Re: The Star Wars thread
I just want to pop into this thread really quickly to say that I have no opinion on Rey as of yet because she could still morph into a more realistic, flawed character (and I didn't mind her Mary Sue-esque scenes too much besides the mind powers), but Finn is absolutely the star of The Force Awakens...

Re: Morning Musume '16 Shinseiki Auditions
Y'all are silly with the Ruru edits.
I think Cuca auditioned for MM during 9th gen's auditions and got rejected, didn't she? I figured that was the end of that.

Re: Asia in the news
Bitterness, from what I could gather, but I think it stands for a little more than that in terms of being a tribute to the women's suffering and torture that seems to be little talked about in the overall narrative of country-hatred-aggression. People talk about comfort women in a very general, glos...

Re: Asia in the news
I've been reading a lot of things on this topic lately, and it's crazy interesting to get a much more intimate look at such an ugly time in human history. I hope it's not too easily forgotten, and I hope the statue in front of the Japanese embassy stays there.

Well, isn't she the one who rushed it though? She suddenly announced her graduation a few months from the actual day, so it doesn't seem to me like UFA had time to NOT rush it. Maybe that's wrong, but that was my impression. And to be honest, I think they've done a fantastic job! We have good songs,...

I find this desperation kind of surprising, considering Akimoto seemed to be well aware of AKB's lifespan (~10 years, which has been spot-on so far). I guess the company can't just give up its mega-value cash cow that gracefully. Oh well, I can dissect it all I like, but I know I'll check in to th...

Tsumetai is great! I love it, and I think this is the most justice I've ever seen a graduating member get (minus Takahashi). It's glaringly obvious that Riho's mini dance solos were choreographed by someone with inferior dance skills, because I know she can do way more than that. Of course, that's w...

Now that I've had a chance to listen to all the previews and see the PVs (minus the radio rip of Tsumetai because I like seeing the video with the song for first impressions), I've got to say that I'm very optimistic about this single! I don't get the negativity at all, unless people are just upset ...

Re: UFP/OG Spam Thread :: All things non-Hello!Project Related!
Strangely, I think Reina is perfect as Miaka. I remember Fushigi Yuugi just baaarely since I didn't get too far into it, but wasn't Miaka kinda fiery and passionate? I think that would suit Reina well, and maybe she can make the awkward love subplots more interesting and less awkward.
