>1 Thanks for setting it up. http://twitpic.com/6fvvqh Here you go.

I'm back from the Imperial Capital. I was happy to meet up with so many blog friends. Sapporo was the best. See you at the Dome in Sapporo.

The Lost Story echoes.

Yurippe's right boob was slightly bigger today.

>2 It's huge when you set it to full size!

GARNET CROW

I think Yuri-san being born into this world is a wonderful miracle to celebrate.

I want to cum inside Yurippe.

>1 A乙UKI Nana

I just downloaded the morning-call voice. ...Yep, it's still school-play level. No progress since that old Over Drive track orz Yurippe's monotone delivery hasn't changed either lol.

Come to think of it, GARNET CROW isn't appearing on Kōhaku again this year.

>12 I don't really want them to get too famous.

I can't download the morning-call voice because I have an iPhone.

>14 What morning-call voice?

>15 It's a bonus for the new single. Apparently the members wake you up.

Today was really fun. But Osaka's response is always so weak. As one of the Kansai crowd, I'm truly sorry. It's nice that there weren't any weird chants, but a lot of people couldn't keep up with Yurippe's calls to the crowd. Sorry, Yurippe.

>16 Thanks.

>1 They say Otsu goes round.

>17 No weird chants? I'm jealous of Kansai. In Tokyo, some ugly woman with a hoarse voice was yelling, which was unpleasant. The people who kept checking with their friends, "That was the person who was in front earlier, right?" were annoying too. I'm talking about you guys! Also, during the first show, there was this short old guy with a frail old woman beside him on the left, and he was unpleasant too. When it rained for a moment and they went inside, he shouted, "The rain's stopped, come back out!" Are you even a fan? A real fan would consider Yurippe and the others' physical condition. And rain can seriously damage the equipment! The outdoor staff must be taking great care managing the performers and gear. Besides, it was a venue where the show was supposed to be canceled in rain. Complaining about it is unbelievably stupid.

>11 If it were a dirty-talk ringtone, I wouldn't mind the monotone delivery.

I handled both getting in and waiting outside after the show ｽﾞﾆｱｶﾊﾞ●ｴ

Yuri! I'm gonna cum inside you!

Oricon daily 8th → 8th → 10th → 13th → 8th Top 10 almost every day. Probably around 8th–10th for the weekly ranking too.

8th → 8th → 10th → 13th → 8th　× 8th → 8th → 10th → 13th → 10th　○

That's a pretty good showing.

It's the number of copies that matters, not the ranking. Less than half of Over Drive is rough. They could even get fired like Saegusa-san, for all we know.

>25 Thanks for the correction. >26 True. The numbers are steady, which is nice.

Even with sales like this, there's no way they'd fire the best-selling singer at GIZA, of all places. If they quit, it'd probably be over some difference in musical direction.

I was thinking about last week's weekly chart. ELT's theme song for a Monday 9 p.m. drama had a lower first-week total than Sumanē. Rather than Gane being amazing, it's more that ordinary CDs just aren't selling at all.

Does that mean people are buying digital downloads? Or is illegal downloading just popular now?

>30 Isn't it simply that ELT has gone downhill? Kaori Mochida's voice is pretty awful too.

I finally have some time, so I'll go buy it tomorrow.

Come to think of it, Okamoto making a living from the music he likes even at 35 makes him a pretty big winner in life, doesn't it?

>32 She's recovered quite a bit compared with a while ago. Also, ELT—especially their Monday 9 p.m. drama themes—are the kind that build up sales over time, so you can't compare them with Gane.

ELT is obsolete.

Female artists really take a brutal dive after passing their peak. They used to sell a million copies without breaking a sweat, and now they can't even sell 10,000... It's too sad. (Less than 1/100.) Compared with that, GaneCro has never really gotten any attention, but I think they've done pretty well to keep going this long.

Good morning, Yurippe the hag(^-^*)/ Keep it up today too.

>37 They've always been flying low lol. Maybe that's their strategy for lasting a long time.

Conan tie-ins aren't anything unusual anymore, and they don't have much effect. Even if they put a new spin on the coupling song knowing they'll get criticized, the core fans, the fans who go on about musicality, and the nostalgic fans all buy about the same number as always. But as for the promotional campaign they're working so hard on, I think it has at least been very effective at keeping existing fans around. I decided yesterday that I'll keep supporting them from now on.

I only buy albums.

Yume Mita Ato de is their career best, right? It sold 100,000 copies cumulatively. It sold 40,000 in the first week and was their first single to make the Oricon Top 10.

Why did Yume Mita Ato de sell so well? Summer Phantom was more well-known.

Sorry, I got that wrong. Yume Mita Ato de didn't actually reach 100,000 cumulatively. It looks like none of their singles reached 100,000. Their second album sold 70,000 in the first week and debuted at #4. It stayed in the Top 10 for three weeks and passed 100,000 in its second week.

Even if the boom passes and they stop being a popular TV act, GARNET CROW isn't going anywhere, and what makes GARNET CROW interesting won't change either. As fans, let's just honestly enjoy the true-to-life GARNET CROW that isn't pushed around by trends. It may be a little forced, but I want to accept the current situation with a positive attitude.

No livescope this year? I wish they'd at least do Sapporo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka.

liv has been looping endlessly on the iPod in my head.

liv is the greatest of great songs.

liv is looping inside my asshole.

I had a poster handed to me in Maihama, and the last time I met a celebrity from that close was at a Mutsugoro-san autograph session. It's amazing how celebrities can treat someone they've just met with a huge smile, as if they've known them forever. I think I understand a little better now how otaku get hooked on idols. Mutsugoro-san was incredibly unfriendly.

Are they not going to release another ballad like Wasurezaki?

But seriously, is the economy just that bad...? I'd skip lunch once to buy a Gane disc. Misu Misu apparently finally reached 10,000 copies, but Kaze no Niji sold nearly 20,000 in its first week alone...

I'll do my best for Yuri-san again today.

I used to buy every version if the jacket was different, but lately, if the songs are the same, I just settle for one.

Has Hareta Tokei ever been performed live?

>54 Hey, Hana wa Saku only sold 8,000 in the first week and barely reached 10,000 cumulatively. (Though it was at a disadvantage sales-wise since it was a single released right before the album.)

>57 I've never been to a live show, but I think Hareta Tokei was on the TowaBare DVD. Which live was that again?

5th Anniversary Premium.

There's a live radio show in Hokkaido soon. I can't listen because it isn't supported by radiko. >50 Mutsugoro-san lol

Yurippe's first trip to Hokkaido this year.

I fell in love at first sight with a girl at yesterday's Abeno event. What should I do•••

I can't take is an addictive song.

>54 It's not an economic issue. They had songs under 10,000 even early on. Honestly, this is probably just their actual level.

>62 Wasn't it this year?

Why were they so huge around Over Drive?

Because there was a movie sponsor.

>63 What did she look like? I might know her.

Thinking about Yuri-san makes my chest ache.

I think Yuri-san's existence is a miracle of the universe.

Gyokkodo got a delivery. http://www.gyokkodo.co.jp/?cat=8

Good work, Yurippe. Just Yurippe, though.

Radio in Hokkaido again tomorrow. AIR-G' supports radiko, so I can listen. Though it's at 2 p.m....

The pamphlet only has Ebi, Kansai, Sanada, Nozawa, BI—the four of them—and Ishigaki and Goto.

>69 Uh, let's see... A black-haired girl in a blue shirt? And a long brown ethnic-style skirt.

It goes without saying, but the most beautiful person at Abeno yesterday was Yurippe.

>76 Could be my little sister.

Yurippe is in Hokkaido!! Since she's there, I wish she'd do a release event while she's at it. Though I did see her at Ikspiari＾＾

If they sold "with you" still photos for charity and included a Jr. handshake ticket, I'd buy about 100.

So if the event is at night it's Hachigatsu no Yoru, and if it's during the day it's Akante?

They have six appearances this month, but nothing after October.

Osaka-jō Hall is open on December 17, 18, 24, and 25. Have they already booked it?

On the 15th it's NHK FM in Fukuoka.

Yurippe is flying all over the place. Well, it's promotional work plus travel plus a da...te.

>77 She was just as beautiful. >78 That's a lie.

Oricon daily 8th → 8th → 10th → 13th → 10th → 12th Maybe 9th–10th for the weekly ranking.

I've only listened to this single once so far...

If we're going to hope for something, I'd like 8th. Among 4th, 6th–10th, they've never landed at 8th. 4. Over Drive 5. None 6. Yume Mita Ato de, Kaze to RAINBOW / Kono Te wo Nobaseba 7. Spiral, Kimi to Iu Hikari, Bokura dake no Mirai, Maboroshi 8. None 9. MerHEAVEN, Hyaku-nen no Kodoku 10. Crystal Gauge, Namida no Yesterday, Yume no Hitotsu, Doing all right

>86 How do you know that?

They're the only group at GIZA whose average age has risen by more than ten years since formation... This aging band!

>90 Wait, really?

I want to hold hands and go on a park date with Yuri-chan from about three years ago, wearing a dress.

Does everyone get the same lines on the ringtone voice?

Driving Tokyo's Metropolitan Expressway at night while listening to Misty Mystery was insanely good. That digital feel suits the scenery right in the heart of Tokyo.

Someone uploaded the bayfm broadcast to Niconico.

Good morning, Yurippe the hag(*ﾟｰﾟ)v Are you enjoying Hokkaido?

This person at GIZA is probably getting fired too. http://m.ameba.jp/m/blogTop.do?unm=caos-nori-shiraishi&guid=ON

I like Nori Shiraishi.

GIZA has such a strong reputation for "leave them alone → fire them" that whenever someone has no activity for a while, I assume they've been fired. Like Shikapoo, Hundred Percent Free, SaaSaa, and so on. I wonder when they'll release something next.

Daily total for seven days 143,743 Masaharu Fukuyama *97,075 AKB48 *51,675 SHINee *34,970 Tackey & Tsubasa *34,757 AAA *29,958 the GazettE *14,447 Tokiya Ichinose *12,226 Kis-My-Ft2 *11,461 GARNET CROW *11,239 Kaoru and Tomoki, Occasionally Muck. Tuesday 4,297 Wednesday 2,810 Thursday 1,263 Friday *792 Saturday 1,186 Sunday 1,113 The weekly total will probably be just under 12,000 copies, around 9th place.

What happened to Niro Koizumi? What is Aunt Azuki doing?

I'll do my best for Yuri-san again today.

The last three releases Ranking / first-week copies / cumulative / title / release date *4　13,823　21,776　Over Drive　2010/04/14 14　*8,519　10,425　Smiley Nation　2011/06/29 *9　11,889　**,***　Misty Mystery　2011/08/31

I went to the nearby Midori Denka CD shop to buy Misty Mystery, but they didn't have it. Where am I supposed to go to find it? I think GIZA should put a little more effort into selling to retail stores.

>100 Who the hell are those people? lol I've never heard of them.

>101 Did they bounce back because it was the weekend?

Was it because there was an event over the weekend?

Yep.

Gane crap is below Kis-My-Ft2's fourth week lol. It was revealed on the 5th that the five-member Johnny's Jr. unit A.B.C-Z will evolve into ABC-xyZ by adding two new members. Following the opening of the musical "The Boys: Prison Without Bars" (Nissei Theatre, Tokyo), starring A.B.C-Z, Johnny Kitagawa explained the concept. President Kitagawa explained, "xy means Sexy. We'll add sexy 'xy' members to A.B.C-Z." Even after the new unit is formed, the five are apparently going to continue working together, with ABC-xyZ expected to operate like V6, which has two teams within it. Fuma Kikuchi (16) of B.I.Shadow is reportedly a candidate for one of the new members, and Kikuchi is highly likely to work in both units. Kitagawa also shared his future plans: "We want to add new members and evolve this talented army. We're also considering overseas and Southeast Asian performances." The unit is expected to be officially formed this winter.

I wish this Gane crap would disband already.

>111 Shut up.

