Light Novel no Tanoshii Mikata


Once again, big news on the movie front. We have both a movie trailer, and an official release date. All our previous information on the movie can be found in these posts. But this entry is about this great new footage we have. Interesting to note that we haven't actually had any footage whatsoever from the movie or the making process. So this is our first taste of the movie.







Maasa is looking very cool throughout the trailer. An awesome scene at the very start shows her making her way through a school hallway with all of the other students moving out of her way. Then followed by a clip of her beating someone up with (what would appear to be) a Kendo Bokutou. A very cool character. Contrasted by the way she appears in the other half of the trailer as she dates the classmate in order to gain inspiration for her book and, at times, looks quite awkward, but others you really see the Maasa we all know and love in her character.

Maasa of course looks great in all the costumes we see her in. Not to mention how well acted it seemed to be. I know some people had doubts as Maasa wasn't exactly known for extraordinary acting ability, but if we are just going off the trailer, I reckon that this will be a performance to remember.



The movie, featuring our own Maasa (as well as former H!P egg Noto Arisa) will release in theatres across Japan on the 4th of December. If you are in Japan for that week, I implore you to visit a nearby cinema and watch our Holy Mother on screen!

Birthday Pictures

As my dear friend Garlix requested, I will give you another PicSpam!

Since I am not at home I have to search for all the pictures on the Internet, and may not be able to upload my favorite selection. My apologies for that!

Now, please enjoy!













(Symbolizing the alliance with the Captainist Party. Maasa obviously approves.)

Once, again, Happy Late Birthday!


They may not be rare, but they are still beautiful.
(This is not a question)
May Maasa be with you, bringing light into darkness.

Happy birthday, Maasa!

Brothers, Sisters, Comrades, the day has come! The greatest day of the year where kindness is given unto your fellow man, and you are rewarded with beauty given unto you by the Great Sudou Herself!

This day, July the third is the anniversary of the corporeal incarnation of the Maasa.
On this exact day, July the third, in the year of our Mama, two thousand ten, Maasa celebrates the 18th anniversary of Her birth.

At this time, I would like to lead a prayer with quote from the Maasaist Scripture, Genesis 1:1-1:6:

In the beginning Tsunku created the Hello! Project and the Kids.

And the Kids were without form, and a great mass. And the Spirit of Maa moved upon the face of the Workshop.

And Maasa said, "Let there be dvds!" and lo there were dvds.

And Maasa was in the dvds, and the dvds were good: And Tsunku divided the Workshop from the Kids.

And Tsunku called the Workshop Berryz, and the Kids C-ute. And the third of March was Berryz day.



And so it was so.


Happy birthday, Maasa!

May you continue to shine brilliantly, whether from the sidelines, from the back, or in the front.


I will end with a link to one of the greatest videos ever made: The Maasa version of Yuke Yuke Monkey Dance (uploaded to youtube by our own Dran).
