  • lol

    

  • omg the beginning, they look so not, like, themselves O.o

  • what was she practiceing for.....i wonder

  • lol....... ilove Japanese sense of humor. Not all of it, but that unique flavor is great

  • in 1:09 Isn't that the making of the Elsine CM that Mini Moni was doing with Yukito Nakazawa That is a funny clip though

  • i miss them! i miss old musu uggghhH!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • kago so cute !

  • wow nono should put her hair down more she looks pretty~

  • WOW! i just took a glimps at some of the comments and i dont even wanna look at the rest it's gonna make me sad & angry

  • Wow double standard, Kago gets kicked out & Tsunku kisses Nozomi's ass

  • @MrKingAchilles but what Tsuji did wasn't against the law, while what Kago did sorta was. It shouldn't have been taken as seriously as it did but the only thing we can do is support Kago now, she still releases stuff but she isn't with UFA no more.

  • @22Tsuji22 oh i do support Kago, but what gets me was or still is the Tsunku policy which i'm told is no boyfriends & such, but Tsuji was having sex with her boyfriend behind (close doors) & get's pregnant but is still in the agency, don't get me wrong, i still like Tsuji but Kago did not rob no bank, kill no one & such but i do agree with you in supporting Aibon. You know i may get my years wrong but i still like Aibon & Tsuji, i don't even like when Yaguchi puts them down.

  • Nono is so cute in the beginnning when she speaks behind the cup! And Aibon is just as cute as nowadays :) They have the same hairstyle ♥ ;3 And Aibon always nods her head that same way.

  • u kno what, the more i think about it now..i've been waiting for the day were these two meet up again or at least something along the lines, like on a show together, but i actually can't ever imagine them both in a group again, they are just so different now =( just seems so un realistic don't think it will ever be...

  • totally loved kago's giggle

    both of them are really cute :D

    kago is making a comeback now.. and nono being a great mom of 2 (2nd is comingxD) :D

  • All of these Japanese videos make me wanna watch Japanese tv!8D

    I guess Ill watch it now!

  • I wonder if they are still friends now

  • @HeavenlyKaori014 According to Kago, they occasionally email each other. But they no longer work together and they have completely different circles of friends, so...

  • well that is sad...

  • 0 : 30

    kago really looks like Fukuda Kanon!

  • ive always loved their giggles xD hahaha

    love these 2 ^^

  • I love Kago chans laugh in the end!!!!!!!!!

  • kago chans ? lol

  • i dont know why but tsuji reminds me in this vid of risako from berryz koubou when she was younger :D

  • Ai-chan was tryin 2 speak so formally...

  • i think the reason why they so behave in the camera because they are new in in morning musume... ^_^

  • And they're absolutely scared shitless. Look at Aibon's eyes in the first half, how she swallows hard when talking........now watch her video from New Jersey in November to see how much she's changed......

  • @elepandia ...as it has been stated several times already.

  • @Celedam lol yeah, captain obvious (elepandia)

  • 彼らはすごいですね。

  • 加護ちゃん、りしゃこみたい!

    小さいときはツリ目で、大きくなったらたれ目になる!

  • lol, they changed so much XD

  • They were *younger* in the first clip. It's from when they first joined MM, in early 2000. The second clip is from 2001, after they'd been there for a year.

    That's the point of this video: they started out as normal younger girls and *then* became more uninhibited as they learned to be idols.

  • this was back in 2000 right after they joined the group.. just before their first stage performance with MM

  • i think aibon is cuter than tsuji...but after tsuji got her teeth fixed..she was cute too..

    they really set the morning musume alight when they first joined..they 4th generation was full with characters..

  • basically Aibon got caught smoking and was on hiatus for it. Then she was caught with an older man and was, well, basically kicked out of H!P. As for Tsuji, when she was 19 she got pregnant and got married. that's pretty much it. Tsuji came back for the Elder Club Graduation though,

  • Is it Mari and Mika in the background at 1:11 xD?

  • yeah that's them, that was behind the scenes footage from a CM they did with Nakazawa Yuko..

  • why did kago ai and tjsui get out of w and moring museme

  • wikipedia them and you can read the whole story.. but to make a long story short.. they made some bad choices and got into trouble. it's really too bad.. I miss them as W.

  • @makiebi1 Tsuji just graduated and got married. Kago had the scandal

  • @JakeGordonTV actually Tsuji got pregnant which was a bit of a scandal in it self until she announced the marriage.. which seem to make the scandal aspect of it go away.

