Post and talk about amazing, cringy, or average dance covers, groups, and soloists of the Odottemita world.
Here is some cringe straight from.. the cringe thread:

Hopefully they didn't start a "net idol" group like Hoshi though.
>>8834296
Hoshi original intention for the "net idol" group was for it to be an official AKB48 sister group here in the states (It was NYC48 before she changed it to AME48). She said she would send daily messages to AKS asking if they can make a sister group here in the states and she be the group manager like Takamina since it was her original idea.
>>8834721
A group of people told her off about AKB not working here in the states. For awhile she wouldn't listen because "I'm gonna try my best everyone is hater I'm gonna make the first AKB sister group here in the states!! :DDDDDDD" but ended up getting told off by one more person which ended in her having an "net idol" group now.
Their covers on their facebook page are hilarious and low quality so it gives me something to laugh at.
What are some ways you gulls learn dances and what dances are you currently learning?
https://youtu.be/11xGVJ7oaCk
I'm currently learning Ai Kotoba. I usually learn my danced by watching the video 5-7 timed a day doing hand and feet movements while sitting. Then, when I feel like I've memorized s good majoirty, I start dancing with the music only and fix misteaks from there. Sounds like an awkward process but it works for me.
>>8835313
I'm currently learning drop pop candy. I usually download the video and put it into windows media player, cut the video into 10-15 second fragments and practice the fragment 5 times in a row (first two half speed, third 75% speed, fourth 85%, fifth normal). Rinse and repeat until I memorize and move fluidly.
One of my friends recently approached me about learning dancing. We're starting out with some simple songs and she wants to learn just for fun, but she doesn't seem to realize how taxing dancing can be? I understand it's just for fun but even then memorizing a dance to a song isn't easy.
Currently she wants to practice once a week for only half an hour, but she's a pretty slow learner and she wants to finish learning songs within a month. How should I try to get her to practice more?
>>8835313
I always just google the mirrored version and basically practice the movements in the mirror until I get it. Its really tiring but somehow that's the only way I can learn it. I'll try the sitting down technique later to see if that works.
This is one I'm posting is actually a Chinese dance called "little apple". It is my favorite dance to do because it's less serious and more funny looking lol. These girls are cute.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh0M-2OxvLA
>>8835413
Personally, if she herself has set goals of learning a dance within a month, you should tell her that it's gonna require more practice time. You can't magically learn a dance without the proper amount of practice.
However, since she does have a set goal of learning a dance within a month with a once a week thirty minute practice time, try learning short versions of songs or cut up songs to make them short. Idol songs are defiently perfect for this type of siutation.
Good luck and I hope you guys have fun! I'm super jelly you have a friend that's interested in dancing!
>>8835313
I do a rule of threes and it works for me
Find a mirrored version of the dance and download it, slow it down 50% and start working through the dance in 30 second increments
>3 times slow
>3 times fast
Until I can hit the moves in the first 30 seconds, then increase to a minute, a minute 30 etc
Then
>3 times fast
>3 times without video
The best way I've found is to restart once I mess up, you memorize the dance quicker, but it can also make the ending weak.
I learn and memorize a dance once every two weeks
>>8834721
She wants to start a "idol variety show" and talk to and play games with both real idols and net idols as well. Kek
>>8835313
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFtcXYa18T4
this is what i'm currently working on. i just do it over and over honestly.
>>8835579
I hope more people tell her off. She is really delusional about the idol industry thinking it's gonna come to her and that it will work in the states. People could genualy be telling her facts about how this won't work and she takes it as hate or they just don't believe.
Not only that, if she REALLY wanted to make it in the idol industry with the way she is now, managers would just bring her to auditions just to have a good laugh.
>>8835439
I'm teaching her Lucky Star right now since it's the easiest song I could think of. I think she underestimated how hard dancing was, but now that she's started she's getting it a bit more.
Thank you for the advice! I'll look up more short songs with simple steps. And as for friends interested in dancing, maybe you can show them and some might be interested? If they like anime/manga, teaching them the dance to op/end might be a good hook!
Posting classics.

mfw when I saw the 2nd video. I'm gonna have nightmares tonight.
I feel like a nostalgic cringe fuck whenever I hear Love&Joy cause I still remember the whole dance when I learned it back in my weeb days.
>>8835625
Your welcome and I'll try that with my friends as well!
Also, it would be cool to get a list of simple short dances going for beginners. Anyone have any recommendations?
>>8836156
Basic, short dances recommendations:
https://youtu.be/8ueXofoGkqY https://youtu.be/SXdA2YPrxI8 https://youtu.be/_UHPGBV8tKw https://youtu.be/iVos2m6GRrU
Why does she never improve? She's had so many failed net idol groups and can't even dance or sing herself. God don't even mention her singing covers...
https://youtu.be/fxxziukK65U
>>8836725
Isn't she trying out for AGT? What failed groups was she in?
Requesting duo dances!
