Petit Best (Pucchi Best) 10 DVD

Yossi and Rika are nowhere to be seen here. Of the Elder Club, the only ones represented are Aya, Nacchi and Mari. The CD version has 18 tracks while this has 14. Here's a rundown: S/mileage: "Ama no Jaku" - Cute video with 4 Hello Pro Eggs. Nice dance routine intercut with shots of the girls in school. Very pleasant. Erina Mano: "Otome no Inori" - Okay song. She sits at a piano in an odd pink set and has a number of costume changes. C-ute: "Everyday Zekkochou" - Almost a Dance Shot version, since it's just them dancing on a slick black platform on a high rooftop. Nice song and great dancing as usual. Berryz Kobo: "Rival" - Not nearly as good as the video for "Seishun Bus Guide," which was on the CD. Morning Musume: "Shouganai Yume Oibito" - the Drama version, which has the girls wandering around a college campus on a gray overcast day. Very few dance shots. I would have preferred the Dance Shot version. Aya Matsuura: "Chocolate Damashii" - Aya in a weird costume sitting on a bed surrounded by boxes of chocolate. Dull, dull, dull! Mari Yaguchi: "Seishun Boku" - The song is catchy, but the video isn't much to look at. Still, it's great to see and hear Mari again after all these years. Natsumi Abe: "Screen" - Better than Aya's video, with some interesting sets. And the song is good. Koharu Kusumi: "Happy Happy Sunday" - You either love Koharu's bursts of candy colors and impossible good cheer or you don't. I do. Shugo Chara Egg: "Shugo Shugo!" - 4 of the Eggs, including 3 from S/mileage, in costumes from the anime series, "Shugo Chara." Anime clips are included. Guardians 4: "Omakase Guardian" - Another song from "Shugo Chara," but sung by four different girls (1 from MM, 2 from Berryz, and 1 from C-ute). Also uses anime clips. Which is a GOOD thing. Buono!: "My Boy" - A highlight. The Buono girls (Airi, Momoko, Miyabi) just get more and more awesome. The video is fun to watch as the girls are put in a Mission: Impossible-style break-in plot, with a clever ending. Bonus videos: Morning Musume: "Kimagure Princess" - Another highlight and certainly better than the other MM video included. Lots of dancing intercut with attractive closeups. And I love the costumes. Fast-paced song with a gypsy beat. Mai Satoda and Gouda Kyoudai: "Bye Bye" - The two girls perform in a studio. The DVD allows you to see it from four different angles. Why? And who is Gouda Kyoudai?
