Girlfriend 「What were you doing just now？」 

Me 「Just reading Karin-chan's blog post」 

Girlfriend「That's what you're doing？ In front of your girlfriend?」 

Me 「Sorry…」 

Girlfriend 「Between me and that Karin girl, who's more important？」 

Me 「…Karin-chan」 

Girlfriend 「Even though you have to pay money and all you get is a handshake？」 

Me 「Sorry…」 

Girlfriend 「You're hopeless、 you're saying that an idol you can't go out with, is better than your girlfriend？」 

Me 「It's beyond reason, that's why」 

Girlfriend 「You're delusional about idols… What if she betrays you someday？」 

Me 「Karin-chan's not that kind of girl！ You're making me mad」 

Girlfriend 「…Let's split up」 

Me 「…Okay」 


No regrets

Most Exciting Song (TopYell+ 2014 H!P Great Dictionary)

In TopYell+ H!P edition (March 2014), there's a segment that's referred to as the Hello! Pro great dictionary - basically your run of the mill questionnaire.

Just so you know, not going to be following the proper question order either.

Without further ado:

Q2. Among all of Hello! Pro's songs, which song makes you most excited?

Tsunku♂ reflecting on the past

そんなん言うから自分でも歌詞読み直したわ。「友達」は確かに深いかもね。RT @kako0306: @tsunkuboy 最近「友達は友達なんだ！」「がんばっちゃえ！」の本当の意味みたいなものが分かってきました。他にも以前の曲を久しぶりに聞くと当時とは違った聞こえ方がします。

@kako0306: @tsunkuboy  Tsunku♂-san, recently I've come to understand the true meaning behind 「Tomodachi ha Tomodachi nanda！」and 「Ganbacchae！」。 Besides that, listening to other songs I haven't heard in a long time, I hear them in a different way。
@tsunkuboy:  Seeing those words made me go through the lyrics again。 「Tomodachi」 is pretty deep。

My Jam: Rev. from DVL/RiZ - LOVE-arigatou-

So, Rev.from DVL.  For a good introduction to the group, I recommend Serenyty's write-up on Happy Disco. Even if you aren't familiar with the group, you've probably heard of the 'one-in-a-thousand-year prospect' Hashimoto Kanna, who's a member of the group.
