Dear Readers,

HAPPY NEW YEAR (2012)

What a way to sorta tease you all huh? Yes this is 1 year “late” so to speak, but that’s besides the point =P

Big *hugs* to Chibusasa for taking on this huge project. As snoboat was the original Translator, but life comes first so he’s out for now.

And another thanks goes out to Atron for aiding us in Timing this sucker as man are there a lot of lines.

But it all comes together to make one hell of a great DVD.

Description:
There are 3 Games that the Members of H!P participate in to win.
1. Tissues
2. Guard Dog
3. Sneezing (Had to add in the “A-choo” cause it’s hilarious)

No need to details, just got to download and watch for the priceless expressions that are shown.

And YES! the Tissue Drop was played at Hello!Party 2, again thanks to Jenn/Bry for hosting as well as those that helped set up the games.

Enjoy!

PS:
Although we started off the Year with an epic release, don’t really expect much from us for who knows how long. Yes I know I always say this, but it’s true, and sometimes it’s just unpredictable as to when we get lucky and our Translators/Tomo-chan has free time to surprise me with a project.

But just letting you all know H!F will try to stay alive as long as possible, I simply can’t let it die even if motivation/fandom is in the pits. But no worries, our friends over at MSP/TPF/KIDS are active and bringing you tons/lots of goodies. We’ll still continue to bring you your Dosage of AKBINGO! with AIDOL, as well as TRY to get a few things out of our own. So stay tuned and thanks again for everyone’s support! HUGE HUGE Shout out to AJ O. You know why ^_^

PPS:
If there are any interested Translators, it’s never too late, but please, if interested, that you’ll stick around, had numerous applicants that join and then just disappear >

Dear Readers,

Holy crap is this ancient!

But it’s finally done. I have to quote Chibusasa on this one:
“It’s only taken about 9 months but finally finished translating the fricking rokkies DVD! Hurray to myself!”

Anyway, celebrating Reina’s Birthday, here’s Rokkies first DVD together, yes it’s taken us forever to even really touch/finish it but it’s finally here.
The date is pretty cool of release as well, 11/11/11 ^_^

You know in times of when Old School content isn’t really cared for much at all. So this will probably be the same =/

It’s interesting how they did this, as it feels sooo “different” to most DVD’s we’re used to watching. The jump cuts can get a bit annoying.

Below I’ll list the Titles.

Description:
“To You”
“Ishigaki”
“Quishimbo”
-Basically get shots of each member eating different fruits.
“Jitensha”
-Watch them riding bikes.
“Water”
-The girls play in the pool with water guns. Video gets a bit Wonky during this port and you’ll see what I mean.
“Hanabi”
-They wear Yukata’s while enjoying fireworks. Eri wants to run around… and she DOES!
“Kamei”
“Game”
-They play the classic game of… JENGA!
“Natural”
-They go on a boat that has a see-through bottom.
“Earth”
“Tanaka”
“Angel”
“Dream”
-Basically just talking about the things they like as well as what they want to be when they grow up. What Sayu says near the end is true.
“Laugh”
“Volleyball”
-Not really Volleyball but they do constantly throw it at the cameraman. And then awkward shots of them sleeping.
“Michishige”
-All that’s needed to be said, “I can drown.”
“Cool”
“Face”
“Play”
“Lies”
“River”
“Z”
-Talk about their shoot in Ishigaki.
“Ocean”
-This portion is Wonky as well, no idea why they edited this way.
“Sunset”
“Extra”
-Just random clips during their photoshoot.

Enjoy!

PS:
We’re aware that there was the other Rokkies Extended DVD that was done recently, we’re on that as well, hopefully it won’t take us another 9 months. But we’ll start (translating) that whenever we finish our other projects ^_^

Dear Readers,

Holy crap! It’s finally here!!!

Sorry for the extremely long delay on this… snoboat had stuff come up that couldn’t be helped so we had to switch Translators, so big thank you to Chibusasa for coming through.

What timing too right? As of this release it’s been exactly 6 Months since the event took place!!!

Well, grab if you like, sorry, with stuff that’s been going on on my end, just not too happy to really go much into detail and whatnot, so here you have it.

Those who were psyched about the MM America’s Landing DVD, this one does a pretty okay job in comparison, although doesn’t beat out MM’s simply because it is too straight forward and doesn’t show too much of the fans like MM’s did.

