This will be my first time reviewing and watching a full Berryz Koubou concert. They are the only Hello Project group, now besides S/mileage and Mano Erina, that I have yet to watch a full concert of. I don't know why. This concert's album is a favorite of mine, but I do adore most of their music. While, C-ute seems to be improving their single releases. In my opinion, Morning Musume and Berryz Koubou are both hitting a dry spell when they release okay singles, but sub-par to what they've done in the past. Since I am unsure how I will take it I will prepare you for both rating systems, and I'll just go with how I feel will give the best representation of it.

I adore Risako's voice! I like Berryz Koubou style of wearing some-what normal street clothes. You can tell that they were put together when they were young because now they appear a bit mismatched. I am so happy that the giant got a make over and now stands center because just pushing her to the side doesn't work. Is this an old song? I don't know where this one comes from. . . I don't care. Awh! I love you Risako-chan! What is her nickname? The song is okay, but I wouldn't listen to it on my iPod to be honest.

Ew. . . those costumes. Anything that isn't casual clothes they don't do that well. It looks either Alice in Wonderland or Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. From how they look now I would recommend they get a morning kid's show where they teach them valuable lessons with some random school stuff here and there. However, when I consider their age I start to wonder if they should start to go through a transition like C-ute is. This is one of those songs where there are elements that I like, and I think it is okay, but I still don't care for it. To be honest, with their current image and everything I just don't see them being super popular or even growing in popularity. I just see them stuck in their niche.

Koi no Jubaku
Risako is one of those few idols who can pull off gaining weight, do you understand what I am saying? Most would lose their spot or drop in popularity. However, (while I don't think the producers are happy about it) the only thing it has caused is that people (including Risako) are more mesmerized by her boobs. : 3 I adore most of their old singles. (Really embarrassed if this wasn't a single.)

Tomodachi wa Tomodachi Nanda!
Maybe it is easier to perform happy songs, but I felt like the performance was slightly better because it didn't look like they were just doing the bare minimum for a good performance. Then again, I wish they did more (like play around with each other). I've yet to see one of those delicious, unexpected, concert moments.

Yakimochi wo Kudasai! (Shimizu, Tokunaga, Sugaya)Hphm. . . still no spark. I spent my time thinking about pretty much everything, but the performance. What I don't like is the fact that it is a good performance, but I am not enjoying it or getting excited. I paid more attention to Risako's chest (and whether or not that outfit was flattering for her) and the audience's chants. This leaves me with a feeling that I don't know if I like it or not. There wasn't anything that I disliked, but nothing that stood out. I feel like I should take away a heart and a star. Then again, I feel like they deserve the credit.

Ground Demo Rouka Demo Medatsu Kimi (Sudou, Kumai)While I do like this song, I wasn't impressed. Thankfully Kumai has already gotten a much needed make-over (and she look spectacular). Sudou could use one too because at this point she feels like back-up. Kumai's voice sounds flat and doesn't do this song justice.

These are the best costumes yet. The performance and everything is nice, but I still think they could do better.

I like how they stuck with a theme. Tsunku should really try to give them their own show, not a variety show, but like a drama.

That just made me smile like a motherf*cker.

Wonderful staging on this one. (A little too high for some people.)

I like this idea of a medley because then you can get in a lot more songs without it getting to long or anything. I wish they developed more as a group. I adore their odd image they have now, but I fill like it is too young for them now. I wish they tried something more mature like what C-ute is doing.

Momo has a great butt.

This is one of my least favorite singles from them. But they did a good job with it.

That was cute, but I kept on hearing 'they're so hot' or 'they're so hard' which doesn't make much sense unless there are innuendoes running wild here.

Done well, but pretty boring.

Now I don't like this song. I really don't like this song. Sorry girls.

This is so absurd that you can't helping enjoying it!

sad face: What happened to those single costumes. . . i liked them very much. The performance and vocals weren't as good as they've been in the past.

This was more on point.

I think Momo and Risako are getting tired, they need a little bit of spice. There it is! God, I love Risako's roar. boob touch.

The only thing I don't like is the chorus and that stupid, country-sounding back track section. To bad they weren't like this when Digimon was awesome; they'd be a perfect pairing.

They don't know how to dress some of these girls. Besides, most of them look more Hot Topic (clothing store) than rock and roll.

If only I liked this better. That was cute. She lost her voice and the audience sang her lines.
