I have no choice but to believe
I have no choice but to commit to the end
I'm not doing it for anyone else
I'm not doing it for me, right?

“Yoshi Yoshi Shitehoshiino”
Coupled with “Teenage Solution” and “Beat No Wakusei”
Release date: December 8, 2021
Oricon Weekly placement: 2nd
Members: Akane Haga, Ayumi Ishida, Chisaki Morito, Erina Ikuta, Homare Okamura,  Kaede Kaga, Maria Makino, Masaki Sato, Mei Yamazaki, Miki Nonaka, Mizuki   Fukumura, Reina Yokoyama, Rio Kitagawa, Sakura Oda
Morning Musume hardly play coy of their intent behind "Yoshi Yoshi Shitehoshiino." It's all openly displayed in the title, a pouty request to be petted on the head (yoshi yoshi), which the idols spin into a nagging central refrain as well as a point move in the choreography. But they also remain too true to their character for their own good, unable to fully commit to their attemped act of vanity. Before they can completely indulge in the chorus, they quickly put back on a cool, unaffected face in order to maintain the emotionally stoic personality established at least since the beginning of the Numeral era.
The stubbornness in "Yoshi Yoshi Shitehoshiino" calls to my mind songs from their sister groups. I'm thinking in particular of Juice=Juice's single "'Hitoride Ikiraresou'-tte Sorettenee, Hometeiruno?," where their reputation of being seemingly self-sufficient turns into a crutch. Not as overtly referential to the tough and cool as the electric guitar licks of Juice=Juice's record, but the airtight electro-pop production of "Yoshi Yoshi Shitehoshiino" communicates a similar steeliness that spares no room for humor: besides the titular hook and the sentimental shojo refrain, the Tsunku-isms here are conservative, with it relegated to syntax than any singular turns of phrase.
That said, the idols lets in on a sneak peek at a rather dark reason behind their obsession to keep up this facade of perfection. "My smile is my self-defense," they sing in the second verse, and they reiterate on and on about how practically every bit of their professional behavior is their defense mechanism against being perceived, yes, as Tsunku decides to put it, a sentimental shojo -- a too-sensitive girl who doesn't have her shit together. The sheer repetition telegraphs how exhausting an act it is, but their resigned sigh through it all sounds even more heartbreaking with the assumption being they've long given up on anyone hearing them out.
Morning Musume is a prisoner of their own doing in "Yoshi Yoshi Shitehoshiino." Their reputation as a perfection-obsessed idol group validates the narrative within. But to confuse their lack of displaying of emotion as them being entirely indifferent to emotion would be just feeding into a self-fulfilling cycle. Coincidentally, "Yoshi Yoshi Shitehoshiino" is among the first singles with their accompanying music videos being absent of closed captions of its lyrics and its English translations -- one has to read between the lines even closer to see how the idols really feel. And it's cruel how the steeliness of the production but also the idols' performance scrubs any hint of their true insecurity from rising to the surface.

some mouse doodles i did of 9ki and 13ki of Morning Musume ♥ I really loved these outfits but my tablet hadn’t been working at the time, so I opted for some cute simple doodles.  I think Erina came out best though, something about her was sooo captivating for this tour!

Bucchigiri Episode Titles
Unless you're familiar with Japanese music I don't think you'd realize this so I thought I'd make a post about it.
All of the episode titles are references to the titles of songs. They mixed the names of love songs with Chinese food names.
Ep 1: 「合体!?恋するフォーチュンバンバンジー!」 Merge!? Fall in Love with Fortune Bang Bang Chicken!
Song: AKB48 - Koisuru Fortune Cookie Fall in love with a Fortune Cookie
youtube
Ep 2: 「君を乗せたい!チューチュー・チンジャオローストレイン!」 Wanna Take You On! The Chu Chu Chinese Pepper Steak Train!
Song: Exile - Choo Choo TRAIN
youtube
Ep 3: 「なぐり愛!世界に一つだけのウズラ」 Love at Fist Fight! The One and Only Quail in the World (The first part of the title is a play on words with 殴り合い(fist fight) but they replaced the second kanji with the kanji for love.)
Song: SMAP - Sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana The one and only flower in the world
youtube
Ep 4: ストップ戦争(ウォー)!~時には食せよゴーヤチャンプルー~」 Stop the war! ~Sometimes You Gotta Eat Goya Chanpuru~
Song: H Jungle with t - WOW WAR TONIGHT ~時には起こせよムーヴメント〜 WOW WAR TONIGHT ~Sometimes You Gotta Start a Movement~
youtube
Ep 5: 「戦慄!エビチリは雪のように!」 Frightening! Chili Shrimps Falling Down Like Snowflakes!
Song: Hamada Shougo - 悲しみは雪のように Sadness is like Snow (Looking at the lyrics of this song, it's actually saying sadness is accumulating like snow but sure... good enough)
youtube
Ep 6: 「友情マシマシ!ニラレバリューション21!」 Much Much Friendship! "Nira-Reba"-lution 21! (I don't even know why they didn't even try to translate the food this time. It's garlic-chive liver stir fry. It says "garlic-chive liver-lution".)
Song: Morning Musume - Renai Revolution 21 Love Revolution 21

