Since YouTube Red launched in the USA, we haven’t been able to practically any Hello! Project videos. Up-Front has finally come to an agreement with YouTube and accepted the terms to their satisfaction, which means that we can finally view videos in the USA again. This comes at a very opportune time, with the recent announcement of Morning Musume ’16 coming to Texas for a concert next year. YouTube has been one of the main sources of information for foreign fans for years, and it’s very reassuring to know that they have finally fixed the problem for American fans. Keep in mind, YouTube Red is slated to roll out to the rest of the world over the span of 2016, so it’s good that Up-Front solved the problem before the rest of the overseas (and even domestic) fans suffered from this problem. There is a slight catch though. Since they are actively working on getting everything up to speed again, all videos aren’t available. They are rolling out over time, with most Morning Musume ’15 and ANGERME videos already up. I suspect that within the next month we’ll see everything pop up and life will be back to normal for fans yet again. Not only that, this means that fans can start uploading covers and other creative work involving Hello! Project music yet again. I hope that other companies who have suffered from this problem are able to sort things out soon as well.

For those of you who are living here in America, you may remember the last two times Morning Musume delivered phenomenal performances here. The first time was in Los Angeles through Anime Expo in 2009 and the second time was in New York City (as Morning Musume ’14) in 2014. Well, guess what? They’re coming back!
Due to the success of the previous two events, they’ve just announced that they’ll be coming (as Morning Musume ’16) in 2016 to Houston, Texas. This time, they’ll be coming through Anime Matsuri, an anime convention, as the main guest. The convention itself will be taking place from February 26 (Friday) to February 28 (Sunday), 2016. Morning Musume ’16 will be holding a Q&A and Press Conference on February 26 and the concert itself will be on February 27. Entry will be granted to anybody who has a convention badge, and early access will be offered to anybody who holds the Superpass. Keep in mind that Superpass sales are limited to 300, so get them quickly while you can. This is an exciting time to be able to welcome Morning Musume back in America, and let’s make it the warmest welcome we can. Check out the links below for more information, and also to keep up to date as more details are released. - Teepu (Bowser05) Official Announcement From Up-Front Link: https://www.facebook.com/notes/up-front-link/en-morning-musume16-main-guest-of-the-convention-in-houston-anime-matsuri/977248849000699 Official Anime Matsuri Site: http://www.animematsuri.com/ Morning Musume ’16 Details from Anime Matsuri’s Site: http://www.animematsuri.com/guest/morning-musume/ Le Siana is a small idol group based out of Nara, who started their activities in October of 2012. The group currently has two singles and an album out and they just uploaded the music videos for their third single 「やまとなでシカ」 (“Yamato Nade Shika”) as well as their major debut single 「まほらば!」 (“Mahoraba!”) on December 2, 2015! Even though it is now December, やまとなでシカ definitely has an upbeat, summer-esque feel to it, as the girls are playfully running around a small creek shooting each other with water guns. The music video also shows them around the outside of the Todaiji Temple which is famous for its great number of deer living in its park. While やまとなでシカ an upbeat song, まほらば!has a much lighter and soft feel to it. The music video for this major debut single of theirs is a fairly simple, yet refreshing video. [Both videos can be found below] I would definitely recommend checking out Le Siana and keeping them on your to-watch list in the future to see them grow into a great unit! ~Eric All pictures from Le Siana's Twitter.
