^ [spoilerbox]With regard to the Mizuki situation, they prefer to have someone well-rounded as the face of the group. (Obviously, they’ve had centers who weren’t so great at everything. They have to work with what they have.) But, ideally, this person should be strong in singing, dancing, facial exp...

I’m not a Rin fan myself, but she’s a good dancer and could be very good (for an H!P idol) if she becomes more expressive. And that’s enough for me to count her as a valuable member, even if her facial expressions are lacking at the moment. There are plenty of capable dancers in H!P, but not that ma...

Is Ishiguri the one who sang Kimagure Princess and Resonant Blue? She’s pretty weak, imo. Yume and Mei are both better than she is. Mei has a quite a lot to work on, but she’s shown she can support her voice pretty well and even resonate at times, which is rare for HP. I think she’ll be useful as a ...

I didn’t think any of the performances were good, but Yofuu sounds like she has real potential.

They’re probably all getting one, and they’re releasing them in order of their ages, from youngest to oldest. I wonder if Rio’s will be a regular PB.

LOVEpedia, definitely. I love the intro. But overall, I think both are pretty bland. I enjoyed the concert, although it sounded like Sakura was a bit sick. Mizuki sounded good, though. Besides the new songs and Suki na Senpai, I don’t think 15th gen sang at all, but I really liked what I saw of them.

Not too surprised about any of this, except for Funaki leaving Angerme. Four members leaving so close together... it’s tough. I wonder if they’ll add more members again soon.

Aw, new girls look so tired, haha. This song is at the end of the concert, isn’t it?


I hope it isn’t going to be part of the new single. :/ I want 15th gen to have a good debut with proper solo lines.

They are VERY unpolished, but I agree that Rio could be a lead (Sakura/Mizuki level) in the future. I’m also hoping that Homare could eventually be a secondary/supporting singer (Masaki-level). I guess Mei will be on next week?

I wonder if Riho was supposed to be the Avenger in Philly. They are no longer using the stands, and someone on Reddit was wondering if the reason for their removal was Riho twisting her ankle or something jumping off of one. Supposing something like that actually did happen, then maybe she wasn’t re...

I’m so sorry it didn’t work out, Thea. :( Anyway, some creep has been taking comments from here and other H!P websites and posting them on Reddit to “prove” that Riho fans don’t care about Babymetal and think the other avengers are worthless. For the record, I am more of a Babymetal fan than a H!P f...

I really wanted to go, but since Ohmura won’t be there (the band is all Americans for this tour) AND there’s a good chance that one of the other dancers will be there instead of Riho (Momoko Okazaki was in DC), I’ve decided against it.

I really want her to stay for two more years, so I hope that’s true.

Mei always looks ridiculously happy when she’s performing. I really like her.

There are other factors besides poor technique that can lead to the development of nodules (singing too much outside of one’s natural range, for example). Also, some people may simply be more delicate and become damaged more easily than others.

Rio was very nervous, but she has potential for sure. Based on the little that I’ve seen of them, my hope is that Rio will be a strong singer, Mei will be a strong dancer, and Homare will be decent at both singing and dancing. And they’re all really cute. We’ll see how things turn out, but I’m cauti...

My favorite singer, favorite guitar player, and favorite dancer all on one stage. Aaaaah. I hadn’t checked any H!P or Babymetal websites in a while, so the first time I heard of this was when I clicked on the Shanti Glastonbury video and saw her. It was so shocking, ha ha. Her hand movements are soo...

Sounds more like the Sakura and Mizuki show to me, which is what pretty much every song is like now.

[quote="Anderei"] That best singer list is even worse than best dancer. Riho, Kanon and Masaki have no business being on it.    Really, I'd be asking why Eripon and Rikako ranked so high on the dancing list too lol. Not terrible but not best tier when compared to other people, even within ...

I'm happy for her, but this might kill my interest in the group.   I hope not, though. We'll see. 
 
Anyways, I also hope we get watch her do whatever she's going to do... and that it doesn't involve too much dancing, lol. 

This sucks. I've complained about her singing as much as anybody else, but she's one of my favorite members. They're losing a very talented dancer. Now there's just Ayumi. But it's probably better for her. Nobody with her level of ability could be very happy doing "formation dance" all the...

Sounds like a "Riho/Sakura with Mizuki" song. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. It's kind of bland, but there are some parts that I like a lot.  

[quote="Myst"]  I think Masaki and Sakura are officially the top two vocalists in the group at this time. [/quote]   Mizuki is a lot better than Masaki. Masaki sounds strained, thin, and screechy pretty much all the time. Mizuki has plenty of her own problems, but she is much more consiste...
