Project&#8217;s<\/strong> performance in <strong>58th Kouhaku Utagassen<\/strong>\u00a0was so bad that I would like to call it a major fiasco or failure or what evar you want to call that limbo.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kakko-ii.com\/wp-pix\/57_kouhaku_071231_01_t.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kakko-ii.com\/wp-pix\/57_kouhaku_071231_02_t.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<p>There wasn&#8217;t a single thing right in H!P&#8217;s set last evening. We were waiting for <strong>Morning Musume<\/strong>, <strong>C-ute<\/strong> &#038; <strong>Berryz Kobo<\/strong> to be cool and glorious. But what we got? A poorly composed crappy set that had <strong>Love Machine<\/strong> once again as a opening number. Why on earth they chose the same song two times in a row to be performed in Kouhaku?<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kakko-ii.com\/wp-pix\/57_kouhaku_071231_03_t.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kakko-ii.com\/wp-pix\/57_kouhaku_071231_04_t.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<p align=\"left\">And what about eagerly waited participations of Berryz &#038; C-ute? They each got roughly 22 seconds air time with their own songs <strong>Tsukiatteru no ni Kataomoi<\/strong> and <strong>Tokaikko Junjou<\/strong>. Very nice indeed.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kakko-ii.com\/wp-pix\/57_kouhaku_071231_05_t.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kakko-ii.com\/wp-pix\/57_kouhaku_071231_06_t.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<p align=\"left\">Better forget all this and start waiting for the better times. I don&#8217;t have to be a prophet to tell you that this spring is going to be a Super Season for all us H!P fans. C-ute&#8217;s new smashing album, Berryz cool single, <strong>Buono!s<\/strong> rockin&#8217; single, Morning Musume&#8217;s single, H!P&#8217;s concert tour and the ending climax for spring season we are going to have Berryz vs. C-ute Battle tour. Not that&#8217;s what I call nice. Indeed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m really disappointed and it seems that I&#8217;m not the only one. Hello!