(If you rather read more about the DVD itself, just scroll down past the – - – - – -, as anything above that is dedication stuff)

I’m not going to list out each individual that I met during the event like before (Sorry, I know it makes you feel more special), but basically this release is dedicated to ALL those that I’ve had the excellent pleasure of meeting + getting to know better. You all definitely know who you are, if I met you, you’re one of them.

Though I do have to point out a few people (No particular order):
Aaron: Huge thanks to you for asking me to join ya, as I know without you, I 100% wouldn’t have gone.
Jenn/Bryan: Come on, Hello!Party 2 (not only that, come on you had one heck of an awesome Wedding and I just feel honored for being able to attend it)
Tomasz: For giving me your Sunday signing ticket, huge thank you!
Alfred: You had extra Booklet, I got from you, and got it autographed. (More or less you were just hilarious to be around, you creeper (pictures))
Daigong: Always thought we had that grudge with JPHIP, but glad that all changed.
Takeo: Was arge at you from MM in LA (You remember!) but this more than made up for that event =) Tuxedo Kamen!!!!
Luna: Being my awesome “UGLY” lil sis and semi-showing us around the area with Maggie.
Hugh: You’ve got to be added here, supplied me with the DVD to make this release possible!

So thanks to the above, and again, everyone else that I was able to meet as well as hang out with. Without you all, my experience there wouldn’t have been as ENJOYable!
(Priceless moment is still Takeo’s confession, right? (Only a selected few know what that refers to =P))

Release Description (by Aka Reiko!):
It’s that time again! H!P saw fit to send another act to America, and now, Hello!Fansubs proudly presents the subtitled version of the DVD from that event.

On April 19th, Seattle and Sakura-con learned what it meant to host an idol when they brought Berryz Koubou. While this DVD does not cover everything that happened over Easter weekend of 2011, it does do a good job painting a picture, even of some things the fans themselves did not know about.

The DVD has footage from a press event on the first day of Convention, most of us had no idea Berryz did this, but it makes sense that they did. It then has footage of the girls all signing the big banner that was given out as a raffle prize to one lucky person and doing the staff signing, these were all things that we fans had no access to. It also has footage of the girls walking around Seattle that we were already shown in a Hello! Pro Hour.

Unlike the Morning Musume in America DVD, this DVD follows a different format, the concert is kept as one big block instead of being interspersed amongst backstage footage. The DVD involves some very good footage of the Q&A, while it doesn’t involve some things that I personally wish it did (such as Captain doing a little hip-hop dance and then her and Chinami beatboxing), it does involve things that everyone should enjoy. (Writers note: Pay close attention to the blinking contest between Momoko and a fan, try telling me that she isn’t so adorable the whole time.) After that we have some footage of the first signing.

The concert is nearly complete, they kept the MCs in tact, including Chinami’s surprise for us, they showed Berryz telling us what to yell out, they showed nearly everything, all that was cut was the first song. Though that is unfortunate, I know there were mic issues and I think they weren’t able to get a good recording, as during that whole song Risako’s mic was cutting out.

Then we have some footage from the second signing, this footage is more personal, we are shown a little Momoko fan presenting Momoko with a sign and get to see that signing, as well as seeing iceymoon and her husband running down the aisle holding up their new prized autograph, and a brief interview, it was really nice to see them interviewing actual fans for this one.

After that there is some footage from the raffle drawing at which Captain was mere feets in front of us as she picked the names for the drawing, they didn’t include much of Captain interacting with the fans, but they did include a nice panning shot of the crowd gathered there for Berryz. (Which you can see via Picture, SC’s (hand)heart is up)

Finally we are given some off-shot type footage which involves the girls just having fun. Personally, I feel this DVD is put together very very well and I like the flow of it.

I’ve tried to keep this description objective, but I have to say, I wish they included our “riot”. Sakura-con had no idea what they were in for. An amazing DVD detailing an amazing weekend.

ENJOY!

- OooO~ had to mention, gotta love Chibusasa, wonder if you guys can spot the area where her Aussie side gets the best out of her. I just had to leave it as is =P
- For the English portions, if we got what you said wrong, sorry, just hard to figure it out from either excitement, ambient sounds.

PS:
For those that might’ve missed out on some of the excitement that took place here’s the “Berryz Riot” that took place after the Concert:

Dear Readers,

Special thanks:
Tomasz S.