Seriously, stores don't stock it. They probably get a few copies in, sell them, and that's it. Since they finally made the Top 10, I wish stores would put it in the chart display. Anyway, good work. Take a breather, then work on the album. I'll wait patiently.

When I went Sunday, Kawasaki Tower Records was sold out.

It's all thanks to Yurippe. Yurippe is working hard to sell records and make connections.

Can't find today's Yurippe pic anywhere. On the radio she said she had no idea it was raining this hard in Hokkaido and came in sandals, so she had to buy rain boots on the spot.

I wonder how many times a week Yurippe masturbates. Watching the way she uses her fingers to grip the mic makes me imagine things, o

What's Yuri-san's specialty dish?

Obviously Yuri's special curry.

No Taniguchi Kiyoko radio this time? Kiyopi is hilarious, so I wanted her to talk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4bNqCGltFQ&sns=em The school-lunch talk is way too funny.

It's not on the official site, but they'll be guests on NHK FM tomorrow. It's Ayugai-san's show, the one they were on before.

Congrats on 9th place! The azusa album was around 2,800 copies too, and ranked 34th (?)

Sorry, correction. azusa album 37th place, 2,862 copies

Nana-san's ringtone voice card is going for over 4,000 yen on Yahoo Auctions. Buy the CD already. If you buy four, you'll probably get one.

>129 Ringtone voice card? What's that? Details, please.

>130 Buy the Mysty CD and you'll know.

Oops, typo. 　Buy the Misty CD and you'll know.

How can Yuri-san be that beautiful?

I bought two, the first-press and regular editions, but both voice cards were Mochi lol

AZUKI-san's voice card, huh. Yeah, that does make me curious.

I like Mochiterious Eyes.

>135 Azuki's was the daytime version. Mochi's was a really corny line.

An album release in November, hell yeah! *･゜ﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*･'(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)'･*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*

Right before doing it, women think, "What if we go through with it?" Men think, "What if I can't perform?"

After Yurippe had jingisukan, today's poop must smell wonderfully rank, o

GARNET CROW's songs really hit different in autumn.

>104 The Conan tie-in effect is insane lol (ﾟ∀ﾟ) The TSUTAYA near my place was sold out too @ Musashino City. (They had a spot reserved in the new releases section, but no CDs on the shelf.)

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

34-year-old Yurippe, hang in there today too (>_<)

There used to be a video of the countdown live on YouTube, but it's gone now.

How's the B-side on the new single?

It's awesome. The live version is especially popular.

2003... Honestly, she's not cute at all lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6eHLhiVaWM&sns=em

>147 It's a good song, but it felt like the chorus of Shizuka Kudo's Koi Ichiyo had been modulated into a major key.

>148 You really don't get what's so good about this Yurippe? You're hopeless. Everyone likes Yurippe from this era. She's way cuter than current Yurippe.

This is about Hamada saying "Mai Kuraki is a copy of Hikaru Utada" on a program aired in June 2000. "Kuraki's agency was already rumored to have deep ties to yakuza and right-wing groups. That kind of power probably got stirred up by Hamada's comment. I think that's why they sent a propaganda van to surround Fuji TV" (industry insider) But the situation died down after a little over two weeks. Kataoka says that happened because the then-president of Yoshimoto, the late Hiroaki Hayashi, settled things with Morita. Yoshimoto commented on the matter, "It concerns a deceased person, so we don't know the details." Regarding Hayashi, who was known for his big-hearted, freewheeling personality, the magazine explained that he "had yakuza-connected people handle various matters." Although the Hamada and Shinsuke cases were both caused by comments made by the person himself, they can be said to be completely different matters. In other words, it comes down to who took on the role of putting out the fire. In Shinsuke's case, it was Shinsuke himself. In Hamada's case, however, it was the president at the time. This could be said to prove Hamada's innocence as a talent, but it also shows that, as a corporate culture, the Yoshimoto organization remains under the shadow of the yakuza.

The way they make their songs has changed again, huh.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Nana was shining brighter around the mid-2000s. Come to think of it, there seem to be fewer bittersweet songs lately.

For this event—the Asunal Kanayama, Ikspiari, and Abeno shows— was Yurippe wearing the same outfit at all three?

>153 Same, hope they disband. I picked up an otaku magazine.

Kanjani Eight conquers all five domes! The seven-member male idol group Kanjani Eight was confirmed on the 6th to be holding its first concerts at all five major domes. The "Kanjani Eight LIVE TOUR 2011," running from November 23 to December 31, will add a December 24 show at Nagoya Dome to the four already confirmed: Sapporo, Fukuoka, Tokyo, and Kyocera Osaka. They are also scheduled to release a new album in mid-November. Among Johnny's artists, Kanjani Eight is the fourth group to "completely conquer" all five domes, following SMAP, KinKi Kids, and Arashi. For Kanjani Eight, dome concerts in Sapporo, Fukuoka, and Nagoya will also be a first. Member Subaru Shibutani (29) commented, "I never imagined we'd be able to do a five-dome tour—I'm truly grateful. First of all, I want to express my thanks to the audience, and I want everyone to watch a Kanjani Eight live show and get energized no matter what. I believe that will help energize Japan." The new album will include all five singles that reached No. 1 on the Oricon charts, including "T.W.L," "My Home," and "365 Nichi Kazoku." It will also feature songs provided by many major artists, including Ketsumeishi, Sukima Switch, and Dohatsuten. After releasing singles for three consecutive months starting in April and serving as the main personalities for 24-Hour Television, their late-night show "Kanjani's Sorting ∞" (TV Asahi network) will move into primetime for the first time on the 10th. Tadayoshi Okura (26) declared, "There've been so many good announcements, and a five-dome tour is the perfect finale. We'll get everyone fired up and carry this momentum into our 8th anniversary (next year)!"

The card bundled with Misty Mystery comes in five types—which one is the rarest?

Kanjani ¬ Since there are seven of them, it's not infinity, it's negation.

>158 Vibe-wise, probably Nana-san's lol

In the chorus of the new song, Yurippe says "an" in this echoey voice. Is she doing that for the erotic appeal, or is it just some technique to make an impact?

They've had stuff like that before, haven't they?

I want to tour Kyoto's temples and shrines with Yuri-san, then eat a lunchbox she made herself.

I don't know if that was the intention, but apparently it took quite a bit of effort. Apparently she kept going "an, an" while recording it.

It's sad when your favorite singer disappears without ever getting to shine even once. They never hit a million in sales or got to perform at Budokan. It's kinda lonely.

>164 Where did she say that? A magazine or the radio?

>165 This is still way better than just fading away naturally.

I forgot to buy one of the otaku magazines lol

I don't really know how well-known this magazine is, but does anyone here subscribe to Music Freak Magazine? http://www.mfmagazine.com/mfes/index.html It has a ZARD LIVE DVD feature and a GARNET CROW interview, but it's a members-only subscription magazine, so you can't buy it at bookstores or CD shops(´･ω･`)

>169 I've subscribed to that since around their debut. It used to be free, though.

Before I knew it, GARNET had dropped below the Oricon Daily Top 20. But they got 9th weekly with 11,899 copies. Even including promo costs and everything, they're definitely in the black. Looks like they can keep going next year too.

I bought the regular edition today and got the card with all four of them together lol You can only hear Yurippe and Mochi's voices lol

I want to go grocery shopping at a supermarket in the afternoon with Yurippe in a one-piece dress, pushing a cart together.

I wonder which singers have sales around the same level as GARNET CROW?

I've been a fan since middle school, and being able to keep supporting them even after a few years as a working adult is incredibly lucky.

>161-162 It's in the chorus of "Our Only Future" too, right?

>164 Where did she say this, I wonder? The radio, or a magazine? Did Yurippe say she had to re-record the "an" part over and over? Or did she actually say the word "an"?

>177 Honestly, she's said it all over the place. She doesn't have that many stories to talk about on the radio. Though that's part of what makes her cute.

>178 I want to hear it right now—where can I find it?

Yurippe is assistant head of the radio department, head of the sales promotion office, captain of the live squad... how many titles does she have? lol

>179 Here you go. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm15513647

>181 Thanks. Listening to this, it's not "an" but "ah—." Is she doing it for the erotic appeal? Or is it just some technique to make an impact?

The "long, lingering melancholy that crosses the night" part is beautiful.

I wanna shake hands with Yurippe's self-proclaimed B-cup, o

I'm gonna masturbate to Yurippe right now.

Raise your hand if "Timeless Sleep" is your favorite.

>174 Three years ago, her sales trend was pretty similar to Nanami Tanumura's. When she recently released a semi-nude photobook, it came with a CD as a bonus, and that only ranked 24th...(´･ω･`)

Good morning, A-cup Yurippe(^-^*)/ Though looking at the PV for "Tada Kimi to Iu Hikari," she seems like she could be a C-cup.

>165 Yurippe's dream is Budokan, so I really want to make it happen for her no matter what.

>181 In this radio interview about recording the chorus, she says the "an" in the chorus as "ah—." I wonder if, on other radio shows, when she talks about recording the chorus, she also says "ah—" instead of "an"?

Misty is a real grower of a song.

Yurippe, you're way too gaudy. You're not young anymore—it's embarrassing.

Is Budokan Yurippe's dream? Didn't she already do a live show there with Mai Kuraki and Rina Aiuchi?

It doesn't count unless GARNET does it themselves.

>188 What cup size is Yurippe actually?

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

The DVD of the stay tour is great. Yurippe's voice really carries.

I wish they'd hurry up and do another tour. Though with only Tokyo and Osaka left, it's almost embarrassing to call it a tour. I'm looking forward to GARNET's signature move of cutting Nagoya too.

>198 Since there's an album coming out in November, there should be a live show soon. There's also the countdown at the end of the year, so the tour will probably be after New Year's.

>199 What's the source for the album news? Just a guess?

I'm all set to take Yurippe as my bride, o

Paraniyu has completely killed my expectations for the new album.

>195 I think she's got a C. It's the difference between the bust and underbust, after all. Yuri-san is pretty skinny.

Nagoya won't get cut from the Tokyo-Nagoya-Osaka tour, right?

>203 So she's not totally flat-chested, huh.

I picked up the P magazine.

They've only put out two singles so far, so the album should still be a ways off.

http://livedoor.r.blogimg.jp/hamusoku/imgs/a/8/a8bcb498.jpg http://livedoor.r.blogimg.jp/hamusoku/imgs/7/a/7abded4b.jpg http://livedoor.r.blogimg.jp/hamusoku/imgs/5/3/53647b53.jpg http://livedoor.r.blogimg.jp/hamusoku/imgs/a/9/a9eee9ce.jpg http://livedoor.2.blogimg.jp/dqnplus/imgs/3/7/3780ed82.jpg http://livedoor.2.blogimg.jp/chihhylove/imgs/c/a/ca2548ed.jpg http://blog-imgs-42-origin.fc2.com/c/h/e/cherio199/vlgeino021710.jpg http://pic.prcm.jp/gazo/ZT/6mCkn7.jpeg

For Tokyo-Nagoya-Osaka, they could fill the venues with capacities of 2,000–3,000, 1,000, and 2,000. If they space the shows out, all the hardcore fans will come to every one.

Why doesn't GARNET CROW appear on Music Station or CDTV?

>210 Because you have to sleep with Tamori to get on Music Station. There's no way Yurippe or AZUKI would do something like that. So that's the deal.

They got pretty good treatment at Animate this time too—the new releases section had a decent number of copies. Even placed next to moe-anime theme songs and character songs, they didn't look out of place at all lol Honestly, expanding their fanbase to the general public is probably too hard at this point... Maybe they should proselytize to anime fans through Conan...

Yuri isn't skinny. She's an A-cup with an easy-childbirth build.

>212 I wonder what they themselves want to become, anyway. They don't seem to have much ambition or desire.

I have a feeling Yurippe and Mochi will go independent someday.

Aww, poor Nana-san.

Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

They don't need a massive hit—just put out something around the level of Over Drive every now and then, then keep going for a long time on steady sales.

