There is something (19) ~Bunkasai 2006~

It seems there are newer fans who don't know about ishiyoshi until recently though I always take for granted that many of us should already know certain facts about them. So, I have decided that with whatever spare time I have, I will dig up whatever 1444 stuffs that's in my harddrive and share them here. And since I had started on the Bunkasai event held on 2006-09-16/17 , I shall bring forth another ishiyoshi 'neta'* that had happened during that event.

Due to the poor audio recording of the clip (fan's cam recording), it's hard to understand what's being said, but I chanced upon a fan's report back then, and luckily, the draft's still in my hd. It is what the fan reports...

As Ultraman made his entrance from the side by rolling onto stage Yoshizawa-san, who was standing nearest the side decided to mimic him. Since the superhero's vision was strictly restricted-he can only see straight-he had no idea Yossi had ended up right beside him and was mimicking his actions. It was after Rika had told Yossi " ここはそういうコーナーじゃないでしょう！" (Here is not a place for such stuffs) that Ultraman then noticed Yossi. At this moment, Yossi offered Ultraman a handshake then challenged him to a duel. The superhero declined so Yossi shook his hand and challenged him yet again. Seeing the repeated taunting, an agitated Rika then commanded Yossi to go back to her place (" よっすぃ～！　ちゃんと席に戻りなさい！") which Yossi did, obediently.

Later, when they were asked 「ハヤタ隊員が所属していた『○○特捜隊』の『○○』」は何？」 and after Rika had drawn a picture of Ultraman on her answer board, Yossi, perhaps still unhappy with the previous chide from Rika, made a dig at the picture and said it didn't look like Ultraman at all but more like "Mr.Chemistry-san." Rika asked how could her Ultraman, whom she had drawn in a flying position, be Mr.Chemistry? And Yaguchi Mari had to explain who Mr.Chemistry was as it seemed not everybody present knew what Yossi and Rika were talking about. But the other male host and Ultraman still looked stumped even after the explanation.

The fan who gave the report thinks that Mari must be a ishiyoshi watcher.

We now know why back then Daddy Yos had decided to give Ultraman a hard time.

There is something (18) Gatten Gatas 2007-11-05

A listener was curious how the senior and junior players in Gatas interact and Yossi, with so many examples available, just mentioned Rika. It is funny how she'll bring up Rika in whatever topic they're on. So, having known that now, what do you think she'll say when a direct R-san question is thrown at her?
She'll babble non-stop, right?
Wrong!

During 'Let's Study, I MAI ME' when Yossi and Mai were asked to guess the meaning of the word I-S-H-I-K-A-W-A-R-I-K-A, the studio just went quiet. Can you imagine that? A radio show succumbing to five seconds of silence? Quite unacceptable, isn't it? But it happened. Perhaps Maichin, thinking that it might be a question that would interest Yossi, was waiting for Yossi to response. But Yossi, I don't know what's in her mind, just remained quiet. She finally gave a short 'oh' after what seemed like forever.

So we now back to the question I asked earlier: "What happens if a direct R-san question was thrown right into her face?"

Well, she'd just go quiet. ^^

There is something (17) ~a trip to Kemeko's house~

Pertaining to this (Kuchi Community) ,I'm adding 3 audio sources for further corroboration.

0923talkshow >> (Yasuda Kei with Yossi). Yossi calls Yasuda's house the 'Kemeko House', something Yasuda finds amusing, like the 'White House' in America. Yossi is surprised that Yasuda doesn't cook. Yasuda and Rika only know to complain about hunger and have insisted Yossi to cook for them.

0924talkshow >> (Yasuda Kei with Nakazawa Yuuko and Ishikawa Rika). Yasuda says Rika often cajoles her to hang out together. One day, she and Yossi came to her house. (The audience go 'Woo') Yasuda tells the audience not to be deceived by Rika's seemingly 'a-good-housewife' image, because it turns out that Yossi is the one who can cook instead. Yuuko cuts in, citing it is ok since everyone else will be worried with if it were Rika cooking.