  • @makiebi1 well didn't she graduate before she got pregnant?

  • @JakeGordonTV they both graduated the morning musume long before, then they become the group W, but then kago's scandal happend and they were put on "Hold" in the year that happend. Tsuji got pregnant.. which kept them on hold.. then Kago made the same mistakes again. and was kicked out of the company completely. which ended W.

    then about a year later Tsuji along with many other OG MM members graduated the Hello Project. at least I'm pretty sure that is how it happend it was a while ago.

  • @makiebi1 oh I thought it was that they were in Momusu and later H!P made the sub-groups like W. A little after W was disbanded. Then later Kago had her scandal which put her on hiatus then dated that old guy and got fired. After that Tsuji graduated then got pregnant. I don't remember Ai Kago ever graduating. I haven't seen the vid of her graduating on DjWaffles or anywhere

  • @JakeGordonTV No.. W wasn't a Sub-group.. it was the reason Tsuji and Kago Graduated from Morning musume.. they both graduated from Momusu at the same time.. at the end of one of the MM concerts (I think the 2004 summer one) where they announced their start as W. just do a youtube search for Kago ai Graduation it will come up.

  • @makiebi1 Tsuji's pregnancy came about two months AFTER Kago got fired. It was during those two months that UFA started to develop a new career for her, with "Robby & Kerobby" and Gyaruru.

    In fact, she found out she was pregnant only because she missed a Gyaruru event due to morning sickness and had to go to the hospital. She didn't know before that.

  • @Celedam ooh.. well it all happened in the same six months.. so I got confused.. thanks for the info :o)

  • @Celedam So we don't know (how long) Tsuji was having sex while still in the agency, but Kago get's fired hmmmm!!!!!

  • @MrKingAchilles

    Difference is Ai Kago was caught. What the public does not know can't hurt but when their is a major scandal it's better to drop the person and cut all links than to deal with the problems that come with a scandal.

  • @deaconkris I agree what you just said... & to be fair with Tsuji, she did whatever behind (close doors) & i guess Aibon should of done whatever behind (close doors) & not get caught...

  • whoah that is a weird difference but that happend to me too i actually was afraid to be on camera and hate talking AND KNOW IT'S THE ONE THING I CANT STOP DOIN! :P

  • I really question whether that friendship was ever real. I have looked virtually everywhere and have not seen one reference aside from twice (both not suggesting a strong friendship) regarding Ai Kago's friendship with Tsuji. One was the sanma o manma interview and the other was another interview where Ai was asked if she still talked to Nono much and she said "not really"

  • I'm sure what they had was friendship of convenience, when they were little they were the only "kids" in the group and so they bonded.. but as they continued to work together.. I think it just became a work relationship. like I doubt they would hang out with each other on their off time. but with their subsequent "incidents" it's the japanese way to just disassociate with "work friends" that have made them self's look bad.and of course Tsuji is still with HP so she's probably not allowed to.

  • Also, after the Fifth Generation joined, Tsuji moved towards Ogawa and Kago moved towards Konno.

  • well i tought the all time they were like best friendsand all, they're so cute together, hard to believe they don't see each other much now...

  • don't get me wrong, i luv aibon, but she did kind of mess it up for nono. I actually believe that their friendship was real though.

  • Yea me too, but wut u mean she messed up?

  • well without aibon, there was no W and nono had nothing to do with the scandal, but she lost a lot because of it. W really made nono more popular.

  • Tsuji was getting married and pregnant at the time, if I remember correctly, so I'm pretty sure she was getting to the point she might have been wanting to settle down.

  • That was later on, when she was put in Gyaruru.

  • Yeah that was after Kago had been gone and came back and then they disbanded.

    Nozomi has her own blog! It's really funny and she updates it everyday! You guys should read it! =]

  • @SupaKawaiiKittyChan It only was a scandal because people made it a scandal. Thats what I think...

  • lol... so that is how normally they sound when not acting cute..

  • love it how at 1:08 it goes into a kinda horror text (which says "but now...") then Tsuji & Kago goof off X3

  • OMG they are soo cute when they just joined MM

  • What the heck?! It looks like they're actually OLDER in the beginning of the clip... guess it's makeup and camera angle.

  • No, they simply didn't know yet that they were supposed to ham it up for the cameras.

  • Well the lack of hamming up is obvious, but I'm referring to their look which they obviously "kid-ified" when their personalities were established in H!P....

  • That was their job. That's what it means to be an idol.

  • gosh i love them xD

  • So which one is in the green and which is in the blue?

