Novice Fiesta 2008-08-31

Yossi and Rika did separate commentaries. Fans noticed Yossi drawing on some sheets (player's info?) and when Rika took over, she was heard saying "Is this me? It sure doesn't look like (me)."

[Gaki no ue no PONYO] and TM NETWORK's [GET WILD] are songs she'll definitely sing. And if she was singing to a guy she likes, it would be EXILE's [LOVERS AGAIN] or KOME KOME CLUB's [Aishiteru].

Repercussion



Looks like there's a big screen showing the PV at yesterday's Gatas event.
No wonder there are reports that Yossi was looking shy and fidgeting.
BTW, GJ to the person, who captured this, when we know how fast this scene just fleet past.

Crazy schedule Odaiba 2008-08-29

Yuko said she had dinner with Kei, Yaguchi, Rika and Nono on the 27th of this month. Ever wonder why someone is missing? Because that someone had an event that night (Wa-on live on stage), and next day (28th) in Osaka for Wa-on concert, and today (29th) in Odaiba. A hectic schedule. It is no wonder that Yossi's name wasn't in the list of players scheduled to appear in today's GATAS event, but Yossi did turn up for the match, which began at 10:30am and ended just minutes ago at 13:30, and managed to score quite a few goals; Rika scored one too. However, it is not sure if she'll remain for the fan activity event that starts at 15:00.


Edit :
(Picture taken at today's event.)


Rika talked about the new PV and said it was up to them to do whatever they liked for the off-shot scenes. So, did someone just decide to smooch someone?

On the 31st, Rika Yossi and Mai will have another futsal related event in Sapporo.

my thoughts...

Talk about the kiss is so rife now but I'm more interested in the rationale behind putting that scene in the pv. For me, it just kills the fandom, though I foresee a lot more jumping into the bandwagon. The ratio's like 10:1. Guess who's the winner in the end?

I like 1444 because I like subtle things and because I love linking the dots. Having an analytical mind, I always go beyond what's superficial when I look at things. An instinct which comes naturally. And that's why I like 1444, they are never (like Sei had said) 'in-your-face'.

But now... (sighz)

Nobody I know have been in this fandom longer than I do. I'm not being boastful here. How many of you here actually downloaded the first episode of hello morning from a japanese website instead of from winmx or nowaday, a tracker? Yes, back in those days, mpgs are uploaded to website that changes url as fast as you can click on the refresh page icon. And you need to use complicating japanese softwares to join up the split files. That's how long I've been in this fandom. And it wasn't really 1444 in the beginning...

Yoshigama was the more popular belief - because both girls were in pucchimoni and because both girls were often paired together in mo-tai, muSix and h!m, though 1444 did show some initial signs in aisaga's making of 'I Wish' and in 'Hesos' and slowly catching on during mr.moonlight days. Then a tabloid came out and killed everything and it had been yoshigoma until Ma_ki's graduation from MM.

Even after that 1444 are never close again, much to my disappointment. There were even times I wondered if they had each gone their separate ways. My worries were uncalled for for there came their bickering period where they were always at loggerheads and pissing each other off. The scene where Yossi came from behind to hug a crying Rika when she thought filming had stopped left a big impact in me. And I realize they were still 'friends' which made me love them more, than when they were back then, being publicly lovey-dovey. But...

when that and a sneak massage footage were released later... they clammed up again. Totally cooled off and nobody ever mentioned 1444 again for a long long time. During this lull period (end 2003-2005), another pairing was born, that till this day still garners a large following. And I believed it was also during this period that Yossi had gotten close to Mai-chin and Ayaka. However when Rika graduates, we see them interacting again during the concerts and people were reminded once again why they were the classic couple back in MM golden days.


So when Rika left MM in 2005, I thought... 'That's it isn't it? That's the end since they'll be seeing less of each other now that they are not working together?'. I was quite sure that would be the end of them when Rika popped up and took over the hosting job for h!m. I was elated. And I wondered if the management knew that fans just wanted to see them being around each other. So, for every episode, I found myself watching closely to see if there's any interaction between them. And I realized they seemed to loosen up and miggle more than before. What a blessing in disguise Rika's graduation turns out to be. And randomly, I'll see Yossi saying things like "that girl is like that..." or Rika shouting "Yossi" when the latter's up to her silly antics or Yossi always looking in Rika's direction during those sekai world games. You could almost see that they are more connected to each other than they are to the rest in the studio. I guess being together in Gatas, with its many practises and public events does help in a way or another. That was around 2006 when Yossi was still closer to Mai-chin and Ayaka.