10thtalkshow >> (Date unknown. Yasuda Kei with Abe Natsumi). The truth is revealed. Ever wondered why Rika and Yossi had gone to visit Kemeko? According to Yasuda, she had received a phone call, out of the blue, from Yossi and Rika and they had asked if it was alright for them to go visit her.


Now, we wonder why those two girls are together in the first place (when they are making this phone call)?

Isn't it odd? When Yossi had stressed that she and Rika never hung out in private.

There is something (16) ~adana~

How does Rika call Yossi?

Yossi?
Yotchan?
Hitomi-chan?

Often wonder why she doesn't seem to have a fixed name for Y-san?

Well...
Because she actually calls her this ____ when they thought the camera's not on them...
And it started way back since 2003 (summer)

Check out the first two secs. You may argue this was way back in 2003, what about three years later?

3 seconds into this clip... Rika calls Yossi 'Hi-chan' to give her speech.

Here, Rika goes "Hi-chan" at the last part.

FYI, that's how Yossi's mother calls her too.

Hi~chan.

There is something (15) ~Nobody knows better-2~

Another example of why nobody knows better than Yossi...

From Hello Morning~ 2006-08-08


Rika's decoy is working...
and Risa falls for it, though someone didn't.

and joy when she gets it right

but others are protesting already
and Rika still feigns innocence
Then Yossi chides Risa.

sure enough, nobody knows Rika better than Yossi. ^^

and we see Rika being so happy~

そして梨華自慢の顔が出た！！

(Yossi actual words)　長年で、こう一緒にいますけどそういう女です。

There is something (14) ~Nobody knows better.

Just an example of why nobody knows Rika better than Yossi.

.

They are playing a ranking game whereby the other girls have to guess what the question is after Okada Yui has ranked the girls accordingly.

Screen caps from H!P DVD magazine volume 7

And the reaction from Yossi was almost immediate.

think Yossi was wrong?

.S See! Yossi knows! ^_^

.

.

Next, a little 'boke' moment...

Yossi does pay more attention when Rika is talking.

And the room roared with laughter. Rika was ranked last and if that were the question that Rika thought it were, it just proved that Rika deserved to be the most stupid (since even she thinks she is stupid)

Finally the question was revealed.

'Who you would want most as your mother'

Charmy's back~

Charmy Rika is back.

.

Long, straight and black hair (not really black this time), with her fringe to one side, just the way Yossi likes it. Yeah~

In return, we know it will take just one casual remark from Rika for Yossi to snip her hair short.

There is something (13) Kuchi Community 2007-10-24

1444 full load~~







Note: These are Yossi's true words.
(I didn't make it up, except for her thoughts in the first, second and last pic... hehe...)

When she had this smirk look in the beginning... I was thinking... could it be?.. and then she said it.
and I died!

Million Family 2007-10-23

The best show of Yossi for this month. Generally speaking, this is a nice and entertaining variety show, I would have enjoyed it even without Yossi (^_^)

.

1. Princess Yossi makes her entrance~The sexy dress and tiara is all but a nice decoy. You'll soon know why.Haha.
2. She says she's good with playing hide and seek. A game she's seriously involved in when young. And her intuition tells her the kitchen looks the most suspicious. So that's where she's going to check out first.


3. It's the first time she gets to handle so much cash. 1 million yen~ woo~
4. After the initial shock from the falling cups, she isn't going to fall for the same trick and opens the second cupboard with much aplomb~ Cool and boyish Yossi eh? You haven't seen nothing yet. (>_<) .

5.Boyish mode activated, she goes on a rampage and bursts the ballons with her BARE hands. I'll say that takes guts. Real guts. Any idea how it'll hurt to have the rubber flying and slapping your face at full speed? She's the second lady/girl I've seen who dares to burst balloons like that. The first person is, of course, me XD
6. A little tunneling work. (Well... I wasn't sure I'm glad or disappointed that Yossi's not wearing a shorter dress here.) And what you think she'll do to this stupid tunnel she's forced to crawl through?....


