  1. 1st one: "ãれã§ç§ãŒã¿ã‚“ãªã®ãƒ€ãƒ³ã‚¹ã‚’ã¡ã‚‡ã£ã¨è¦‹ã‚‹ã¿ãŸã„ãªä¿‚ã«ãªã£ã¦ã‹ã‚‰ã™ã”ã表情ãŒè±Šã‹ã«ãªã£ã¦ãã¦ã€‚ãれãŒã†ã‚Œã—ãã¦æ³£ããªãŒã‚‰ã€Œã‚ˆã‹ã£ãŸã‚ˆãƒ¼ï¼ã€ã£ã¦è¨€ã£ãŸã¤ã‚‚りã ã£ãŸã‚“ã§ã™ã€‚" "Once I became in charge of checking everyone's dances, our expressions became more rich. Since I was so happy about that, I meant to say 'I'm glad!'" (You were mostly correct but this is just how I would word it) 2nd one: "Yeah. As soon as I became a part of BiS, I had a dream of being in the top two position with Pour-chan. Even after I went to Gang Parade, somewhere in my heart I felt that I still wanted to make that dream come true. So my straightforward feelings towards Pour Lui is 'Stop messing around'. What was that about when you said you would crush us? So a while back in some interview, I said 'I want to continue being in Gang Parade', but it's because after hearing about her graduation there was something on my mind, or I guess I can say there was a change in how I felt" (Since Japanese doesn't really have swear words, I translated 'fuzakeruna' as 'stop messing around' but I think it can also be translated as 'stop f*cking around') 3rd one: "Before, after we got tons of blisters on our feet it was 'We have to go!' but I thought 'So for these six members that's the kind of 'I have to go' (laughs)"
  2. Oh nice! The director of the pv is the same as the director for 'Orchestra' and 'My landscape' so no wonder it's really good lol. lol at Chittiii's tweet: "I love the song, outfits, and MV so much. It was directed by Director Ohkita who also directed Orchestra and My Landscape. He's always full of love and I love it!" I know it's just a regular comment but because of the comments I translated a few days ago that was saying "there is no love for BiSH in this video" for PiB, it seems like a jab at the other director lol.
  3. LOL The original "Black to the Dreamlight" PV is unable to air on TV so they made a TV-safe one as well. And on EMPiRE's twitter the hastag was "#Of course there's a deficit although that's already become WACK's specialty but we really want everyone to listen to it and we have confidence so please download it and give them the number 1 spot" Akarui Mirai is still my favorite PV but I'm like this gory-ish PV as well lol. I think I just live that I can't really predict what they'll come up with next.
  4. Congrats to BiSH for getting #1 on Oricon weekly for the first time! edit with member's comments: Aina We got #1 on Oricon weekly. Our first time. Thank you. Chittiii "!!!!! This is the first time BiSH got weekly #1 since we formed. I'm very happy,, Thank you for always supporting us" Ling Ling "PAiNT iT BLACK that was released on March 28th got #1 spot on weekly Oricon. Thank you. I'm so happy!!! First time. Thank you! Happy." Momoko "Good morning. Congrats on getting #1 on Oricon. Thank you." Hashiyasume "BiSH's 3rd major single, 'PAiNT it BLACK' got the #1 spot on Oricon weekly!!! Our first weekly #1!!! This is the #1 spot we all got together!!! Thanks! I'm so happy!!!! Thanks!!!!!" Ayuni just retweeted Oricon's tweet.