Don't use a mega-sized tie-in as the benchmark lol

I won't stop being a fan even if Yurippe gets married, but if AZUKI-san gets married, I'd quit. Just thinking about someone getting to hold such a beautiful woman makes me too sad to look at her anymore.

I'm intensely curious what kind of man that person will choose.

>209 The International Forum A would run at a loss, so that's probably impossible now. Starting this year, wouldn't it be better to do two shows at Nakano Sunplaza or C.C. Lemon Hall?

>211 AZUKI probably did pillow work for Kitsch back when she was a TV personality, right?（｀・ω・´）9m Randoseru lol

Well, Azuki-san was a college-student TV personality who was out of step with her era, so what she was aiming for back then was probably different from now.

I have no interest in trashy talents.

Put another way, she was a B-list talent. If it were today, she might've appeared on shows like Hexagon lol

Since she's from Kansai, she probably did pillow work for Shinsuke too lol

So what?

I want to go on a park date with Rie Sugaya-chan and have her give me a lap pillow on the grass.

I wonder if they'll be shooting the calendar soon. Merch probably has a high profit margin, so it's important for keeping their activities going. You can't just say, "Artists only need to make songs!"

>228 >So what?

Yurippe is a B-cup, and Nana's probably around an E-cup.

—Are you still spending your days working on production?! Nakamura: "Yes. With the hope that we'd be able to release an album by the end of the year in my heart, we're greedily continuing to make songs that we ourselves think are 'so cool' and 'something we want to do.'" http://pakila.jp/~portal/contents/interview/detail.php?eid=00505&category=music (The rest, after logging in.) The album should come in November at the earliest, December at the latest. I wonder if they've shifted to an album-focused strategy because releasing singles back-to-back doesn't sell and just costs extra money. Their previous album also came out with only one single and the As~ track they kept teasing instead of making into a single.

Event info just dropped. BREAKERZ "GO" release commemorative mini-live & handshake events September 22 (Thu) 18:30〜 [Nagoya venue] Nagoya Kintetsu Passe, 10F rooftop special venue September 23 (Fri) 13:00〜 [Osaka venue] Abeno Q's Mall, 3F Sky Court September 24 (Sat) 15:00〜 [Tokyo venue] LAZONA Kawasaki, Luefa Plaza Grand Stage September 25 (Sun) 10:30–12:30 [Hokkaido venue] Ario Sapporo Harvest Court September 25 (Sun) 18:00〜 [Fukuoka venue] Canal City Hakata, B1 Sun Plaza Stage Canal

Hurry up and release an album with the movie version of Over Drive, Smily, and Misty on it.

But an album already? That's fast. I don't know how many songs they made between then and Smiley, but please don't let it be another Para Uni. Ideally, it'd be like the seventh album. It had this delicate, vivid feeling to it, and not many filler tracks.

I finally bought the single today. I set Nana-san's morning call right away and was planning to go to sleep, but now I'm worried whether her voice will actually wake me up in the morning lol... (Has anyone tried it?) >222 I happen to live along the Chuo Line right now, so I'd really like them to do it at Nakano Sunplaza.

Was the 8th album poorly received?

"live" is a good song.

>233 All they're saying is, "It'd be nice if we could release it~" lol You can't trust statements like that from them lol

Those guys.

But there's not much time left in the year. If production is already underway to some extent, it's pretty likely that the next release will be an album.

>233 The previous album came out after three new releases: one single, "As the dew" from the best-of, and "Sora ni Hanabi" from the concept album. Hopefully there'll be about one more single (or new song) this time too.

10,000 for a single and 20,000 for an album— isn't that a perfectly respectable level? GARNET fans sure are pessimistic.

>225-227 Don't badmouth Azuki-san! Azuki-san is the most beautiful woman in the world.

I'm getting hard.

Azuki-tan's heart is darkness, o

The album will probably be released alongside the live shows. There haven't been any Symphonic-type events or radio rounds this year, so a release around November seems pretty likely.

How long after you paid the G-NET fee did your membership card and stuff arrive?

>249 >So what?

Akashi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9W0pCItWUI

>245 Too bad. As long as Yurippe is around, she'll be second forever.

Seriously, Nana-sama is better regarded, though.

Never heard that lol

Nana-sama wins in every department except the lips.

I don't think there's anyone in this world more beautiful than Yuri-san.

The Big Egg tickets have arrived by now, right?

But I've had friends look at a GARNET CROW CD jacket, point at Nana-sama, and ask, "Is she the vocalist?" about three times.

The card enclosed with the new single was Nana-san, and it was one of the shiny cards. Could it be Nana-san's rare card? I downloaded it right away, but her self-introduction was incredibly long.

>258 I've had that happen to me too. Well, it's true that a lot of people are drawn to Nana-san because of where she stands.

That has nothing to do with her reputation, though lol

Azuki-san is a wounded angel, so don't bully her too much.

lololol

>260 Nana-sama really is popular too, huh. I don't have much interest in Mini-Crow and the like, though.

Tegomass's long-awaited third album, “Tegomass no Mahō,” is set for release on October 19! It's a magical album where the two singers' voices weave the worldviews and stories of each song, featuring 11 tracks in total (14 on the regular edition), including the singles “Tanabata Matsuri” and “Aoi Bench”! It will be released in two versions, a first-press limited edition and a regular edition. The first-press edition comes with a DVD containing the music video and making-of for the album track “Mahō no Melody,” plus a special interview. The regular edition includes three bonus tracks not found on the first-press edition.

>255 Yurippe wins when it comes to noses. She gets completely crushed in the boob department, though.

I think all the combat-sports fans in Japan will come flocking in, like “To Kamakura!” and all that, and then it's just a matter of digging up the latent fight fans. There'll be quite a few people coming back with reactions like, “Huh, Nogueira's in the UFC now!?” and “Gomi's fighting too?” Plus the Americans living in Japan. Takasaki: Ah, right, that too. Hashimoto: It was the same during the WWE days, wasn't it? I think they'll come.

Seeing Azuki-san smile heals my soul.

If I keep buying singles, I'll run out of room to put them. Albums alone are fine.

Yurippe, 34, unmarried AZUKI Nana, 38, married Okamocchi, 35, unmarried God Hand, 43?, married How many more years will they keep going?

I went to Workman today, and Misty Mystery was playing there. It was a surprising discovery that it actually fits the blue-collar crowd pretty well, o

Is there anywhere that uploaded the Nico Live video?

God seats, cool seats, ceiling seats, shit seats, standing seats, sky seats.

Looks like the Nico Live comments were only saved for the arena section, huh.

>254 I've heard of people getting Nana-san's autograph, but I've never heard of Yurippe signing one.

>258 Back when I didn't know them very well, I used to wonder why the vocalist's picture was so small.

>274 She's 38, so if you think about it normally, it wouldn't be weird if Azuki-san were married. If she had a family, it would explain why she doesn't do radio rounds and stuff... but I still don't want her to get married(>_<)

I wanna marry Yuri-san.

No, I want Nana-san to build a happy family.

http://blog.movie.nifty.com/scifipolice/2011/09/misty-mysteryga.html I wanna ride one of those scream machines with her...

>285 >04/05/26 (Wed) 00:28 You really dug up something that old.

The dreams you've pictured, gather into HEAVEN and spread out forever~♪

>284 Mochi: “AZUKI Nana-san is a mystery just by existing (lol).” Even though last year he kept going on about how Azuki-san was just a normal person.

So we really know absolutely nothing about the members' private lives, huh?

GARNET otaku are so gross☆

Yuri Nakamura-chan.

>274 When did Nana get married?

Are Denshichi beans being sold?

I checked Yahoo Auctions: First-press edition + AZUKI card: ¥1,100 First-press edition + Furui card: ¥200 First-press edition + Okamoto card: ¥200 First-press edition + four-person card: ¥790, with bids already in. Isn't this going to drop below list price? lol

Wasn't there a Yurippe one?

1. Zuiki Nana 2. Uzuki Nana 3. Atsugi Nana I picked number 3 because I get cold easily.

I got the AZUKI card, but if someone bought it from me for ¥1,300, it'd be like I got the CD for free.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

>295 Were you after the Yurippe one? I just bought two normally and got the Yurippe one and the all-four one, so I'm satisfied.

Tell me the album news, please.

Does Dojima River Forum have seats? I want to go to the countdown, but standing the whole time sounds rough...

Apparently it can hold 2,000 people standing, so it'll be standing, right?

“Aozora Kanata” is such a good song.

Yep.

On the way back from Dojima this year, a Taiwanese guy called out to me on the street. He was kinda cute, so I followed him. He took me to the seventh floor of some weird mixed-use building, stuck his dick in my pussy without even taking a shower, and charged me ¥10,000. I felt kinda ripped off. I thought I should've bought a merch down jacket instead. That was my New Year's Day.

>306 Full service for ¥10,000? That's a bargain shop. No idea about diseases, though. AIDS, lol.

Why is “As the Dew” so damn cool? I wondered that, borrowed the best-of just for this song, and ended up completely falling into the Gane rabbit hole. I'm a college girl. The contrast between the two Over Drive jackets is irresistible lol

>308 If you think “As the Dew” is cool, you'll probably like the PV for “Kaze to RAINBOW” too, since it's similar. But women, go home.

>302 There are seats on the second floor, but they weren't on sale last year. If you want to sit, try emailing GIZA and asking them to sell the second-floor seats too.

Apparently the outfits in the “As the Dew” PV were inspired by an oil painting by Izumi Sakai, the artist. They have the same feel as the painting displayed at the reception desk of the Democratic Party headquarters.

They forcibly added a dome show onto the hall performances, and they still have ceiling seats? That's brutal. Glad I turned down the Big Egg lol Let's buy up the seats.

I used to be such a hardcore Gane otaku that people called me crazy, but I haven't listened at all since around “Rai Rai Ya.” I didn't know anything about GIZA artists either, and I only just found out that Rina Aiuchi and Yuka Saegusa retired lol How are things lately? Have they put out any good songs? For reference, my favorites are: marionette fantasia Natsu no Maboroshi Hashiri Tsuzukete Kimi no Ie ni Tsuku Made

Thinking about Yuri-san keeps me awake at night.

>313 After “Rai Rai Ya,” the seventh album was good overall.

Should I get off to Yuri again tonight?

>315 Really? Is it on par with the first through third albums? If so, I'll buy it!

>317 That's how I feel, but everyone has their own tastes, so it's hard to say for sure... lol Apparently it's highly rated by people who weren't into the fifth and sixth albums, so I recommend giving it a listen.

I can't quite tell which part is the chorus in the new song “Misty Mystery.” Where does it start and end?

They came in 9th on Countdown TV. If Dojima were standing-only, they'd have no choice but to put the PA section on the second floor, but there aren't even seats up there to begin with. At most, the staff could stand and watch, so it's impossible.

The album version of “As the Dew” is a downgrade, right?

Today is the final Sashimari Hall show.

Yurippe said something like, “This version has its own charm,” about “As the Dew,” right? By the way, why is “Namida no Yesterday” always the album version in live shows?

“This place is like a long summer— / blazing passion burns— / quietly coming and going— / testing me—” What song is this?

I'm watching a recording of Shokura, and Kansai is pretty good too.

Good morning to the most beautiful Azuki-san in the world(ﾟ▽ﾟ)/

>324 Hello Sadness.

>327 Thanks. It's my favorite song.

I won a shikishi board in the Nico Live lottery, but one corner was slightly bent... It was only a tiny bit, but right where Yurippe's signature is! There was a fragile sticker on it, but you can't just put a shikishi in a plain kraft envelope with no protection at all. Who am I supposed to be mad at, the sender or the delivery company?

You should just be grateful to GARNET CROW. There's no doubt that Yurippe wrote that shikishi herself.

>301 GARNET CROW 9th Album - A lot of elements ・Kanashimi no Sheol ・Smiley Nation ・Each other love ・Ima Kareyuku Akizakura ni ・Misty Mystery (Album ver.) ・Izayoi ・Endless Way ・MIMICRY ・Seimei ・correspondence ・Yume no Tsuzuki… ・winter days

What is this? Your imagination is incredible.

