Frauleins a-Frolic in the Summer Breeze (07/26/2011)

Hello, everyone! It's me, Uka, the Mighty Maidens' dazzling dance artist!

Last year, that meanie-head Ullegore sent some crrream puffs with more swagger than skill in an awful attempt to steal the spotlight from us. But we sure showed them what rrreal teamwork is all about, didn't we?

I'd like to give a big, sugar-coated shout-out to all our devoted fans who gave us their support. Heck, without you, I'd prrrobably still be slaving away as a stage hand for that killjoy rrright now!

I seriously doubt that obstinate overlord has learrrned his lesson yet, but you can bet your beastcoins that Mumor and I are rrready to outperform any egotistical entertainer he throws at us! With your help, of course! You can't be a star without grrreat fans, right? Tee hee!

Speaking of Mumor, I didn't see her in the drrressing room... What's taking herrr so long? Our concert's totally about to start! If she doesn't show up soon, I might have to go solo...I can alrrready feel the butterflies in my stomach!

Wait, look on the brrright side, Uka! This means you won't be singing backup for once! It's your turn to captivate the crrrowd with your voluptuous voice until Mumor gets here!

Now go out there and sing and dance your tail off!

Shining Summer Samba!!!
