Kakko-ii Berryz Limited Edition

We've come to the end of this blog. Nothing lasts forever. This is my final post here so it's time to say good bye.

Just joking, partly. Although this is the end of this blog under kakko-ii.com this is not the end of my Berryz blog. How could it be? I love Berryz today more than ever. Actually I've just launched new domain with new blog. It's not hard to find.

Berryz Kobo International

Bye bye...I mean... Welcome to BKI!

I've not yet seen this new Hello! Project DVD Magazine vol. 12 but looking at these captures from it I can already guarantee that I'm going to view it very soon. Found them from one Japanese uploader so sorry but not much Momo & Maasa pics there at this moment.

...was to change Berryz Kobo November/December 2007 wall calendar to Berryz January/February 2008 wall calendar.

I hang my Berryz calendar just above my TV set so I can always see it if I want to. I use selfmade Perspex frame to hold calendar's separate sheets. It's easy to change sheet when time is right.

Jan/Feb sheet is kewl and Chinami looks in it absolutely charming.

あけましておめでとうございます!

I'm now back from my one week long Christmas holiday. I ate too much, got some presents and had great time with my mom & dad. There was not any snow so I couldn't do THAT snowman.

One week without internet wasn't so painful as I thought it could be. And now when I'm back to my laptop I'm dl'ing all possible Berryz stuff that has turned up to various sources while I was away.

One nice video clip I got today is NHK's Omoide no Kouhaku program with Berryz appearance. It's so NICE that I have seen it now eight times. In one segment of that clip Berries are practising for today's Kouhaku show.

I don't know if it's only me but I think those girls look today prettier than ever. God, how lovely Miya can be!

Waiting now eagerly this year's Kouhaku . . .

Berryz Kobo Winter Fashion Special. Let's take a closer look at the trends we have this season.

Most important thing is to keep your body warm in outdoor activities and make you feel easy & comfortable when indoors. Choose the colors of your clothes and accessories to match your personal style.

When I look at Risako's choise for seasonal clothing all I can say is that it keeps ME comfy & warm.

P.S. Little finger is a must!

Only few days to go and then it's Christmas once again. Yurina want's to share this tasty X-mas cake with us. And Momo has one special wish: She wants to have white Cristmas so that she can make this kind of happy snowman. The last one is Chinami's snowman with red cheeks... of course.

It's been long ago since Berryz Kobo had it's whole group Photo Book last time. There has been a couple of concert & solo PBs but not real group book since Seasonz (published in 2005). We want NEW Berryz Kobo PB and we want it NOW!

Seasonz was a great book with a clear theme: Four seasons. Just to remind you how kawaii our Berries were also back then when they were ONLY 2-3 years younger than today I picked these wintry shots for you. Scans of the whole PB you'll find @ our Archive site.

In these photos Miya & Risako are exceptionally awesome. Look at those two last ones (before that small Berryz card)! KNOCK OUT! Takes my breath away.

There is also one Momo photo in this purchase. That pink jumpsuit (or what evar it is) becomes her very well. And I love peach too!

Berryz Kobo's Tsukiatteru no ni Kataomoi Event V DVD brings us another version of this catchy cool song. Earlier close-up version was a little bit strange because girls stood still while singing but now in this version all works fine when berries do there also that wonderful vital choreography.

With this new close-up version comes short commentary / interview part where all girls tell ia what were their highlights of this year and what they are hoping for next year. Not so surprising that all girls say that Berryz spring concert at Saitama Super Arena was one of the finest moments of their career so far.
