Matcha's photoshoot/Miho's second live and a rant on Japan's response to the pandemic
Added 2021-09-09 18:37:59 +0000 UTCAnother long one... sorry this took awhile to reach all of you.
I had no sleep basically for a few days and then was busy being staff for Pentaprism and a whole bunch of other things happened. But... I really go IN DEPTH about Matcha's photobook shoot, plus talk about Miho's second ever live, and I start everything off with yet another absurd response by Japan's government to the current pandemic crisis. And I hope that all of you will take time to listen to this one, because... it's pretty deep and personal to me. And I really would like some feedback. I felt like I reached a new emotional and creative plateau with Matcha's book... it might be my crowning achievement with all of the photobooks I've made so far. And then... to have Miho successfully pull off a second live that included fans doing kecha for her and we even sold merchandise and did cheki... Miho's actually arrived in the idol world.
Yet... still feel somewhat alone, somewhat emotionally not too good. So I'm keeping going and moving forward and hope you'll all be there with me on the journey. Please know I appreciate that you're out there. Please enjoy this and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hey Derek, glad to hear that basically every problem in the Shooting turned out to be a benefit in the end. From what you showed online this will be the best photobook you did so far. And you´re constantly increasing in ideas. Especially this sone seems to have a big narrative and Matcha is the best idol to transport that. Together with Yukinons Book these two are my highlights of late autumn. (Btw. Okinawa Sayas Book is a hidden gem. You totally nailed her character and the narrative captures this too. ) Don´t worry about overfeeding the fishes, you´re not the first person who accidentally eliminated a goldfish and you´re not the last. Normally what fits between thumb and pointing finger is more than enough for a day. Are you planning to release the fishes or do you keep hem as pets? I can give you some advice. It is heartwarming to see Miho and Kosame on their first lives. The new songs sound great and both of them have a powerful performance. Miho knows the perfect balance between Rock and idol and her kindness jumps over to the audience. Kosame also impresses her audience. Her stage power will cause open mouthed audiences who didn´t know her yet. It´s probably like people from the 70s who love Elvis and Abba suddenly get introduced to Sepultura. Which is awesome somehow. Hope it will reflect on her popularity. I´m shooting some more comedy video material this weekend and i´m excited already. I haven´t seen my colleague and friend in months. Hope your week is awesome too and you are able to get some sleep back.
