Wonder what DIVA's music is going to be like? Hope it will be rocking. Then we would have Pop Biyuuden & Rocking DIVA! Rika Ishikawa in the group is not necessary. (absolutely not...)

Tsunku: You're enjoying being in a group with Gottsuan, yes?
Ayaya: Hai!
Tsunku: And you've said Nacchi is a wonderful influence and has helped you with some parts of your career?
Ayaya: Hai!
Tsunku: And you're close with Ishikawa-san, right?
Ayaya: Hai!
Tsunku: Good, good. You're in a group with all of them now.
Ayaya: ....Ee?!
Rika post-Biyuuden.. this is going to be really good. Her voice has gotten a lot stronger now. If they keep Biyuuden's early semi-rock, I'd cry tears of joy. As it stands, I'm just WAY excited. The only way it could be better would be if they added Miki Fujimoto.
And put the plotting about each other on camera.
And gave them non-lethal weaponry.
And told them winner gets to be the center.
What?
I wonder what this means for Biyuuden. Yui-chan was just starting to develop a personality.

agreed. "-_- i like biyuuden. i really do. Yui and Erika are strong singers, and Rika's... cute. but Nochiura's not cutsie like Biyuuden. They're cool, and Rika... is cute. Nacchi, Maki, and Ayaya all have strong, good voices. Rika has a tiny little cutsie voice. this sounds very mean and anti-Rika, but it's my opinion...Rika Ishikawa in the group is not necessary. (absolutely not...)
and no, not replacing Biyuuden-- i actually think they have another single coming out in the near future, if i'm correct. as is nacchi, and ayaya's getting.... what? is it a single or a photobook, i can't remember.... and Maki's dying down lately, so she needs attention.
i'm going to go listen to Love Like Crazy now..... sniff....
I miss you both so very much.

what's a surprise unit ! ?

note: not a NEW unit, indicating some sense of longevity.
hope they do some crazy R&B stuff.
that'd be.........crazy.

Then again, if Tsunku decides that he likes the color purple while looking at a koi fish on Thursday, a new group might form.
So, you know, whatever.
Listen to Rika's voice on Koi no Nukegara. I really think the baby voice only happens when she goes into her upper-ranges. I adore Rika, I really do, but my first thought when I heard that song was "Holy crap, someone taught Ishikawa to sing!"
To answer the other question: Ayaya's getting--- a break. After doing 50 kabillion commericials.

Ok, she's fine with Biyuuden, but Nochiura Natsumi is much better in my opinion, and without Rika! I mean, Love Like Crazy is one of my favorites songs in all H!P, but I can't even imagine Rika's voice in a song like that...
By the way, Tsunku is overdoing it. Rika appears in every single H!P live, but where's the others? Many disappeared units, such Country, Melon Kinenbi, the shuffle units and etc, and how about solo singers? Where's Mari, Kei, Kaori, etc? But no, instead bringing back some of these, Tsunku put Rika in every single unit, live and tv show...

They probably don't want one.
It's /nice/ not having the media scrutinize you constantly, sometimes.
We're average fans, and I think once a week there's someone complaining that the girls aren't doing enough and we don't see them enough. Imagine how much the really, really dedicated fans much harass and harange when they're in the spotlight. Sometimes people just need a rest.
Think about how active they all were when they were early twenties; but they're all also older now and probably are shifting priorities--deciding whether they want to have public lives still, whether they want to retire from music, and hopefully taking college courses and other things they couldn't do when they were an idol. This was a dedication most of them made when they were 13 to 16 to do with their lives, and they're probably spending time debating what to do next while they have the breather.
As Kaori's verse said in Joshi Kashimashi--most of their friends are married with families, and I wouldn't be surprised if there's a little feeling of sadness at having been away from the world for so long due to rehearsals and touring and practices and so on.

and so, the girls can quit. I assume it's not as easy as saying, "bye Tsunku, maybe we'll meet up someday," but.... examples: Asuka Fukuda, Aya Ishiguro, and Sayaka Ichii.
if there's a little feeling of sadness at having been away from the world for so long due to rehearsals and touring and practices and so on.
I wouldn't know if any of the girls do complain, but I wonder if they would get into such a business and then complain about it. I'm sure it has its ups and downs, but they can quit. Mari hasn't left H!P, but whose decicion was it to resign from Momusu? From the information given to us, I'd say Mari's.
but anyway. the new group. Nochiura Natsumi needs to do something new. Without Rika.
I miss you both so very much.

Every artist that ever had something else to do (Had a child, got married, etc) should give up on performing, totally and completely. They own it to their fans to either wholly sell themselves, or just get out of the way--nothing in between.
Shiina Ringo had a baby. You know how much time it took her away from music? Psh, she's hurting her fans! Utada Hikaru's wasting time with college instead of singing for us, and don't get me started on British entertainers like R.K Rowling who took time out because she happened to have discovered boys. Preposterous! "-_-
Assuming just because someone does something, even something they like, and never complains about what it costs them is kind of idealistic. Gymnasts get upset they don't get to see their friends, swimmers get tired from having to wake up so early, movie stars from having to fly away and work instead of spending time with their family. Does it make them bad people for it?
Mari's an interesting choice, as she's kind of a counter point to the people you brought up. She wanted out of the Musume, but didn't want to just quit show business. Just step a bit out of the spotlight and have her own life, yet still get to sing.
It's just kinda sad that fans fault them for wanting to do that.

is that really what you call it? blue? i want to use that more often now. i apologize for getting off topic.a little blue here.

my words have been very much twisted. i suppose it's my fault for being a bad writer.
also: isn't momusu's next single coming out in October sometime? why doesn't Tsunku give DEF DIVA it's own little.... area? or would people be more willing to buy the single if it was near one of Momusu's? ??? maybe?
I miss you both so very much.

I totally think so too! This new unit is going to be dynamite! And about ppl being more willing to buy the DIVA's new single if it were closer to momusu's release: I don't think so... It would probably be the other way around. Meaning that the pr for DIVA might suffer if their realease were too close to momusu's.why doesn't Tsunku give DEF DIVA it's own little.... area?