  • The one in green is Nozomi Tsuji.

    The one in blue is Ai Kago.

    ^-^

  • Thanks, that is what I thought. For once, I actually think Ai Kago looks far more attractive than Nozomi Tsuji. And I am a huge fan of Tsuji.

  • No problem~ I only know my Nono and Aibon! :3 ^-^ I love both of them~ But, I'm more of an Ai fan~

  • how can you pick! Its far too hard

    i loves them both so much!

    something about their personalities just seems to shine!

    my heroes forever and ever! =D

  • I love when Kago pushes the camera away and says "next" at 0:26 and then she goes after Tsuji when she walks away. And it's so cute when they make faces at the camera! ^_^

  • Actually Tsuji pushes the camera away and says "next" and then Tsuji goes after Kago when she walks away xD you got this mixed up xD

  • You need to reasearch Ai Kago then Tsuji Nozomi i know who's who -.-0

  • Uh, no. i don't I'm like an expert on them. I know who's who. yr the one who doesn't. stop talking like yr the one right and everyone else is wrong. Its 2-1. Who do think is right? you shud search them. don't tell me what I need to do. Listen to yr own advice.

  • wait- you are right. when I first watched this video i wasn't really paying attention. but anyway, I do know whos who.

  • lolz sorry i was grumpy that day xD lolz glad you noticed which was which xD byez

  • no, i'm sorry. i was kind of grumpy too! you were right! sorry.

  • Kago-chan is soooo cute~

  • thjey look older in the first clip...cuz sum1 said in mini moni (secdond clip) they were 12 and 13, but they look 14 and 15 in the first one....

  • The "after" clip is taken from when Kago and Tsuji were in Mini Moni - you can tell because Mika is in the background ... The vibe in Mini Moni was looser, and they acted more playful, which explains their reaction to the camera ... It is not some "scary transformation" as the voice over may suggest, just 2 young and talented performers having fun ...

  • why would that be scary? It's cool that they got used to it.

  • hahaha it just seems like they got younger instead of older

  • oahhhhh pretty

  • I like them with the hair down :3! They look so cute.

    And... Kago at 00:31 is like... so uncomfortable xDDDDDDD

  • Kago is the one in blue.

  • oh ok thanx 4 that, spammer177!!!

  • You can usually tell because Kago is paler than Tsuji.  Kago also has a rounder face. And Tsuji has funny teeth. =D

  • sorry, i didint know the names thats y i was askoing which one is which...

  • I can normally tell by the eyes. Kago has narrower eyes than Tsuji. XD

  • Lol it look like they gotten use to the camera xD

  • before = innocent and VERY mature!

    after = childish and immature??!

    ohoho~~

  • They're not being immature, they're just mugging for the camera. Their popularity as idols depended on it, but they didn't know it yet in the first clip.

  • it sucks that Kago was kicked out...

  • @bluA7 why was she kicked out?

  • @multiplymelollipop1 she was caught smoking underage, and datin REALLY old guys....like 37 year olds

  • @darkacex99 37isnt that old, I'm soon 30 ^^

  • @darkacex99 lol well its old compared to how old she was when she was seein him

    no offense to ya bro ^o^

  • *gg* Tsuji-san looks strange without her high-hairs ^^

  • do they have tennis balls in their hair lol

  • XD nono looks like my little sis at the end. its so kawaii lol

  • jaja xD their voices changed a looot!

    :0 but it like werid cause when they were little they talk more grown up xDU

  • hontouni really cute kawaii

  • so cuuutee

  • It's so annoying when people think they look similar. o_o

    They look so very different, even after they adapted.

  • It so annoying when people dump on others for not being as obsessive as themselves...

    They look different to you because you're a fan. You know what to look for. But to a complete newbie, they DO look similar. Stop whinging about it and deal with it.

  • I think you need to calm down. ^^

  • I think you need to learn how to recognize sarcasm.

  • I think you do too. =P

  • Well it's true they don't look anything alike, Celedam.

    Get over it.

  • Congratulations, that's the stupidest reply I've received this week.

  • Right sure I'm stupid haha xD

  • I know what your saying, but yea to a complete newbie it would be hard. When I was just starting to become a fan it was hard for me to tell them apart. Mainly because they act very similar. But now its easy.

  • It's good to hear kago with a normal voice for once.

  • they are so cute....cutest ever bro....ccute kute dang...they are cute...lol

  • lolol, yea. the 1st clip they were like "i'll do my best" and on the second clip they r just playin around lolz they r so cute xD

  • Are they twins?