Year 2007, we saw 1444 really blossomed again. So many netas to show they've gotten closer, beginning with wonderheart concerts in the beginning of the year where Rika had fallen sick but still insisted on performing and fans caught someone watching from behind the curtains. For that same concert, we see footages of them frolicking backstage while Rika, in a bunny suit, was waiting for her turn next to perform and you wonder what was Yossi doing there with Rika when she was supposed to be with the rest of the MM members. Months later, during Sexy 8 Beat concert tour, Yossi mentioned she received an email from Rika that morning wishing her success for the first show and she did the 'ice-cream & pudding' poking pose when asked during an MC to do a sexy pose. See all the Yossi-Rika link? Because Rika also mentioned about Yossi during a MC for her v-u-den concert. And when Yossi took over Nono's role in a musical, I wondered why both of them just seemed so fated to be together in whatever they do. There were fans' sightings of them turning up to watch each other's performance. To keep up the hype and push it to greater heights, their fun-filled and rabu-rabu performance (Cherry) on utadoki brought smiles and endless nights of sweet dreams to every 1444 lovers. Kemeko's announcement on Midtown that she spent a rabu-rabu christmas party at home with Yossi and Rika brought this good year to an end.

Year 2008 arrived furiously with more gatherings and parties and staying over, and this time at Rika's place. And very very unexpectedly, to the joy of 1444 worshippers, Yossi just blurted out 'ISHIYOSHI COMBI' on Midtown which is such a winner because we wonder why she knows a term only used by wotas? Has she been checking out wotas forums too? It shows she knows fans like to link her and Rika together and judging from their frequent private get together, she doesn't mind the rumors at all. Then there's Gatas fanclub tour to Hawaii with sightings of them shopping together. Interaction at Gatas public practises and matches (Rika's infamous own goal). Dinner shows. Having similar hobbies... liking pink, futsal, aromatic candles, overseas dramas... So many instances of them being more involved in each other's life more than work requires.

That makes me wonders if there was something...
something beyond the threshold of friendship...
subliminally...

but the fake kiss footage... THAT FAKE KISS...

It just kills everything.

UFA, thanks for everything ya~

100円玉に愛を込めて 2008-08-27

After watching the show where Rika had gone to Nepal, I have only one thought: whoever has Rika as girlfriend or wife must be really fortunate.

I mean she is such a kind and caring person. She ain't faking it when she shows no qualms in carrying a child from a village where almost all kids are suffering from scabies - a contagious skin disease - or when she is drinking muddy water that had gone through only a simple filtration process. Not everyone can do that. I definitely can't, not without getting freaked out.





And when the village girl said she is happy when Rika asked her if she thought her life was hard, Rika was clearly shocked and moved nearly to tears. The girl's simple take on life - where happiness can be as simple as just having your family with you, has gotten Rika so ashamed that she said the girl had taught her something instead.

For people who never like Rika, I hope they will change their opinion of her after watching the show.

Ishiyoshi The Peace @Mitsubishi

my thoughts...



Judging from the photo, there seems to be a relatively huge turnout in Mitsubishi Summer Festival. A look across, there's definitely more people than what a 2,000 auditorium can hold - you know the capacity that often turns out for those small scale helloporo concert tours. And the fact that I know most of the crowd who watched this aren't h!p wotas makes me happy. The event helps them to be exposed to people who has never heard of them, and I'm very glad that the girls sang a repertoire of better songs from MM. The Peace, I Wish, DIN and Love Machine. That makes me wonder if up_front are admitting that MM's old songs are better than new ones.