  5. Yeah same I actually like it. Like you mentioned I think it's the mismatched randomness that makes me like it. Since the title is PAiNT iT BLACK, I think the director was trying to create a contrast? Like the colorful party-like outfits are "painted black" and they're wearing the all black dresses. It seems like they're trying new things (as usual lol) with PiB. They used a director who is still a college student, Matsukuma said he wanted to try something new by making Ayuni the main, and the choreographer isn't Aina, but a dancer. I like this dance but I had a feeling it wasn't Aina who made the choreography because she usually repeats the same move/set of moves throughout one chorus but this time it wasn't like that. I can't help but wonder what her choreography would've looked like :/
  6. Usually "kabuse" refers to singing on top of CD vocals. But not sure if that's what it's supposed to mean in this comment though. Also, I looked through the youtube comments for PAiNT iT BLACK and it seems like Japanese fans love the song but dislike/hate the PV. One comment: [+97] "The director must have no interest in BiSH. I don't feel any taste or respect. This may be there worst one yet including their indie days" -->[+31] There is 100x more love for BiSH in the MV where they get poop thrown at them -->[+8] Completely agree -->[+7] This video would work even if it wasn't for PiB -->[+1] Completely agree There are so many comments similar to this. I think 'My Landscape' was just too good lol.
  7. In the first few seconds it says "This is the episode that aired on Dec 12" so it's the same episode. I wish they will guest on it again though. About Aya's major debut comment, I think she means that since she was in Gang Parade and GP didn't make their major label debut yet, she knows how difficult it is to make it big as a whole group. And about Gozeela's "It's fine" thing. It should be: "Rather than not being interested, I just thought 'She looks like she's doing well'" And the last comment about Aya's heart: "What should I do? If I look at it my heart (will hurt)" In my last post I commented about watching Gang Parade without missing Aya but I think it's like Peri mentioned here, the current Aya feels like a different Aya. This is really interesting. They swapped clothes and made a few changes. It's similar, yet I didn't realize it lol. The stockings challenge(?) this is fairly common on Japanese TV shows but Maika doing it for just one song was so random that I thought there might be a reason but I guess it's one of those things WACK does that doesn't have an explanation. On twitter, Watanabe said something like "It's strange how Gang Parade still doesn't get any offers from major labels" lol. Yeah, Hashiyasume surprised me with PAiNT iT BLACK but she said that she wanted to be a "gal" so I'm sure she's been wanting to try those kinds of looks.
  8. Watching Gang Parade's performance always gets me pumped up. Their energy is amazing. And it's really strange how Aya was one of my favorite members when she was in GP but I strangely don't really miss her when watching the performance. Rather than Kamiya "replacing" her, it feels like Kamiya never left and all the songs are supposed to be performed like this. And is there a reason why Maika put stockings on her head while performing? lol. translation of Maika, Pan, and Momoko's comments during each of their lives (not after the results of the audition): Maika: “I took part in the WACK training camp, being told to be overwhelming. I thought winning was everything, but that was wrong. Whenever I win, there was always my friends/groupmates (nakama) around me. Because they’re there, I’m there. I was able to realize that. And if you work hard, you will get your answer. It’s something simple but I was able to realize it. I was the only member from Gang Parade who went, and I wasn’t able to win, but my members were always what supported me emotionally. Up until now, I seeked for perfection so much that I wasn’t able to express my emotions and struggled. But from now on, I’ll become someone who will be loved. Lastly, please listen to the song that started Gang Parade, ‘Plastic 2 Mercy’â€. Pan: “I took part in the WACK training camp because I hated how I could never come out of my shell and wanted to change. I ate a lot of death sauce, and cried as I ran the marathon and got first place, and created a different wonderful group with different members each time with everyone, and went all out for six days, and I was able to change. From now on, I will continue being unrefined as I put all my effort into doing anything. I will do anything for BiS (fan: Good luck!) I am BiS! I love BiS and WACK! With my heart full of love, ‘WHOLE LOTTA LOVE’†Momoko: “I came back today from the six day WACK training camp, representing BiSH. The past six days were full of things that made me emotional. And each day was so thick that I can’t tell if time went by fast or slow. There were time when girls I talked to on top of the futon the night before, were gone the next day. When I thought about what I can do by participating instead of Aina, I thought I should work hard as