There's a competition coming up at a small con and I want to join with a friend. Preferably something with interaction and not too easy.
>>8837549
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS17tr2vuaM&
>>8835652
Why nightmares? I thought she did rather well
>>8837613
Not that anon, but maybe because of the editing? Those dancers that were edited in are kind of creepy.
What exercises to you recommend to help improve dance ability? I'm vey interested in stretching exercises in particular.
Some quality Kevito dance covers.

>>8835313
I'm learning Rin & Len Space Bandits at the moment. It's completely out of my comfort zone style wise, but I'm really working hard at it as it's one of my favourites. Plus, if I don't push my boundaries, how am I ever going to improve?
>>8837549
Have a playlist! (It's in alphabetical order)
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7IgwZ1Vlc9Vg4b_8_X3j84p72I5s6m_P
I created this for my dance group (using their dance suggestions as well as my own) so I could put them all into a spreadsheet to help work out which dances people want to do making it's easier to organise setlists for performances and decide what to film for our Youtube. It's a lot of work but it's helped making organising the group 100% easier!
I've also got playlists for trios, quartets, quintets, sextets, septets & nontets if people want them. (I got lazier and lazier as it goes on though as it's hard to get more than 5 of us in one place at the same time so the later playlists aren't as full)
>>8837621
It might just be me, but leap squats are helpful for loosening up my legs for quick transitions from jumps into dancing. It's literally just a jump into a squat.
>>8837621
What's helped me the most is balancing exercises. There's plenty online for both dance and yoga that are really helpful-- anything that helps you with alignment and not tilting your foot weirdly when you stand on one leg will majorly help your dancing.
I'm a complete beginner with no talent. How can I have more confidence in my movements? I've noticed a big problem with a lot of these is that the movements are very shaky and unconfident. Is there any way to improve other than straight up practice? Maybe fundamental moves I can do?
>>8843584
Practise practise practise! There are no magic tricks. :( Here are some tips that might help you though!
- Film your progress and analyze it: what can you do better? Which moves aren't quite there? Pay extra attention to those.
- Dance with a mirror!
- Don't try to learn it all at once. Learn for example 30 seconds at a time and with patience so you know the movements by heart.
- Also remember that sleep improves your memory! If you feel like you're struggling a lot, try sleeping over night and things will look better next time you dance!
- Remember to use your muscles! It's suprisingly easy to forget to use your core muscles for example. You could also give a try to dancing the choreography super stiffly/with super exaggerated movements/super energetically and film it. Then watch it and see if you could maybe adopt something to your dance style from those videos!
- If you have time, take dance lessons.
- You also have a secret weapon: facial expressions. If you smile a lot or have otherwise good expressions it makes the dance look a lot better. Even if your moves are unconfident, don't let it show on your face!
I hope these help! Best of luck!!
>>8837621
You really want active stretching/stretching that strengthens you rather than just trying to push into the splits. Lots of leg lifts, leg holds/extensions, leaps, core work and then passive stretching after dancing
>>8843584
Repeating what >>8844379 said about practice and segments.
The key to dancing, or any all-body motion, is muscle memory. Repeat the same actions over and over until they're fluid. Then repeat them in sequence with other movements until that's fluid. It's all about teaching your body to move naturally from one step to the next, and the only way to do that is to do it over and over again.
Isolation is good, too. If you're having trouble getting a particular hand motion down at the same time that you're moving your feet, practice JUST the feet, then do the hands standing in place. Alternate between the two until both are fluid before combining them.
The better you get, the less you'll have to break things apart to learn them, but when you're just getting going, treat it like language lessons. Phrasebooks try to teach you whole sentences, so you rarely get past the basics. A class teaches you the building blocks: conjugation, vocabulary, grammar. Dancing is much the same. You're more likely to learn more if you break it apart into segments, instead of trying to do it all at once.
>>8835413
I learned this dance with a friend of mine. It was really fun I think we spent 2 weeks learning it and 2 weeks perfecting it. I would suggest inviting her over and suggest like oh I figured out a way to do this easier or just acting excited about it. I think it really depends on what kind of friend you have anon
>>8838880
yo, I would love a link to the 3, 4, and 5 person dance playlists, bless you for having these

>>8852951
Playlist anon here. I have a solo playlist too but it's still a WIP and needs organising (There are some doubles in there I need to weed out)
I don't mind linking that and you can form your own of dances you'd like to do from that? There's a range of difficulties and styles in there.
I'm in love with this and with the girl

Hey gulls!
Putting together a set list for a super small local con where I was asked to do a half an hour set list of dancing, I was wondering if you guys had any good recs for weeby dances. (Anime/popular band based as it's very small so I doubt there's room for niche picks.)
So far I have RIVER, Heavy rotation and Love and Joy.
Anyone have any good suggestions of well known songs that have good dances that can be done solo? I was thinking a love live song but I don't know what can easily be done solo.
The songs' difficulty isn't an issue I'll need some easy songs for a breather and harder songs as I like a challenge.
