I doubt it had to do with what they voted and more about being available tbh. We don't really know if 6ki were voted. I mean only those 2 from all possible subunits with more popular OGs out there..?

Why would there even be a voting system? If you want this group to be your flagship and celebrate the 20th anniversary properly you make sure to make it big and bring loads of old members, especially ones from the first generation. This just seems really lazy for how much of a fuzz they usually make about the old days.

I mean, this even was moslty for fun, since the fans "decided the setlist."

I expect most OG to appear in the tour.

Hmm I had forgotten those, I guess Kanna, Aika, and Manaka left me with stronger memories.

To respect the privacy of the individual and their recovery, very little knowledge is given to us fans. This leaves huge serious injuries and smaller injuries with about the same amount of information so it's understandable to be worried but is also why none of these should be lumped together.

Ogawa Makoto had a broken leg once (same for Nono) but she performed anyway (e.g. with SALT5)

I'm pretty sure that's why they're just sticking with KSS, a third audition for 13ki is too much of a hassle and takes up for too much time between C-ute's disbandment, Momoko's graduation, Tsubaki Factory's major debut and Morning Musume/Hello! Project's 20 year anniversary.

The kenshuusei do audition. They just get to skip the first round.

minaeshi

im guessing (theory) the 2016 gen kss were the finalists of the 1st audition, but they still wanted something else so he did the auditions again, didn't find it, and they're sticking with the finalists of the 1st one

Kanyon?

Kanon wasn't much of a surprise.