    ~Rin-chan~

  • nope.

  • They look much older and act more maturely in the before clip(first clip). Or have I got it the wrong way round?

  • I very like Tsuji.

  • It's always hard to tell though. I mean because they did poppy kids songs in Mini Moni, even thought they were like 17 and 18.

  • they were only 12 and 13 in mini moni

  • I liked their shy image better... they turned into like circus freaks. When I first saw them, I thought they were sisters or lesbians... haha. Tsuji got married (had a baby?) and Kago started smoking and went out with some old man. I knew they were just playing innocent all along.

  • They weren't "playing innocent." They simply grew up. Everyone does it, eventually.

  • I knew they looked alike, but i could always tell them apart. possibly by their personalities, but i just always knew. i didnt know others had trouble.

  • Chill out. Nono and Aibon were deliberately marketed as pseudo-twins for FIVE YEARS. Even Japanese talkshow hosts sometimes had to ask which was which. As such, it's pretty silly to get mad at someone who is neither Japanese nor familiar with MM for making that mistake.

  • ur right, to bad for some ignorants =(

    i hope MM become more known in the world

  • good

  • they look like twins!..LOL..

    the first time i discovered MM,i thought kago ai and Nozomi Tsuji were twins even though at that time i already their family names was different...LOL

  • i like their real voices better than their high pitched squeaky ones LOL. if hello project had a better vocal range their songs would be better

  • lol, retarded

  • cute lol

  • Of course they are playing a "part". Actors, singers, comediens etc the world over do the same thing. They are entertainers. Its not unique to these 2 or J pop or Japan! sheeesh.

  • i like their hair down better..but watever hairstYle they're stiLL CUtE..

  • i think kago looks better with her hair down

  • agriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii333333333333­333333333333333333333333333333­3333eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed

  • OMG.. it's not their transformation that's scary... IT'S THAT VOICE.. omg, she sound like she's seen a ghost and is about to faint or something.. like this was the biggest deal in the world.. O__o;;;;

  • Thats a Big diffenrence Haha

  • Haha check out Tsuji hiding behind that cup. Tsuji before and after is crazier than Kago's. Just watch this Tsuji clip then watch a newly 19 Tsuji clip, she is SO different.

  • Kago's appearance changed a little somehow... and at 17 she changed from the childish, immature kind of personality XD... And you'll see Kago wearing skull and rock tshirts and stuff... then one time she was pretending to play electric guitar XDD

  • And her voice is kind of deep and semi hoarse. While Tsuji was always pretty silly but she's never REALLY been the real girly type even if she wears bows and stuff like that. I wouldn't say she's a complete fake XD But both of them obviously put on a little act in public. They've still got great personalities LOL (Okay I'm done XD The 500 character rule is killing me)

  • J-pop is all about putting on an act and putting out an image, I think. I still love it, and I still love Kago and Nono, but I don't honestly believe that that the girls really are as ditzy and stupid as they're portrayed.

  • its hard to accept, but you are totally right. its just the image given. i bet some of it is real but not that much stupidity

  • I actually think that's how they act normally too,in real life XP Jus toned down a bit XP

  • But we do the same thing in the U.S. Overall, the entertainment industry as a whole is selling a product-whether an artist or a brand.

  • if a lot of what they do is "putting on an act" then their amazing actors..

  • seriously

  • kago looks better then tsuji lol

  • Haha! Great video! They have changed a lot! So has Kamei. She was extremely shy when she first joined, now she's chatty. ^_^

  • It still blows my mind how much Aibon has changed over the years. Everyone else has shown at least some continuity -- their hairstyles may change, but it's the still the same girl throughout. Aibon, on the other hand... if you put Aibon age 12 next to Aibon age 17, I think many people would have a hard time telling they're the same person.

  • yea thats so true. kago is so different now.

    and i didnt notice before

    but tsuji and kago had lower pitched voices back then

    well... i guess its cuz they were shy

  • Even today, their normal voices are fairly low. Check out some of the "making of" videos for their W singles. It's only when they get into character -- when they're "on" for the camera / audience / studio mic -- that their voices get cutesy and high-pitched.

    In fact, the real Tsuji seems to have become a bit of a punk in the last year or so. If you watch enough 'Hello! Morning' and 'Curious Nono', you see glimpses of it. The poofball hairdoos and other silliness are a complete scam. ^_^

  • HAHA! Oh man,the diffenrence of before and after!Funny kids.
