Yes yes yes! I will be making a fansite for Base Ball Bear. I don't see any english ones so I totally call dibs. I've made the layout and everything. Please look forward to seeing it. I won't give the link yet because it's so incomplete. I can't make all the codes and links yet because I have things to study for, but in a frenzy tonight, I made several layouts in one sitting. =_=''
So if you want lots of BBB information and downloads, go to that site once I put it up. Please! :D
If I can do this, it'll probably be up and online by May 20th.

Base Ball Bear - 抱きしめたい PV
Long post with lots of screencaps and a download. Beware, dial-up. :)
My internet has been kind of weird for the past few days (but that doesn't mean I haven't been using my computer). I've been watching ごくせん2, でました！パフパフガールズ, and some Avatar a friend lent to me. I swore I wouldn't watch anything, but I gave in.
But alas! I finally got Firefox working and I saw somebody had uploaded Base Ball Bear's new PV on jpopsuki! Credits to doobie for uploading :) If I can, I'll upload all the BaseBallBear PVs I have. I'll probably do a big PV post during spring break.
And just a note, I'll be changing whatever I've uploaded from MediaFire to DivShare, because it seems like this whole week MediaFire has been going under a lot of upgrades and it's pissing me off. Now I'm planning to perhaps use DivShare as a mirror. MediaFire is faster to upload to and at the moment, they aren't updating. I hope they stop doing all these random updates at the times I want to download/upload. If anyone can find a better site to upload to that's free and doesn't have limits like YouSendIt, SendSpace, or Megaupload, please tell me. The only ones I know about are MediaFire and DivShare (and something-Share...). Does Gigasize have no time limit too? I wonder.
Download it now! Click either the picture or the link below. No mirror yet.
Base Ball Bear - 抱きしめたい PV
(Dakishimeshitai - I want to hold you)
Comments (with screencaps):
The song itself has a nice opening, and it's a bit like Electric Summer with the repitition of "Dakishimetai~". But the muted vocals makes it so cool. Waah. I'm a bit biased with this song because my love for BBB is similar to my undying love to Ellegarden. I cannot hate them at all....<3
小出祐介（こいでゆうすけ) - Koide Yusuke, the vocalist and guitarist. Expect lots of pictures of him, he's my favorite. His hairstyle has changed since the STAND BY ME PV, because now it's turning into that pretty-boy hairstyle. :D I liked his old hairstyle too. It was a bit old-fashioned but he looks good in anything.
関根史織（せきねしおり) - Sekine Shiori, the only girl in the band. She's the bassist and she also does some background vocals. And yeah....She was in an indie movie where BBB contributed a song to - Linda Linda Linda; I haven't watched the whole thing yet because the file I downloaded had subtitles that wouldn't work. I like her, and she seems to have a sort of deep voice when she's talking normally but a high voice when she sings.
堀之内大介（ほりのうちだいすけ) - Horinouchi Daisuke, the drummer. He's insane and hyper. (It doesn't seem like it but if you watch a couple of clips of them candidly he does all the talking.) I want the shirt he's wearing right here because it says random stuff like WHOOSSHH and CHARRRGE XD
湯浅将平（ゆあさしょうへい) - Yuasa Shouhei, the other guitarist. He used to have the UGLIEST HAIR, because he had it really long and it didn't suit him at all. Now he cut it short and he looks much better. There was a small variety show the band had and on it, a girl had to choose between Horinouchi and Yuasa for a date. She chose Yuasa because he's "quiet and thoughtful". (Horinouchi responded to this by jumping up and down and yelling, "Thoughtful?! He didn't even do anything at all!) He really is quiet but he always does a funky psycho dance during guitar solos in the PVs. (This is not the best screenshot, but the images of the band at the beginning of the PV were played really quickly.)
And sadly, he does not do a funky dance in this PV. Darn.
Worst screenshot ever taken, but oh well. Koide-san in a running pose away from a mannequin. Ahh, White Lady! (A reference to a Filipino myth.) I want a Koide mannequin. :) He looks freaked out in the part.
One of many Koide screencaps I will continue to put up. :D I like the use of colors behind each band members, yup yup. the one thing I didn't like about the PV was the little jerky movements when showing the whole band. I mean, it matched the music, but it made it hard to take screencaps.
And Horinouchi's shirt is displayed! The third line says ROARRRR :D I want it even more!
Another pose with the mannequin lady. Lucky mannequin. T_T
"I'm hot, and I know it." *wink*
(Okay, he wasn't saying that. But when Koide sings, he looks like he's winking. I don't know how to describe it. He does this when the vocals are especially strong.)
Over the course of the PV, I began to feel jealous of the mannequins. >_>
AHH! I want to be that mannequin, right now! *dies*
<<*makes a Nodame smoochy face when I see this image* Did I mention I want to be that mannequin RIGHT NOW? I noticed that Koide is always wearing ties. He wears formal clothes a lot but doesn't look very formal. I suppose he a bit classy like that, right? He's hot. :) Because guys always look good in suits. Even Wilson Li said so. The middle part is filled with images of Koide singing alone and him with the mannequin that were cross-cut. Wahhh >_< (Wow, vocab from my Film as Lit class came in handy for once.)
I'm starting to get tired of uploading the screencaps. I took a lot, you know. BSPlayer is just asking to be abused, making it so easy to take screencaps. Anyway, I just want to say that the ending of the song is a bit abrupt. Not as bad as the sudden ending of 高架線(Koukasen) for Ellegarden, but still. They pretty much just close it off with a (very good) little guitar bit and walk off the set.
These are my favorite kind of endings, where they show other people filming the PV (like in Space Sonic by Ellegarden, where all the film crew were wearing pink dresses just like the band, and こんなに近くで/Konna ni Chikaku De by Crystal Kay, where Crystal herself was showing as if she was filming her own PV) because it makes it interesting. There should have been more of a story behind the PV besides naked mannequins and such. Story PVs are superior, but not exactly to any Ellegarden or BBB work.

(begin little rant)
I'm 80% positive that I'm going to Japan during the summer, wooot!
I also got a job as a TA for a summer program, but I haven't told them that I will be in Japan during the program for about a week and a half.
I hope I can see at least one of the bands I like over there...gotta go stalk their official websites now instead of doing PreCal... I would love to see either Base Ball Bear or Ellegarden. It's probably impossible for me to see Ellegarden because they're on tour and sold out. くそ。
Prom is coming up. I want to ask him.
Okay, that's it!

Next Update: First week of April (Spring break for me)