This kind of thing has been popping up occasionally for quite a while lol Even in the B'z thread...

>330 Yeah, you're right. Thanks. Lots of people wanted one but didn't win one, after all. I need to be grateful. It's still a family heirloom no matter what.

“I can't take…” >Nakamura: But you might be surprised that the opening guitar phrase sounds like THE BEATLES (laughs). A HARD DAY'S NIGHT http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD4TAgdS_Xw

I was looking through an old magazine and started wondering: In the July 2002 issue of JGM, there are Mai Kuraki and about eight others. Yurippe is wearing a blue camisole or something with a white top over it, so her shoulders are covered, but in the tiny photo on page 15, her shoulder is exposed. Did the photographer tell her to show her shoulder? It's kinda erotic when you imagine it.

Yurippe is laughing “kyahahaha” and totally getting into it during the shoot.

This is old news, but Yuri-san sure gets the lyrics wrong a lot lol

>336 So Nana is licking that shoulder, huh.

>329 Post proof.

There's an album preorder up on Amazon, so it looks like there'll be a tour in November. If it overlaps with the countdown, it'd save money on expenses too, which makes sense given their tight financial situation.

I was looking at the blog for RKB Radio's “HARU's Happy Time,” and it says there's a sexy voice from Nakamura in the song. “You can't miss listening to find out where it is♪” it says, but looking at this, was that “an” after the “scene” like a midsummer storm put in for the erotic appeal?

Both my first-press and limited-edition bonus cards for Miss Miss were Okamocchi.

It's not sexy at all, dumbass.

So they really are putting out an album. If it has around 11 songs and only two are singles, will the other nine or so be new songs? That'd be nice, but I bet they'll pad the tracklist with B-sides and rearranged versions of old songs.

>340 ttp://imepic.jp/20110911/584820

I checked Amazon, but where's the album info?

It's obviously a lie. There hasn't even been an official announcement.

Amazon beating the official site to the announcement happens pretty often, though.

http://www4.atword.jp/2st1/files/2010/12/12933873970588984637602849.jpg

I want to walk around town holding hands with Yuri-san.

>346 Isn't that Yurippe's Conan drawing lol Anyway, I can't read the signature lol What does it say?

>347 It's fake news lol

Kasuga showed up at the first show of the Sashimari Hall finale lol

>350 Poop.

All 45 shows, including the Tokyo Dome City Hall performances, are over. Today's second show had Tsutomu Sekine and Mari as guests lol Next Sunday is finally Takoyaki Dome, and the week after that is two days at the Big Egg.

No live shows this year, huh.

No live shows and no album? That's way too cruel!!

>336 What if the photographer told Yurippe, “Show your shoulder a little,” and things started getting sexually charged between them as they kept shooting? Just imagining it feels like it'd get pretty erotic.

>350 You can't help staring at it lol >359 It's not an erotic photo, and there were a bunch of other staff around. How would that even happen?

Yuri! I'm gonna cum inside!

I wish they'd do another high-five event.

>360 I was looking through an old magazine and started wondering: In the July 2002 issue of JGM, there are Mai Kuraki and about eight others. Yurippe is wearing a blue camisole or something with a white top over it, so her shoulders are covered, but in the tiny photo on page 15, her shoulder is exposed. Did the photographer tell her to show her shoulder?

It's a little early, but is the winter concert schedule still up in the air? Since there's Arachi Takoyaki over New Year's, I don't plan to go to Gyu-kon or Teito.

A translation blog featured “Yume Hanabi.” Looks like people in all kinds of countries know about it. GARNET CROW “Yume・Hanabi” PV: Reactions from overseas http://syokoku77.blog.fc2.com/?no=106

What's with this “reactions from overseas” crap, dumbass.

Thinking about Yuri-san makes my chest hurt.

Regarding the album, all Yurippe said in the Pakila interview was basically, “It'd be nice if we could release it by the end of the year.” As for the tour, Yurippe said at an Osaka event, “See you at the countdown live~!” so a post-New Year's tour is confirmed. Let's just wait patiently.

They're getting old now, after all. Their stamina probably can't keep up.

But she's still pretty enthusiastic in that department?

Is the artist name changing to The garnet crow!?

The album is cominggg!

>331 You've been bringing out that same bit every time album season comes around for about two years now. You're way too crazy. Gross.

The album is scheduled for release in November. It sounds like the information has already been passed down to the relevant people. I didn't hear the date the information embargo lifts, but since the single only just came out, I figure the announcement will be around late September to early October. Let's wait until the details are out.

Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

【GARNET CROW Misty Mystery first-press bonus card: AZUKI Nana】 With two days still left before the Yahoo Auctions end date, it's already up to ¥1,900 lol It sells for more than the bonus photos included with AKB CDs.

>376 Poor old man, his card only goes for ¥200–250. The ringtone card popularity ranking is: Nana > Yuri > Mochi > old man

Nana is pretty popular, huh.

Azuki-san is the most beautiful woman in the world, after all.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

Almost all the GaneSCO back issues were rejected.

>381 They already arrived?

I missed out on the binder too. I was planning to pay nearly ¥10,000, but a ¥2,000 payment slip arrived instead.

>362 I wish they'd do one again. My heart was pounding like crazy when Azuki-san's hand touched mine.

Don't high-five people with semen on your hands, you damn old men.

I don't know if it's the agency's strategy, but I wish they'd stop with these events and bonuses that fish for creepy otaku. They're going to leave Gane with nothing but that image.

Listening to this old man's imagination made me think: I wish they'd stop worrying about unnecessary stuff like “GARNET-ness” and just make whatever music they want. When I hear Mochi's interviews, he's always worrying about whether something sounds like them.

I love the high voice Azuki-san makes when she's getting flustered.

Has anyone seen the GARNET CROW interview on Ameblo with that narcissistic Keio guy from Hexagon?

I saw it, but the conversation was painfully awkward. That guy could've done more to keep things lively, but he made the whole atmosphere weird.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63SmY5vvhLk&sns=em I think this song would've been better in Japanese instead of forcing it into English.

>389 Was that the program from before it appeared on NicoNico?

>389 I only saw the last part, but I remember Yurippe being unusually hyper... Compared to that, she was pretty low-energy on NicoNico. Maybe it was because the host was handsome lol?

>385 None of your business.

On Music Japan Request, Okamocchi was wearing a Panerai with the included rubber strap.

P-p-p-p... Panerai, you say?! $¥ Where the hell did he get that kind of money? lol

The cast centers on B.I.Shadow members Kento Nakajima and Fuma Kikuchi, along with other highly individual Johnny's Jr. members. The show's concept is “the growth of Johnny's Jr.” It follows the members as they grow through talk segments, location shoots, and challenges in all kinds of projects. “Johnnys' Jr. land / Johnny's Jr. Land” is packed with all kinds of segments, like attractions at an amusement park! The highlight is “Super Battle Colosseum,” a real, no-holds-barred battle show where the members take on various challenges in competition to gain the skills needed by star idols. The members will also show off impressive skills that make you say “Whoa!” and funny talents that get a laugh. MC Junichi Mogi will draw out the appeal of Johnny's Jr. from all kinds of angles, so viewers can enjoy plenty of sides of the members they normally never get to see. The Johnny's Jr. members will also take on their first commercial shoot. The commercial is scheduled to air from September 30. Look forward to Johnny's Jr.'s first TV commercial, filled with their refreshing smiles! <“Johnnys' Jr. land / Johnny's Jr. Land” broadcast details> <First broadcast> Sunday, October 2, 9:00–9:50 p.m. [Regular program every Sunday] (rebroadcasts available) <Channel> BS Sky PerfecTV!

>397 Go die.

What's GARNET CROW's next event? I feel like they mentioned something about an outdoor live show?

Three people having birthdays on October 30 is pretty auspicious lol

>399 They should do it at a World Heritage site. Himeji Castle, maybe.

>389 It felt like a promotional show for Ameba's features. There wasn't any particularly memorable scene. It sucks that I failed to record the NicoNico one and couldn't watch it.

I think Yuri-san is an angel who descended to Earth.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbjqXcQ8uEQ&sns=em I definitely think LIV would've been the better single.

I want them to do GARNET TIME again. And a fan club event too.

They should do a live show at Ninnaji.

>404 The Conan people chose it, so what can you do? It's impressive that they pitched two completely different songs, Misty and LIV. And then went ahead and released them together, which is also impressive.

Write it as “live,” not “LIV.” It's confusing otherwise, W

LIV, led by Manabu Oshio.

Furui, the least popular one, isn't needed... It'd be better to add Tokunaga or Ohga. Kurumadani would be fine too...

What kind of scumbag uploads new songs to YouTube? Yurippe's income is gonna go down, you scum. Thanks.

Even if you don't have money, at least rent the CD.

>410 Couldn't agree more.

Even though they went out of their way to include red and black.

GARNET is probably one of the more active groups. They release an album and do live shows every year. It's a shame there was no live scope, but take it easy and get some rest this year.

>410 >413 What do you mean, “the old man isn't needed”? Are you idiots? Listen to everything from “Kimi no Ie kara” through “I can't take” again, repent deeply, and spend the whole day today wearing sunglasses and regretting it.

A self-reply, huh...

Good morning, Azuki-chan(*ﾟｰﾟ)v

When you listen to the song, you can tell it's “LIV,” but if the title is just written as “live,” you can't tell whether it's “LIV” or “live,” right?

On MJTV, they said something like, “This summer was all recording except for Otodama.” Sounds like they've already written a lot of songs.

In that case, I'm looking forward to the album.

I won the binder.

I want to see another PV like “Naked Story.”

The German version of “Miss Mystery” is so cool.

I won all eight back issues of the newsletter. Didn't get the binder, though.

>425 I won the first five newsletters too. Didn't get the binder.

Seven Net has posted it too, following Amazon. But Tokunaga's annoying chatter really doesn't fit GARNET, does it?

When are the separate Nakamura Yuri issue and live merch going to ship? For those who applied, did you get an email confirming payment or anything?

>427 Nice troll.

I got six of the eight I requested. The two older ones were rejected.

I want to go chestnut-picking with Nana-san.

You'll pick them, peel them, and bring them to Nana-sama, right?

You mean picking Nana-san's clit, right?

Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

Autumn must be heaven for hotpot-loving Yurippe~

>428 I wonder when it'll be. I think they were supposed to start shipping after September began, but I haven't gotten any email either.

I wanna eat hotpot with Yurippe.

Us, racing through eternity in a fleeting moment.

Feeling kinda sentimental.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Enjoy Johnny's Jr. on “BS Sky PerfecTV!” The variety show “Johnnys' Jr. land / Johnny's Jr. Land” (Sundays at 9 p.m.), featuring highly individual Johnny's Jr. members centered around Kento Nakajima (17) and Fuma Kikuchi (16) of the four-member group B.I.Shadow, will start airing on the new BS channel “BS Sky PerfecTV!” from October 2. The channel launches on October 1. This is Johnny's Jr.'s first named show on Sky PerfecTV! It follows boys aiming to become future superstars as they take on talks and all kinds of projects and grow. A commercial featuring the cast in their first-ever TV appearance will also begin airing on the 30th of this month. Nakajima enthusiastically promoted it: “I think our fans have only ever been able to see us in magazines. This time they'll get to see lots of us in motion, so I want it to be the kind of show that makes them want to record it as a permanent keepsake and play it over and over.” Kikuchi added, “I want people to see the individuality we don't show through singing and dancing in our usual work.”

L'Anniversary

Is “hirakete the guidebook” a Shiga dialect? It sounds kinda lame.

Chestnuts and autumn still sound like they're a long way off. It's 35°C again today. What region's song is “Short Summer,” anyway?

Northern Shiga is pretty cool.

I want to put cat ears on Azuki-san and take her from behind, after the countdown. Also, a ticket around ¥5,000 would really help.

Serious question: how old are Yurippe and Nana's otaku?

