MM 40th single anniversary shirt

After months of waiting, Ohta finally sent the MM 40th anniversary shirt out. This was a shirt you could only get in Japan through a Japanese TV guide magazine.

Picture time:

German Text


Maybe my German friend can give me a translation of the German text that is on the shirt. He's helped me with translations in the past. I'll see if he is online tomorrow and he can give it to me. I'll put it here when I get it.

Also, HelloStoreUSA set up a twitter account so you can follow their updates for when new items come in, site problems, etc. Follow them on twitter at @HelloStoreUSA

You were wondering about the translation from german.
It says:
40th Single "Romantic Love of Fantasy" on sale 12th August 2009.
The morning girls are... AI TAKAHASHI, RISA NIIGAKI, ERI KAMEI, SAYUMI MICHISHIGE, REINA TANAKA, KOHARU KUSUMI, AIKA MITSUI, JUNJUN, LINLIN. Not a group that hangs around.

It refers to "Nanchatte Renai", names all the girls and comments that they are a very active group.
I hope this helps (^v^)

Thank you! I did get my German friend to try it the other day and he said that the wording was all weird.

Are you a Morning Musume fan? If so, how long have you been a fan?

I'm a general H!P fan! (I love all of them) I found out about Bouno! summer 2008-ish and have followed them since.
When you discover one group... you have to find out about the others too... so that's what happenes!

Wow a german Text of a MoMosu Shirt....Who say Tsunku that this is a correct german sentence?? First "Mädchen" you must write with a big M not a small M and second the correct sentence is "Die Mädchen des Morgens sind" in english "The morning girls are" And the last sentence "Keine Untätige Gruppe" wow really german. No German say this.... but it´s ok german is hard to learn, and I´m very surprise because Morning Musume and German..... Love this tshirt and want it..... Where are you have the shirt???

@Natalie, It's like that with English worded shirts in Japan, it isn't proper English, so I guess it's the same with this shirt.

Unfortunately you cannot get this shirt anymore, it was only available for order in Summer 2009. I ordered it through a Japanese eBay seller who was able to get it for me.
