Promo video for Positivity by Tokyo based singer-songwriter Qoo Bee Little. It’s a song from her debut album, Funny Buzzy… coming in March 2013.
Universal Music labelled her as a “genius”, it’s a dangerous branding because people will have higher expectation of her.
It’s a cute song though, far from great or genius stuff but not bad.

Acid Black Cherry’s Recreation 3 album jacket, which looks simply adorable.
Acid Black Cherry is the solo project of Japanese musician Yasu.
He usually wrote his own songs, but in the Recreation series he covers songs by other artists from different generation instead. In this new album the songs ranged from year 1983 to 1997.
I don’t think the girl in the picture is her daughter though, not even sure if he’s single or married.
Actress Yui Aragaki’s 2013 calendar photos… but without the calendar part except in one of the pictures LoL. She looks so pretty and her smile melts the heart of people. Click image for full size.
AKB48 member Minami Minegishi has shaved her head to apologise for her dating scandal. Dating is a taboo for the popular girl group.
The news became viral, even global network like BBC are picking it up.
Head shaving is a huge humiliation in Japan, and also a sign of regret after making a big mistake. Minegishi’s agency claims that she did that on her own without telling the company management.
The act is too harsh. Guess she’s really scared of the consequences.
That couldn’t stop her from being demoted to a trainee position. It could be worse though, i.e. kicked out from the group completely.
Dating is not allowed in ABK48, although the company never officially admitted the rules. It’s also common practise in other J-pop idol groups.
Many of them still date in secret, just don’t get caught haha.
Music video for Hitohira no Hanabira by all-girl rock band Stereopony. The song was the 17th ending theme for anime series Bleach.
Formed in Okinawa, Stereopony was active between 2007 and 2012. The three-member group have released 11 singles, three studio albums, and also a compilation album. They held their farewell concert last December.
Hitohira no Hanabira was their major debut in 2008. It may or may not be not their best selling single but most likely their most popular song over time because of the lasting legacy of Bleach.