“Teenage Solution”
Coupled with “Yoshiyoshishitehoshino” and “Beat No Wakusei”
Release date: December 8, 2021
Oricon Weekly placement: 2nd
Members: Akane Haga, Ayumi Ishida, Chisaki Morito, Erina Ikuta, Homare Okamura,  Kaede Kaga, Maria Makino, Masaki Sato, Mei Yamazaki, Miki Nonaka, Mizuki   Fukumura, Reina Yokoyama, Rio Kitagawa, Sakura Oda
Arriving about a year after “Love Pedia,” “Teenage Solution” complicates the well established personality of Morning Musume’s 15th generation. If the music video to the former song reflected any bit of their on-screen character, the three’s bubbly, almost painfully wholesome personality really showed through: this is a trio whose youngest member urges that you refer to pandas with an honorific while the second youngest has made yakiniku her entire personality. But instead of cutesy synths, a melodramatic string arrangement opens “Teenage Solution” like rolling thunder. The three are the first voices you hear, coming off stern and emotionally closed off: “I won’t let anyone notice it / my cooled emotions.”
True to the song’s title, the three now seem to enter their rebel phase of their young lives. They can’t seem to feel satisfied no matter what they do nor can they figure out what exactly they need. The pre-chorus in particular sees the idols constantly trying to find their footing on the melody, syncing with the idols’ own discomfort in their own heads. The lines run on like they don’t know where to pause and punctuate as they get involved in a restless mental push and pull: “Like I did last year, I want to spend the night at a friend’s house (I want to) / but if I did, this part, right here, gets angry, saying / ‘muu, it’s not supposed to be like that.’” Suddenly, everything has changed from their body, their relationships, to their life perspectives.
The parenthetical in those particular lyrics are uttered by the 15th generation in a deadpan voice. Their stern one-liners culminate in the bridge as their inner monologues crowd the track before they close out with a mic drop of a script: “It’s just that there are times. without even thinking about it, when I get really annoyed -- of myself.” Of course, the rest of Morning Musume also sings in “Teenage Solution,” and yet the song positions more focus on the 15th generation as its main protagonist through its structure, if not its theme. “Teenage solution / no one can solve it / ah, even if you’re older than me / you can’t just yet / even with your love,” they sing, putting up a wall as teenagers do, and it’s not difficult to fit the senior-junior dynamic into this scene.
The unsettling, hard-to-soothe personality also informs the music of “Teenage Solution” for better or worse. The song offers hardly any release as the emotional tension tightens without rest. As mentioned, the pre-chorus is difficult to grasp with its lack of immediate hooks and an elusive melody that its singers seem to trip up on; the chorus ultimately doesn’t provide much of a resolve after the idols raise the anxiety levels more and more in the pre-chorus. The music starts to feel secondary as an aid to the unfolding narrative, giving little point of entry for the uninitiated.
“Teenage Solution” better intrigues as a character study than a song proper. Even in the context of the group as a whole beyond just the 15th generation, it’s not so typical to hear Morning Musume sound so full of inner angst. The idols seemed in tune with their emotions for a while since the Numeral era kicked off, embracing even their negative facets as opportunities rather than flaws. But here, they not only struggle to articulate the feeling but they also fail to find the root. If the music sounds restless and oblique, it’s arguably only reflective of the head space of the idols themselves.

