Welcome to All About Fukuyama Masaharu, part lyrics blog, part fan site, 100% about Masha. It started out as a blog around April 2009 to repost all English lyrics, but after a while I got a bit ambitious and posting many other things I can gather from the net, some pictures, some articles, mostly news in English from the perspective of a fan although you can find some translated articles in here. I do not pretend to say I take credit for the text in here; frankly I just search, gather, summarise, reword and repost. I will always include the name of the fan who said whatever I posted to the best of my ability but as you can see, my sources are mostly from 2 main fan forums of Masha that is not in Japan. My problem is I can't read Japanese or Chinese, but my persistence sometimes does pay off when I just keep looking. You will also find some pictures in here, but all of the pictures you don't see in here are in Facebook, just look for All Abt Masha. I am quite active in that Facebook page, and it is also a place to find information! My main purpose for this blog is for myself; to gather all lyrics in English under one roof. But I am very sure foreign fans can also benefit from the contents in this blog, and without the many wonderful foreign Masha fans who translate, discuss and share whether privately or publicly, this blog will never be what it is today. I am still hoping to find more English lyrics somewhere, although from the looks of it, I will say things have slowed down a bit. Anyway, have a look. If you have any snippet about Masha to share with me, or pictures or lyrics, anything at all, please do not hesitate to do so. Do join in the discussion by using Post A Comment. Do consider sending me your submission of reviews. And for new Masha fans, if you like, do join my Contact List. Thanks for dropping by!
I was watching this fanmade music video of Masha's Hotaru-piano version and found the pictures in it compelling. But first the original video which I have blogged about here...
Some of the pictures you must have seen before, but in much smaller version. One I remember is from a free magazine Kaze to Rock 2009 if I am not mistaken which documents his Inasayama 2009 concert (the one where he returned to Nagasaki). Some are from his Rome visit. A few from his road tours perhaps. One in particular with a message behind him is definitely from his night time visit to I believe the airport or somewhere in Nagasaki during his concert in 2009, which you can see in the Document part of the DVDs. A few I have seen in his BROS Magazine, those rare ones where I have access to, which documents his Michishirube 2009 tour. All these probably from his 2010 calender release as well. However the first few ones, with him in a beanie cap without makeup is definitely from the photo booklet that is included in one of the releases of Hotaru/Shounen release, to which I am sure you won't find the scans elsewhere. Anyway whilst you can find the same pictures in other sources, the youtuber probabler used the booklet of Hotaru/Shounen and the calender (Fukuyama Masaharu Himekuri-Makuri 2010) as the source of the pictures. Which is why I truly love this fanmade video. I love it so much I actually spent some minutes screeencapturing all the images. I know the effort is not mine but the immense effort of the original uploader that is the maker of the above video to which I am taking no credit at all. I want to share my screencaptures with you, some of which you will see in other pictures topics in this blog as well. Anyway, I have reuploaded them to a slideshow, so that it goes slower. There may be 1 or 2 repetition but that is my own fault. If you like what you see, feel free to take them but do make sure to credit the original youtuber, mashajyuria. A great big thanks to the said youtuber for some of these never been seen before pictures of Masha being Masha.
The not so great quality pictures (but big size) after Read More link ...
All are thumbnails. Click on it, then click the image in new window again to make sure you get the full sized picture. I took the captures in full window mode, hence the not so clear quality. All pictures credit to mashajyuria except for those expressly noted the source.
This is the cover of the calender I talked about above, which can be seen here for purchase but ermm... sold out! I searched for more example pictures and found the following ...
Masha doing yoga? Looks like meditation! Source is here. I wonder can he bend one leg over the other side of his head??
I wish someone would scan and post more but I understand that if you want them, you have to buy them. But it would be nice even if it is a small scan. I would love to see more of those meditation pictures! Which is why I love this fanmade video, which is one of the few access to such pictures.
MY FAVOURITE FROM THE ABOVE
That is definitely in Nagasaki but are those Ryoma's boots he is wearing? I checked and indeed! On top of a hill above Teramachi Street, near the museum. You can see the bronze boots pictures here.
AND A HEARTWARMING ONE
AND A HEARTWARMING ONE
I asked the girls at MashaPlus Info Forums what the above meant and River as well as Pillowmasha replied;
Okaeri-nasai, Fukuyama Masaharu-san."Welcome home, Fukuyama Masaharu-san"
If I remember correctly he took this picture very very late at night. No wonder he took a picture of this banner. I find that rather heartwarming.
There are some great scans in my collection that I obtained through the grace of other fans who took the time to scan but however those can't be reposted unfortunately. What I can say though I love seeing Masha with a guitar, which you can some collection here.
