I'm always excited when I received an "upcoming artist newsmail" from CDJapan in my inbox ^^ and I'm so surprised to see who it was:

Koike Teppei with his upcoming solo single!! yahooooooooooooo! titled "Jack in the Box" and will be released on July 15th, wow so fast! they haven't released the cover yet. I'd never thought that the lovely teppei will release another solo album after his "pieces" in 2007 'cause he seemed to enjoy working as a duo with Wentz Eiji ^^

but I'm also concerned about this. it was anounced that WaT would release a single on February 25th. but when it was near the released date they canceled the single and no further news about that.
then suddenly on June teppei released a solo single! and now he's gonna release his solo single! ~___~ not that I'm not happy with this wonderful news 'cause I love to listen teppei sings solo with his guitar but.. I'm also worried about what's happening to WaT?

and about teppei's Kimi Dake single.. I like it. but not as much as I like Kimi ni Okuru Uta ^^ he sounds more mature in this single.
the B-side track, Love Lighter sounds catchy and I like it better than Kimi Dake itself. and I really love the acoustic version of Kimi ni Okuru Uta, reminds me of the reason why I fell in love with this guy xD

and it's almost July already but why I haven't found the HQ .avi encoded of that PV??? o___O the youtube version is everywhere but why is no HQ PV?? *am I the stupid one who couldn't find the HQ PV or it's actually hard to find?*
I found it at jpop.cn but registration is needed and I'm still waiting for them to approve my account (which sounds like impossible, that's why I hate chinese forum 'cause they usually have bunch of good stuff but I regret that I don't understand any of their language except probably.. wo ai ni? and dui bui qi or whatever it's called)

did someone watch Homeless Chugakusei already? I read a review about it and I'm sure I read "boring" word in it o__O so I still don't know whether I'll watch it or not..

it's been 2 years ago since my beloved teppei released his single err.. I forgot the title o___O I'm sorry teppei!! D: but, but I swear I remember the melody and the lyrics!!
...anyway, teppei's gonna release his new single soon title "Kimi Dake" (only you)

and here's both the cover for the RE (left) and LE (right)




( now click here if you want to scream with me )

more about new single release.. SMILY SPIKY (featuring Miyano Mamoru and Takagi Shun) will sing the theme song of Skip Beat's PS2 game :D
since it's SMILY SPIKY I'm 100% it'll be a funny and crack song xD looking forward to it ^_^

after an unexpected hiatus (due to internet technical problem and blame Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness xD) I bring you teppei's 3rd photobook ^^
here comes the new teppei with various concepts: innocent, cute, cool, hot and sexy! xD I think this is the best photobook so far, and I really love the cute themes.

I received an envelope containing magazine clippings from me24 yesterday. with permission from her, I put some of the scans here. decided not to put KAT-TUN & Arashi scans 'cause I'm sure they've been posted somewhere else ^^

Koike Teppei


his smile! irresistible!

Seto Koji

his skin looks tanned when he turns into Hiro =3

Miura Shohei

I love him as Nozomu!! xD

Irie Jingi

yaaay I didn't realize this page before, too busy drooling over Miura Shohei's pages xD

I just realized when I cropped the scans.. I got dirt on my scanner!! forgive me T__T I have assignments for tomorrow so I can't re-scan them again. thanks again, yana! ^^

I just checked CDJapan 2009 calendar section and found this:

MIURA SHOHEI 2009 CALENDAR!!! *_*

I have to admit I like the shohei's cover better than teppei's but.. I've been wanting to buy teppei's calendar since last year!! T___T

OOhh... which one should I choose??

shohei
teppei
shohei

and I checked teppei's Aozora Sanpo CDJapan link.. it was "out of print" alread *_* afsajfdasdasdsadasdsa I REGRET I DIDN'T PRE-ORDER IT BEFORE!!
I have to buy it at HMV (but the shipping cost is expensive!) or Yesasia ($30 including shipping cost but I'll have to wait for 2 weeks and pick it up at the post office nearby)

I hope CDJapan will re-stock T___T

it's the title of Koike Teppei's 3rd photobook. yes, it's a PHOTOBOOK!!! another one! kyaaaaaaaaaa xD *screams* *jumps*

I already have 1st and 2nd photobook and both are awesome! I like the 1st one better, it has better concept. and I'm definitely buying this one T___T too cute to ignore the 3rd photobook!! xD



release date: 2008.09.27

some places to buy it:
HMV 2100 yen
Yesasia $30.49 (free world-wide shipping)

CDJapan 2000 yen
I wonder what is this. if you look at this item, it has the same name "Aozora Sanpo - Photo Booklet" but if you look at the detailed information, you'll find that this item has different release date and publisher company from the one from HMV/Yesasia. and the catalogue number too, and slightly different price compared to HMV. I should ask the CDJapan staff about this.


and another release of teppei.. a 2009 calendar! yes, I've been waiting for this one as well *_* I want it! I want it!



release date: 2008.10.11

buy it at:
HMV 2415 yen
Yesasia $27.74 (free world-wide shipping)
CDJapan 2415 yen

I'm not gonna buy it at yesasia.. I'll prefer HMV instead :) pali_mari said not to buy photobook at HMV unless it's in "In Stock" status. and HMV usually has the photobook 1-1 1/2 months after it's released. considering the weight of the photobook, the shipping cost could be more expensive than the photobook itself, 'cause they only ship via EMS.

thanks so much pali_mari for the info about the photobook xD
actually, I wonder if I should save up for YUI's rumored best album... but.. T_T I'd rather buy the photobook + calendar first.. gomen ne, YUI!! >__<

now I'm waiting for Miura Shohei to release his 1st photobook, I'm sure he'll release one *_*

I don't scan much (since I don't buy magazines or stuff) so I just put my old scans here to make it easier to tag and arrange them. no, they're not new stuff.

I don't take them from anywhere and I scanned them myself so if you take anything please don't claim it as your own.

( my scanner's half broken )

I moved my video here so now I have 4 master posts *_* whoa!
most of the videos are WaT related though xD

( please comment if taking ), jpopsuki, gachapin @ clubbox, etc.

please comment if taking

just thought that I'd post what I posted at the communities recently ^^
and since I haven't been updating for a while :p

don't forget to comment if taking ^^