―― 外の世界で感じたことについてもう少しお話を聞いてもいいですか? 佐藤優樹:世の中には本当にいろんな人がいるんだなって思いました。仕事を頑張りすぎて泣いちゃう人もいれば、つらすぎてお酒に逃げてしまう人もいる。そういうことを今まで知らなかったんです。ある日ごはん屋さんに一人で行ったんですけど、立ち上がったタイミングで隣の席の女の人にぶつかっちゃって。そうしたらすごい怒られちゃったんです。でもどう見ても普段からそんなこ��を言うような人には見えなかったので「どうしたんですか? 大丈夫ですか!?」って逆に聞き返してみました。 ――すごい展開ですね(笑)。 佐藤優樹:そうしたらその女の人が急にワッて泣き出しちゃって。「大丈夫ですか? お姉さんおいくつですか?」って質問して。そうしたら「21歳です、もうすぐ22歳になります」って言うので、「きっと私たち同じ学年じゃないですか!」みたいな感じで返したらそこから会話が弾んでいきました。どうやらその女性は仕事がすごく大変みたいで。すごく頑張っているのに、それに見合ったお給料がもらえていないと。なのに、おうちまで火事になっちゃって、もっとお金がなくなっちゃったみたいなんです。 ――会話をしていて、佐藤優樹だということには気づかれなかったんですか? 佐藤優樹:はい。でもそうやって話しているうちに、自分の話もちょっとしたりしました。もちろんモーニング娘。のこととかは言わずに。そうしたらその女性が「なんでそんなに変な話がいっぱいあるんですか? 孤独っぽい感じですけど彼氏とかもいなかったんですか?」って言うから「そもそも今までいたことありません」って返したら「それは悲しすぎるー!」と今度は同情されて(笑)。そもそもぶつかっただけで人から怒られたことがなかったし、その怒りを探っていくと“悲しい”という気持ちに繋がっていくということをその女性を通じて知ることができました。そしてみんな気をつかって生きているんだな、私って意外と今まで何も気にしないで生きていたんだなと気づきました。 ――体当たりで世の中のことを知ったわけですね。 佐藤優樹:はい。途中からその女性の彼氏さんが迎えに来たんですけど、そこで落ち着くのかなと思ったら「来るのが遅い!」ってさらに怒っているのも衝撃的でした。好きだから怒るんだとか、付き合うってお互い自分の価値観を壊して一緒に作っていくものなんだとか。そういうことをその二人の会話から知ることができましたね。
-- Would you tell us more about what you've experienced in the world outside show business? Sato Masaki: I've realized that there are so many different kinds of people in the world. There're people who work too hard and that makes them end up crying or quaffing liquor to escape from the stressful reality. I had never heard of such things before. One day I went to a restaurant by myself, and when I got up from my seat, I bumped into a woman sitting at the table next to mine. She got really angry with me. But she didn't seem like the type of person who would usually say such a thing, so I asked her back "What's wrong with you? Are you in any trouble?" -- I didn't expect the situation to develop that way (laughs). Sato Masaki: Then the woman suddenly bursted into tears. I asked "Are you all right? How old are you?" She said "I'm 21, soon to be 22". As I replied "I bet we're in the same grade!", we started a lively conversation. According to what she had told me, her job was pretty hard and she didn't get paid enough for it. And then, to make matters worse, her house caught fire. So she was left with even less money.
-- She didn't notice that you are Sato Masaki during the conversation? Sato Masaki: No, she didn't. But as we kept talking, I told her a bit about myself. Of course, I didn't say anything about Morning Musume. Then she wondered and asked "Why do you have so many unusual stories? You seem being kind of solitary. Didn't you ever have a boyfriend?" I said "I've never had a boyfriend so far". she responded "That's too sad!" and got sympathetic to me just like our roles got reversed. In the first place, I had never got yelled at just by bumping into someone. But as I looked into her anger, I understood that the emotion "sad" could lead to "anger". I've learned it thanks to her, and I also realized that everybody lives worrying about others, which I've never paid much attention to throughout my life so far. -- Now you've learned about the real world through your own experience. Sato Masaki: You can say that. In the middle of our conversation her boyfriend came to pick her up, and I expected it would help her to calm her anger. But she got even angrier telling him "You're coming too late!" I was shocked once again. Still I I've learned many things by listening to their conversation, such as, she gets angry because she loves him, you need to get rid of your own values to build up a common values between you and your partner, and something like that.
