Morning Musume v.9.0

[Renai]

Dude, the girl to the right hand side has some long hair! Is that Ikuta or someone else? I'm a little mixed up with the new members.

[Special Needs Tricycle]

That's Riho. Erina is in the middle. Kanon on the left.

[Renai]

Wow, that's the only note I had to take. It'd be a sin for them to cut Riho's hair really, it just looks so pretty. I like girls with really long hair, personally.

[aine]

So it's official, right?



I finally watched the audition special now. I could only make this much out of it during the short breaks when Berry had to interrupt her tirade of hate towards Kanon to catch a breath, but:



Erina - not memorable at all, not offensive at all. Okay-ish voice. Will have to re-watch, but I hope her potential will go towards the good.



Kanon - has a Koharu and Sumire's love child vibe and that's not good. I don't hate her anywhere near the level that Berry does, but I can see where it's coming from. Manly voice so I hope for little to no solo lines.



Riho - apparently everyone's favourite, and rightly so. Voice that puts to shame all other candidates. And some established members too, to be honest. And look at them moves. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... prised.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> It almost doesn't make sense that Tsuku picked her!



The Egg Person - ¯\(°_o)/¯



I for one am glad that Aina didn't get picked, if only because every time you mentioned her name it activated my notification alert on IRC. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':doh:' /> The remaining one candidate I don't remember, other than that she was rather weak.



Overall, it could have been much worse. And it's probably the best we could have gotten given the source material, so I'm pretty giddy and excited. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /weeeh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> It's like the 6th gen again and we all know it was the best gen ever. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ohyeah.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D/' />

Riho already looks like she's modeling for a hair add in that picture.

And oh man they are so tiny ! (Reina is also rather tiny)

[Shoujo Q]

Cutest Riho Picture so far.

[Pi Mako]

Helll yesssssssssssss Kanon got in. And I cannot BELIEVE Minami Mogi did not get in. This is fantastic news. My top two got in, Erina is kind of a random additon, w/e, I'll take her too since at least Riho and Kanon got in. And I have no idea who this egg girl is.

[Vikitty]

D'awwwwwwwwwwwww how adorable.

[Shoujo Q]

They all tiny!

[Mukuro]

I'm extremley happy about this lineup~ I will have to go look at the Egg though, cause I don't really know her.I hope their new single comes out remotley soon! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... deways.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':doh:' />





EDIT: Haha I just realized, MM now has 9 members after the 9th generation auditions.

Digging through youtube for Mizuki videos and this is what I can find.



Watashi no Tamago behind the scenes footage.



More Shugo Chara Behind the scenes stuff.





I'm going to call this the Cookie generation instead of the Kyukkies. Who's with me? D:

I have my doubts about that one. Sounds like one rumour that coulda easily been made up, from my point of veiw. Not being surprised about anything though.[/quote]



I swear I hit my head on my desk so hard I have a broken nose now.



She's not the egg I was wanting, but I'm happy for her. I had just really hoped Saho would've made it in. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':doh:' />

And YES to the Cookie Generation.

Because Kyukkie sounds like Cookie.





This thread needs more Riho. (I totally took that from Arama! :3)

Yeah seriously. Fucking hell, ANOTHER ERI.



Though, I am the only person on the board that likes this one. She's cute! What are you people smoking?



SO AMAZING. Happiest New Year <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> What a great line up! I am totally speechless at this development.



Since I am really immature, I actually watched Shugo Chara until those girls took up half of the show. Although it stopped being interesting quick, I always thought Ms. Pink was incredibly pretty. So, it is amazing that she's in mm now! So many people hoped Tsunku would add an Egg at last and he chose a good one.



I guess the great twist of this audition is Tsunku actually added the talented, adorable girls haha!

[neshcom]

I'm really happy with the picks! Except the Egg and maybe Erina. The Egg looks frumpy and Erina was boring, but now she's cute! They all prettied up since the audition. I'm really excited about Kanon because she actually has personality.

I LIKED AINA TOO! You're not the only one!! Plus I think eri did too, but I can't really tell.

Oh, Kanon. We welcome you anyway. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':doh:' />



Anyway, 2 of the 3 girls I liked got in. (The third was Aina, sbj, so you are not alone.) And Kikkawa Yuu is a soloist. And RIHO! RIHO RIHO RIHO. I cannot BELIEVE she got in. She was too good to get in!



I am so pleased. We are all so pleased. This is not the reality any of us are used to. Should I make a cake?

I thought she was pretty but they gave her zero footage so, I couldn't decide one way or the other.

OMG 9TH GEN CAKE NAO PLZ.

[momoirosaya]

I had a dream that Tsunku said "9th gen is always smiling!"

And to prove it he had them chased around on a golf/baseball feild by a fat half naked pedophile guy, and the 9th gen girls had to run away but smile and laugh the whole time.

When i woke up I found myself thinking of that episode of Utaban where the fat guy pops out of the box and chases the girls, or the one where he comes down the slide and someone is supposed to catch him.

BITCHES BOW DOWN TO THE NEW QUEEN OF MORNING MUSUME

[tsukinobyouin]

HOLY CRAP. I could not have asked for a better 9gen. I don't remember anything about Erina from the auditions, but that's better than distinctly disliking her. And the other three are such awesome picks anyway *_*



And then Kikkawa Yuu as a soloist! Chisato leading a C-ute single! (Even as a Maimi fan I can still appreciate it xD) I still mourn the loss of JunLinEri, but damn this is the best way they could have possibly made up for it <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... >/ohmy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

[Pi Mako]

When her makeup's done right, Mizuki can look quite pretty ;P