a candidate and get picked. When working with the other candidates, I’m able to appeal myself honestly and greedily. How the candidates worked hard was really cool and they were shining, and I was very touched. In BiSH, I was never in a position to teach dance, but there was a dance exam and I became the leader and had to come up with the choreography for WACK is FXXK, and I did something I normally don’t do, but after it ended, the candidates told me it was fun and that because it was me, there were a lot of things they were able to say. Putting the rankings aside, that’s something that made me happy. It made me think that I was limiting myself by saying I can’t do it. And when I participated alone, and because I was alone, I realized that I’m really weak and that I can’t do anything by myself. And those of you here, whether you watched Nico live for one day or all six days, if you supported us even a little, the BiSH members as well, you guys weren’t there but sent me tweets, messaged me on LINE, and some of you guys even called me. It really cheered me up. You guys made me feel like I wasn’t alone. Thank you very much. Please listen to the next song, ‘JAM’†(I didn't proofread at all so there may be weird wordings or sentences that don't make sense at all, but I will check later) Hashiyasume sounded good on Promise the Stars and Ling Ling sounded good on JAM and Hoshi ga Matataku Yoru ni. Ling Ling always struggles with the "Konna monka waga mama umaku yarou ikou!" part but she didn't crack her voice or go really off key. Aina sounds good is all/most lives but she still impresses me every time. -- Thank you Sasori for all the updates on the audition, results, and new members, and changes to groups/members. There's just so many people now that it was difficult to keep up. I'm actually kind of excited about this. I wonder how different the songs from each group will be when the base group is the same. -- It's gonna take me a while to get used to/remember the new members but I trust Watanabe's choice when choosing members so I'm sure I will like them and support all groups just the same. I'm also surprised about the sudden change in EMPiRE because they're still pretty new as a group and although their performance is showing fast improvement, they still lack experience. And Watanabe was taking a very different route with EMPiRE so I thought he was setting them apart from the other groups, but I guess not. And LOL at your Team B, Team i, and Team S idea. What would be funny and I can picture that happening. And this is just a guess but I don't really think Watanabe is the type to care about any level of uproar from fans so I think the reason he didn't mess with BiSH is because of contracts? Like with their Round1 CM and singing for the anime "Black Clover", I don't think it's that easy to shuffle around members. But I could be wrong. Like you mentioned, Watanabe is becoming softer (just slightly though lol). I just want Gang Parade to make their major label debut. Could that be the reason why none of the Gang Parade members switched to a different group and why none of the other group members went into Gang Parade? I think all fans and members have a strong love/hate relationship with Watanabe. Welcome! PAiNT iT BLACK's PV was nothing like what I imagined. I thought they would go for a slightly more public-friendly(?) PV. Ling Ling really suits that look. And omg Hashiyasume! lol. I like it. So happy for them. And I envy everybody who gets to see them live.
  9. Ugh I wish I had time to watch all of these but this week I'm going to be busy and most likely will not be able to log in. Once I get back I will probably reply to all of the content you're posting (it's going to be a long post because I already know I will have so much to say lol). But for now. Maika's short hair is growing on me. She looks so pretty. I feel bad for Mimiland... You'll stand out so much when you're the only one that didn't pass. But I think she will still have a chance to be in WACK because I believe that's what happened with Mayu Empire. I can't tell if Hirano is destined to be in Wack or not lol.
  10. Woah Click here to view the Tweet Looks cool. Much better than the previous very wack-ey outfits. Click here to view the Tweet "Momoko has always been someone who works harder than everyone behind the scenes. But when I'm stuck when making choreographies, she's the first one to give me ideas from her point of view. Her perspective is unique, and she's a hard worker. She's not someone who shows that off more than necessary, so it may be hard to see it from the screens, but she is fighting with all her might right now!!" I can't help but laugh at how small and troubled she looks in the first pic.
  11. Exactly. It seems like getting all these achievements is more important than what lead up to it. But like you said, any anonymous posting sites like these shouldn't be taken too seriously. Some opinions are interesting and fun to read while some are just plain stupid and most of the time all of it isn't even serious. I think she's just too busy and adding this training camp to her schedule will be too much for her.