Not an otaku, but 32.

I'm 34.

You should go first lol

Are “Hello Sadness” and “stay” connected somehow? They really hit when you listen to them back to back.

56.

>447 22.

Everyone's so young(^^ゞ 62.

The old guy who shows up at Kanto events wearing a Giants baseball cap, slacks, and a suit jacket is probably 55, but he couldn't look less suited to GARNET. He came to Otodama the other day too, and somehow looked even less suited to the sea. There are lots of kinda unfortunate fans too, like that overweight woman with glasses who went into the sea fully dressed.

19, o

>455 I'm a Giants fan who remembers Nagashima and Oh's V9...

I sold every ticket I had for the 18th, Takoyaki and Sashimari, lol

Should I bring a Kansai penlight and uchiwa to Takoyaki/Sashimari? For Big Egg, I'll bring an Ashi penlight and Yuma's uchiwa too.

>425 I missed out on newsletters 16–21, and the binder too.

50.

73, kid.

A lot of people missed out on the binder. I did too. There sure are a lot of old guys here. I'm a little younger than Yurippe, but I've admired her for ages.

Someone uploaded a ton of GARNET TIME to YouTube.

The choruses have been really easy to listen to lately, but I keep noticing that she sometimes sounds kind of nasal. Is that a change in her vocal tone, or a technique?

Teach me the title abbreviations only GaneClo fans know♪

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Good morning, the most beautiful Azuki-chan in the world(^-^*)/

>460 I missed out on 16–21 too.

Azuki-san has said she hates it when people abbreviate titles and make all the thought she put into them pointless. Though interpretation is up to you.

Ugh, seriously! “live” is way too good. It's not just at the level of the “too cute” and “too beautiful” stuff the media keeps repeating. It's simply too good.

I wonder where Yurippe starts washing when she takes a bath.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

Obviously she starts with the most important hole, right? I bet she's taking care of it so it'll be ready to accept my penis anytime.

>465 It's a technique, surely. I feel like she started singing through her nose, and now you can hear her better live too.

>464 They were uploaded before I knew it. I'm happy I get to see so much of Azuki-chan. Okamocchi is so pale he looks like you could see his organs through him, lol

>476 That part cracked me up lol Anyway, Nana-san was really cute around then.

>Around then >Around then >Around then >Around then >“Around then”

Sorry.

>477 Yeah, she was really cute. Though Azuki-san's voice was a little hoarse when she showed up an hour late lol “Let's just get started already”—Azuki-san was hilarious lol

ID:ab/AiUcQ0 ID:YaBmnAjBO Nice self-reply.

>481 Shut up, masturbator.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Believe in the unseen feeling. She is my soul.

Where's GARNET TIME~??

People with zero search skills should go die.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUWEO7BVKmc&sns=em I'll support Azuki-san forever, even though she's still going strong with a hangover~ lol Her private life does seem kinda sloppy, though.

What's wrong with masturbating?

So Azuki-san drives a car. It's scary that she keeps a chainsaw in it lol

I'm gonna masturbate now.

I'm reporting GARNET TIME on YouTube and getting it deleted lololol

>487 Reported it.

I downloaded all of GaneTai, including the bowing scene (lol)

I can do anything for Yuri-san.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWbpBWHtUwQ

Announce the tour already. There are tons of live shows at the end of the year.

It's hilarious that your only talent is searching lol Hope you can find a job with that same energy.

Sorry, but I was still an active fan back then, so I recorded all of GaneTai on VHS. VHS!

Which girl in AKB48 is a GARNET CROW fan again?

>499 Sumire Sato-chan and Sayaka Yamamoto, NMB48's center.

I want to cum inside Nana-sama and teach her the joys of being a woman.

>497 Doesn't look like you're any good at your job...

Yurippe panty shot. http://motto-jimidane.com/jlab-dat/s/54432.jpg

ㄘㄘをㄟ⁰ㄋㄟ⁰ㄋㄜㄝㄋ

When you talk to Sumire Sato-chan about GARNET CROW at handshake events, she gets really excited and it's fun. Apparently she loves Yurippe and Nana-san and goes to every concert. The handshake-event application period is open now, so all you GARNET otaku, please support Suu-chan. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJQ54bZqrdw

Yurippe composes, sings, and does promotion—she's really working her ass off for GARNET CROW. I respect her as a person too.

Compared to that, Azuki... >487 As a working adult, that's way too sloppy.

Lines like, “On the journey toward a time when we'll scatter~” and “Within our limited time~” Her lyrics about human life are really deep.

After watching the old GT, seeing Nana-san in GT Special makes me crack up lol How did this happen lololol Though I guess this is probably her real self.

>503 I almost came.

Misty is surprisingly a real grower.

Nana-san will probably be doing outdoorsy stuff like gathering wild vegetables this time of year. Yuri-san is probably just focused on writing songs. The guys probably don't change much all year round. (laughs)

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

I wanna mate with Azuki-san in the middle of a wasabi field while we're out hiking, o

>512 Nana probably does some work during work hours, too.

This band has such a weirdly subtle presence, huh... I don't know GARNET CROW that well, but here's a little impression... “Mawari Michi,” “NORA,” and “Yuudachi no Niwa” deserve to be rated higher. They're seriously god-tier songs! Also, Mochi's “Last Love” and “Atsumeru Heaven” are healing for me. I've got a sweet tooth, so I love zenzai lol

I want to tour Kyoto's temples and shrines with Yuri-san.

Bento~ eh~ bento

The Gane cluster's tweets are so gross I've been muting them left and right (laughs)

Who?

>516 There's a ton of stuff you wouldn't get from just one DVD and one album.

>503 That person has shown up in this thread before too, and she's younger than Yurippe. Yurippe really is amazing.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

GARNET CROW has a lot of summer songs, but they hit even harder when you listen in autumn.

I wanna smell Yuri-san's panties.

They stink.

Which DVD has the fewest lyric mistakes?

>527 The PV DVD.

Whatever lyrics Yurippe is singing in that moment are the correct lyrics.

So you're saying Azuki Nana isn't needed? Come out and fight me.

The new song is great. Furui really is a genius.

>526 Don't say random stuff when you've never even smelled them!

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Good morning, Auntie Yurippe.

Has Furui-san been promoted to a GIZA executive by now? Though with everyone below him disappearing, maybe nothing has really changed.

Of course the song is good too, but the visuals are great. The very end was especially good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B24ZZL57FpM

I looked it up, and it was this: http://www.upperfirst.com/work/colorama-makeover Though this has nothing to do with GC.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

The separate Yurippe email just arrived!

Today is Shinpei Takemoto-kun's (7WEST) 18th birthday. Congratulations.

>516 Yeah, there probably aren't many people who rank GARNET CROW as their absolute favorite. They like them, but they're not number one.

Music Station is starting.

I'm an old lady, but as long as Yurippe is happy, that's all I need, o

If the page count is going to nearly double, I don't mind waiting a little longer. I love Yurippe.

>544 Are they appearing?

Huh? Are they going on Music Station?

Yep. Didn't you get the email?

...Just to be sure, who's appearing?

>539

>545 You're a good person lol

Why did mfEs suddenly start posting information about Sony artists? Could it have something to do with Being?

Where's the new album already~ >551 It got nuked, but I don't even know what the forbidden word was anymore.

If Yurippe ever has trouble taking care of her sexual urges, I'm always ready to rush over, o

>543 I've had her at number one for over five years. Maybe it's because I'm a little sentimental myself lol I wish they'd put out a bittersweet song soon.

I mailed in my countdown application. Looks like the album and live show will be next year.

So this New Year's Eve I'll be standing all night after getting off work again. Yurippe told us, “See you at the countdown,” so I'll go no matter what.

Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

I want to go for the first shrine visit of the year with Yuri-san.

Is there already something about the countdown? I only joined G-NET a little while ago, so my membership card and stuff haven't arrived yet. Is that okay?

They're both so beautiful. I wonder what the male members feel like about that.

Question: Besides “Marionette Fantasia,” “in little time,” and “Mikansei na Neiro,” are there any other songs whose lyrics were based on existing stories like fairy tales or myths? If so, please tell me.

>561 It says people who joined in August will have their membership card and stuff sent together. I wonder what happens to people who joined in September.

>563 “Marginal Man” — Grimm's fairy tale “The Pied Piper of Hamelin” “dreaming of love” — Oscar Wilde's fairy tale “The Nightingale and the Rose” “in little time” — the film “The Hairdresser's Husband” by Patrice Leconte “Mikansei na Neiro” — Greek mythology, the myth of Orpheus and the lyre “Sen Ijo no Kotoba Narabetemo...” — the children's book “Momo-chan and Akane-chan” by Miyoko Matsutani “blue bird” — the fairy tale “The Blue Bird” by Maeterlinck “flying” — the film “City of Angels” by Brad Silberling “Mizu no Nai Hareta Umi e” — Andersen's fairy tale “The Little Mermaid” “Jewel Fish” — the film “Arizona Dream” by Emir Kusturica “Marionette Fantasia” — the fairy tale “The Nutcracker and the Mouse King” by Hoffmann “Eien wo Kakenukeru Isshun no Bokura” — the film “Wings of Desire” by Wenders “Endless Desire” — Hollywood actresses Grace Kelly and Vivien Leigh “Nogare no Machi” — the Old Testament, Numbers 35, Deuteronomy 19, and Joshua 20 “Kimi no Omoidaita Yume Atsumeru HEAVEN” — the late-18th-century German poet and novelist Novalis and his novel “The Blue Flower” “Haru Matsu Hana no Yō ni” — Shakespeare's play “Hamlet” “Hyakunen no Kodoku” — Gabriel García Márquez's “One Hundred Years of Solitude” “The Crack-up” — Fitzgerald's “The Crack-Up” “Mayoi no Mori” — the ballet “Giselle” “Misty Mystery” — the film “Splendor in the Grass” and a poem by Wordsworth Copy-pasted this, so I have no idea if it's true.

>563 Also, “Hello Sadness” is based on Sagan's “Bonjour Tristesse.”

>566 Thanks for the follow-up.

What is this? This is amazing. Wait, is Nana-san a genius?

>568 Yep, that's right. You didn't know?

Is Azuki-chan married?

This isn't limited to GIZA, but popularity depends on having a talented arranger.

I watched a video of Conan singing in a horribly off-key voice, and when I looked up what the song was, it turned out to be GARNET CROW's “Namida no Yesterday.” At first I was shocked by the gap between the vocalist's face and voice lol She looks like she could do a Crayon Shin-chan impression lol

>565-566 Thanks. I had no idea there were so many. I'll check them out and deepen my understanding of the lyrics.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

It's meaningless.

Yurippe is working hard, so I'll work hard too.

>516 It was better when they had that “subtle presence,” but now they're GIZA's biggest moneymaker...

Isn't it good precisely because GIZA is subtle?

While other bands and groups are disbanding or having their contracts terminated, they're already a hidden heavyweight with ten years under their belt. They keep broadening their musical range while maintaining a consistent level of quality. “I feel like buying a CD... but I can't find anything I'm specifically after.” When that happens, be sure to pick “G.”

I wanna stimulate Yurippe's G-spot, o

BREAKERZ TV appearances 9/19 (Mon) 23:50–24:50 TBS “Kamisun!” 9/21 (Wed) 24:00–24:30 Chiba TV “MUSIC FOCUS” Commentary appearance 9/22 (Thu) 18:00–18:55 Mie TV “Tottemo Wakudoki!” Commentary appearance 9/22 (Thu) 24:55–25:25 Ehime Asahi TV “Love Chu!

I wonder if a new single is coming soon.

No one's posting. Guess they're not very popular.

9/25 (Sun) 18:10–18:39, guest appearance on NHK “MUSIC JAPAN”: Hey! Say! JUMP Tomorrow is finally the Sashimari/Takoyaki Dome show lol

Tomorrow's Takoyaki Dome is a JUMP-fan festival. I wonder who's going to be the backup act?

I want Yuri-san to smack me over the head.