Anyway, Yossi and Rika sounded great singing live, especially DIN. Very stable vocals. That kinda surprised me that they were actually singing live because I know that h!p girls always lip-synch for their concerts. I always believe that to be called a singer, one must be able to sing live and sound good at the same time, and obviously Yossi, Rika and Miki CAN sing live. Last time, MM always sing live for their concerts, and I really missed those times. but they stopped doing so when 6th and 7th and 8th gen joined. What an irony! Because the move shows their management don't even believe that girls they recruited are of singer calibre. It might be little things like that that has brought the downfall of MM; girls who can't sing and dance in a group that once represented Japan's pride.

Nippon no mirai wa~ Sekai ga urayamu~

No more of that now. Mention MM in Japan and most people will snigger and look at you as if you are a low-class, tasteless and disgusting wota. (WHEN WE ARE NOT!!) ^^

Mitsubishi Summer Festival '息ピッタリの二人'.

Someone (kamisama~) had uploaded Ishiyoshi's 'The Peace'.

When Rika's doing her line, Yossi did go around her but only walked around, no disturbing (unlike some fans reports said), which was kind of disappointing because I thought she was poking at Rika or something like that. As both of them continued with the song, they were doing their own stuff, singing and waving at the crowd...

道行く人が 親切だった (michiyuku hito ga shinsetsu datta) (lyrics from the song)
うれしい出来事が (ureshii dekikoto ga)
増えました (fuemashita~)

But when they reached the line 愛しい人が~ (itoshii hito ga~) (to the person you love)

They turned to look at each other.


And I dropped dead. _O/\__
It's so sudden. They just turned to look at each other.

You see, they don't really look at each other when they are singing, only once or twice in the beginning of the song. But, even then, I have to say that they have shown great understanding because whenever Rika or Yossi had turned to look, somehow the other would know and look back, though for the rest of the song, they only looked at the crowd until they reached that part... hehe~

Others may argue that it's just a coincidence, but for an ishiyoshi wota, that look is just beautiful.

my thoughts...

Just when people are lamenting Haromoni@ is coming to an end,
my thoughts are 'phew~ one less tv show to download now. ^^ '

Strictly speaking the last episode should be on the 14th or 21st of September since there will be recaps of famous scenes for the last and second last episodes... as if we needed that ^^

I am hoping there will be a replacement tv show involving H!P.

Yaguchi~ Ogawa~ Yuuko~ Kei~ Yossi~ Rika~
Just these six names look good enough.

Give us the old girls please~

My Girl


Reporter: Who's the girl on your left?

Yossi: Oh, she's my girl.

*Reporter badly shocked*

Yossi (*obliviously*): Isn't she just cute?

Reporter: Ahem... ya (*looking awkward & thinking on how to avoid sensitive topic*) What about the other girl on your left?

Yossi: She??? (*rolls eyes*) She's my buddy, and someone who really thinks she's cuter than my girl.

Mitsubishi Festival Fan Video Rec

A very big thank you to the fan who recorded and uploaded this for people who can't be there to see it. Recording is strictly prohibited. From the second vid, you can hear someone, probably the security guard, shouting at the crowd and the screen going black... leaving only the audio.

Rika's assist, Yossi's GOAL~

2008-08-17 SDS / 2008-08-18 MKB's event

Not much was said about the dinner show on 17th. An exception was when Mai-chin won the janken to do that line, Rika cut in and stole Mai's line while Yossi stepped forward to complete the rest. (Trust them to do that~)


*Ongaku Gatas were guest at MKB's event yesterday.
*Yossi found that her wisdom tooth had come out and Rika suggested to have it extracted immediately, saying that's what she did to hers when it came out.
*Nowadays, Rika begins her day by checking the tv schedule for Olympics coverage. Yossi complained that even while at backstage just now, Rika was watching the games on her cell phone.
*Yossi teased a certain Hanshin fan about OG's constant link with the colours orange and black, saying how the colours were so 'Giants', and she wondered how that fan felt? The fan (Rika) said it's ok to wear orange as long as she knows that is the colour that belongs to Ongaku Gatas.
*When Notchi was going on and on about some anime, Yossi looked over at Rika and seemed to ask if she understood and Rika lip-synched back 'I don't'.
*During a game when the girls were supposed to kick a ball through a hola-hoop, Rika missed and hit the crowd instead. Rika quickly apologised but Yossi just commented that Rika was such a bad person. Yossi only criticised Rika albeit some other girls had missed their target too.
*Yossi singing 'PONYO PONYO PONYO sakana no ko~ aoi umi kara yatte kita~ PONYO PONYO PONYO sakana no ko~ manmaru onaka no onna no ko~" (For those who heard last week's gatten gatas, they should be familiar with this melody and how Rika just keeps singing it.) BTW, this song is very popular in Japan now. It is the theme song of anime movie 'Gake no ue no PONYO', and Yossi is very into it at the moment. She said the movie made her cry (source: SDS MC).
*They sang their new single 'Come Together' with either Rika or Konkon taking over Mai's lines.

