Regarding OCHA NORMA:

It's been almost 3 years since the KSS Unit was formed, 1 year since additional KSS were added, 7 months since their naming, and 6.5 months since the latest two members. It's been a 4 month hype train since their impending debut was announced, and they've been performing at every H!P-related event since then as promotion. At this point, people who are going to buy the release and go to their events are already going to do so. Announcing new members of other groups will not impact that. There are two weeks for people to fawn over new members and then focus on OCHA NORMA's debut. Besides, while it seems most fans are daredemo, there are those who focus on just one group or one member and won't care either way about ON's debut.

And now Sakura Ishiyama!

[Jenksy]

[Solarbladepsy]

Oh dang! Ishiyama passed, not who I was expecting to join Juice=Juice :0000  Even better she joined fellow gen-mate, Arisawa.....that's awesome to see ^^

I'm so happy that Sakura is debuting! 

[Sugaya Risako]

happy for sakura!

now it is mm!

[Jenksy]

Im kind of really upset at Morning Musume's choice.

[Sugaya Risako]

only one new member ?

[Casidesia]

I'm happy for Sakura and the new girls.
Holding out that there may be a surprise announcement for Yulia....

Edit: HEH! What's with the thing at the end?!
...could this be the start of a new group? Holy crap PLEASE

[Sugaya Risako]

mm needs more than one new member.

[Kumi-chan]

Surprised to see only one new member for MM. 

She is really cute but I was expecting a girl who would be a great singer. She looks more into dancing. 

[Solarbladepsy]

Wait....what just was announced about the 5 KSS???

[YellowAccel]

So happy with the results. Rio has a lot of potential. She's a great dancer, speaks well and with a bit of training, will sound good. I don't think MM needs more background members or... Anything really. They already have everything that they need, this audition is purely to say "Look we lost 2 popular members but we exist" so one is fine for me. Kitario's reaction was priceless.

Glad Sakura is debuting. Not sure what to think about the new Akari yet.

For real?? Im happy about the picks but I want Mifu to debutttt!!

[Casidesia]

That looks like a great group of girls for a potential new group!

[ItsudemoAibon]

Which will lead to a debut in about two years, like Ocha Norma......
