NMB48 A Kawaii Overload??

Did NMB48 go too far with the cuteness?? Would you call this a Kawaii Overload?? Have a look and let me know what you think. I think it's a little over-the-top, but then again that's what the OTAKU's want and it sells. BTW: NMB48 is from Osaka and it stands for "Namba 48". Namba being a part of Osaka.

More about Namba, Osaka from the Wikipedias"

Namba (難波 Nanba^?, IPA: [namba]) is a district of Osaka, Japan. Namba is regarded as the center of so-called Minami ("South") area of Osaka.^[1] Its name is one of variations on the former name of Osaka, Naniwa. Namba is best known as the city's main south-central railway terminus: JR, Kintetsu, Nankai, and three lines of the Osaka Municipal Subway have stations there.

Some of the most famous images of Osaka, including the Glico Man and the Kani Doraku Crab, are located around the Dōtonbori canal in Namba. Namba is also known as an entertainment district, and hosts many of the city's most popular bars, restaurants, nightclubs, arcades, and pachinko parlors. The area is also known for shopping, with the Takashimayadepartment store (for older styles) and the sprawling underground Namba City shopping mall (for newer styles).

Namba Parks is a new development consisting of a high office building, called "Parks Tower," and a 120-tenant shopping mall with rooftop garden. Various kinds of restaurants (Japanese, Korean, Italian, etc.) are located on the 6th floor, and shops on the 2nd to 5th floors. Parks Garden features enough greenery to help visitors forget that they’re in the middle of the city. There is also an amphitheater for live shows, as well as space for small personal vegetable gardens and wagon shops.

Namba is located in Chūō and Naniwa wards.

Yes, Morning Musume is Still Around!!

With all the love going to AKB48 and the eight million other sub-groups spun off of AKB, Morning Musume seems to have been forgotten. Well, I am here to tell you that they are still around and still making "music". I do put music in quotations because some people don't think this over produced noise is music, but I am not one of them. I think that this J-Pop Idol type of music has it's place. I mean cute girls and happy-go-lucky music, it's a formula for happiness, right? Here is the latest Morning Musume Track "Brainstorming" (モーニング娘。 『ブレインストーミング』 (ルーズショット Ver.)) And below this I will put my all time favorite Morning Musume track "Love Machine". It's not the first time I heard their music, but it's the one that was really poplular when I first moved to Japan. I mean it was everywhere! It was on the radio, on TV, on the big TV screens in the shopping districts, just everywhere! モーニング娘。 『LOVEマシーン』(Morning Musume Love Machine)
