Out of the 10, 6 of the members are part of Gatas Brilhantes H.P. The other 4 are just special Hello Project Eggs, however they are reserves for Gatas Brilhantes H.P. Up Front Agency probably wanted to promote some eggs and didn't include Shibata Ayumi and Fujimoto Miki because they were in "scandals" at the time the news was reached to the public (plus both of them have a lot of lines in their respective groups, they were the lead singers.)
Yoshizawa Hitomi - Once a member of Morning Musume and PetitMoni. She just graduated in May and this is her first single release including her after her graduation. She is currently the captain of Gatas Brilhantes H.P. and Ongaku Gatas. Is known for her tomboy nature, but she still has a beauty side like seen in the PV.
Ishikawa Rika - Once a member of Morning Musume and is the current leader of Biyuuden (Viyuuden, V-u-den, however you want to spell it). She graduated Morning Musume in 2005 and is working full time Biyuuden now. She is known as the "beauty" one and is a narcissistic, especially when she was in Morning Musume. She is considered as one of the "worst" voices in Hello! Project (This is just the opinion of some people, I believe Rika has a nice voice and it's special. I like her voice, but sometimes it's hard to listen to...)
Konno Asami - Once a member of Morning Musume and supposedly quit Hello! Project to continue schooling. She was considered the smartest member of Morning Musume. She goes to Keio University and when she has time, she'll be working with Up Front Agency again (and Gatas). However, school would come first. She is also considered as one of the "worst" voices in Hello! Project too. (I like her too! She might not be as strong as some other people, but she's strong enough to stay here for this long.)
Satoda Mai - The remaining member of Country Musume. She was found during the 4th Generation audition that also had Yoshizawa Hitomi, Ishikawa Rika, Kago Ai, Tsuji Nozomi and Fujimoto Miki. She is found as a beauty type also. She is best friends with Yoshizawa Hitomi and Kimura Ayaka.
Korenaga Miki - She is known as the "other" Miki. She is a member of Gatas Brilhantes H.P. and is a Hello! Project egg. This will be her first debut song as an artist.
Mutou Mika - She is the other Hello! Project egg that's in Gatas Brilhantes H.P. and was part of Little Gatas with the Hello! Project kids. In April, Little Gatas and Gatas Brilhantes H.P. reassembled and some members were left as reserves and others put on the team.
Mano Erina - She is a Hello! Project Egg and a reserve player for the team. (Many people have fallen for this member.) She has quite a number of screen time in the music video.
Noto Arisa - She is a Hello! Project Egg and also the leader of Tomoiki Kiwouetai. She also is a reserve player for the team.
Sawada Yuri - She is a Hello! Project Egg and is also a child actor. She has starred in two dramas. She is also a reserve player.
Sengoku Minami - She is a Hello! Project Egg and is a reserve player for the team.
The song:
Narihajimeta Koi no Bell is the debut song of Ongaku Gatas and 6 Hello Project Eggs in a singing group. The song is fast paced and the harmonies are good. It's not that bad for the eggs because they actually have solo lines in the song except for Miki and Mika. It starts with Hitomi singing with Miki and Mika harmonizing with her (I checked projecthello) Rika gets a fair number of lines in the song along with Hitomi, Asami and Mai. Out of the Eggs I believe Mano Erina gets the most lines. Miki and Mika have been pushed off to the side, but I hope, in the next song, they'll get more lines than now. I read somewhere that the song reminds them of Egao Yes Nude a little bit... I don't know if it does or not though. xDD The center voice sounds like it's Hitomi, but I think I might be bias about it since she's my favorite member of the whole Hello! Project. xD Asami gets quite a few number of lines, more than in a normal single during her Morning Musume career excluding Namida ga Tomaranai Hokago.
The PV:
The song seems to match the video. Each member is wearing an outfit similar to the outfit they wore for the group picture on the Hello! Project site, except in black and a little bit of red. The outfit looks nice on them. (I think I'm being bias again) At least the budget looks more than what they used for Onna ni Sache Are... they have SHOES and the clothes look very expensive and warm (O_o.... I think Hitomi's wearing those gloves she wore for Kanashimi Twilight... She's the only one wearing gloves.) Rika seems to be the center since she's shown a lot in the shots. Mano Erina seems to get a lot of screen time. Korenaga Miki and Mutou Mika aren't featured a lot... I didn't notice them the first time I watched the PV. Asami seems to be trying a little too hard? Or her singing seems forced a little more than it used to be when she was in Morning Musume. (BUT, I like the exposure of her in the video.) Maybe she's getting very confident. However every member looks very pretty and nice. The background reminds me of Roman ~My Dear Boy~ because of the black theme they used (except the purple outfits, those were just hideous) as the background. As a dance it seems entertaining to learn, but I get too lazy so I'll most likely won't learn it (unless someone is willing to teach me).
Please, if you like them, please support them by buying the Single and Single V. (I got the Single... I probably won't get the Single V though...)