  12. Yeah honestly I don't mind people criticizing BiSH, BiS, GAND PARADE, and EMPiRE as long as they post facts not just bs like this where they're claiming everything is a copy. I do see where they're coming from when they talk about the Giant Killers outfit but the PV comparisons (I didn't watch Futari Sezon but the pictures they posted as comparison) were pretty ordinary scenes. And the Morning Musume picture was a scene from "Brand New Morning" where they had one hand on their chest (like when you song the national anthem) and they're saying it's a "less blatant copy" of one of the poses in Keyakizaka's "Silent Majority". I find it annoying how they're making fun of the BiSH by calling them "unknown underground idols". I don't really care if their popularity is real or not because that's not the reason I like them and those who like them for that reason aren't real fans anyways. I like the members' characters, their lyrics, music, and performance. One thing I'm afraid of is that they're going to start "playing it safe". Hearing their Guerrilla BiSH album, I'm not too worried but I'm not too sure how their new "love song" is gonna sound like... I think Watanabe talked about groups who start becoming too mainstream or too normal (or something) once they start gaining popularity, so I'm hoping he won't let that happen to BiSH.
  13. Poor Momoko lol. Click here to view the Tweet "(Breaking News) Momoko will join the training camp in the place of Aina. I'm excited!" Click here to view the Tweet "Honestly it pains me to see my teammates in pain, so all I can do is hope for a fun training camp" I thought it was Ling Ling who was supposed to join.
  14. I googled stuff and found this: "'Promise the Stars' Performed by BiSH on Music Station copied Keyakizaka Too Much That It's Become a Topic"
  15. Oh I remember one of their PVs were accused of plagiarizing Keyakizaka46. I can't remember what song it was and I didn't bother checking the Keyakizaka song so I don't know if it was similar. But those pictures seem kinda stupid since it's not similar...
  16. Ling Ling's birthday :D Click here to view the Tweet "I grew one year older. You guys thank you very much" Click here to view the Tweet "The TV staff gave me a cake as a surprise! I was so surprised because the lights suddenly turned off" Click here to view the Tweet "Thank you for the WACK Fes at Nagoya! After rehearsals, it flowed into Happy Birthday so I was surprised and happy! Everyone sang it for me. I was embarrassed/shy to have so many people celebrate it for me. Thank you. Happy!" And if you go to her twitter page, there are balloons. I had no idea that happens lol.
  17. Yeah Momoland only had like one short line in WLL (I think?) and I'm a bit upset. I think it's time to send her to Gang Parade to give her more power lol. Not too sure how I feel about BiSH's love song... I have a feeling I will be cringing but I'm probably gonna love it anyways. I wonder how Ling Ling feels about a love song lol. And that's the Pour Lui interview I translated but I only did parts of it and not the whole thing.
  18. omg I got goosebumps from that video... I'm so sad about the trade being over but just like Pour Lui mentioned in her interview these sad feelings (from wotakus lol) are only temporary and will be forgotten. I was one of the people that stayed away from BiS during their craziest days so personally I like this new BiS better but since Pour Lui didn't feel the same and I like her, I will support the Youtuber Pour Lui.