(The above are from fans' reports who attended the event. Many thanks to them. m(_ _)m
There might be a little deviation due to my limited understanding of the Japanese language.)

2008-08-16 Summer Dinner Show

Hearsay. Believe at your own expense.

* Someone called herself Tinkerbell and the other Peter Pan.
* Rika lost the janken in both the afternoon and night shows (much to Yossi's delight) and didn't get to do the 'dialogue' thinggie from The Peace. Satoda did the dialogue for the afternoon show while Yossi got to do it for the night show.

* When Yossi was doing the dialogue for 'The Peace', Rika was happily poking and doing her 'hip attack' on Yossi.
* Rika kept talking about the Olympics, and had spent all her free time watching it. During Kitajima's winning swim, Ongaku Gatas were at work and they watched the competition live on TV. Yossi wasn't really interested and only started watching after she heard her girls cheering loudly.
* Yossi said that if she had free time during the next Olympics, she would want to go watch the games live. Rika said she's tagging along.
* Something about Rika going to the next olympics and asking Yossi to capture her on digital camera, then Yossi asked 'does that mean I have to go too?' for which Rika said 'Yes." (I am not very sure about this.)
* Taking a break from their PV shooting (new single), Yossi, Rika, Mai and Konkon went out together for lunch. Around that time, Yossi and Rika each received an email from Ayaka telling them that she had changed her phone number (something like that). Maichin was shocked to learn that Ayaka hadn't her of the change, despite them being buddies, and texted the lady to ask why. However, Ayaka became angry first and questioned Maichin why the latter hadn't informed her that they (Yossi, Rika and Mai) were meeting for work that day.
* Rika's father never attended any concert by her daughter, but he turned up to watch v-u-den's last concert. When he saw Maichin, Yossi and Aichan backstage, he kept saying that they were 'Kawaii'. In short, the girls think that Rika's father is a very nice man.
* For their solo rendition, Maichin sang 'Koi~ing', Yossi sang 'Boyfriend' and Rika sang 'Furusato'.

Rika KAWAII~~ ~~ ~~


Let's do a little recap

From Gfm

(0^~^)<「あたし明日ねお仕事で阪神対巨人戦行くんだよ」て言ったら

( ^▽^)<ただの付き人でいいから連れてって

(0^~^)<って言われました
Yossi: " When I said 'I'll be at the game between Giants and Hanshin for work tomorrow', Rika said 'If it's alright to bring another person along, I wanna come.' "

DJ<(よっすぃに)今日は楽しいですか?
DJ : (to Yossi) Is it fun today?
(0^~^)<はい楽しいですねー
Yossi: Yes, it's fun.
DJ<今日は帰ったら梨華ちゃんに報告ですね
DJ: So when you get back, you're gonna report to Rika right?
(0^~^)<梨華ちゃんは悔しがってると思います
Yossi: Most probably she'll feel disappointed.



And before that (↑), Ayaka had said in her radio show...


アヤカ<2日連続梨華ちゃんの家だったですけれども
     1日目は3人だったんですよねよっすぃ~と梨華ちゃんと私で
I went to Rika's place for two straight days. On the first day it's just Yossi, Rika and me.
     よっちゃんはそのまんま梨華ちゃん家に泊まりまして
Yossi stayed over that night.
     私はワンちゃんも連れてっていたので自分の1回家に帰ったんですけれども
And I couldn't stay because I brought my pet dog along and had to go home.
     よっちゃんも1回ね梨華ちゃん家は出てるんですけれども
     あのもう荷物を置いてったのでほんと戻ってくる前提で出掛けてたわけなんですけれども
Although Yossi did leave Rika's place once during her stay, she would just leave her stuffs behind like she's coming back again.



