The Official Momoiro Clover Z & Stardust Planet Thread

This is a surprise. Riko solo MV. A little late for summer though, lol. It's promoting her upcoming solo concert, but using an Ebichu song. Just random clips of her wandering around.

Shiori injured the tip of her right index finger while shooting a show for Abema and she'll be out for a month

Okay, no more changing tires for Shiori. Seems like she keeps getting injured or sick lately. What a delicate flower, lol.

Looks like she's back already!

But she'll have to do with the finger protection for the time being

Kanako held her first solo concert "Talk with me" during the weekend!




She performed two unreleased songs, a new song called Hikari made of lyrics she wrote on her commutes between Shizuoka and Tokyo, and Sorezore no mirai which she performed for the first time on the Valentine's live in 2020.

Iginari Tohokusan follow Taconiji by doing a blindfolded dance practice, and it's a lot of fun! They also do sped up and slowed down songs


I've been listening to their music a lot in recent months so this was a good opportunity for me to put a name to all their faces.

Some thoughts

Spoiler

Ujira to Omedazu looks chaotic enough without blindfolds
Karen (pink) is going twice as hard as anyone else and is just a menace in general, how does she have so much energy? 3:15 and the intro are the funniest
Hinano (orange) is also a menace
Is the 1000 years of death technique @9:48 part of the choreo?
Kahya (red) wasn't part of re;star, so she didn't know the choreo for the b-side
Hikaru (white) and Miu (turqoise) were at the back for most of it

Finally Stardust Planet festival was held yesterday and a second cinderella was chosen!

Spoiler

The winner was....




Iginari Tohoku San's Tachibana Karen!


I might make another post about the festival but let it be said that I think it was a great choice. I find her more and more admirable the more I see and read about her.
Like her thoughts after turning 18.
Tacoyaki Rainbow also returned to the stage for the day!

I'll have some things to post later, but I just wanted to say I'm happy for Karen becoming this year's Cinderella. I saw allot of videos popping up of her from the festival, so I figured she must have won. You never can tell who's going to be chosen. I'm glad that it's not predictable and almost anyone can win!

Yes! If the most popular members always won it wouldn't have been very exciting. I thought Aki, another Tokisen member or maybe Seta Sakura would win but like last time it was a member from a less popular group! With Momoclo, Ebichu, Shachi and Taconiji members out of the running (+ Stardust DD fans) there are a lot of undecided voters so it's hard to predict. This time Tohoku San's performances got a good response.

I obviously love the choice as you might have guessed based on my last few posts. I'm very happy for her and the group


And I like your new DP and sig! The look fits Aki really well

Ayaka has been killing it on IG lately! This is just a sampling of the photo shoot she did for the Kimono Gallary site. The Kimono she's wearing is vintage.

Thanks for the compliment Aki posted some costume pics on IG so I went over to her YouTube channel and she had just uploaded the behind the scenes video. Normally when she does cosplay, Aki does everything herself, but this time she had a professional make up artist do everything including trimming the wig so it would look better. I only wish she'd posted it sooner since Halloween was over by the time I found it. I'll still keep the set till the end of November since cute vamp Aki is too hard to resist.