(Though I should note, nothing much harder than RIVER would be appreciated.)
>>8854364
>solo
>30 min
>nothing much harder than RIVER
oh boy.. this is going to be a hot mess
>>8854374
Probably, but it's at somewhere with 50 attendees, and I may end up getting some help with it.
Like, I'm just asking for help with some song choices? I know it's probably going to be a mess,
and the reason I'm not asking for harder than RIVER is because I think I can just survive 6 RIVERS back to back so nothing harder.
I don't care if you think it's a mess or not as it won't be recorded and it's just with friends I was just looking for some advice on songs that might go well and are popular.
>>8854364
As for Love Live songs, Nico Puri is pretty easy to dance.
>>8854364
Seconding Nico puri. Depending on your speed you can learn it anywhere from a few days to three weeks.
http://youtu.be/bF7nJSD_y8s
>>8857479
I was just about to post this, anon. They either never improve or get worse. Disbanding when?
Sadly i'm currently living in a shared house with floorboards that creak at the slightest movement, so my dancing time is restricted to when my downstairs housemate is out! I don't want to be too annoying!
Do you gulls learn just for fun or with the intention of performing?
Do you have any history of dancing (like lessons or anything)?
I think this style of dance would be quite fun for kids to learn, like at gyms where they do childrens dance classes that are more for fun and exercise than taken seriously or for competition (like ballet, tap etc)
>>8835428
The second half of that video is gold.
>>8858341
I'm personally alittle bit of both. I love to do this for fun and exercise but I do get opportunities to perform a setlist every now and then either with friends or by myself. We're a tight knit odorite community so if one is performing, we all attend in support.
I technically have no prior experience with dancing but, not gonna lie, marching band did help me when it comes to moving to a beat. At least I don't look off-beat when I dance.
>>8858257
Except they have improved. Or at least Beth has.
In my opinion, Renee is still the best member of the group and Rina is still the worst. She needs to put more energy into her performances, and be more confident, with more control over her moves. As at the moment, she just looks like she's flailing about and it isn't pretty to watch. (I know you will be here in this thread so I'll say it. But I had to watch your performance at 1.25 speed because it was too painful to watch. I used to have to do that for Beth too but I didn't need to this time). Beth has shown clear improvements in both the energy of her performances and the preciseness of her moves. She's still got a ways to go but I feel so proud to finally see some improvements. Ophelia is just adorably awkward and cringy in an endearing way but really needs to actually learn her dances, as that seems to be her downfall. Otherwise she could be pretty good with some polishing up.
Without Ellen though, their MCs are god damn awful.
I know it's pathetic, but I really wish I'd done this sort of stuff when I was younger. Sure, I'd cringe really hard about it now if nothing came of it or if I was awful, but it just seems like so much fun.
Now I'm in my 20's and too old to do this stuff.
>>8859109
It's not pathetic, anon! Especially if you admit to it. Everyone has a secret cringy thing they always wanted to do or try out. It's never too late to use odottemita as only exercise. You can have fun, be a weeb, and lose weight!
Follow your heart, anon!
I actually love learning dances, but I always had to do it alone so I stopped and haven't learned any new ones in almost 2 years now.
How do I find other people who like to learn dances to random Japanese songs?
>>8859109
It's not pathetic at all. I actually felt the same but you're never too old to start! I only started a year ago myself and I'm in my 20's. I'm actually finding it's better to do it now, than as a teen, Since I'm more aware of the world and less likely to embarrass both myself and the people around me.
>>8859052
Anon, you're the only one seeing improvement.
But Renee is cute, and is the best a dancing.
>>8859052
I'm not talking about individuals. I'm taking about the group as a whole. Just because one improves, doesn't guarantee the whole group will. Honestly, it just looks even worse if a few are good and then the rest are slacking. Same concept when it comes to group cosplay.
So again, disbanding when?
Not sure if sharing is a good idea, but this is my group being cringy I guess.
We did this performance for a contest so we only had a month to get ready hahaha I hope after practising kore it stops being so cringe worthy
Https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dOSLVyR0OUI
She's 14 give her a break you immature dimwits.
>>8864063
Hi Hoshi.
Nah. Hoshi probably doesn't bother wasting her time here like y'all do. Nice try fucker
Just tryna put the fact that y'all are picking on a child out here until someone figures out how wrong it is lmao yknow? Someone who isn't an idiot?
Platinum Happy dropper a mini-album yesterday. I actually... lowkey like Purappi Oshi.. Anyone else liked or disliked it?
>>8864594
Get a better bra kid and maybe take the advice and stop being such a cringy weeb. Also maybe actually learn a dance before recording?
>>8835537
This is a really great system, I hadn't considered trying the moves at a faster speed, so thanks for sharing!
>>8835652
>whenever I hear Love&Joy cause I still remember the whole dance when I learned it back in my weeb days
I'm so glad I'm not the only one haha did you learn it from when Kozue did it?
