I'm back and so is Midtown TV! This episode is 54 minutes long (no typo) and features magibon as a studio-guest about 40 minutes into the show.
This week, besides the main show, we have Morning Musume in Nama Yaguchi news. Before they go on to their Resonant Blue promotion, Niigaki Risa and Kamei Eri yells for Yaguchi ;) And for the record: Release April 16th.
The show opens up with everyone there, not just Yaguchi and Marumaru Aikora, and with all wearing some sort of semi-formal clothing. Yaguchi even has glasses. And yes, the glasses contain actual glasses, as can be seen by the reflections and she constantly jumps around ;)
Anyway. Formal clothes. What can the occasion be? Yagu-pro production's idol interview! She even "gets" the weird guy as a producer. Who the interviewee is? Various idols.
First out we have Takabe Ai (高部あい). She initially seemed kinda shy and so I thought she was someone impersonating Takahashi Ai, but she actually gets up and tries to do W's Koi no vacance! Pretty fresh! I'll let the reader guess which version I prefer ;)
Yaguchi and the guest have a small step-counting competition. And while Yaguchi doesn't really have the edge here, wearing high heels and all, her performance is worth watching :D
Next up is Katou Sayaka (加藤沙耶香). Expect more of the same: Interview, some showing off and all that. This girl has a fetish for what looks almost like dominoes. Yaguchi doesn't really get it, but agrees that they feel nice. Japanese people are weird :P
What's consistent about these interviews is that the guys are having a blast and that Yaguchi has to ask them, around once a minute, to stop it or quiet down ;)
After a while it's time for a different kind of guest: Magibon made her way to the show, and this is it! Yaguchi wonders if she thinks this will be OK and all that,, which her co-host assures us it will be.
Magibon is however seriously freaked out, says "I love you!" to Yaguchi and totally ignores her co-host :D After settling down a little, Yaguchi comments on magibon being kinda small. Check the screenshots for a side-by-side shot :D
Following this is a rather akward section where the hosts and magibon try to communicate. If I'm feeling stupid for not understanding half the things being said here, imagine being on the show and not getting anything :D
She might just be totally out there unable to pay attention, actually meeting Yaguchi and all, but she needs a translator for a simple question like "Now that you've met Yaguchi, how do you feel?". Her answer also needs a translator, as she answers in English: "Like I'm going to die or something" :P
Also: Yaguchi's co-hosts suggest they form a new group: Yagumagi or Yagubon ;)
There's lots of talk which really doesn't need any translation, since magibon gets translation anyway. But apart from that, magibon tells Yaguchi that if she was to go to America, there would be hordes of fans waiting for her there. And Yaguchi seems genuinely surprised!
So... There's lots of talk, and this time it's pretty easy to grok ;) To top it off Gyao has put up a magibon page. No kidding!
This week I just took screenshots and uploaded as I watched along, so there should be a shitlot. No torrent as of yet though.
Next week's episode will feature Niigaki Risa, Kamei Eri, Koharu Kusumi and Linlin from Morning Musume.
Episode ranked 4 for no special reason :P
Update: Now with torrent.
Update 2: lovemusic was nice enough to hunt down and link us subbed portions of this episode. All on youtube. Part 1 and Part 2 right here :)
