^ I'm not 100% sure, but I thought it was once a week. 
 
About Maria, she is ALWAYS that pitchy. It's not just because she's singing solo, lol. I know because they gave her a lot of lines during her time as a trainee for some odd reason.

Karin's hair is so awful that I feel unreasonably angry whenever they show a close-up of her.

Also...Uemura is giving me some serious Hayami Akari vibes in this o_O

She's always really reminded me of her. 

I still hate Wonderful World, lol. But I love the other song, so I hope it gets a decent MV. 

Watching that just makes me feel tired. It's kind of sad that they still manage their breathing rather poorly despite singing professionally for so long. Airi and Chisato are still really good singers for idols, but... yeah. 

I only like Limited C. Maria looks really pretty on that one.

[quote="Anderei"] It's obviously not going to be as good as the original but Dawa is usually pretty good about her song choices. [/quote]   She really does have great taste when it comes to choosing songs. Whether or not that is actually a good thing depends on how you feel about her singi...

I think he just wrote the lyrics. I don't think he did anything else. I might be wrong about that, though.    I like all the songs so far, but my favorite would be The Middle Management. At first, I was disappointed with how it sounded after the intro (because that was awesome), but it has been grow...

I'm just... not going to comment on that Memory Seishun no Hikari. >.>


These are both mediafire (on the "listen" page if you don't want to download):

12th gen actually sounds worse than I expected. Oh, well. 

I guess it makes sense, but I don't really like it. Being the only strong singer in the group (as far as I know), Ayaka will most likely get a good amount of attention for her vocals, so I would've preferred that the job of leader was given to someone else who doesn't really have a "role" ...

[quote="Anderei"] If you do the math, only 8 people voted for Nonaka. Those things are it's popularity contests and don't mean much. [/quote]   It doesn't mean anything, but it's weird that they didn't get anybody who voted for Sakura ( the singer of Morning Musume) but they managed to fin...

Nonaka Miki will be appearing on Kanjani 8's show "Kanjani no Shiwake" 2 hour special on 3/7.

 

I think she's competing, but I'm not sure. I know a bunch of idols outside H!P who can play the piano pretty darn well, so I wonder if I'll be impressed or not, lol.

[quote="Anderei"]
DEF.DIVA - Maybe not Nacchi, but the other three are definitely the definitive divas of H!P, so this name is cool and makes sense to me.
[/quote]
 
I don't think Rika qualifies as a diva. :P

I don't know how they operate, but she had singing performances, and she said she received vocal lessons.

[quote="Molly"] That third video her voice reminds me of what Riho would sound like if they weren't destroying her voice. [/quote]   I know "UFP's vocal coaches suck" and all that, but Riho went to ASH and had the same vocal coaches as Ruru. She was still using really bad techniq...

Taiki Bansei Live B♪ performance
 
Really nice performance. Mizuki's definitely getting better at singing her big line. 

I like the name. Mostly because factory is one of my favorite words.

Some birthday FC event performances (these are from NicoVideo, so you have to have an account, but it's very easy to make one):    I WISH (Updated Version) - Iikubo Haruna【And a letter from her mother】 Anshinkan - Kudou Haruka Seishun Song - Kudou Haruka 【And a letter from Masaki】 ( YouTube version ...

Sounds like a Robo-Nakky/Mai lead. Not really my thing, but I like the song. Tsugi no Kado wa Magare is my favorite so far, though. 
 
edit: Radio rip of Tsugi no Kado wa Magare

[quote="Shoujo Q"] Also my three picks but not in that order. Job done I can go home early. Peace! Though I really don't hate Masaki. Like Al I do think she's got great potential and future growth she's going to be an amazing asset to the group. I mean she makes study tapes for the 12th ge...

1.  Ikuta Erina:  I don't dislike her offstage, but she annoys me so much during performances. She can't sing to save her life, she is always either dancing like some crazed animal or she's half-assing the moves, and she is constantly staring down into nothingness.    2.  Sato Masaki:  Her mildly am...

[quote="JPope"] As far as her lack of progress from her early days, it's possible that her voice coach is to blame, but it's also possible that she simply never committed to improving since she was already a competent singer -- good enough to be getting regular lines from the beginning. Do...

Reina at her best >>> Risa, imo.   Reina is a very lazy singer and she often uses poor technique despite being able to sing a lot better, so a lot of people think that she's worse than she is. And it's understandable. But she's shown plenty of times that she is perfect capable of producing a rich, r...

[quote="Shoujo Q"]
Vocally, I think out of all the girls, I prefer Yamaki Risa.

Really? She sounded pretty screechy and strained and went noticeably flat at least once during the performance that was shown on H!S.

[quote="Madara"] Amazing that the three best dancers among them are all in the same photo. [/quote]   Three of the best dancers. The very best dancer isn't there. :P   [quote="Anderei"] I'm not impressed. I'm also disappointed Meimi got stuck with someone as bad as Akane. [/quote...

Reina and Risa had a fight and didn't speak to each other for like a year or something like that. Yaguchi didn't get along with Kago and Tsuji.