>>8837549
Miss Tantei Love is always fun
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggoGVaF_qgc
>>8866413
Link?
For those that want to get better pick up a real dance style like ballet or wacking. It's the only way to get down the fundamentals of dancing.
>>8866793
not the poster but here is the link
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3s19wr_platinum-happy-purappi-oshi_music
I must say this is incredibly mixed.
>>8867022
I really don't know how to feel about this, since while I'm not digging the song and it could be a lot better mixed, I can feel that a lot of work went into it and everyone seems to be enjoying themselves
>>8867035
I personally don't like the song but I'll have to disagree on the mixing job. I think for the amount of girls/how many lines it was really well mixed.
But also I think what takes away from it is just the overwhelming amount of girls in one song probably fighting to keep parts fair.
>>8867043
Yeah, that's fair, plus you can tell a lot of the girls have different mic quality which makes things seem a lot more messy, too.
>>8867057
That's kinda why I lowkey like it. I thought Platinum Happy was gonna be a shit show full of cringe. Now that i look at their mini-album, they seem to be having fun and trying to the best of their ability. I never really feel that from any net idol group.
>>8866793
I actually learned Love&Joy through a mirrored MMD video making it even more cringy!
>>8859336
There's some groups on Facebook where you can talk and post your covers. I'm from Texas and there's an odottemita group for Texas dancers
Currently learning Matchless Warriors. Pray for me gulls, it's a complicated one.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qdGpFq4cxpk
>>8868812
Just take your time and don't rush! You can do it, anon!
>>8867789
Damn she's pretty good why is she even in furi furi the fuck?
>>8867789
Renee needs to get out of Furi Furi. The group isn't going to let her full potential shine, especially when the rest of the members are shit and pulling her down the cringe hole with her.
>>8864063
Yes at 14 she should be making almost 4 different gofundmes for her own idol groups (aren't you suppose to be 18+ and have a bank account to make gofundmes?) and then publicly claim that her NYC48/AME48 and every other imaginary 48 group she came up with will become the first AKB48 sister group in the states.
Hoshi is a joke to the net idol and j-pop community. She can't even keep comitted to one thing or learn a dance before a performance. Hosting a idol cafe at 14 with little to no organization and groups "canceling" aka were never contacted or agreed to attending?
14, 24, 34, I don't fucking care. Most of that shit is unacceptable. Does she even have parents that know she is doing all that?
Bumping to save this thread
Singing is not part of Odottemita.
Take that wannabe idol group stuff else where.
>>8869397
It's not a part of odottemita, but I like it when people combine their odotte/utattemita videos, it makes it feel more personal sometimes rather than just using a vocaloid version, etc
>>8867022
Their accents are fucking terrible.
>>8869429
OP here, I was thinking about letting utattemita be apart of the thread since alot of odottemita covers already use alot of Utattemita covers. Utattemita is already apart of the Odottemita culture, so there's no point in trying to push it out.
I've always thought of doing this, but with all the backlash you can get I don't think I'll be uploading anything anytime soon, if ever. But it's fun nevertheless, so what would be great starting out songs to do? I'd appreciate any advice.
>>8869898
Anon, on /cgl/, you can get backlash for anything. As long as you don't look like OPs video and can take the concrit, then you should be ok! We all know we're weebs in the end, but it's all in good fun.
I recommend dancing to First Kiss. That's as basic as it can get. If you can also take dance lessons, even free community ones, it will help you in the long run if you wish to improve movements.
This group just opened their website
>http://novadropofficial.com/en/home/
>>8871854
Their Japanese is a mess.
I get having hobbies or whatever but I don't understand investing this much in something that's never going to be more than a pastime.
>>8871854
Not that I'm one to talk but Julianne looks about 12 years old, and it's weird that they list dates of birth in Japanese but not in English
This site is for 18 and up right? So why are y'all on here?
>>8871940
>some people are having fun with a small weeb hobby knowing were all cringe fucks
>automadically makes us underage
Sorry you can't have fun, anon.
>>8871854
I saw them dance at katsu and it looked like they weren't having any fun, especially the boy
>>8872086
Is there a video somewhere posted of it? I'm kinda interested

> gofundme dot com backslash supqyk3w
I had high hopes for this group but now it's gonna crash and burn because of this..
How?
>>8873137
Nah it was gonna crash regardless. Their first project had everyone quit so now they're slightly changing the name and begging for money.
That first group was shit. The little kid who made it fucked up a lot.
>>8875378
Shining Royalty was a fairytale-themed net idol group led by a 14 year old boy and some of his friends. They kept postponing their releases due to their recordings sounding like shit and mixers not being able to fix it, stuff like that. Three of the 6 members graduated within 4 months of them being recruited. Royalty disbanded before they even debuted, only 5 months after the group was first formed.
There was likely some drama going on within the group according to their disbandment announcement:
>I came to the conclusion that for everyone's sake, that it'd be best if she left the group... The environment couldn't be one that wasn't fun and inviting and comfortable.
