Hachamecha: Fun Time

The more I see of Hachamecha the more that I love this group, they are kind of like an Indie version of Momoiro Clover Z. What I mean by this is they are just a free spirited ball of energy, which does just about whatever comes to mind first.
Here is some must watch footage of Hachamecha out discovering the world around them, it`s pretty entertaining.


They make contact with the locals


In this they discover the wonders of the big city and that a broke idol can`t buy stuff .One wants to take a statue and they also discover alien life.



In this episode they head to the park with a cardboard cutout to try a start a space program that consists of helium balloons and trying to launch a member into space. They also try launching an orbiter into space.



And lastly they discover a new land with strange creatures, customs and eat bugs



Singing
This is a Nico Nico screen capture, so the volume is not very loud
So you may want to turn up your notebook volume some.

For The Love Of Idol




This is a little video story about asfi and their wotas that I like to call “For The Love Of Idol” . For it is the love of idols that drive men to do things without shame in public and have fun doing it. Idol genre it`s a wonderful thing.

Steam Girls Win Award







There are all types of end of the year  publication, product manufacturers and industry awards that artists can receive and one is the “Golden Bird Newcomer Award”

This year the award was given to Alice 10 brand new sister unit Steam Girls .The Cyber Punk/Steam Punk themed unit who just debut a few days ago has been a media buzz in the Indie ranks since they first hit the stage.

Idol Round Up: Idol Special Edition



Afilia Saga East, Marry Doll, Nantokan and Backstage Pass members come together for a little TV fun.
Nantokan steal the show ,I think.

BABYMETAL Rocks Singapore



BABYMETAL took their heroine of dark idol metal to Singapore and chaos was the result.

As to the new song, that song is not allowed to be aired and any web cast will not have it in the broadcast. It`s a song that you can listen to only in live event until the official release. But all is not lost the very charming song Uki Uki★Midnight is in the set list for broadcast. It`s my favorite next to the new song, which you`ll like as it`s been done in lives across Japan for some time now.

So welcome to a world were Idols are our overlords
