cuter than Morning Musume.

If Yurippe said “I love you more than anything,” I feel like I'd burst into tears.

>>933 Don't turn Yurippe into a traitor.

Today I became Mr. Furui (Hirohito Furui) and held a concert-preparation meeting with Yurippe (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ Then Okamocchi said, “You two are dating, right?” so I confessed to her (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ Yurippe blushed and said, “Actually, I feel the same...” (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ This must be a prophetic dream!

>>935 If the prophetic dream comes true, Yurippe and Mr. Furui will start dating.

>>936 I don't care whether Mr. Furui's wife is Yurippe or Nana lol

No, no, it should be Mochi.

The impression made by each pair: Mr. Furui + Yurippe = married couple Mr. Furui + Nana = siblings Mr. Furui + Mochi = parent and child Yurippe + Mochi = older sister and younger brother Nana + Mochi = parent and child Nana + Yurippe = sisters

Yurippe + Takanohana = master and disciple.

Dirty jokes are fine, but I'm not interested in these pointless topics.

I bought the latest DVD brand new, but the case is dirty. Is it supposed to be like this? There are lots of little spots that look like white scratches.

You bought a used one, idiot.

>>942 It probably isn't a rental copy. Maybe >>874 masturbated on it in the store.

I bought it new from Amazon. Could the case be double-layered, with the color from the white outer case rubbing off onto the inner case? Someone with the DVD, please check and confirm.

>>945 I just looked at the “Lock On” I bought a while ago. It really does have a few small, white, bump-like scratches.

>>946 Thanks. So it really was like that originally. Mine has quite a lot of them, so it looks pretty dirty.

Mine is completely clean.

>>948 Seriously? What is going on, then?

Mine has a few scratches too, so I can't tell whether they were there originally or what. By the way, are they releasing another album with different versions... GIZA really knows how to do business.

>>920 “I'm Waiting 4 You” The V in “Valley” is 5. LOCKS = “rock(s)” = 6. I originally thought those were the wordplays, but apparently it's not quite that simple. At most, perhaps it's the fact that “Stay” is track 7?

I removed the sleeve and took a look. It really is transparent. Can you feel that kind of dirt by touching it?

>>949 If it's unopened, I can't think of any other possibility besides this being the original specification, right?

>>951 AZUKI Nana.

>>952 No, you can't feel it by touching it. It's only visible from the outside. >>953 That's true. But some people say theirs is dirty too, so I guess I'll accept it.

If you hold it up to the light, you can see something slightly white on the surface. But it feels like this happens on the case of every DVD.

I thought there couldn't possibly be anything white on it, but when I looked, there really were a few white particles lol

That's my semen from when it was shipped.

>>958 But there isn't even a photo of Yurippe on the outer packaging?

>>958 Semen poured afterward onto something made by a female? It feels like salmon spawning.

Number 14 on CDTV...

They were number 10 on JAPAN COUNTDOWN. It feels like GARNET's segment on CDTV was especially long.

I forgot to watch it orz

>>962 It's because it's a slow-tempo song, after all.

The coupling song on this new single is really good! The melody in the outro is especially great♪

Yuri-chan, please forget that you saw me at Shinpukan. Please don't have anything more to do with me.

AZUKI Nana She learned from the ranking of the wealthy that Nana is very rich. She seems interested in politics (Che Guevara and so on). Her weakness is that she often travels abroad. Yurippe Quoting an old post → Her campaign posters might be stolen. I hope she can sing as an “uguisu girl” on a campaign van. Yurippe is a god. O-san His gentle gaze after taking off his sunglasses suits an election. His voice is magnetic too. Supported by women and middle-aged and elderly men. Mochi He shows a refined, princely air on campaign posters. Does he have the support of the Doshisha old-boy network?

Even when I ejaculate onto the cover lately, it isn't as thick as it used to be. It feels watery and runny... orz

Hokkaido Marathon Airs today at noon.

I was planning to buy B, but after seeing the cover I want A too...

Yurippe's cuteness in A is abnormal.

Nana-sama looks like she'd be fast at running a marathon. Yurippe seems like she'd quit early.

>>969 Watching it. I'm looking forward to GARNET lol

Maybe Nana-sama is participating too.

Will they play their songs during the race, like they played an ALFEE song during the Osaka International Women's Marathon?

>>974 It really might be happening lol Let's pray they play a GARNET song.

>>974 That made me laugh lol lol But if it were Nana-sama, it really could happen lol They'd probably only play a song at the finish, though~

Apparently they're about to reach the finish-line ceremony. Could GARNET perform live?

((；ω；｀)) sob → (ﾟ∀ﾟ) excited

That was a complete broadcasting disaster. I'm dying lol

What a shabby way to use them lol

What the hell was that lol

Does her voice sound a little strange...?

Call the complaints line.

Her voice sounds a little strange. So that's the kind of arrangement it is.

>>980 What happened? I may have missed it. Details, please (kwsk).

At first I thought she was harmonizing with a man (A;´･ω･)

At the very least, I hope they use it in the highlight reel. It's a TV program, so please at least broadcast the song properly.

I also wish they would add subtitles introducing the song.

I really wish the announcer would shut up while the song is playing lol lol

It's a good song lol

Yurippe has passed the 15-kilometer mark.

>>992 She's so slow, I'm dying lol lol “ON THE WAY” is a really good song. I'm looking forward to the album.

Nana-sama has just passed the 5-kilometer mark.

I'm already looking forward to “ON THE WAY.”

I ended up watching the entire marathon orz There really was only that tiny bit at the end...