>In the end, we both felt we had done something wrong and that the other had done something we were hurt by.
>Had anyone else been inside the group, you would've seen that the organization was not the only problem.
Shining Academy is led by two former members of Royalty (16 and 18 years old), who are now asking for $1,000 to help launch their new net idol group.
>>8876448
Yeah mainly I think members couldn't stand the 2 that are left. the one
's a real thundercunt if you don't like her weeby ideas.
>>8853907
they're actually really good! the aesthetics are phenomenal as well
so they just added reward tiers to their gofundme. for only $100 you can write their songs for them. wow.
Has anyone tried to cover any dances from Pripara/i Ris? I really want to learn Make It, but there aren't any good mirrors aside from the official dance video.
>>8878396
I learned Make It by downloading the video them mirroring it with a software. You can do the same thing with a few websites online
>>8878071
Are they that desperate? I'm keking how none has donated so far desu
>>8878468
Yes they really are. The leader is super delusional about how far the group will go.
>>8878410
I'll have to do that! Thanks!
Hey let's not be so rude! They could get a dollar! XD Maybe it's delusion, especially if their people are as shit as other groups which they probably are seeing as these wannabes can't even sing properly half the time.
>>8878071 #
It's not even writing it's "helping" which is dumber. Truthfully though writing isn't cheap anyway. At least it's paid.
I discover this yesterday
http://deturl.com/mirror-flip.asp?v=
A web you only need to put the https code of a youtube video after v= to mirror that video. Really usefull with some dances that didn't have mirrored in youtube.
>>8878930
Thanks anon! This is gonna be really helpful now!
>>8878889
actually it's not that they're paying YOU to write, it's you are paying THEM to have a chance to help write their lyrics. that's the $100 reward perk. To help them write lyrics. You donate $100, you do their work for them. Win/win right?
>>8879194
Plus I highly doubt they will even take any of those suggestions into consideration since the like to think everything they come up with is genius and original
Do people really think this chick is a good singer and cute?
>>8879285
Is that margaret?
>>8879314
Her name is Lita or some shit. She is aparrently touring with her "band" in Europe or some shit. Her singing us horrible and she looks like a 40+ year old.
What do u guys think of karmen kawaii
>>8879380
Wait she's not actually 40? Not even trying to be mean, she just looks... older
>>8879554
Who? This reeks of selfpost
>>8879575
Are you sure..? She's always looked 40 to me.
>>8879203
Yeah Angel is a roaring bitch magnet.
>>8879939
Who? Also you seem to harbor some kind of hate towards her/them. What exactly did they do?
>>8880478
None is self posting? I was the anon that made the suggestion that they probably won't take any suggestions into account.
Oh and which member are you?
>since the[y] like to think everything they come up with is genius and original
>Yeah Angel is a roaring bitch
I'm none of them nor would I want to be but that up there sure sounds a lot like someone agreeing with themselves. Is it also possible you made the post about weeby ideas? Those three posts put together could definitely be the same person. Unless of course they were generalized statements.
>>8880498
Again, which member are you?
>>8880499
Again, none of them.
Rofl why would I want to be apart of that shit storm? Im not some wannabe "idol". If I was one of them then which? Because I'm 20 and those two were said to still be teenaged.
>>8878396
I love iRis so much. My dance group and I already did a cover of We Are last year and have Miracle Paradise planned for later this year.
Unfortunately, Avex are a bitch for copyright. So for We Are we had to upload it with the One Piece character version for YouTube and then put the original iRis track on Vimeo and link it in the description.
>>8880498
Sorry love not selfposting. Just worked with her previously in a different pro. Thinks she's God's gift, that one.
Renee announced her graduation from Furi Furi. I'm so glad she is gonna have better opportunities to show her talent without restrictions or getting pulled down.
Https://youtu.be/PuB6DSTSROs
>>8882587
Didn't Ophelia just graduate as well? It's not looking good for FuriFuri
>>8882632
It's weird that all of them are starting to drop out even the managers left apparently
>>8882632
>>8882672
The fall of Furi Furi is upon us. It's only a matter of time
>>8882678
Don't get too excited apparently the other two are still continuing it for some reason
>>8882672
They had a manager? And they were still that bad?
>>8882707
Yep, and this is him. He plays harmonica.
>>8882732
Kek
>>8882703
Its a matter of time before they disband. Once one member leaves, then another leaves, then more end up leaving until they become inactive, try to do auditions for new members, or disband all together. Its the life cycle of a good majority of idol/dance groups. Rarely do you see groups do auditions for new members and continue on successfully.
>>8883320
That's true But man it's kinda sad to see
>>8883781
I'm personally happy to see them disband since they never took the initative to improve as a group and we're pretty cringy during live concerts. There just another weeb group taking the typical life cycle of a Jpop dance group. They will disband before we know it.
