Alrighty, first one would be my
dream and the second the more realistic one.
- Yuko
- Kaorin
- Nacchi
- Kei
- Mari
- Goto
- Charmy
- Yossy
- Nono
- Aibon
- Ai
- Mikitty
- Kame
- Sayu
- Reina
- Mizuki
- Riho
- Ayumi
- Masaki
- Sakura
- Maria
21 would be way too big for a group though
A more realistic one:
1st gen:
- Yuuko
- Kaorin
- Nacchi
And honestly, if it wasn't for Nacchi coming back last year for her voice acting job I'd have left her out. At this point a lot of girls also decide to stay private and that's fair. I'm also not sure if they'd be up for a bigger thing - one concert might be okay, but big promotions with several performances could be a bit too much, especially since Nacchi's youngest is only 3 or 4 years old (judging by Japanese standards). I feel like Ishiguro and Asuka might be up if they were asked but if we're being honest while they're first gen they left too soon to be included in the
dream unit.
2nd gen:
- Kei
I'm keeping Mari out since her youngest kid was born in October.
3rd gen:
- Goto
As of 2021 Gocchin is back in performance business, birches! Since she still has connections to Up Front why shouldn't she join?
4th gen:
- Nono
- Aibon
Rika has opened up an insta account recently but I'm not sure if she's up for performances yet. She was one of those who seemed to keep more to their private lives lately. Yossy is out for obvious reasons. Nozomi seems to be up for most things, and hey, they did a small W reunion, so why shouldn't Aibon join as well?
5th gen:
- Ai
Ai is active in Up Front so she's an obvious choice. Konno seems content with her mamadol blog. Ogawa... well... I feel like she could join, but I also feel like she was a filler member back when the first DMM was announced. Gaki was still in the group, Ai had just graduated, Konno was busy as a TV reporter... but they couldn't do the thing without a 5th gen member.
As for Gaki, she seems to be quite content as a freelancer, but she could definitely join.
6th gen:
- Sayu
- Reina
As much of a legend that Kame is... it's also very unlikely for her to come back to showbiz. Sayu and Reina however I can see join easily. For Miki it depends. I feel like she only gets up on stage to perform her own hits lol and also she's got a young child.
7th gen:
-
I can do without Koha.
8th gen:
-
Unfortunately only legendary for how overlooked they were. On top of that Aika retired and JunLin are busy in China.
9th gen:
- Mizuki
- Riho
I do want to add Erina in there too, because girl made it so far while being in the back and built up her own legacy.
Mizuki and Riho however are a must. They named a whole era after Mizuki, for f's sake! And Riho definitely is a legend on her own.
10th gen:
- Ayumi
- Masaki
Probably all would be up for it - except for Masaki lol, never know what the girl is up to - but I feel like especially Ayumi and Masaki are
legendary.
11th gen:
- Sakura
Yup, Utahime gotta join. One of the best singers in MM's history
has to be there.
12th gen:
- Maria
I know people will want Miki here but, eh. She's good, but she's taken too long to bloom, and even now she's still second row. Maria at least has her gravure queen thing going.
I feel like everything past 12th gen is still too fresh. Kaedii I could see for her cinderella story, but everybody else is there right now to become legends for a third installment of Dream Morning Musume.
