Happiness ~Koufuku Kangei!~ by Ice Cream Koubou (LuckyChansuProject) / Review by Hikki / GUESS WHO?! Anyway, I have not dropped off the face of the earth. These last few days have been BUSY BUSY. Schoolwork, dubbing lines, and GLEEEEE! But I'm back and committed to writing more reviews. Anyway, it's another one of those days where my computer and internet just seem to be out to make my life a living poop-sack. *eyetwitch* Anyway! Hopefully I can get through this video without my internet cutting off, and without my firefox freezing up.

Personally, I have not heard anything by Lucky Chansu Project, and honestly I didn't know they existed till now. And so that's why I'm so happy to hear what they sound like! Let's get this review heezy fosheezy starteeeed!

Solos in order of hearance:
Nao-chi / Eunmi (cover)
Kate (cover) / Kate

(Ah, I've been reading Aya's past entries, and although I'm guilty of writing 'solos in order of hearance', I really hope their voices are easy to distinguish, because I'm not familiar with ANY of their voices.)

So the song starts off with the chorus, and blending wise it sounds pretty good. I just think the group lines need to be de-amped because I hear a lot of static. First solo is by Nao, and she sounds so cute. She has good pitching and great energy! Then is Eunmi-chan. She sounds adorable as well, but energy-wise, she falls a bit short, however it's still pretty darn good.

At 0:36 is Kate-chan's turn, and she seems to have good pitching too, but she has some sort of monotonous tone going on. I think if she relaxed a bit more, she would sound great! After her is....her again! But she sounds a lot different this time. And even her mic is different. Okay, I'm going with my gut feeling and saying it's a different singer. But if that's true then the order of solos is incorrect.....unless they meant order of solos starting from the first verse....? Okay well, whoever did Momoko's solo and Saki's later solo has a really beautiful voice. I really liked how she elongated the lyrics without it sounding overdone or stretched out.

The duet lines at 1:04 was done really well. Timing wise, it was good, and the pairs blended very well together! Truthfully, I half-expected the mixing to be iffy, but besides the volumes, the mixing was done quite well. Actually, the more you listen, the less obvious the volume is.

I won't individually talk about all the solos, because I really have a big tendency to that, and if I did, this review would be really long. These girls all have wonderful voices, but they seem to be shy and lacking in energy at some parts, so with just a boost of confidence, I'm sure they'll sound fantastic.

A small timing or pronunciation problem at 2:23, but nothing that terrible. Just make sure when you receive lines like that, ask for a redo, so it won't throw off the mixing! Advice aside, I love the voice at 3:30! There seems to be a tinge of attitude at the end, which makes me think: "DAYUUM, BABY BERRYZ GOT ATTITUDE." So yeah, props to whoever sang that line to ghetto-fy baby Berryz. Okay, so it wasn't that gangsta, but seriously, in my head, it is.

Overall, this was a really cute release by Lucky Chansu Project! And they really surprised me! I'll definitely listen out for more of their singles and watch their growth! Everyone let's support this new and growing group
