KonichibaProject
"We're just a big group of girls singing songs and having a good time~"

Lead by Amaya, Konichiba has been partaking in the dubbing community since January 27th, 2009. They have released over 20 dubs, from among their 3 groups; Tokyo Musume, Straeberrie, and Suki Love. They also have a shuffle unit (Chiba SHUFFLES) that covers "Misc Hello Project subgroups and other non H!P songs."

KP has gone through 5 member graduations, and currently has two generations and no eggs. Suki Love is the groups C-ute dubbing unit. So far, they have released four dubs, their latest being Soku Dakishimete. Their cast is;

Airi Suzuki - StellaUta
Maimi Yajima - JapanGaruuz
Megumi Murakami - airisuzuki24
Chisato Okai - 1Aixx (covered by airisuzuki24)
Saki Nakajima - Amaya
Mai Hagiwara - ILA1080
Kanna Arihara - ILA1080
Erika Umeda - 1Aixx





[*] This is a really good dub! I do agree with leader comments that energy and pitch need a little work in some cases. But, the blending is good and the group parts were fabulous; loved the chorus! Overall, I really enjoyed this!

[*] C-ute's lame uneven line division sucks (;w;) Only Maimi, Airi and Megumi get actual solos. So I am limited on hearing solos from everyone, but as I have said before; the whole group plays a part in the song, and it wouldn't be the same without even one of them. So enjoy the chorus, cause it's all of the wonderful cast singing together!!

[*] JapanGaruuz and StellaUta both did fabulously on their semi-lead parts as Airi and Maimi! I liked Stella at 1:14 on "nando mo kikareru watashi". And I liked JapanGaruuz at 2:32 on her "aa sugoi yo."

[*] There were different duet pairs, most of them stayed the same, but a few interchanged (or so projecthello.com tells me). All of them sounded great! With the exception of a few, where one of the two girls was harder to hear. A soft cute voice, but almost too soft. Could have used more umph! Everyone's voice went well with each other's, which I bet is cool in a dubbing group. Yay for blending!

[*] I must say that airisuzuki24 as Megumi was my favorite. She did an awesome job at leading this single! Great energy that stays throughout the song; clear well delivered solos; and a very lovely voice. I strongly suggest checking out her YouTube page, and looking into other dubbing groups she is in (I know I am going to).

[*] LOL, at first I didn't realize that some girls were dubbing more than one person. All of the six girls that covered this song did a spectacular job! Props, props~ Go check out their Youtube !!