That leaves me thinking....
Are they part-cohabiting now?

gfm 2008-08-12 Sightings!


(credit: endhyper.jugem.jp)

A fan who attended the baseball match on the 12th managed to take some snap shots of Yossi leaving the gate. Quite a big entourage imo. It seems her manager was holding her bag for her in the first pic.

Wednesday, August 13, 2008

gfm 2008-08-12

Yossi was a guest for the match between Giants and Hanshin tigers.

When a question asked if any girls from MM are into baseball, Yossi said: 'I was with Ishikawa Rika chan yesterday...'

DJ: 'Buddies?'

Yossi: 'Hai, she's previously from MM and a big fan of Hanshin tigers. I told her I'll be at the match between Giants and Hanshin Tigers tomorrow for work, then she kept pestering if I could bring another person along. She badly wanted to come, and it looked to me she was really coming."

And during the closing segment, when the DJ asked Yossi if she'd report to Rika about the match result once she got back, Yossi said Rika would, no doubt, be disappointed.

***

I don't know about you people, but Yossi's talk on Rika totally blow my mind away. Besides being together (officially/GATAS) on 9th and 10th, it means they were together on 11th too. And kudos to the DJ for asking that last question at the end. What does he really mean when he said "When you get back..."?

Odaiba 6th 9th 10th August 2008

Ishiyoshi fans report:

(6thAug) No much interaction among them as the members were divided into two teams and they had played in different teams. However, one particular fan noted Yossi using a towel Rika just used.

(9th and 10th) Fans noticed the girls back to before, chatting and staying together. Sometimes, Rika would whisper into Yossi's ears.

***

Pertaining to that, Dohup just upped some odaiba clips from last year. After watching, I noticed Yossi looking glum throughout the whole event. In fact, black-faced is a more appropiate word. Was she tired? Maybe... but she suddenly hyped up during her speech and mentioned how a particular someone, who was fourth in queue, was obviously 'scorched' in today's event. Her comment was out of the blue and irrelevant, nevertheless, it brought a smile to my face. It proves once again that Yossi likes to talk about Rika.

The show stealer was, of course, the scissor, paper, stone match between Rika and Miki. It started off with Sengoku asking Rika to do sexy janken poses, something that Rika "graciously" stepped forward to demostrate; it was also because Sengoku was too shy to do it. Eventually, it transpired into a square-off between Rika and Miki.

Gatten Gatas 2008-08-11

This episode features Mai-chin, Rika and Koretty, but no Yossi. buu~ buu~ Shouldn't they have one episode with Ishiyoshi and Mai-chin?

As usual, there is no quiet moment in this episode because Mai-chin and Rika are just so talkative. Even Koretty has opened up. My fav. is 'Katte ni Melody' in which a few netas had involved Rika, again. I especially like the one that goes 'I-shi-ka-wa ... O-chi-tsu-ke...', which means "Ishikawa, be quiet/calm". The girls must have liked it too because they are laughing out very loudly. They later chose it as the winning entry. As we all know how noisy Rika can be when she is in hyper-mode, this line will surely come in handy. Later, Mai-chin said that Yossi would like today's entries too if she was here, especially the one on Konkon.

When having celebrities are good for business




Someone who watched Wao~n went to the shop to take these pictures.
I bet the shop's business improved briefly.

The day a cup was won...

Finally they won...
(blame the weak opponents)



but it's where their hands are that gets my attention more ^^

Gatten Gatas 2008-07-21 & 2008-07-28 & 2008-08-04

Gatten Gatas 2008-07-21

For the sake of good health, Yossi prefers electric fan over air-con... and so coincidentally, Rika, at her event on the 12th of July, also said that she would rather use an electric fan to cool herself at night because too much air-con won't do her throat much good (yeah, we mustn't forget she is a singer). Okay, so we see a little connection already. In "Katte ni Melody" segment, Yossi was surprised and yet happy to know that their fans like to tsukkomi Rika too, as quite a number of neta sent in involved Rika.