I want to take Yuri-chan from behind.

The songstress Yurippe's voice heals me.

>573 Knowing the sources behind the motifs makes the lyrics even more enjoyable, right?

The Best Tour DVD is starting to gather dust lol Maybe I should watch it once in a while? lol

>590 I just rip the audio and listen to that~.

Angela beat you to it, Yurippe. But cheer up. It's nothing to worry about.

The countdown application form arrived. Unlike previous years, there's no lottery this year, and you can apply for up to four tickets. They must've had a ton of tickets left over last year.

Even Do As has become more mediocre than GARNET CROW. I love both vocalists because they're beautiful and I adore their voices.

>500 Do you know what songs those two like? Tell me if you do! >593 It's standing-only again this year, so I'm on the fence about going! Are you guys going?

I want Ame Talk to do a “Comedians Who Love GARNET CROW” episode. Topics: ・What is GARNET CROW? ・The appeal of Yurippe's voice ・AZUKI Nana's worldview ・Let's talk about Okamocchi, the charismatic guitarist who also handles vocals ・Let's talk about the God Hand, Hirohito Furui ・What is “Mini-Crow”? ・What is the legendary mail-order service, GARNET Shopping? ・Remember this: dance moves you can use at live shows ・The annual countdown live—what is it? ・The one song I choose ・A firsthand experience of the continuous spiral

It'd be fine if Okamocchi and Yurippe got together, right?

I wanna marry Yuri-san.

Are you trying to act like an old lady, o?

I'm heading out on a Takoyaki expedition.

Have they started lining up the merch already?

Yep, there's a line.

>595 >593 >It's standing-only again this year, so I'm not sure I'll go! >Are you guys going? I'm thinking I might skip this year. It's standing-only and still expensive.

Last year wasn't particularly tough, and I normally want to go anyway. Plus Yurippe told us, “See you at the countdown,” so I'm going.

Please do a live show. I'll go buy a Mini-Crow CD. I don't want to buy from scalpers on Yahoo Auctions with opening bids over ¥4,000.

Good morning, Azuki-chan.

Is the OVER DRIVE PV included on any album?

>607 I think it was only included as a first-press bonus.

>562 Because she's an old lady...

>608 Thanks. The DVD in the first-press edition of the “Over Drive” single says “As the Dew,” so that means “Over Drive” is on it too, right?

Gane needs a young girl by now. A double-vocal setup with the old lady would be hilarious. Even better if the old lady got jealous.

It's not included on OVER DRIVE.

It hasn't been released as a video work yet.

Come to think of it, they were 9th last week. What place are they this week?

I want to tour Kyoto's temples and shrines with Yuri-san.

>614 It's already out of the chart, so we don't know the sales either.

>616 Out of the chart in its second week!?

Nana-san is beautiful, but Yurippe's makeup is way too heavy.

**9th**　**2nd week**　*11,889　*13,752　Misty Mystery (still charting)

What about performing songs chosen by a popularity vote at the countdown live?

1,863 copies in the second week, huh?

Does mora win have any GARNET CROW songs?

At the countdown live, let's all jump into the river right in front of us!

>623 You go jump in by yourself, stop your heart, and die, dumbass.

How does Okamocchi make a living? He doesn't write lyrics or music for GARNET, so he shouldn't be bringing in much money. The songs he's provided to other artists haven't sold either. It's a mystery.

Because he gets a fixed salary plus royalties lol Obviously. He's not a freelancer lol

I listened to Miss Miss carefully a bunch of times, and sonically it wouldn't feel out of place on the third album. Even if Spare Rib is a dud, it's a matter of taste, so I'm glad this was a hit single lol

I love Yurippe more than anything.

But when you think about it, isn't Mochi kind of underappreciated? He can write lyrics and music, play guitar obviously, play drums, and do backing vocals. How did it come to this?

I wish he'd do a little more solo work.

If Mochi weren't a company employee, he couldn't keep doing music. He'd be no different from a middle-aged guy working part-time at Matsuya while dreaming of making it.

When you think about it, Yurippe's a lucky-pussy woman. She even saved Azuki, who was languishing in showbiz.

>629 GIZA never cultivated young people properly. There's not much Okamocchi can do about it either.

>629 There are tons of people like that.

>629 His looks and abilities are both too mediocre for him to make it at the top level.

For Mochi's next album, I want something raw with live vocals and acoustic guitar.

>GARNET CROW album “Title TBD” >2011.11.30

Yurippe is a virgin, right?

She's already been broken in.

This is exactly when Yurippe should put a whole bunch of used underwear up for charity auction. If you think about what would really help the disaster-stricken areas, you'd naturally reach that conclusion. This isn't the time to hesitate or be embarrassed. It's time for everyone to take a bold step forward.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Nakamura Yuri-sama I like you.

>638 Of course. I wouldn't be a fan otherwise. >640 Completely agree. People should do things for society instead of only thinking about themselves. I'm going to cancel my time deposit and bid too. I plan to sleep with it over my face.

There's no way someone as beautiful as Yuri-san is a virgin lol

Unless she's unusually strange, most beautiful women have “taken care of it” by around 23. Even among ugly women, virgins over 30 are rare.

The Conan opening and the CD version of “Misty Mystery” sound kind of different, right?

We'll be able to hear it soon.

“Taken care of it” sounds like such a virgin phrase. Cute.

At the countdown live, I want to have a mochi-pounding party with Yurippe. The mochi will of course be Okamochi.

Nice.

The twisted endings of “Misty” and “Hibi no Hotori” are the real essence of those songs, and I think that's where opinions split.

The ending of “Misty” is way too jarring.

More than that, something about the “Yume no Hitotsu” PV keeps bothering me.

>644-645 Yeah. She might be sleeping with her boss. Unless she's married, of course.

>648 Congrats on being a virgin. For fans, her getting with Mochi would be the easiest thing to accept. Anyway, let's not get hung up on this stupid stuff and enjoy the music.

Leader × Yurippe Nana-sama × Mochi These pairings would be more natural.

Why are you assuming people within the group are hooking up? lol “Sleeping with the boss”? What era do you think this is, the pillow-work era?

>653 What part?

Phew~

>657 I'd actually rather they date within the group. It's better than some weird old guy sleeping with them. Extramarital affairs between unmarried women in their thirties and their bosses happen all the time.

>658 Nana-san is kinda heartbreaking.

After the countdown, I wanna get New Year's money from Auntie Yurippe, o

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Yuri! I'm gonna cum inside!

Conan lololol get it together lololol http://twitpic.com/6n8ylt

That's ancient news. Not funny.

There's nobody around it, though.

（#￣３￣）

I wanna suck Yurippe's nipples.

>661 Maybe that's based on Nana-san's own experience.

I wanna have a threesome with Yurippe and Sugaya.

I'm thinking of joining for the countdown live. Will there be a lottery based on the number of tickets? I'd like to know what it was like last year.

>672 They had tons left over. They were dumping them on the day.

Last year, there were just a bunch of events competing for people's money at the end of the year, so fewer people decided to spend it on the countdown live. This year, the countdown seems to be the only event left, so the tickets will probably sell out eventually.

It'd be lonely if the countdown live were the only thing they did this year. I'd be happy with something like the Symphonic event or Ninnaji. The members must keep working every day because they have places like that where they can shine.

n\I wanna have a hotpot party at Azuki-san's place, o

Because the first countdown was a premium event, scalpers bought up a ton of tickets and the price collapsed last year. At the Shinsaibashi show, you could buy a ticket in the 800s for ¥500 on the day. That was the same as the cloakroom fee, o

It got that cheap? Compared to that, ¥8,000 is a bit much.

In the 2008 “lock on” live DVD, there was a shot of the bowing from behind where you could see all of Yurippe's thighs. Does the Barayuni live DVD have a straight-on rear angle of the bow during the first sheer white outfit?

Σ(￣□￣;)

My phone's camera died, so it won't scan QR codes.

The intro to “Akan tte ya, lalala Sorekara” is really good, but for some reason the chorus is a letdown.

Good morning, Azuki-chan.

It's Mochi's fault it started raining. Do something about it.

I'm gonna masturbate to Yurippe now.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

The rain keeps falling.

People who end their sentences with “o” or “da o” are gross.

I think Furui-san's keyboard performances could hold their own anywhere in the world. He's usually such a gentleman, so the contrast with how intense he gets when playing keyboard is the best. I love how he gets totally into it and expresses the music with his whole body.

The vocalist looked like a hostess from the very beginning. Songs like Koda's would suit her better than this kind of music.

Don't hide your aging with heavier makeup. I'm waiting for the day I can meet the real you, Yurippe...

Yurippe must have a hard time dealing with virgin fans too.

She gets to live well because of that, so don't pity her, scum.

Yurippe has always publicly said she draws a line between her Gane self and her private self. Basically, creepy otaku, don't pry into or even take an interest in her private life. Just listen to Gane.

>689 Within Being, I think he's an excellent arranger too. When you listen to ZARD, Furui's arrangements were what brought out Izumi Sakai's voice best.

>695 ...lol

No, that might not be entirely wrong. Hayama's arrangements were too bright right from the start, so they felt mismatched. But the old man's songs are few and far between, so I can't really say.

I don't care about your boring armchair-critic posts. Post pictures of Yuri and Nana already, you idiots. Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

Gane, are you gonna disband already~?

Yuri-san, I love you.

Yuri-san likes dogs.

Yurippe's parents tell her to hurry up and find a good man and get married. Well, that's only natural, I guess. She's 34.

I went to the post office at 9 this morning and paid for the countdown. I'll probably spend New Year's again this year watching Yurippe from the front row.

She's starting to look like the woman from “The Pearl Wife.” It's super sexy and great, o

Yokoyama Megumi? She doesn't look like her at all lol

The pervy stuff in this thread is completely harmless to Yurippe. In the real world, it just gets absorbed into the mainstream and ends there. Compared to AKB otaku, we must have it way easier.

>695-697 When it comes to ZARD arrangers, Hayama, Akashi, Ikeda, and Tokunaga are the major names, right? Furui too, but he only handled a few ZARD songs, if I remember correctly. The artist Furui's arrangements are by far the best for is probably Miho Komatsu(^o^)

>706 Easygoing = no desire to improve. At a normal company, you'd definitely get fired.

>703 Me too. Looks like we might end up next to each other.

Heh-heh. Me too.

A few years ago, some crappy live house ripped me off for ¥6,000 for a show. Then they took another ¥500 for a drink. Ever since, quitting being a crappy otaku has been nothing but good for me. Go bankrupt already.

>711 Go complain in the BREAKERZ thread lol

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnDR75nPddM “Sora ni Hanabi,” but the singing and makeup are way too good lol

Otodama is on TV right now, and her armpit sweat is intense.

Who's more popular, GARNET or Girl Next Door?

>711 Go to Yabun Eleven and ask, “Do you have any drinks for under ¥500?” Then say, “Sorry to bother you so late at Seven.”(´･ω･`)

Listening to GARNET CROW makes you depressed. The members are gloomy too, so can they only make songs like that?

>713 The ponytail does suit her, though.

This place reeks of virgins.

The ponytail is Yurippe's trademark. I also like her fluffy perm from the early days. Anyway, I like Yuri-san.

If you can't appreciate the goodness, worldview, and polish of GARNET CROW's songs, get out of this thread already. They're singers, yet they show their faces everywhere—hosting shows, appearing in commercials and on TV, dancing, performing—and can only attract people with their clothes, hairstyles, and other looks. Meanwhile, the actual songs are disappointingly shabby and amateurish. Go listen to those crappy Johnny's songs instead!

>720 They say ponytails cause baldness, so Yurippe might be thinning a little too.

>722 You can confirm that the hair above her ears was thinning at the 2008 live.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Yuri! I'm gonna cum inside!

GARNET's whole worldview includes Nana-sama's dark history, like the randoseru stuff, right?

That's Azuki's personal dark history.

>653 I had a vague feeling about that too. The gaps between shoots are so long (except for Furui-san), it kind of feels like there's a story.