Seriously got to love LONG Concert titles ^^
“MC5 – Iida Graduation (H!P ’05 Winter All-Stars Dairanbu ~A HAPPY NEW POWER! Iida Kaori Sotsugyou Special~)”

What is there to say? Got to kick it super old school and give some love to Johnso- I mean Iida.

Only doing one MC from this concert as it’s the most important one + requested.
(Just trying to get done with the few MC’s we got left as TPF will be taking over the MC’s scene)

Anyway, onto this MC.

You get the Kaori call for a good minute and a half.

Then onto the touching messages from the members as they bid Iida farewell.

Enjoy!

PS:
Will probably make another release in the week as after that, going on another break as we close to have 0 Translators atm.

Chibusasa is the only one for now and she’s got a few major projects under her sleeves, not sure when those will be done, but even then, we’ll be on another hiatus.

It happens =/

Dear Readers,

Damn~ This was a NICE project to do with TPF was a lot of work and effort put into it.

So I’d like to give a HUGE thanks to SFGundam for the translations, Tomo-chan for the semi-last minute karaoke’s and my sempai, zeldAIS, for helping me out a bit on the TS’ing as we wanted to put all our love into this project and I hope it shows when you watch it.

Enjoy this to the fullest as we gave it the full treatment! Rare for us to Karaoke a Movie, but thought this was super special so had to call in a favor from Tomo-chan and her bajillion list of PV’s for her other groups.

Description (by SFGundam):
A mysterious notice came to the Metropolitan Police Department saying that Morning Musume will be murdered.

The MPD ordered in 3 of the infamous Zenigata Sisters, Kai, Mei and Yui. They look like high school girls but they are called Keitai Deka (Cell Phone Detectives).

The 3 went to a Morning Musume concert to be their bodyguards. After the concert, they went with Morning Musume to their hotel.

However, they have to go through the Golgotha Forest. Upon arriving at the hotel, all the Morning Musume members as well as Mei disappear…

This movie is part of the Keitai Deka series which Horikita Maki and Miyazaki Aoi was also a part of.

The 3 are ordinary looking high school girls but have the brains to be one of the best detectives.

Enjoy the in-movie jokes, cunning plans, as well as the cuteness from all 3 girls!

Of course, don’t miss out Morning Musume’s performances and acting!

Enjoy!

MC3 – Talk with C-ute
(Mai-chan sure is rude, how can you do that to Chisato?)

MC4 – Berryz Awards
(Chinami doesn’t like it when it’s quiet…)
(Captain is such a nice person)
(What is Risako going on about saying, “Wouldn’t you prefer me in that case?”)

MC7 – Wild Answers With Mano Erina and S/mileage:
(There really are some wild answers, especially when a Bomb is brought into the picture)

MC8 – Closing

And we wanted to get this released on this special day of both you and Bryan!!!

So from all of us from H!F we hope you ENJOY your wedding as both snoboat and I will be there to watch the special event.
For those that can’t take part at the actual event, no worries you can catch it live!

Description (by SFGundam):
A devil’s job is to whisper words into humans.

With the angels, they both create decision for humans in order them to grow as a person.

5 devils, Selen, Lily, Asira, Olia, and Mel are studying at the Devil Academy with their hopes of graduating and becoming first-class devils.

However, with countless failures of whispering devilish words to humans, their hopes of graduating are floating away.

That is when the principal of the Devil Academy, Satan, gives the girls a test to see if they can graduate from the Academy.

Can the 5 devils work together to complete this test and graduate?

This musical was a very fun musical. Lots of great songs (some that I want on a CD…), funny jokes, and a little history.

It brings out different traits of each member of C-ute so you might found a new member to love or love your favorite one even more!

Enjoy!

PS:
Huge thanks goes out to both SFGundam/snoboat for working on these songs as for some the lyrics could not be found, so they did their best to get what they could.

So I hope you all enjoy this marvelous release and stay tuned for the upcoming TWO weeks, as we at H!F are doing what we do at random times, mini-Release spree to satisfy your H!P fandom ^_^

Dear Readers,

What is there to say?

There’s a showdown between the real Ai-chan and then with Aidriod.

They have a showdown to see who is better at doing Tongue Twisters as well as just Trivia.

It is quite scary and one can mistaken Aidriod as the real thing.

This is a must for Ai-chan fans as what’s better than one Ai-chan? 2!