7. Anger gets the better of her naturally and with her full-destruct mode activated, she tears down the silly fortress.
Followed with one hard kick which sends the last standing cupboard flying into the hallway. Haha. From here, she's bestowed with a new title. Princess of Destruction~

8. When time is running out, Yossi switches back on her instinct mode and heads back to the kitchen area, the most fishy-looking place in the whole house. She's damn right. The immovable foil and cling wrap boxes finally give the game away.
Poor boy~ 2mins and 27 seconds left...
All I can say is luck's not on the family's side. I was kinda hoping Yossi won't find the boy in time. The money they are to win is for a good cause, to buy a piano for the little girl. Too bad...

There is something (12) Subliminally...

This morning... There is this someone called Ishikawa Rika around right?

Well, she emailed me...

Yah, she likes to mention her unconsciously .

The way she addresses that Ishikawa-san.

The urge strong enough to mention yet discreet enough to tone it down.

So what we call that? Ermm...

.

There is this someone called Ishikawa Rika around right?

(as if the fans wouldn't know...)

.

.

Now this is what I call

Subliminal Intoxication.

There is something (11) Reminiscence

screencap from 'Making of' 10th Anniversary H!P concert DVD.

So Rika is in fact quite close with Mari and Kei.

.

.

Actually a few months back, Mari had disclosed in her radio show that they had gone drinking after this concert ( ↑ ). Mari said 'they' included Kei, Mari, Rika and~~ Yossi~. She then asked if listeners were surprised to hear that Yossi had gone with them? And all credits should go to Rika for she was the one who had successfully asked Yossi to join them. Mari was truly surprised since Yossi has a repu for being the most private person she knew in h!p.

Mari said Rika had suggested they go for a drink after the concert, and so she had asked Yasuda to join them. Yasuda readily agreed and even suggested to ask Yossi along though Mari found it tough since Yossi was a private person. Therefore she was shocked when she learnt that Rika had managed to convince Yossi to join them. Their session lasted 7-8 hours, during which they talked alot; about work and private matters. Mari said it was a very nice experience as it was the first time she had gone drinking with her kouhai (juniors), both of whom had since turned 22, and well past the legal age to drink in Japan. She looked forward to more of such occasions.

It surprised me too when I heard that Yossi had joined them. I thought she would be hanging out with Maichin and Ayaka instead, since they were together for the concert. Maybe they're together so often, she needed a break from them. Nevertheless, we all know the real reason why. It has to do with this person who cajoled her.

Gatten Gatas 2007-10-15

This week's host is Yossi and Maichin again. Rumors in japanese forums said that the girls recorded three episodes on the same day. But they talk about how the listeners have been supportive and sending in emails (???), and even in today's episode, they said their musical (HeiseiRev) has just ended (??????). Now I'll say the girls have great acting.

Some of the highlights (my highlights)

* A nine year old girl writes in to say she has become a Gatas fan after listening to Gatas latest music single. She likes Maichin and Yossi the most, particularly Yossi because she thinks Yossi is 'kakkoii'. Maichin says she notice that Yossi has many female fans. She realized it when many female fans turned up during their CDS (casual dinner show) just to support Yossi. Yossi herself acknowledges it.

* Someone writes in and asks 'why Gatten doesn't wish its listeners goodnight when the show ends' since Charmy Rika and Miki do for their shows? So Yossi and Maichin proceed to decide on some one-liners for oyasumi - Gatas-style. Yossi, in her 'English' mode, says oyasumi is 'Good Night', and suggests using English. They finally decided on 'Gan Night' (say it with soft cooing voice)

*HEART ni SHOOT: Great roleplaying by the girls though the contents are mediocre. You know the norm girl likes boy or boy likes girl stuff, so I'll skip it. However I notice girly Maichin and boyish Yossi having lots of fun enacting the scenes.

And if the rumor was right again, Rika should appear in next week's show.

my thoughts... OH MY GAH~ What has happened!

eto~

.

*clears throat*
.

Any one with me that she looks really 'bad' in this pic?

.

I mean her hairdo, her accessories and her big chuck of exposed flesh above her endowment. What's with bringing unwanted attention to the fact that her b**bs are actually disproportioned - they are *ahem* low? others quote 'saggy'.

