Wow I wasn’t expecting this! But it does feel like management hasn’t cared about them since all their scandals. Plus BEYOOOOONDS is kind of taking their place with interesting powerful songs.


Part of me hopes they’ll put Rei in ANGERME. It will balance out vocals with Funaki gone.

Jesus Christ, 7 years???? 12th gen are like the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse bringing death to MM.


The only one I like is Maria, but she can’t sing well :(

I think Beyooooonds is definitely going to get an Olympics tie in. I mean they have 5 O’s, and there are 5 Olympic rings. Part of me wonders if it was intentional.

I really like Moe, but her singing and dancing kind of just always seems at the same level. Not bad! It’s good, but there’s not the same passion when watching other girls.

I noticed Ikuta isn’t listed, but I assume she’s singing with the MM audition winners group.

But I can!

Homare is so adorable.


The new girls and Maria and Yokoyan are the only ones I feel like put our pure energy. Everyone else always seems tired (in general).

Masaki and Oda are the sexy-tantou’s though so I don’t mind.


I hate feeling like MM’14 was their last good year.

Best song of the year!


I feel like the tiles are easier though if you speak Japanese (sorry if you do, maybe it’s just me then). I feel like these long titles are a trend that hasn’t ended yet. Remember that one super long AKB song??

The lyrics are lame for me. Like the situation itself is overdone...

I found the pairing shots to be badly acted for the most part so I found them cringey.


Those only work with more experienced girls who know how to control their expressions.

I’m surprised by how dirty this was too when I actually listened to the recording. Like if this was America he’d definitely have to make a public apology.

No he’s a famous comedian. He’s all over TV.

Kodama Ameko is my favorite. I usually always love her songs.

Maro’s dad passed away. She made a post on Instagram, he was only 49.

I think this is also their first weekly #1 ever! Happy for them!

I know the release event I went to they did 2 in the same day (mini live and handshake event), and there were about 600 people at each live, and I definitely saw fans purchasing more than 1 CD, the guy in front of me got 8, so I can imagine that sales are inflated by stuff like that. They also did o...

I hated it.... like it was too cheesy that it seemed real, rather than like a parody of something which it might have been aiming to do.

Airi’s new song “Break it down” is so good! I think this is one co-written by Official HIGE Dandism who I also love, so I love the style of the song a lot.

I’m excited for her album.

Ugh I’m officially an old fan. I don’t want any new people in the group. I miss Ayacho and Rina.

Not having lessons is probably why girls get stuff like nodes too.

Riai fits in really well, but Yume’s dancing is too sharp and energetic for the group. To me she stood out a bit like a sore thumb. I know though they focus on bigness and energy so KSS, so she’ll just have to learn how to adapt to a more mature group. Manaka has gotten a lot better at singing recen...