My friends and I come from dance backgrounds, and were wanting to get into creating a dance channel for jpop, anime song dances, and a little bit of kpop. What makes a group stick out moreso than others? Also, what would automatically make a group cringe, even with decent dance ability? (I've been looking at the videos here too).
>>8883937
Crappy costumes, shiny wigs. Wannabe wa-lolita dresses. Oh, and lack of emotion in your facial expressions. Have fun with it, and show that you're having fun!
>>8883937
If you want to be sucesful, even tho it might sound harsh, don't let your uggo friends or someone who can't dance join. Uggos ruin the appeal of a group and if one can't dance, then the whole group is going to crash and burn.
Video quality takes a huge role if this is gonna be online based. Everyone should have at least a camera that can go up to 720p and capture fast movements as well.
Finally, fucking practice before you upload or even record. Get opinions from fellow members about how it looks before uploading a cover. If someone looks bad, don't be afraid to tell them.
Good luck, anon!
>>8883937
Look like:
https://youtu.be/q0JhNKhilCw
Don't look like:
https://youtu.be/0R-a-QLUqEM
>>8884222
the first one...oh dear, my ears.....kudos for effort though
shame about the second one, the dancing itself isn't bad. Seen much worse on here. They just need to record it better.
>>8883880
Well it looks like their getting new members already so it doesn't look like we've seen the back of them
>>8882632
Which one was she?
>>8884222
Second one is a much better dance. The choreography of the first one makes me cringe. It's so stiff and heavy handed, and they need to pony together on beat when moving from spot to spot. It is like a bad cheerleader routine.
They're having auditions.
>>8884564
It's only been a day. Since the girls announced lesving they must REALLY care. No wonder those girls left
>>8884648
Or maybe it was all pre planned, they all seemed pretty relaxed at their last show, especially Renee, maybe they had planned the graduation in advance?
I'm just not a believer of thinking everything has to be bad
>>8884378
>>8884408
I think anon is talking about the quality of the video and the members in comparison. The first one obviously shows the members they practiced their dance and have coordinating outfits with good camera quality and average to cute looking girls. The other video you can tell there was barely any coordination or practice that went into it. The video editing of the second one didn't help it out either.
The choice between hsing cover singing and original tracks and the type/which dance don't matter. It's the overally visual apperance given by a dance group, which is the whole point.
>>8884710
Using*
>>8884661
Even pre planned people wait a couple of a day's before announcing new members or weeks even. If it was pre planned they would have known when the members were going to upload and so could arrange it like that. Asking for new members a day after your other members leave is like saying "yeah we know you left and it's sad it's actually happening blah blah we don't really care" I mean a group like that is in no rush
Gulls, I wanna get something off my chest.
We're in such a booming age of odottemita, utattemita, YouTaite, net idols... I loved this stuff when I was 19~21, though my dream of entertaining goes way back before that. I even joined a group that had sponsors behind it and we were told we'd go on to good things, but all it turned out to be was a money sink and a waste of nearly 3 years of my life in which I did next to nothing else for my future. After getting some actual job and life experience, I wanted to try again as a hobby that could -maybe- at least lead to some con appearances, but right when I started to gain even a little bit of traction, I got pregnant and disappeared from everything.
It's too late for me, isn't it? I'm in my mid-20s now and my body is still okay, but not what it used to be when I was 19 and just starting. My YouTube channel and FB page are zombies, just standing with no activity, only shells of what I had started to build. For some reason, I still want to dance and sing, just like I did all those years ago. But I'm a mom now, and have adult priorities I need to take care of. I don't know what to do. I wish I could go back.
>>8884721
Anon, as long as you take priorities, I say go for it! It's hard being an adult, and a mom for sure, while wanting to do odottemita/net idol related things. I personally think as long as your adult and mom priorities are taken first, you don't look cringy, practice, and etc. I think you should try! It will be ok if you upload covers once a month. You could even try just managing a net idol group instead of being a member of one.
Just don't end up like the aidoru mom on youtube who uploads covers when her daughter is in the shot.
Also, I just gotta ask, we're you in Oshii!Project?
>>8884728
>Just don't end up like the aidoru mom on youtube who uploads covers when her daughter is in the shot.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sALKTnSu4eM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=na9VyH3DcPM
Don't be anything like this woman (unemployed, living with her parents, and too busy being a ~kawaii school girl net aidoru~ to try and find a job to provide for her 4 year old daughter)
>>8884728
>>8884965
O-Okay! Maybe I will try again. Right now I kinda don't have a job and do live with family, but I'm in school and do hope to find employment sooner rather than later. I've been through a lot, so sometimes it's kind of hard to be positive, but I think things will turn around before the end of the year. I could not imagine letting my child get to 4 years old with nothing set up for her future, nor letting her lay in the background of my videos in her diaper looking bored and tired, wtf. Also I was very uncomfortable with that upskirt angle camera in the first video with her daughter sitting just feet away on the couch. Wow, wow, wow, hot mess.