Gatten Gatas 2008-07-28

There's a Yossi's corner whereby listeners can send in replies they think Yossi will use in normal lives (in response to different situations). So, a listener thinks that if Rika told Yossi the pink shirt she just bought was cute, Yossi would simply say "On the contrary that looks gross (kishoi)."
The studio laughed and before Yossi could reply, Mai-chin added that she didn't think Yossi would even say that at all. Yossi said that was because Rika has good dress sense. Isn't it strange of Yossi to say that? When all along, the girls are always making fun of Rika, calling her and her fashion 'kishoi'. Perhaps Rika really has poor dress sense, just that someone has no the heart to call it bad. ^^


with this pic, Yossi would not think pink is gross.


Gatten Gatas 2008-08-04

Rika said she is into aromatic candles recently and had bought a whole lot back from Hawaii (Gatas Fanclub tour). Guess we all know who has gotten her into this hobby...

1444 sightings! 2008-06-30

We all heard on Young Town that Yossi intended to attend v-u-den's last concert.
And according to rumors, she did, together with Mari and Kemeko.



Edit: (2008-06-30)

Morning Musume (who got back in time from their concert in Shanghai that was held on 28th June), Mari, Kemeko, Yossi, Maichin, Koretty and C_ute attended v-u-den's last concert.

Friday, August 08, 2008

my thoughts...

Just saw people commenting in another forum (yossi's thread) that they think Yossi's a really fun person to have around. But I always think differently. I think she's the boring type. Yah, and a person of few words. Because many times stage personas just don't equal private life, that's my opinion.

I'm sure everyone has a really good friend out there. Ask yourself, what makes the two of you 'clicked'? Because you are so different or so alike?

I always think a quiet person would look for a talkative friend, who seems to have endless interesting stories and experiences to share while a loquacious person would want someone who's willing to listen and listen and just listen. I can imagine two quiet person together though. They can still feel comfortable with each other as they share a mutual understanding. But no way (??) with two talkative ones. Can you imagine one is always trying to outtalk the other? Experiences tell me that when a person likes to talk, he/she seldom listens. And nobody likes to talk to someone who never listens. And since no one is listening, they can never be buddies... well, then again, there might be exceptions.

Now you try to find a similarity in the following buddy pairings:

Rika/Yossi and Mai/Yossi and Yossi/Ayaka and Mai/Ayaka.

where one is definately more chatty than the other:-
Rika>Yossi
Mai>Yossi
Yossi>Ayaka
Mai>Ayaka

Well... I only need this much (for 2 pax)


This screencap looks so funny per se I have to post it.


(In Japan, there are supermarkets where you pay one price for a bag of vegetables, regardless on how much you can squeeze them in. And I think no owner would want the girl on Yossi's left in their shop.)

Got it?


Took me a few minutes looking at the two pictures to understand what the uploader's trying to say...

Okay...

So have you clicked to enlarge the pictures?

Okay...

How many got it already?

That's good~
Splendid~ so do you feel euphoria flooding your body?

...
...

Yeah~ for those who still can't get it, please continue to examine the pictures.


...
...


And now...

(highlight for ... well... just highlight the below text~)

Sorry guys, they aren't using the same lip balm.
Took me quite fast this time to realize it.
Rika's using the brush type, Yossi's the rub-on type. LOL

息ぴったりの二人

When everybody wants a piece of Yossi

Said Erika during a MC segment at a v-u-den concert :-

Can I say something? Recently, during our first stop at Osaka, while we were in our resting room, Rika-chan received an email from Yoshizawa Hitomi san saying 'Congrats'

(Crowd: Wooo~)

And not long later, Yui-chan received the same email from Yoshizawa san. And both of them were so happy after that and well... I received nothing.


(Crowd laughing)

..and I think that's because Yoshizawa-san doesn't have my email address. So yesterday when Yoshizawa-san and I met at work, I told her about the matter and she said "sorry, let's exchange contacts later". Well, after we have finished work, I saw Yoshizawa san meddling with her cell phone and I thought ok, we are about to exchange contacts. But when she saw me, she just said "Otsukare~" and left !

(Crowd died laughing)

PINK PINK PINK

Her filmy shirt is pink...
her hot-looking short skirt is pink...
her leather boots are pink...
her andro tie is pink...
but what stands out as the most pinkish in this pink-imbued photo has to be...


her pinky finger.

my thoughts...