I wanna have sex with Furui-san. I want him to cum inside me.

>721 An artist is the whole package: the songs, appearance, words, and actions, right? That's what I think.

>714 Whose?

Johnny's president wins “two awards”—Guinness World Records certification Johnny Kitagawa, president of Japan's Johnny's Office, was certified by Guinness World Records as a “new world record” holder for “the person who produced the most best-hit singles” and “the person who produced the most concerts.” The company announced on the 20th that Kitagawa produced 232 best-hit singles for more than 40 top Japanese musicians and produced 8,419 concerts between 2000 and 2010. “It's an astounding achievement,” the company said.

Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

Is the Umitomo band any good?

>729 My sperm isn't good enough?

Today is their fourth anniversary. Congrats.

Might as well masturbate first. I'll feel empty after I come, but that's life. If possible, I want to cum inside.

Daily singles chart *1　94,390　Hey! Say! JUMP I was late with the bank transfer lol

It was tough dealing with the heavy rain, but I made it home for Yurippe.

Do the members not listen to Japanese music?

The human-like forms of the monsters played by KAT-TUN's Kazuya Kamenashi (25) and the other leads have been revealed for the Nippon TV drama “Yōkai Ningen Bem” (Saturdays at 9 p.m.), which starts October 22. Kamenashi, who plays Bem, said confidently, “We were able to create a Bem suited to this era. It feels very natural to me, and I've already gotten used to it.” The theme song has also been set as KAT-TUN's “BIRTH.” New cast members Chiemi Hori (44), Morio Agata (63), and Akira Emoto (62) were announced as well.

Yurippe http://up.pandoravote.net/up/img/pandoraup00087833.jpg

>742 Who the hell is that? lol

>742 Her face is ugly, but her body is irresistible.

Let me say this loud and clear. I get that Yurippe and Nana-san are cute, but what is GARNET CROW? GARNET CROW isn't an idol group or a bunch of actresses. They're artists! You never talk about the songs those artists make. It's always Yurippe this, Nana-san that. Even live reports are all “her chest this” and “her arms that”... That's not it! There are more important things to talk about here, right? Now that you understand, hurry up and talk about Mochi and the old man!

>745 Relax.

I like GARNET CROW's songs, and I like Yurippe too. What's the problem? Besides, GARNET's songs aren't really something you discuss with other people. Everyone can enjoy them in their own way.

I can do anything for Yuri-san.

Thank goodness the typhoon was today. I'm looking forward to the Big Egg/Sashimari show.

Why did Ohga play guitar on so many of the early songs... As Mochi established himself as a guitarist, it feels like the range of the arrangements got narrower... Why are so many recent songs arranged by Furui-san alone... Why has Azuki-san's position become more unstable even though she's getting better at piano... Why did Yurippe reject Furui-san's arrangement when she was supposedly not involved in it at all... A band where every mystery leads to another mystery. And somehow, a band whose next release I'm ridiculously excited for. I love you, GARNET CROW.

http://up4.viploader.net/otakara/src/vlotakara011635.jpg

Looking at the October calendar, Azuki-san's boobs really are big. She's laying the sex appeal on thick.

>747 Exactly. Though Yurippe and Okamocchi did talk about Misty and the earlier songs in a magazine.

They played this on the radio earlier: “Lean, the sound rings out, turning black♪” Does anyone know the title?

>754 live

>754 live

>751 Kinda similar.

>745 was joking, but a bunch of people took the first half seriously, so I'll give a serious reply too. Rather than talking about Yurippe's vagina, saying you're about to masturbate, or talking about boobs, obviously discussing the songs is better. If everyone is supposed to enjoy things in their own way, then we can talk about how each of us felt about them. That's what every thread does, isn't it? Think calmly about which is better.

On an AKB show they showed Sumire Sato's room, and sure enough, her GARNET CDs were lined up.

No thanks.

>758 That's exactly right. But I guess I need to explain the bacteria in this thread too. About half the erotic posts, plus the people posting information about other artists, are all pointless trolls (anti-fan ops). Some of the Johnny's posts and the erotic posts are actually from the same person. They're probably the type who can't stop once they start trolling. Anyway, engaging with narrow-minded people gets you nowhere and only makes them happy, so just NG them. Seems like most of the reasonable residents are doing that now. And stop confusing things with pointless talk about “self-moderation” and whatever. If people just write more about GARNET CROW, the thread will naturally settle down. If you don't like that, go to somewhere like mixi.

>761 How about posting a proper source?

>760=>761 You have no right to watch, listen to, or talk about GARNET CROW. As punishment, spend every day trembling while savoring your own incompetence, stupidity, misery, and patheticness. Otherwise, go die. Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

Hope Gane crap disbands.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

>750 I agree with every bit of that so hard lol The fifth point—having the arrangement redone—is probably the answer to the second point, right? Like, “Your arrangements haven't had enough range lately.” Honestly, I'm sick of those “One Hundred Years of Solitude”-style guitar solos.

>742 Isn't this the AV actress Mikuru Shiina, who's really taking off right now with that tight, curvy body?

>751 I stripped first and only realized afterward that it was someone else. Give me back my descendants!

>761 It's fake because it doesn't include “Kanashimi no Sheol.”

Does Furui-san, who handles the arrangements, also come up with the piano and guitar parts?

The ending of “Misty” as aired on MJTV cut off sharply with no reverb. I wonder whether there's actually a version like that, or if MJTV chopped it off.

In the 2008 “lock on” live DVD, there was a rear shot of the bow where Yurippe's thighs were basically all visible. In the Barayuni live, when she wore the first sheer white outfit, didn't her skirt ride up when she bowed?

BBA, marry me!

>759 And she bought multiple copies lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDuAo625sXI#t=3m11s

Yeah, a lot of recent arrangements follow the pattern of electric guitar in the intro and dry drums afterward. You can't simply blame Furui for it; it could be intentional, to bring out the melodies and lyrics. But songs really do feel less lush without piano.

>776 You've got quite the complete collection there.

>752 She's beautiful, sexy, and talented. The world really is unfair.

Aki Hoshino (34) got married. Is Yurippe, who's the same age, okay? lol Is she really going to stay single for life?

>779 The dark history doesn't disappear, though.

Have you considered that they might already be married? Obviously both of them probably have someone.

Three CDs arrived from Amazon.

>783 What did you buy?

Aki Hoshino is older. Suu-chan, as expected!

**9th**　**3rd week**　*11,889　*14,535　Misty Mystery

The “Maji Power” making-of is cu●e.

Yuri-san is cu●e. Nana-san is cu●e.

>786 Not bad, I guess.

Yurippe is already married to Mochi.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nM_aSOIzJ1o Her favorite types of men are Junji Takada and Yuji Miyake... The fact that she doesn't name handsome actors or Johnny's guys really feels like her. Anyway, her facial features and the way she talks are exactly the same as ever(^o^) Nana-sama is wonderful.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

I wish they'd do the poster handout event again. I happened to be on an overseas business trip then.

I wanna marry Yuri-san.

>791 I think Azuki-san said at a fan-club event that Furui-san often makes old-man jokes... Furui-san is surprisingly—no, actually very much—her type, huh? Older, makes old-man jokes, and so on...

>782 That's the one thing they absolutely mustn't do. The fans would all leave.

I want a swimsuit photobook of Yuri-san.

Oh, I want one too. I'll buy three copies: one to look at, one to keep, and one to jerk off to.

Today's Kansai NHK FM radio show. They played “Kakurenbo.” It's normal for the members to go a month without seeing each other. Sometimes even two months. Apparently, once an arrangement or lyrics are finished, they just get left in the studio without anyone noticing. The rest was probably stuff they've talked about on other radio shows too.

Yuri! I'm gonna marry you!!

I've been really into “Hibi no Hotori” lately. For some reason, listening to it makes me feel strangely calm. What a great song.

>776 GARNET is giving it a graceful pass.

■B'z Official Facebook Page — Request from the staff At the station on the way back to Tokyo after the Sendai show, a lot of fans were making a huge fuss trying to touch the exhausted members. What was most embarrassing was seeing B'z fans bothering other customers. The members said during the MC that we should all work hard together, but the reality is that there are so many people who only care about themselves. It was disappointing. Everyone, why not take another look at your own behavior?

Furui-san lives in Kansai, but he hasn't absorbed any of it at all. It might be funny if he spoke in Kansai dialect once in a while.

>803 The way they say “without anyone noticing” is pretty amazing lol

>809 Worse than Johnny's otaku lol The Big Egg two-day run is finally tomorrow.

When I think of autumn, I think of “Natsu no Maboroshi.”

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

>807 I totally get it. They sang it live too, and I love it.

>776 GARNET fans really are smart, huh.

Bow down before Nana-sama, a Kyoto University graduate.

Yes, ma'am m(_ _)m

I love “Naked Story,” but I almost crack up at the “Yay yay yay yay-yay-e” part.

I can't stop stripping completely naked and doing the “Naked Story” dance by myself after a bath.

Sounds pretty fun lol

>820 It might feel nice in autumn lol

>817 The university they graduated from, their family home, and stuff like that pop up occasionally, but it's all just made-up bits, right?

Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

My expedition prep is basically done. The souvenirs for my blog friends are heavy lol

The number of uchiwa and my concert outfit have filled up my suitcase lol I'm bringing spare batteries for my glow stick.

>620 I'll try it now lol It's getting dark, so should we do it outside?

Ugh lololol, I don't have enough souvenirs lol Anyone who got one at Kyocera Dome, skip them lol

My mistake. >820

Daily singles chart *1 *1→*1　27,122　Hey! Say! JUMP

>827 It's way too cold today. Make do with the Miss Holiday dance.

The Miss Holiday dance diet really works.

That made me laugh lol

Hope Gane crap disbands.

When “wish” comes on while I'm driving, I can't help doing the choreography. Then I often make eye contact with people in oncoming cars.

“fill away” has a really cool arrangement when you listen closely. It gets buried on the fourth album, but with her current voice on something like Para Uni, it might stand out quite a bit.

GARNET's songs have so many layers of guitar that they probably need support musicians at live shows. But I still want to see a live with just Mochi on guitar.

I want the next song to have that fragile, fleeting GARNET feeling. Something like “Maboroshi.” The recent songs are boring.

>837 Ohga-san making an appearance? He seems like the type who'd wink at Yurippe.

Yuri-san is way too beautiful...

>838 Smiley, Misty, and LIV all have that fragile, fleeting feeling. You don't get it?

It's a matter of atmosphere.

GARNET feels more warm and cozy than dark to me. “Kimi no Ie,” “Senshijo,” “Wasurezakura,” “Sky Blue,” and so on.

At the Barayuni live, Yurippe wore that first sheer white outfit. There was a post before saying that when the light hit her from behind, you could see something like white boxer briefs. Could you really see something like underwear? And how many centimeters above her knees was it sheer?

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

If they sometimes go a month without seeing each other, does that mean they don't even have to show up for work?

>803 >The members going a month without seeing each other is normal. Sometimes even two months. Maybe it means that if they get too close, they become too cozy and it doesn't work? They sound really close on the radio, though. I guess they each have their own circles and relationships outside the group.

Normally band members see each other almost every day... but with GARNET, each member has their own job too.

I see them every day.

>847 If you listen to the Gane radio, they really don't sound close at all lol There are way too many pauses between people talking. You can definitely tell that Okamocchi and Furui-san are really close, though.

Radio has to be careful about all kinds of things—banned words, discriminatory terms, stuff that gets the right wing worked up—so it can't be helped. If they talked the way they do normally, their lives would be over lol

>850 What about Okamocchi and Yuri-san, or Nana-san and Yuri-san? They sounded pretty close, but we don't really know what they're like in reality. >851 The appeal of radio is supposed to be its looser broadcast restrictions, so that's a shame.

Mocchi and Furui-san probably work together pretty often. There are rumors about Nana-san and Yurippe going to some Okinawan traditional restaurant together, but I wonder if there's anything to them.

Is this really worth worrying about? Just think about your own relationships at work.

