New Single Out - 2010.01.20 - 「ヒカリノカゲ」"Hikari no Kage" Check it out if you haven't already! You won't be dissappointed. http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTQwNjMyNDE2.html
^ I've been listening to their new song a lot lately, and I really like it. According to their website (more specifically, here: http://www.babestar.net/babestar/-/Information/A020878.html#media), they're scheduled to appear on Music Fighter (1/22), Music Japan (1/24), and MelodiX (1/30) to promote Hikari no Kage. I'm excited that they're starting to do more promotion and am really looking forward to watching them perform the song live. For anyone who might be interested in hearing other recent songs from 9nine, here's the music video for their last single, Smile Again, that was released back in October last year.

Yup it's nice to see them get some TV exposure. Since Perfume hosts Music Japan, it'll be fun to see if A~chan says anything about her little sister. I'm hoping someone's gonna record those shows and post them. Also they'll be on DJ Tomoaki's radio show next week! 1/28 - 21:00-22:30 Japan Time http://www.shimokitafm.com/ Everyone should be able to watch it off the show's website. It only seems to play in IE though.
Just wanted to put a couple things out there. Let's see if we can spark up some conversation. She ranked #8 in the same poll last year. I haven't seen many of her works, but from I've seen so far she's pretty impressive. Really good with her expressions.

Triple post... Hoping someone else posts soon. Anyway, more stuff from YouTube. Hikari no Kage (Full PV) [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4fes3yQwzI[/yt] Hikari no Kage Live on Music Fighter (2010.01.22) [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCyf2xy-aOI[/yt] Screencap from Music Japan (2010.01.24) I thought this was really cute! Mom must be proud.
I've been trying to get into this group, but I think 'cause there isn't really any member my type in the group nothing's really clicking Some of their songs are pretty nice though. I'm surprised their new song is charting so low though, Kawashima seems pretty well known, I thought they'd have a bigger fanbase or something.
I always think that Chapon looks like Yuka Masuda both are very talented and a little serious with her work [clap]
I was recently able to watch 9nine's "It's SHOW TIME!! Ver:SAKURA '09 Part.1" concert. It was the final 8nin live back in March 2009 before Marie Ashida, Midori Yamaoka, and Mai Yoshida graduated from the group. I thought it was pretty enjoyable although fairly short as they only performed 7 songs. Here's a performance I uploaded of "Kaze wo Okoshite". [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHfLJ4UTA8Q[/yt] The "Part 2" concert featured the 5 remaining members of the group. I haven't seen it unfortunately, but I was able to find that someone had uploaded a performance of "sky" from that concert on YouTube. [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQhiRZZvSjc[/yt]
Man! Do you know where I can watch this concert? I really loved 9nine back them (well I'm still loving them now), I'm so sad they're only 5 now. Moreover we can't see them really often. Kaze Wo Okoshite is one of my favourit song, and the perf is really beautiful. I hate LesPros entertainment for make girls disappear wedunnowhy. Is that Yoshida Mai that's singing first? I think my top 4 songs (because I don't know what should I put as 5st) is something like 1. Hyouryuu Shoujo 2. Kaze wo okoshite 3. MONSTER 4. Arigatou
^ Yeah, Mai Yoshida is the one that sings first in the "Kaze wo Okoshite" video. I miss the 8/9 member lineup too, especially after watching the concert. I wish they had gotten some more exposure back then. In regards to the concert, I was actually able to watch it after luckily finding download links for it. If interested in downloading the 5gb ISO file spread across 20 Megaupload links xD, I can upload the text file I found with all the links. Otherwise, I could try to upload a few other performances to YouTube or something. Here's the setlist for the DVD: 1. awake 2. Shiroi Hana ~White Garden~ 3. Kanashimi wa Itsuka Hane ni Naru / Marie Yoshida, Midori Yamaoka, Madoka Shimogaki, Umika Kawashima 4. cotton candy / Mai Yoshida, Sayaka Nishikawa, Uki Satake, Moe Miura 5. Nemureru Mori no Shoujo 6. Kaze wo Okoshite 7. Sweet Snow

looks like this thread isn't updated yet.. i love them, since.... yesterday.. especially Hiroro. she is totally cute.. they're gonna release 2 new single for this year.. and, is anybody know where to get Hiroro's PB? i need that one..
I just discovered them because I was reading about Perfume members in generasia lol I kinda love Fly and Shoujo Traveler, but haven't listened much of them. And... isn't it a bit weird they're five and yet their name is still 9nine? If you choose a number for the name of your band, that happens... why don't they hold auditions for more members? :/
I love 9nine ever since the Star Driver anime. Good to see 9nine doing the song for Star Driver the Movie [rock] I love shining star and cross over. [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXC7q_rkwOY[/yt] Preview of the song at 0:50