.

What with this cabaret look?

.

Though the only sexy thing in the pic is her collar bones~

There is something (10) Nazo nazo ~

A simple picture deshou?

observe carefully...

why don't you click to enlarge the pic?

still no idea?

.

.

Ermm... you aren't much of a 1444 fan ne?

.

.

Ok, here's a hint.

FUTSAL (FOODsaru~)

.

.

Ah ah~

un un~

ya ya~

.

I know you got it!

Goob Job!
Give yourself a tap on your shoulder.

There is something (09) Gatten Gatas 2007-10-08

No Rika in this week show, so no 1444 neta? You are so wrong!

A listener writes in and asks if Gatten Gatas has any on-air slogan. Yossi and Maichin try to decide one on the spot. When they have finally decided on one after a long time rambling and babbling, Yossi then says, Rika-chan may not like it though... the phrase is not cute.

I almost fainted. My hunch exactly. I, too, have felt that the slogan is too boyish and think that when Rika goes on the show next week she will bound to protest. It seems Yossi has felt the same.

Next, another listener wants to know who the real 'samui' character in H!P is. You and me know it has to be our Rika-chan, right? From the way other girls have been making fun of her and saying she is 'kimoi' and stuffs like that? And the fact that even the kids think that way, right? Thinking that Yossi is thinking, Maichin says 'Ishikawa Rika' and it so happens that her voice has drowned out Yossi's answer. (I have to rewind it many times to hear Yossi say 'there are none'). Then instead of delving on Maichin's answer, Yossi asks for the next question. See? No doubt Yossi often makes fun of Rika saying she is kimoi, when the time comes and she really has to decide, she can't bring herself to say it. Because there are none and because in her heart, Rika isn't. ^^

10th anniversary concert

The 10th anniversary concert has to be the most uninteresting H!P concert I’ve ever seen.

Even Yossi’s presence in this concert barely do enough to sustain my interest in the parts she appeared in, like Ongaku Gatas, Baby Koi ni knockout, Dance and Chance and the encore song. I either skip or skim through all other performances, though I sit painfully through Kanashimi Twilight, curious to know who gets to sing Yossi’s lines. I am surprised that it is shared by Reina and Takahashi and I will say they did NOT bad.

There is another thing I want to single out though. It is the way Yossi catwalks on stage during the opening for 'Dance and Chance'. She looks so very cute and I find the sight highly amusing. Do you people also notice the way she swings her arm - a la supermodel? So~~ feminine and so~~ unlike her. She intends to be sexy, I find her uber funny instead. I am not saying Yossi isn't sexy. She IS~ In fact, she just have to pout those thin sexy lips of hers to get me in hysterical mode.

There’s also a little 1444 moment during Ongaku Gatas's MC. Although it had looked scripted, it was better than nothing. During the MC, Yossi had said that the best part of being in Ongaku Gatas was because … She walked towards Rika and when everybody thought she meant Rika she walked past Rika and placed her arm around Konkon instead and said 'Because Konkon’s in it. Funny no doubt, but Rika with her expression behind them convinced me the neta was planned. She had a really exaggerated ‘look up and down’ glare at Yossi which kinda gave the game away. Well, I can only say it is so Rika - being professional and showing it. Not natural at all. Rika is most natural when she gets genuinely pissed, an act I think Yossi has a gift for. Then we shall all see 1444 at its best. Haha~

Now I hope for some backstage scenes…

Heisei titbits~

When I read an entry by Shibata Ayumi in Heisei Rev. official blog about how someone had pulled an ad-lib during the second day's show, with the person looked to do it again if chances arose, most importantly, she feared it might be on her, Yossi's name quickly came to my mind since I know she likes doing ad-lib. So, after checking a Yossi's fan blog, my guess is confirmed.

It supposedly happened during a scene when everyone had safely escaped from the burning house and Maichin was asking everyone if they were all right, but when she forgot with her next line, Yossi helped her by asking her line back as a question. Isn't Yossi nice?
