Up to Boy Vol.183

Sunday, 28th October 2007 01:36

Never has an issue of Up to Boy been crying out for a cover with Hello!Project members on it than this one. I know that the current trend with Up to Boy is not feature H!P on the cover but with the amount of members featuring in this issue it seems obvious (to me at least) to feature them on the cover, something similar to the first issue of Up to Boy I bought (Vol.165), which featured Sayumi, Eri and Reina on the cover in a group photo. So whose in this issue? It really is packed, we have; Aichan, Eri, Reina, a Berryz segment and a couple of pages on Buono! altogether spanning 15 pages.
Starting with Aichan and her PB Water, when I look at these photos I can't help but compare her to Charmy's photos in the last issue. Although not all of her photos featured her short hair there are a couple that do, I can't help but think that it doesn't suit Aichan as much as it did Charmy. I certainly think that her new shorter haircut looks a lot better when it's scruffy as it suits the shape of her face really well.
Eri is next with her PB Maple. This looks amazing and I've yet to see an Eri PB that dissapoints, her first solo book is still one of my favourites and on that basis (and seeing these shots) this has to rate highly, it also features what I think is the best bikini to ever feature in a H!P release, the bottom left bikini on her second scan. Eri really does an amazing body and much like Konkon, it's not until I see her in a bikini that I realise that I've seriously underated her looks.
Reina's PB Girl is also a PB that I've been looking forward to, at the moment it's sitting on my side waiting for me to have a proper look at it, but it's good to see a quick few shots of this release and it's really got me in the mood to grab it and have a look, in fact it'll be the next thing I do when I finish typing this. Reina's releases, much like Eri's are always impressive, she's able to wear any combination of outfits and look unbeliavbly great in them, she really has an advantage over other member of Morning Musume when it comes to what she can wear. Another reason I really like Reina's PBs is beacuse you're guaranteed a couple of shots of her in long socks and stockings! Being a guy I have my odd little fetishes and the long socks/stockings is one that rates near the top, especially when worn by someone with her looks.

In the back of this issue is a two page spread on Buono!, is it me or are Buono! everywhere at the moment? I know they're a new unit and they're promoting the Anime but it seems that they are recieving more publicity then any other unit in recent times, well at least that's what it seems to me. The main shot featuring Airi, Miyabi and Momo looks amazing, the bland colours of their surroudings really brings out their costumes a lot and again, Momo is catching my eye, lol, what's come over me?


The DVD included with issue features pretty much the same as usual we have previews of the PBs and a couple of extra featurettes. Normally I only post up the previews, but watching the Angel Battles, I noticed that one of them featured to girl fans of H!P, it's a really good watch and I'm really jealous of the prizes they win (I'm presuming they're prizes as I can't really understand what is actually going on) the most amusing thing is the strange wota dance she does which not only caught me by surprise but also the other girl in clip, it's the first time I've actually seen a girl doing something like this.

Thanks for the heads up guys, I've just made a post about it. This was such a surprise, really didn't see it coming...although none of us saw any of the incidents this year happening.

I just picked up this issue on Saturday and it is indeed packed with H!P! So much that they really should be on the cover one would think. Have you ordered Kamei's shashinshuu yet?

I haven't ordered Kamei's PB yet, I was hoping to give one of the shops in London a try and order it through them, my thinking was if they are decent put more of my orders through them as it would be a lot easier to pick up...although I've just spoke to one of the staff and they say that it will take 3 weeks to get here and cost £35 about 3 times the price that it is on Amazon :O
Looks like I'll be getting through Amazon then.
