Hello! Pro Kenshuusei get active!

[Banana]

That's a bummer. The reactions from some people on H!O are really insane, though. I get being sad because Tanabe has been a KSS for like five years so some people were really attached to her, but they're acting like she was the next Karin or Airi. 

[momoirosaya]

Tanapyon T__T

They definitely were some of the better KSS that I wanted to see debut...

[Mezumiiru]

It's really hard for someone who followed her from Shugo Chara Egg auditions

They're reacting like she was already in a group and the company kicked her out. It's way over the top.

[al kusanagi]

I'm upset because she was the best Egg that they never did anything with. Even with Karin around, Nanami was in the top two when it came to popularity and all their various test things. Then to see other members get put into S/m, MM, J=J, and now even the new Country Musume unit, it's pretty much bullshit.

[Mukuro]

I agree with Al she's been my favorite since she joined I don't want her to leave. :(

[Banana]

I totally understand being upset, especially considering the level of ability of some of the girls who have been promoted over her. I don't have a problem being annoyed or depressed about that. Frankly, I'm annoyed that she wasn't included in the Country Girls unit. She would have be perfect for that. But some of the comments from the people from the other forum were nuts. She's one of the better eggs, but you'd think they were talking about losing someone with Ogawa Saki's or Kikka's skills. 

[Derby]

Yesterday I was just happy for Manaka but today I realized that Nanami and Kurumi left the KSS and they were the 'oldest' members,
leaving Hamaura as the oldest now alongside Natsumi. I just hope she does not get tired of auditioning and unsuccessfully failing like Kaneko and the others did...

[Banana]

I think Ayano is safe for now. Unlike with Nanami, they've been pushing her quite a bit for a while now, and especially lately.

[Anderei]

3rd and 12th gen members will be at the upcoming concert.


Murota, Sasaki, Aikawa - 11/29 in Nagoya

Maria, Akane, Murota, Sasaki - 12/6 at Zepp Tokyo

Maria, Akane, Murota, Sasaki, Aikawa - 12/29 at Osaka


Original source said filling in but I'm not sure for who or why. Maybe they'll do a mini-graduation ceremony at the end for them.

[rob]

You're all presuming that she wanted to stay in the idol world after finishing KSS, they might have wanted to just go back to a normal life like Saki and Yuuka... 

[Anderei]

That blog was deleted.


I bet these are the 12th gen audition girls.

[Anderei]

That was fast. Here's another photo:

 
 
And here's a video of her singing.

[Solarblade]

So at the Nana Tamago performance 7 more Kenshuusei were announce (on top of Onoda and Asakura) BTW, it's definitely Asakura Kiki
 
-Onoda Saori
-Asakura Kiki
-Hashimoto Nagisa (former NGP Trainee)

-Horie Kizuki (former NGP Trainee)

-Ogata Risa (former NGP Trainee, also participated in 11th Gen auditions)

-Shimano Momoko (former NGP Trainee)

-Hirose Ayaka (former NGP Trainee, also auditioned in 11th Gen auditions)

-Tanimoto Ami (12 Gen finalist)

-Inoue Rei (former NGP Trainee

[Anderei]

I was wondering what happened to all those NGP trainees. But jeez, once you think the rosters shrinking they go and add a ton of new girls.

[TicTacAnyone]

Spoiler: [+]

 
Asakura Kiki
 
and
 
Onoda Saori

The rest of the Kenshuusei

[Kimmy]

..is it me or does Saori look like Karin?

[Solarblade]

I'm wondering if we might get another new group by the end of the year, considering the addition of NGP Trainees (be weird that they'd need more and all).
 
^ I definitely see it in Onoda lol, also Asakura kind of weirds me out right now.
 
As for the rest, Fujii's boycut is cute and Mikame has gotten prettier

Some have made that comparison along with saying Asakura looks like Takahashi. XD

[Anderei]

Takahashi right before I turn around and she kills me. Yeah. I see it.

[Anderei]

Nothing big to share, just that they recently did (are doing?) auditions for Kenshuusei.

[momoirosaya]

It seems that Mikame Kana has left Kenshuusei.
 
And Ruru stills sings better than all the new girls added to H!P combined. I want her, and 2 girls with strong vocals to form a new 3 person unit that sings ballad songs or something. I want her, Hirose Ayaka, and Sakura and maybe Airi to sing a song together. I could listen to her sing forever. She wins favorite voice for me over Karin. Ideally I want to hear her as a soloist, but it's not that market right now.

Please don't remind me about my dear Ruru.... She is relatively new to Kenshuusei, so I still have hope. But she just seems like the secret weapon they should've utilized by now. All this talent at (and before) 13....

[Anderei]

Their album ranked at #63 with 1,261 copies sold.

[Solarblade]

According to the site for the upcoming KSS performance


-Mikame has finished training

-New KSS member Kurumi Takase

Ruru sings better even than many of the senior members. Ruru has way too much talent to be an idol in my opinion. I love H!P and it's groups but I fear that they'll ruin her voice. This girl needs to continue with proper vocal training, not the kind she'll receive in H!P, and be prepared to debut as a solo artist. I can only imagine how wonderful she'll sound in a few years with the right training.

[Noa]

She's so pretty and talented, I want her to debut now and be the star of her group. That third video her voice reminds me of what Riho would sound like if they weren't destroying her voice.

[Anderei]

If she debuts I think she'll play Sakura to a lesser vocalist's Riho. I know idols don't need to be beautiful to be center but Ruru is a bit odd looking and UFP would probably pick a more standard looking girl as center.


Plus, I don't know how popular Ruru is. With Tanabe gone, and Ayano and Mizuki in groups, the top 3 Kenshuusei are all out of the program.
