Re: Kasahara Momona Becomes Candidate on Produce 101 Japan

Glad to see Keiko still in there. I think she was a bit obnoxious in the beginning but I've come to like her a lot.

Lol! Remember when we said Sakura joined only to replace Aarii as a visual! Well, she also went the same vocal route Aarii went before her! But *definitely* faster. I think Sugai-sensei's work is very obvious when you compare Juice to for example Morning.* *Morning didn't have tone deaf members sinc...

Re: Fukumura Mizuki to graduate Fall 2023

Honestly, I hope it's just a case of being lanky while growing into her body, but she really *does* look sickly thin.

On Rairi (personally I like this more than Riley, but we'll probably never get an official version :lol), I hope you're right! I can see the potential in her.

That was a good concert. I haven't had as much fun at a MM concert in years but they really did well. Looking at 15th gen and onwards I am not worried about the group's future. It seems like 15th gen and Rairi are already ready to take on things stage (though 15th gen always surprised me regarding t...

Fair, she really doesn't have to do anything. Girl has been in Morning Musume for a decade, and in leading positions for a good part of that. And she's from a rich family so she has a lot of support. Maybe she can actually try out other things, maybe even going into voice acting, or more theater, or...

I remember people discussing this is a thing among new girls because it's hard to get used to in-ears, but honestly, then they might have to cut back on performances or get better equipment?

Completely different from the MV I had in mind (thanks to the latest trends in H!P i connect outdoor MVs to ballads), but still very fun.

Re: If a time traveler were to check into Morning Musume '23...

Wow, interesting. Has Tsunku being detached from post-11th gen affected their popularity and how the fans perceive them? Hm, not really. I'd say some long-time fans might have noticed something, but it did not really mirror their popularity. For example, Maria is one of the top sellers right now an...

Re: Kasahara Momona Becomes Candidate on Produce 101 Japan

I think it would have, especially with Anju. However, her dancing wouldn't, with all due respect, since H!P does dancing very different from what Produce 101 seems to want. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Riz7aGfaCq0 That being said, Kassa is probably ready to debut again. I would be shocked at this...

Very good point! Yeah, I would've loved a tiny bit more punch for the new one, but then again it's more or less a re-imagining so it's fine. Better this way than having it sound too alike.

Very nice. While the new one is smoother and maybe more mature, I thought it missed the edge the original one had. Nice mix.

Re: If a time traveler were to check into Morning Musume '23...

On Tsunku, since you bring him up: given he stepped away as H!P general manager in 2014-ish, has that affected MM auditions and members? Are the new people in charge selecting new members differently than how Tsunku would've done it? I'd say yes, and the most striking point to me is that he barely ...