Basically I think every h!p coupling fangirl falls only into 2 categorizes - "Action" & "Thought".

To me, Action-type fangirls go for 'visual' stimulation, like going crazy for any coupling that's openly groping each other (chinagirl&turtle or rabbit&turtle), and they jump bandwagon as fast as you could flip a roti-prata.


Thought-types are more mental; they would see, hear, process and filter before coming to a conclusion, and you can expect them to stick to their fav. pairing for a long long time~

Vague, it seems. Let's put it in a simpler way. One thinks like a 'man' (with what's in their pants) while the other thinks like 'woman' (with their brains).

Scandal!



Gotcha~

That is what happens when you see only the pictures ^^



Japanese have rankings for almost everything. Not that I'm complaining, at least I now know which high school Yossi attended. ^^

Ice cream & Pudding

A harmless download turns out to be a gem instead.

I thought it was just v-u-den stuff and downloaded it for the sake of watching Rika, and what a surprise I had when I saw Yossi. Apparently Yossi just loves Bunny-Girl Rika. Basically, she said she would miss 'Ice-cream & Pudding' the most when v-u-den disbands. Isn't she cheeky?

I lost count the number of times that Yossi had said she loved this song. I guess the dance works more for her. You know, the really sexy 'raisin' poking part. haha~

Look out also for Rika's reaction when Yossi was goofing on screen. You see Rika trying to control her laughing and end up having runs from her nose. She looked so happy and had this blissful look, although she did complain a little in the beginning that Yossi had done the recording behind her back. This program was shown live on 17th while Gatas had played earlier on 16th in Nagoya, where Yossi did the recording.

Funny how Rika hadn't complained when shown Mai's shots earlier? >_<

人間はHじゃないですか?


After her 'Penisunia' talk, Yossi created a storm again in one variety show yesterday. A group of uncles had to vote on who looked the most 'H' (hentai/perverted) among the guests and no one voted for Yossi. When someone asked Yossi if she were hentai at all, Yossi simply said "Aren't people hentai?"


Okay! Enough harm (fun) done. Well, she is 23 now, so it's norm for her to have some experience in this field. But I think it is just tongue-in-cheek. IMO, girls who pretend to freak out when asked are the real hentai ones; they so become leopard-prints clad whip-carrying girl in chains when in bed.

Gatas 09 10

Japanese fans do the cutest things~

I dunno what Rika told Yossi about live birds - be it chicken or duck or birds - but our poor girl is practically screaming at every dead chicken and duck she sees... yeah if you've seen this...


you'll understand what I'm talking about.






Btw, how I hope I was that masseur... I'll kill to touch Yossi (legs) hehe~

A few rubs and kneads later revealed Yossi having problems with her kidney and urinary tract. (Has that got to do with her drinking?)

Something else you people should know: there is one the part where Yossi went to the temple and got herself a 'lot'. It said that her marriage is near but the relationship will soon run into problems as one party will start cheating on the other. The person being Yossi. (Haha~)

And finally, Yossi~ that's not durian you'd tasted. It is jackfruit. Either the editing crew had made a mistake with the shots or the fruit vendor had cheated them.




Downtown DX 2008-06-12 (02)

Following what Rika mentioned on Downtown DX, Tsuji's husband - the ultraman, blogged about Rika and Yossi's visit to his place (27th April?) and posted a picture of the gift they bought for his baby.

Yossi~~ (>_<)
Well, they have fun with Nono's kid.
(And we all know how Yossi loves kids)

(Well just more proof that these girls do hang out in private)


Gatten Gatas 2008-06-09

A listener wrote in to say he thinks Rika is very sexy and asked others for their opinion. Yossi doesn't think Rika is sexy at all, but more the cutie or cute-idol type. Mai thinks Rika is sexy. When Yossi insists that Rika is more cute than sexy, Mai insists that Rika has a sexy figure though. Koretty thinks only the Rika in v-u-den is sexy, but not the Rika who is playing futsal or fooling around in private. Yossi quickly adopts the 'I-told-you-so' tone to Mai.


Yossi thinks Rika's kawaii~~

Subliminal affiliation?

I finally found the picture in which Rika was wearing a pendant necklace similar to Yossi's
