DON'T JINX IT

taylorniw

Nah they'd do it post announcement. Makes it more valuable.

Nobody is calling anybody a hater. Saying let "haters hate and complainers complain" is a figure of speech. Please familiarize yourself with that idea.

Obsidian: any place on the Internet where harowotas congregate (twitter, tumblr, facebook, younameit)

Obsidian

I congregate in lots of those places. XD I still haven't seen it.

Dalvron'20

Ah yes, I MISREAD!!! Forget everything I said and I'll go crawl in a corner so I listen to the actual song.

Moondoggie

Of the three songs it's the one I can listen to the most.

Mizura

I like Ai no Tame a lot. Its definitely not the best song, but its interesting and a bit different.

DomScatterbrain

I think she tried something new there for J=J

KawaiiLand

With different camera view angle in MV it will be great

ShiningLight445

She's great at rapping though :)

Gabby

Yeah and she's still not the worst singer in the group ><

In Japan in particular, as well, a male and a female close in age seen alone together implies a romantic relationship. But since there was never any confirmation either way, we're all free to believe whatever we want.

Moondoggie

You have Saudi Arabia backwards women can't be in public without a male escort just as they can't drive a car they need to be driven by a male.

Moondoggie

Also Japanese couples tend to not always be very intimate in public. Public displays of affection are somewhat frowned upon so just because they are not holding hands or sucking face doesn't mean they don't do that in private. Also Japanese tend to do things in packs. A male and female all alone implies a few things.

I think they need to work on their dance, I wish they had better formations and faster moves like Gfriend the kpop group. Look at their song Rough and you'll have an idea of what I mean.

hpnewb

I agree, I gave up on MM's music several singles ago.

bloop7676

Yeah, it doesn't really seem right that the main group is the one that gets stuck with a specific theme. If they wanted a "cool EDM group", that's exactly the kind of thing they could've made a new unit for. I think on some level though, H!P is more interested in their other groups right now, so they do all their interesting work with them and give MM the same old stuff that will bring in enough sales to keep them happy.

hpnewb

It's because HP lied several times back in the day about grads.

Juandalyn

Where's the fun in accepting it?

Zabieru

I'm sure she's being genuine but I still wish she'd stay! I'm happier when they're happier, though.

Moondoggie

In all fairness the Japanese fans were predicting it also during that era it was really dark times. They were also really annoyed with the fact they dared allow foreigners in Morning Musume. If that gamble of making huge changes and rebooting Morning Musume didn't work they would have been screwed.

Zabieru

Everyone just wants to find a reason to complain! Create a situation where there is none, make things a bit more interesting for themselves.

wahodes

I think it's only because MM is going through a transformation with Riho gone..people are curious or worried about the direction of the group. It's natural plus we don't have a lot of insight as foreign fans and so people make a lot of guesses. But also It's silly to get overly worried/negative about it (tbh tho 2ch can be just as bad about negativity they're all like H!P is done for with tsunku goneeee waaughghghghgh).

taskinist

i've secretly wanted naapon back in GEM this whole time lol

Nowhere Man

Honestly though, I'm kinda thinking "reestructuring" could have a different meaning from what we all are guessing; I mean, if it's how we imagine, then the shuffle would involve SUPER GIRLS as well..

Nowhere Man

...and SUPER GIRLS is a well-established group in the conscience of the idol scene in Japan.. imagine one of them suddenly getting thrust into GEM or Chikipa, or the opposite... that'd be weird af tbh

Moondoggie

If they live all their dreams doing this job then they just need to keep doing their best.

Nowhere Man

I was just saying "if they wanted to", not that they "should"; gee~calm down

..remove opportunities. If slim again, reward with better positions and opportunities. If too skinny, remove opportunities. Etc. This is up to the girls as a whole. Management only intervenes if it goes too far, but then it is too late. It should've been stopped earlier.

michikodesu

Sure, I'll agree.......coming from one snarky member to another. And I was "absurdly" thin when I was in high school. I barely weighed 95 pounds and I started as a 9th grader at 5'5 and shot up to 5'7 in a little over a year. And I was told that I had and eating disorder. I was told that I needed to eat....etc. Same comments that I see up here about Yoshi and others who fans think are "too skinny".

michikodesu

It's not "who cares"? If you can get to the bottom of it, then you can help the best way possible. But here's the question.....what are we to do about it? Because, and this goes for fans as well, no one has mentioned anything until it is "too late". Why didn't any fan spot it earlier?

michikodesu

No, No...I'm an old fart too and I agree. It does sound like RPG BGM... although, because of the lyrics and certain parts in the song, I can see ENDLESS SKY as a perfect ending song to some Magical Girl Anime.

LoveRice

I TOLD Y'ALL

sukibeam

No joke. One single without EDM and already people are proclaiming the end of EDM Era.

beyooooonk

I don't think the EDM era is over per se, but the Colorful Era definitely ends with Riho's graduation.

NightOfFire’21

She's not the only one of course. But the most prominent one, and the one with the highest performance level? Definitely.

Nowhere Man

Yeah, that's true. But (at least) Sakura, Maachan and Fuku can also hold their own when it comes to singing imo

Nowhere Man

Not to mention that Ayumi is a better dancer than Riho, but that's more personal
