I like Sayu enough (though I've never been her biggest fan), but I'd kind of like to see her get longest tenure and then have a RIDICULOUS epic grad concert akin to that one awesome photobook she did in which the rest of the girls basically act as her harem <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />



I genuinely have no idea what I want out of 12th gen. Normally I say a voice, but I feel like we have a few underused voices already. Really I just kinda want to let 9th-11th simmer a litte :/

Sayumi will surpass Risa in September or so, so she's got longest tenure in the bag.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I still want them to waive the seniority rules and make Riho the leader.

[/quote]

Um, since when does Riho have seniority? I'm pretty sure Mizuki has the most seniority H!P wise. And, I spit on the idea of that spotlight hogger being leader.

I think that was the point of Madara's post; waiving the seniority rules would allow for Riho to be leader.

At the Budokan w/ fireworks and all the OG? Yes please. Sayu is just the person to want to stick around in MM forever. She's like that friend who never graduates from college.

I would like for them to bring back Sotsugyou Ryokou ~Morning Musume Tabidatsu Hito ni Okuru Uta~. Have all the girls sing it to Sayumi, it would be a giant ball of tears and be epic fun.

I feel like they should sing that at all graduation concerts.

[Shoujo Q]

They should, but Kei was the only special person. I guess Tsunku had a real soft spot for Kei.

Plus the song was actually based on a hot springs trip Kei went on with Yaguchi & Rika, so I don't think it'd work if they sang it to another girl... emotional value? or something

[/quote]



Don't ruin my dreams. Tsunku can always change lyrics. :P

I saw Onsen, and I was wondering why they were talking about a hot spring, but now I don't have to ask.

[momoirosaya]

I just thought of something, what if they add Tasaki Asashi to MM (ala Mikitty)? They're not really promoting her solo work to a larger audience other than current H!P fans, so I don't know if they're planning on going anywhere with that. Just a thought....

I'd be fine with this, but I really enjoy her solo work so I'd hope not.

[rob]

I think this has been mentioned before, similar to Kikka she is involved with a totally seperate agency to MM..... or something

Kikka is with Up Front, but her label is Universal. Asahi is with Up Front and under one of their indie labels I believe.

[Trinu]

I don't mind if they put that Asahi girl or Kikka or whoever as long as they put Rikako in. (L)

Footage from auditions.  No faces shown.
 
All I have to say is.... I don't want Tsunku to add more members.
 
Oda still hasn't had her moment.  And I love everyone (Erina is still growing on me...), and I don't want that to change.
 
I want a 7 to be pulled.  Just a little bit longer with this lineup.  Please?

[freezingkiss]

I hope Kikkawa doesn't get put in. I like her as a soloist and her beauty and talent surpass current Morning Musume I think. She is REALLY beautiful. She'd stand out too much and make the rest of them look bad (not that the rest of them aren't beautiful, they are, it's just...Kikka man ) 
 
I hope there be an egg, but also a few more because just holding an entire audition JUST to pick an egg is unnecessary. Oda could have been put in without a big nationwide audition. 

[yuzuriha]

They would never add Kikka at this point, she's "too old".

[Anderei]

That and she's probably got a contract with Universal, and who knows how long it's for.

[al kusanagi]

Kikka? It's all about Asahi Tasaki. She NEEDS to be in MM.

She's kinda boring...

[Enmiz]

Thanks for nothing, Up-Front! I got my hopes up and everything. 
 
 
I don't want Asahi in MM. She has some great solo work, and I think that fits her.

No new news, but all of the girls that they showed looked pretty. Or at least they do from the neck down because that's all we saw.
Also, I'm just curious. Anyone else watch this and scan for Cuca the whole time?

[Trinu]

I hate it when they show nothing. Grr!
 
oh, well.
 
The 11th gen audition started last August and Sakura was introduced in November... so I'm gonna guess this gen might get introduced at the end of the H!P summer tour (which makes time for a post-Reina/pre-12th single).
 
Ugg, the wait.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. The second round in Tokyo doesn't even begin until 6/29. Everything they're showing is girls showing up for the first round.

[Trinu]

There are 3 rounds + camp, right? If they do it again. :/
 
Oh, well... then I guess they'd be introduced at the beginning of the fall tour and debut by the winter one? lol
 
I love speculating, in casr you wonder ^^"

[Anderei]

Yeah, three rounds and the camp. And they drag the camp results out normally. The last one was an exception.

Because it was really just a glorified egg audition and an excuse to put Sakura in. I'm still happy with it . . . sort of.

[showraniy]

Sakura was an egg? I guess that's why she's so fantastic.
 
I wonder if I'm a bad fan, because I can't muster any care for aaaany auditions. 9th gen's footage following the camps helped tremendously in cares, but these past ones haven't gotten a single feeling out of me...

Yeah, she got picked up as a kenshuusei in 2011 and was a S/mileage finalist. She was only a part of two live events though.