  19. Bits and pieces of Pour Lui's interview: ï¼ï¼Reading the former BiS's interview now, it makes me think "How did this get published like that", and I think you can do this interview like that, first of all, why did you decide to graduate? First of all? I don't even know "Why" anymore... But I thought about a lot of things, philosophically. ï¼ï¼But when you announced your graduation, you said "I want to harass my juniors by creating a BiS that can't be surpassed, and disappear" right? Yes! I will do that! Because I think that's something I really need to do. BiS needs to be told "BiS without Pour Lui isn't BiS" and need to get bashed a lot. Rather than harassment, BiS is a group that overcame that. "BiS without Yuke isn't BiS" "BiS without Yufu isn't BiS" that's something I've been told as well right? Like "A BiS that is so peacefully settled isn't BiS". Because BiS is a group that's been battling those things, so I think they need to be told that. Also I know that I will be forgotten in the end. The wotakus are just saying it now (laughs). ï¼ï¼They will forget the feeling that "BiS isn't BiS without Pour Lui"? Now I'm sure they feel sad. I'm sure they didn't think I would quit. So I think what they're saying is the truth, but that's something that's going to change anyways, so I don't have any negative feelings towards that. If they're properly active, BiS will be told "The current BiS is good too"... Don't you think so? ï¼ï¼Even when people say "Without â—‹â—‹ BiS isn't BiS", BiS was able to go on. That's true, but Pour Lui has walked in the middle of all that. No matter what, you stayed in the center. So I'm unable to say "That's true" so simply. BiSH who started with the goal of "Starting BiS one more time" have surely been told "This isn't BiS". Idols are constantly battling something, that's what idols are. So it all comes down to "Whether you can fight or not". I'm not worried about that aspect, because everyone will fight if they're suddenly thrown into the battlefield. Because you'll die if you don't fight. ï¼ï¼For your juniors who will continue carrying on BiS, I wonder how they will fight? How do you think they can go about it? I can't picture it now, but right now there's BiSH and GANG PARADE, and I've experienced battling against other groups, and when that happens you're able to work hard... The training camp is like that too, those who won were able to join the group. Also, the group BiS is BiS in name but I think it will become a different BiS. The BiS I created and battled for... uselessly remained in some aspects (laughs). So there is a part of me that thinks they don't have to do that. WACK is becoming bigger and now the situation is like you battle properly in a proper place. Practice properly, do proper things at lives, that's acceptable now. That's the flow... The BiS I knew is gone. ï¼ï¼But I feel like Pour Lui was the only one who continued being "BiS from back then" by doing things like the diet challenge. Yeah the feeling of battling alone was definitely strong (laughs). ï¼ï¼Well, listening to your story up 'til now, it's like the story of a soldier who thought "The war is still going on" when it already ended (laughs). That's why in (the new song's artwork) I'm a zombie (laughs). And the new BiS is artwork is cute right? After hearing what I said, I don't want people to misunderstand that BiS ended, it didn't. ï¼ï¼Even if members change and the mood changes, like all groups with longevity, even if the shape is different, it continues. That's why Pour Lui's graduation in necessary. That's right. Since I starting to not fit in, continuing will be a struggle for both sides. "Why can't you do it?" and "Why isn't it like this?" is a parallel line right? (laughs). ï¼ï¼So basically you're saying "Pour Lui was unable to change". That's right. ï¼ï¼You couldn't match the current BiS. I'm sure there are people who'll think you're lame for that, and there are goals you couldn't reach as well. But hearing your story now, I'm finally able to understand, you were really a symbolic person. That's why I couldn't change. And because of that I couldn't work hard anymore and thought it would be better for me to quit then. ï¼ï¼Do you feel frustrated about that? Not anymore. ï¼ï¼Relieved? Relieved. Like "I don't need this kind of BiS anymore" (laughs)... I don't know if you can write that though! But I would say that if I were to play the bad guy, like "I bet Pour Lui from before would say this". That guy would probably say that. ï¼ï¼You called the Pour Lui from before "that guy", what kind of guy do you think she was? Uh... Unsociable (tearing up)... Cool. Just doing that one thing was so fun... But I can't do it anymore. If I were to continue being a part of BiS, I wouldn't be able to do that. It wouldn't be evil. I might be able to become popular if I just did as I was told, and WACK is on a roll right now, so I think BiS can gain popularity with BiSH. But I don't want that! And because I didn't want that... Because I don't want to do it if I'm not the one pulling everyone. ï¼ï¼You've been saying that since the new BiS started. My timing was too late right? ï¼ï¼Maybe so. But this really cannot be helped. Right. That's why I'm quitting. I think everyone feels okay with that and that's what it means to become popular, but as BiS's Pour Lui, I couldn't stand becoming popular like that. I'm sure then I should "Just switch positions and continue" but it's not that simple... But I maybe I should've talked over it with Watanabe-san more. Watanabe Junnosuke was my motivation to live. I'm gross (laughs)! ï¼ï¼But that's what ended up happening. That's why I should've continued talking even if I get hated and be told "What's wrong with that? Just turn it around one day!" and have that talk once in a while then... I might've thought "He's right!". I don't know though. I have stubborn sides too. ï¼ï¼This interview is so Pour Lui (laughs). These tears are a lie as well (laughs). But out fans don't need to agree with me after reading this interview, if they think the new BiS is fun, then I want them to continue proudly. It's just that I couldn't change, so I really don't want you guys to misunderstand. Their justice should be continuing their support. ï¼ï¼Because that's what Pour Lui has being saying this whole time. That will remain the same even if I quit. That's my beautiful honesty. ï¼ï¼Lastly, please send out a message to Researchers (BiS's fans) who will most likely attend the one man live on March 4 at Ryogoku Kokugikan. I will quit after leaving the biggest trauma so... Well, since I'm a liar no one knows if I will really quit (laughs), so please follow me excitedly until the end. Aren't Researchers supposed to be stupid? So, please support the Youtuber Pour Lui after my graduation. And also BiS!