Nana-san seems like the type who'd be off somewhere around Libya.

I want to cum inside Nana-sama. I want to teach her the joys of being a woman.

Artists probably shouldn't get too buddy-buddy with each other.

That's not true.

What are you expecting from salaried artists? They're just coworkers, normally. Are you guys middle-schoolers or something?

I don't need them to be close, but I do want to know what kind of relationship they've built. The men seem close to each other, and the women seem close to each other too. Though you can't trust the impression they give in the media.

Lick lick Yurippe's bare legs.

Nana & Mochi Furui & Yurippe These pairings actually seem like they'd get along pretty well. Is Yurippe the universal character?

Mana Ashida, who earns ¥80 million a year, is there too.

Good morning to the most beautiful Azuki-chan in the world. Though her way of talking back in the Sugaya-san days sounded like an old lady(T_T)

>860 The more mysterious she is, the more you want to know.

>863 Mana-chan in tights is insanely moe.

I paid for the countdown last week and booked a hotel. I couldn't go last time, so I'm really looking forward to it. By the way, is the next album tour happening this year? Or next year?

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

Cute.

I want to go to an amusement park with Mana-chan.

>863 She doesn't look like her at all. Get down on your knees and apologize.

The clothes, expression, the way she makes the peace sign, hairstyle, ribbon— they're all similar lol It's like I'm looking at Yurippe's future.

Go see an eye doctor or a neurosurgeon. Your eyeballs or brain are seriously messed up.

>874 Strongly agreed.

I want to marry Yurippe and have a kid like Mana-chan.

Could Yurippe actually respect Hisamoto and be imitating her? Is it too early to jump to that conclusion?

Hiyori Shiraishi looks a lot like early Yurippe, but compared to Hiyori-chan, Yurippe's body is kinda disappointing, o

Artists and idols often get overwhelmed and cry toward the end of a live show. Has Yurippe ever cried?

When it gets toward the end, she gets overwhelmed and turns into a total sadist.

You cried after “Yume Mita Ato de,” right?

I want to tour Kyoto's temples and shrines with Yuri-san, then eat a lunchbox she made herself.

>863 It doesn't not look like her when you view the thumbnails. Especially the sitting pose in the first one.

When is the separate Nakamura Yuri issue coming out already?

Yurippe actually hates temples and that incense-heavy atmosphere.

Counterpoint: Ninnaji.

Hope Gane crap disbands.

AZUKI 888(^^)v

I think Yuri-san is an angel who descended to Earth.

I'm feeling lazy~

Are there really no events besides the countdown?

Why Air Hon?

About how many people were at the Abeno event?

The queue numbers were just under 400, so around 450 including everyone else, maybe?

BBA, marry me!

That person named Raimu from the Nana gathering is creepy.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

What other music do GARNET CROW fans listen to?

>899 George Winston, Björk. For Japanese music, X JAPAN. I don't think there's any common thread lol

>899 Mozart, Mahler, and Beethoven sometimes. For Japanese music, moumoon. I think there is a common thread lol

Is it bad that after GARNET CROW, I like Morning Musume.!?

I come to the Gane thread, but I listen to AKB lol

Me, EXILE.

From a Chinese site GARNET CROW's new single release decided!! 1 Like the Wind Blowing Through the Celestial Sphere 2 Headless Hawk 3 ???? TBD

↑ I hurriedly brought over only the parts I could understand. Forgot to sage, sorry. It was a weird, heavy site, and it was Chinese, so sorry if this is wrong. But I looked up the second song and a Capote novel title came up, so I figure that's probably it. Personally, I think “Tenkyū” in the A-side title might be ateji. Judging from the way Yurippe sings it.

Yurippe looks like volleyball player Saori Kimura.

Why is the info faster in China than in Japan lol

>906 Anyway, how about posting the source URL?

Maybe they can't make an official announcement in Japan? Over there, they just leak information right away.

Without a source, nobody's going to believe it.

>906 Capote is right. The guy who wrote Breakfast at Tiffany's, right?

>900-904 Everyone's tastes are pretty broad lol

Sorry, my PC got slow, so it was probably just a troll site. Forget >905-906. Come to think of it, there was also some member talk about an album and stuff.

Don't do half-assed trolling lolol

>914 Is it fake? The Chinese internet is full of viruses.

>899 >900 I have some George Winston too. Other artists I like and listen to a lot are Miho Komatsu, Tsukiko Amano, Ikuzo Yoshi, Minami Kijō, and Shinsei Kamattechan. For Western music, Marilyn Manson, Seal, Mariah Carey, Manic Street Preachers, Prodigy... I could go on forever, but everyone's tastes really are broad (^o^)

I've been way too busy lately to come to this crappy thread. Gane crap, disband already. Ripoff scam.

?

>863 I get what you're saying.

Gane crap, disband already.

If they did a tour, what kind of capacity would the venues need?

>921 Same here.

I want them to do a tour of the three great castles: Edo Castle, Nagoya Castle, and Osaka Castle.

>899 Spitz, Spitz.

If the countdown is all they have this year, GIZA's gonna go under.

Companies don't go under that easily lol

GIZA has made massive staff cuts—some departments lost nearly half their people—and offices in several buildings are now just empty space. With the management side in that state, it's only natural that artists who were doing half-assed activities got fired too. Even though GARNET CROW's singles have stayed steady at around 10,000 copies, if they don't put out a “hit,” it's only a matter of time before they suspend activities too. You can't just assume they're safe because GARNET CROW seems to be the only popular one.

Seriously?

>928 So they got laid off. Maybe GIZA really is finished.

>905 For real info!? I don't care if it's an illegal site, I want more details.

I reluctantly went to karaoke as a social obligation from work. It was boring and I was getting stressed out, so when it was my turn to sing, I said, “I'm entering my own world, so don't mind me,” then sang “Mr Horiday” at full power with choreography. Everyone was shocked by the contrast. They said they never thought I'd dance because I'm usually so quiet. Starting the next day, everyone began inviting me out after work, and people started talking to me a lot more at work too.

I mean, even if GIZA goes under, Being should still be okay, right? Let's stay optimistic, just like Yurippe.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

>933 It'll be okay, but all the members are moving to Tokyo.

Because they've got B'z, their biggest moneymaker.

If they come to Tokyo, I think they'll get more decent work than they do now. Kuraki's media exposure shot way up after she moved to Tokyo, and depending on the agency's plans, they might even get booked together with B'z.

Is Nana any good at playing instruments?

Nana-sama really suits a randoseru and a recorder, huh.

They only did the Mr. Holiday dance at the tenth anniversary, right? Have they sealed it away?

“Mr. Holiday” isn't on Crosso, right?

So is >905 actually legit or not? Chinese sites have always been first with the news, right? When “Hana wa Sakuite” came out, people called it trolling too, but it turned out to be real.

There hasn't been an official announcement, so there's no way to know if it's real.

It's real. Chinese sites don't make mistakes like that.

At least there's no reason for them to make it up.

Since they haven't shown the source, we don't even know if this is really information from “China-sama.”

If it was a Chinese CD online shop kind of site, it'd be pretty reliable. But it could just be scribbles on a message board like this one, so who knows.

http://www.dmm.co.jp/mono/dvd/-/detail/=/cid=soe615/ Doesn't this guy look like Yurippe?

The “looks like her” crowd is getting annoying.

Apparently the JUMP guys went straight to Las Vegas as soon as their show ended lol Will their winter concert be all about the souvenirs?

>905 The fact that “Kanashimi no Sheol” isn't included proves it's false information.

What's the point of finding out release info before the official announcement? Are you running a CD shop or something?

>954 You can start saving up for GaneCraw now, dumbass.

“strangers” is such a god-tier song, Yuri-san...

>955 You should've been saving up regularly anyway. And if it's just the price of a CD, anyone with a normal job or part-time job can afford it.

Tsunku is criticizing Yurippe. Tsunku-san responded, “I don't think the ‘antennae’ among the five rules are necessary for someone who wants to become a true national idol. They're a kind of trick.” He went on to insist, “If you're truly cute and confident in yourself, you should still be cute even with your forehead and cheekbones fully exposed.”

>954 You imagine the song from the title.

Sashimari is getting a DVD release!!

They're singers and artists, not trying to be idols, so who cares? Their singing voices are great, and I think all their hairstyles so far have been pretty cute too (though I think they'd be cute with their hair up as well). They're professionals—or rather, adults—so if they think that kind of hairstyle looks better, they'll do it.

>960 Wouldn't it be too late to imagine the song after accurate information comes out officially? Even if you're imagining it under the wrong title, it feels kind of disappointing. Maybe the wasted effort is part of the fun, though. Wouldn't it suck if you thought it was a Gane song with a title by Nana, but it turned out to be a title thought up by someone who isn't interested in Gane at all?

ww No, lol, you were nitpicking so hard that I just tried writing something a little more polished. I was wondering what kind of thing would satisfy you lol

10/2 (Sun.) Nittere 19:00-21:54 Masahiro Nakai of SMAP and Shinichi Hatori thoroughly investigate “Japan's Little-Known Schools”! Amazing schools never before shown on TV and hugely popular schools of today are appearing one after another! ▽ The No. 1 idol school in showbiz, “Johnny's Jr.”! The secrets of Johnny's Jr., hidden behind a veil until now, will finally be revealed! Masahiro Nakai will teach you how to get in based on his own experiences!! He'll even sneak into a lesson for the first time! 10/2 (Sun.) BS Skapa 21:00-21:54 “Johnny's Love Island” They overlap lol

>959 No doubt he's criticizing Yurippe. I won't forgive Tsunku!

I forgot to buy “Weekly Nakamura Yuri.”

>964 I just write down what I honestly think about posts too, and want to see how everyone reacts to my opinions, that's all (^o^) Maybe it's because I'm getting older, but lately I often come off as fake or preachy... But deep down, I just simply like Gane.

They used to work hard to promote themselves, with Garnet Time and blog updates and all, but lately there's been nothing at all. It's lonely. Have they lost their motivation? Or maybe they got married and now have something to protect, so they don't want to take risks?

I'm grateful enough that they keep going consistently, though.

>905 So there is a new song coming out. Are they planning to release it at the end of the year and make everyone buy a ton at the countdown?

The next release is the album coming out in November.

Suikappu's Eri Furuse (33) got married and pregnant. I think Yurippe should seriously start feeling the pressure.

http://kanasoku.blog82.fc2.com/?mode=m&no=20091 Is number 14 this Nana?

>974 Probably.

Gonna do my best again today for Yuri-san.

>957 I never thought you'd take it seriously.

So this is what they call a serious reply?

>978 Bored d

I messed up the one in 979. I was bored, so I just wanted to see whether >955 was someone who likes joking around or someone with no sense of planning, and see the reaction.

Gonna do my best again today for Tanari-san.

The new song title is nice. Looks like we might finally get to enjoy some wistful lyrics again.

People in the Miho-tan thread are getting excited about Furu-san and Miho-tan being siblings...

Who the hell is Miho-tan?

Gane crap, disband already.

I want to tour Kyoto's temples and shrines with Yuri-san, then eat a lunchbox she made herself at noon.

Still no announcement about the winter concert?

I applied for the countdown without thinking it through... I wonder if I'll even make it to Osaka...

New unit “Sexy Zone.”

Big sis Yurippe.

>983 They look alike, so they are siblings. Their face shapes and everything are the same. Miho Furui? Hiroto Komatsu?

Still busy even after summer's over. Waiting for Imperial Theater spoilers.

>992 Die, you old hag!!

Must check the wide show tomorrow!! Is Bale-Yuni going septic?

Will they announce it at the Imperial Theater tomorrow? Tomorrow's Nippon Seinenkan final show ends at the matinee, so Puma should be able to appear too.

I wanna hear the new song.

I like Yurippe's straightforward singing style. Not a cutesy style, but a sincere, direct way of singing. You can feel how pure she is.

N-n-next thread, please.

If this is 999, I can marry Yuri-san.

If this is 1000, I can have sex with Yurippe raw.