Also no, I had friends in Oishii Project, but was never interested in joining. Kinda saw where that whole thing was headed.
>>8885081
You can be unemployed and going to school, just don't put your net idol things before the important priorities. That's what seperates that girl from you. As long as you know that, you will be ok!
>>8884965
Classic
>>8884965
Just when I think I've seen enough cringy stuff in life...
>>8884965
That's actually really sad. How old is she?
>>8835428
there is a kpop group which also did this. not as charming as those both but I like the remastered version.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grw23fHL23g&pxtry=1
>>8884564
>dedicated
Their dancing is so fucking sloppy though
>>8888160
26, maybe 27 years old.
Oh, and she also manages, performs in, and produces songs and videos for her own net idol group:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbgJI8TWqUo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF1OML4qDsA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9sWL6yDJds
A much better use of her time than trying to provide a stable future for her child.
>>8888810
Poor kid. I hope she doesn't turn into a cringe fest like her mother.
>>8888810
holy fuck. i didn't think it could get worse than "chibi march" but jump jump fever dream there is fucking awful.
Do Hello!Project groups still release dance version with their singles? I learned One and Only through a group cover but wanted to see if there was a official dance version
>>8834864
Ok but for all of her "I'm going to start AME48 and become the first U.S. AKB member", is she aware that there's already a girl from the U.S. in the group?
>>8890993
No she wants to be the first US AKB Member to be in a US AKB sister group and basically be the Takamina of said US AKB sister group
>>8890786
Yes, they almost always release dance version as well
>>8891257
Kinda figured. I know they stopped uploading dance versions on their YTs but i havent bought a H!P single in a long while so i wasn't sure. Thanks!
J-Pop Summit Odottemita Dance Contest 2016 information has been posted. Will you be entering? Will we see the same faces again? Will someone different finally win?
>>8891406
dropped link
http://www.j-pop.com/odottemita-dance-contest-2016/
>>8891406
I looked at the 2015 contest but the judges are at the back of the stage? They can only see the backs of the contestants, what the hell.
>>8891406
As much as I love Jyuke, I hope someone else wins this year. She's not as good as she used to be and I've head about her being bitch toward other contestants.
>>8891343
Kinda going off this, but is there a reason why they stopped uploading dance versions to youtube?
>>8893629
idk it happened after tsunku left
>>8888810
I'm gonna need therapy
>>8833757
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNU_qgmUGM0
>>8891408
lol those are the past winners? so mediocre
>>8892130
I know Jyuke personally and have danced with her on many occasions. She gets into a zone and tends to go into her own world. It's not that she's being a "bitch" she's concentrating. She does it with her closest friends as well
>>8895310
Laughing so hard because of Natto's name
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF-jiOKCmKE
>>8895761
What the fucking hell did I just watch. They seriously had the balls to go out there performing like that? Props to them but... eguh...
>>8895971
No they don't even deserve that. What the fuck is wrong with them?
>>8895761
Oh god. I'm embarrassed to live in the same country as them.
The fat guy on the left with the long blue wig is a total creeper btw. He send my friends FB messages asking about fetishes and requesting lewd stuff. I would almost feel sorry for him since he also looks like he's mentally handicapped.
>>8895761
They seriously went out there with, what looks like, zero practice, no matching uniforms/cosplay, and the crowd being obviously uninterested.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmAIz8MPxto
The old leader of Furi Furi joined a different group and they look slightly more tolerable?
>>8896560
The same with that other girl from Furi Furi she's made her own k pop j pop group I believe and their far more talented
>>8896560
How could they fuck up heavy rotation so badly?
The old leader of Furi Furi just needs to loose some weight and take some dance lessons, the rest of the group were pretty decent for their first performance. I mean they're all out of time, do completely different things when they're supposed to be in synchro and just some genuinely terrible song choices, ( Heavy rotation is a song performed w/ mics, you dance with mics. I just ... can't.)
I'd be interested to see how they continue however.
>>8896935
Do you have a link to their group?
>>8896970
Yeah its a little sad they don't have more views but here:
https://youtu.be/1QS5UrhLlr4
>>8896977
Damn, they are pretty damn slick for a first performance.
The one with the straight hair is a lot weaker than the other 2, but they are all very good dancers. I'm literally in love with the one with the garters.
I'm really looking forward to see how they progress, as this looks strong to me imo.
(Though I'm hardly a good judge myself, my only dance experience is west end musicals and stage coach.)
What would you guys say are the most common Odottemita mistakes people make and the best way that people can improve on their dancing?
I want to be good enough so I feel confident to perform yet my performance always seems ... off when I look back over recordings.
>>8897064
Don't be lazy and actually study up on real dance technique. Watching a YouTube video doesn't magically make you a dancer, you need to condition and build your muscles and look in a mirror to understand your movements.
Also if you're fucking up a part, don't keep practicing it with mistakes. It'll become a habit and you will always look bad at that part.