  20. Now that I'm more familiar with all the members of each group, I'm really looking forward to the Wack fest. So cute how Niigaki calls Ling Ling "nakama".
  21. omg they just came out saying "Konnichiwa" and I'm already starting to tear up lol. And they used "Are you kidding?" as the song for rehearsal and Aya sings "Ikanakucha (I have to go)" T_T Aya's speech: "This is something personal, but my rental trade will finish on March 4th so the release event that has been going on for a week, will actually finish as of today. Thinking back, before I became a part of Gang Parade, April and May, I couldn't sing or dance at all and caused everyone so much trouble. Even then, without getting tired of it, everyone continued teaching me the songs and dances. So now I can sing and dance as much as everyone. Now I'm very reminiscent of those days (Natsukashii-desu). Reminiscent (Natsukashii-desu)" Yui: Natsu?! (Summer?!) Everyone: Natsu?! Aya: Natsu has come (Summer has come!). LOL were those fake cries? When Yua gave Aya the towel and she started wiping her face when she wasn't even crying I was like "huh?" but it makes sense now. And I wonder "Toroikurauni tabetai" sounds like such a cool song when it's just about wanting to eat tuna, salmon roe, and sea urchin lol.
  22. I was watching the pv for whole lotta love again and one of the comments said "「日本ã€ã‚¯ãƒ©ã‚¦ãƒ³ã«å¿ 実ãªã‚­ã‚«ã•ã‚“" (Kika-san who is true to "Nippon" Crown) and then I realized she was both the flag of Japan and clown (the pronunciation for Crown and clown is the same in Japanese even though pierrot is the more common way of saying clown) lol.
  23. lol yeah Empire's current outfits have a very wack vibe but the change from their previous outfit is too drastic that I'm just like "which group was this...?" But with wack it's mostly the fans that have to make adjustments to what their used to so I'm sure I'll end up supporting them as long as they keep releasing good music. And that Bangkok cover group is interesting. I know the cover group Oriyon that occasionally covers their songs and dances and they're from France (I think Aina? or someone shared one of their videos on twitter or something before). But they don't do the same styling so WiSH is definitely something I will check once in a while. And that name lol. All the Wack groups are so busy and since I'm a fan of all of them (I didn't like BiS so much before but now I'm starting to get more interested because of AyaPri going back) so it's hard to keep up lol. And here's AyaPri's last (I think) live with Gang Parade. I hope it doesn't get deleted...
  24. Good for him! I heard the song in Ishihara Satomi's drama and it's so good.
  25. Yeah all the girls look great. Momoland's hair is more mature. Also thank you for the interview translation. (late but finally got a chance to read it). The only thing I knew about Ebichu was their group name so it's nice to get to know them a little. And lol at Chittiii's comment about Ebichu having a pure image unlike BiSH lol.
