[Ap2000]

Thanks for the rest, TnB !

[Renai]

Erina seems like a really calm, down-to earth person. She's starting to grow on me.



Kanon STILL no.1 in the 9th gen for me though! She seems all genki and hyper! XD

I don't know how to break this to you but she said Strawberries not strawberryjam, a subtle difference but important <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... tongue.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' />.

[Anderei]

The group photo looks awkward. And I think they should do something with Riho's bangs.

[Shoujo Q]

What's wrong with Riho's bangs? D:



And yes I'll move this over to the Meet the 9th Gen. Thread.



And I love their sweaters! :D

[Anderei]

I just think they'd flatter her more if they were somewhat thicker and went all the way back to the rest of her hair is all.



I also love the sweaters, although I'm disappointed that Erina's headlight stare is back so soon.

[Renai]

They can change all the bangs they want with Riho and it wouldn't bother me.



Just DO NOT touch her hair length!!!!!!!

[Shoujo Q]

9th Gen have left solo messages on youtube in the Morning Musume YouTube Channel



Watch them all!
