each one links to a different video.

Does anyone know if these are in English? Maybe we can get someone to translate.

I'll have to check this out. I agree, it would be nice if we had someone here who could translate these from Japanese to English. I will note that the Japanese modeling magazines I have looked at are easy to follow through the pictures if you don't know how to read Japanese.