>>8897056
Same im gonna subscribe and keep up to date with them I think they have a facebook im just interested in how they improve in the near future
>>8833699
She
Is she not wearing a bra
Are those her nipples
Her boobs bouncing all willy-nilly while she dances?
>>8897064
If you feel something is off then stop. Go on a journey, not physically of course unless you're up for a road trip. Explore the world of dance both on the internet and in your community. All the different dance styles and dance history/culture, learn it. Surely you live close enough to a recreation center that teaches dance right? Just go, shake hands, introduce yourself and they will pretty much chill with you. If it sucked then just leave and find another place to dance, not like you will see those people again. The important part is taking the first step and keep dancing weekly.
Just go and dance. Eventually you will find your comfort zone and you will keep improving.
>>8896977
>being black
That's not even fair.
Jokes aside only the middle girl with the frilly hair knows how to dance.
>>8891406
I dislike the new "only 1 performance on stage" part. I enjoyed it meeting new people and it felt like a real battle seeing your competition up close and personal. Everyone is very nice in person though but I'm just saying it will lose the community, culture, and competition aspect since many of them do end up as friends.
>>8897242
This was a huge thing. She went and defended herself on a youtube video.
I actually saw her in person doing this.
She claimed to have a sports bra on but it didn't restrict her DD breasts
She had no bra since they are flopping about out of sync. I'm a DD she was at least a low C when I stood next to her. MAYBE high B
>>8897297
Their all capable and did amazingly well for their first performance on stage together. They just need experience now and practice but I think you can tell from furi furi that Renee (I think her name is) can dance the other girl just needs to sharpen her movements. Frilly haired girls is the best out of all of them though
>>8897316
yeah kek if shes a DD then im a feckin ZZ lol
>>8896560
I just wanna know how you can fuck up Heavy Rotation this bad
>>8897242
Definitely not wearing a sports bra but it looks like she's wearing a bikini top which would explain the extreme bounces. You can see the straps leading out of her top going around her neck.
>>8897316
Link to video?
>>8898565
I've been trying to find it, I think it got taken down since the title use to be "wear a bra ty lee" But this girl does go on the videos to defend herself. a lot.
I remember seeing her in the exact same outfit every single day as well, spamming this dance.
I ran one of the gatherings and remember her coming over with her speakers and starting to do the dance on loop till the photographers left to go film her. She did this to a number of gatherings
>>8899017
She sounds like a delusional attention whore. I really don't care how old she is at this point.
What other things can you tell us about when she attended dance gatherings? How did she act towards other dancers? She sounds like someone who refuses to take concrit and I can already imagine the shitfest that would happen if someone did give her concrit.
>>8899252
Not the same anon but whenever someone tries, her response is always some kind of rebuttal about why she's fine the way it is.
>>8899446
She thinks she is #1 idol tier goddess but she can't comb her hair, wear a correct bra, or even actually learn a dance.
Someone please tell this btch off
>>8901991
>tfw I did this as well but I don't tell anyone
I feel like Jyuke would fit right in with /cgl/ kek.
>>8896977
bravo!!they're great
>>8903853
Alot of people do, they just don't make it obvious as fuck like Jyuke
>>8892130
Don't worry /cgl/
I'll win this one for you.

Bumping because I'm bored and want to watch more good groups please. Or laugh at the bad ones, I don't mind.
CandyStar has always been my favorite dance group and I don't know why. They're really cute though.

They still can't dance.
>>8912103
it wouldn't even matter if they could. girls like that who think they're cute are too deluded. they probably look in the mirror and see anime girls, look at their videos and see love live shit.
i almost feel bad for them.
How hard is it to find a group to dance with? I would love to start one, but have no clue where I'd even begin. Post an "Auditions for Odottemita Group" thing on Craigslist?
>>8912126
>Craigslist
I wonder how many rapist will accept your invite.
>>8912150
Just joking, man
>>8912126
Just keep tabs on Facebook groups, especially convention and idol related groups. It also just depends on the area/state you live in. East coast, Michigan, Florida, Texas, and California are prime odorite group locations.
>>8912126
Apparently decently difficult for jPop. I joined a kpop group and its actually really great and there's a lot of experienced dancers mixed in so its nice, but I still want to find a small group of people to do cute vocaloid and Kyary stuff with.
Maybe just post on Facebook and some friend will pipe up with interest?
>>8913412
There's an odottemita group and japanese idol group for Texas, specifically meant for the San Antonio area but is opened to all Texas odorites
>>8912126
where you from? states? uk?
>>8913499
Sweeden.

>>8919398
Her movements are messy and there's a few she misses completely. I'm a dancer though, so maybe I'm a bit too hard on her.
>>8917640
Because they are cute honestly.
Post your main dance style.
>inb4 no dance style or doesn't know a dance style or don't need a dance style
>>8895761
Are they watching a laptop while they dance? They couldn't even memorize it?? Why perform if you haven't even fully learned it yet...
