The Hello!Blog Poll

 

Wow. This was a very difficult ranking, actually, but I enjoyed it a lot because I’ll miss the elder club like crazy and I’m glad I could vote for them. After they are gone, my H!P fandom will be greatly decreased, I think. Which I also find funny, because when ranking the members there was no doubt in my mind that Wonderful Hearts would take the first spots, and the Elder Club’s releases I don’t really like that much at all to begin with, so why do I feel like when they leave I’ll be a sad wota? I don’t really know, but that’s maybe a question for a different entry. Right now I’m going to do a brief analysis on why each girl holds the position they are in.

10. Suzuki Airi: Airi reminds me a lot of AKB’s Watanabe Mayu, and since Mayu has grown on me a lot, I think Airi has done so too XD I still don’t like C-ute, and I don’t think I ever will, but Airi is simply adorable. She’s a great performer and she’s super cute. Buono also helped A LOT for her to pop up in my top 10, despite my dislike of her unit.

9. Michishige Sayumi: Words can’t express how much I adore Sayu. She’s all I’d like to be if I were an idol (minus a good voice XD) I love how she’s vain and egocentric but still manages to be caring and helpful to the other members, I love her honesty and most of all, I love her sense of humor. She’s just hilarious when she makes jokes about herself, proving that she doesn’t really take it all that seriously and that she’s a great sport. Eri should be sharing this spot with her XD They’re inseparable in my mind.

8. Matsuura Aya: Say what you may, I hate Ayaya’s new releases as much as anyone else, but she’s a freaking STAR and you can’t deny it. She’s got an amazing voice with great range and control, she’s a great performer and she’s also the best MC of H!P’s history. Ayaya is truly one of a kind when it comes to idols, and in my mind she was the image of what H!P always was about. Not anymore, of course, but still, her talent is overwhelming.

7. Fujimoto Miki: I’m not all “Miki-sama punish me” like a lot of other people, but I love my Mikitty very much! She’s a perfect Tsundere, and while my favorite moments of her involved Aya, she was incredible as an idol in her own right. I’m guessing that after she gets married she’ll just quit show business, but I enjoyed her a lot while she was at it. Also, I’d loved if she had never been part of Momusu but grown as a soloist instead, and she would’ve enjoyed it much more as well But now it’s not the right time to mourn about such thing. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR WEDDING MIKITTY!!! Everyone is getting married… I’m feeling old lately because of this XD

6. Tsuji Nozomi: LOL I was never a fan of Nono when she was part of H!P, I thought that she was cute and funny, but I honestly saw her always as the lesser half of Aibon, whom I adored. But after she left and married Ultraman and started that blog, I fell in love with her, so to speak. I read all of her entries, I want to cheer for her and send her all my love, and I’m really happy to see that she’s happy with the life she has now. I wish I could become a pretty bride too, but that’s a stupid dream I know So she’s my hero right now XD

5. Yaguchi Mari: Mari was always my favorite MM member, when she was kicked out I freaked out majorly. I don’t get giddy over her blog as I do with Nono’s but she’s still a very fun person to read and interesting too. She’s proven to be more entertaining than almost all of the Wonderful Hearts line up together, and that’s very important. Also, she’s a hard worker, and I admire her for that.

4. Shibata Ayumi: Ayu <3 She’s my melon of choice. I adore her group with all my heart, and even though everyone says that she doesn’t fit in with their cool image and that her voice isn’t as good as Masae’s, I have a soft spot for her. First of all, I find her the most beautiful girl in H!P, I love her chipmunk teeth (see, Oshima Yuko, my favorite AKB girl has chipmunk teeth too. It’s a fetish!) and I love her carefree and clueless attitude. That Hello Pro Hour episode with her and Sayu is still my favorite ever. 

3. Natsuyaki Miyabi: I have no idea of how Miya ended up this high, as I’m not particularly fond of her or anything, but I just think that she has lots of style and a great voice. And that largely makes an idol for me. Sure, having a big flamboyant personality helps a lot, but when it comes down to performing, that’s what they should excel at. That’s why I don’t hate on Aichan either BTW. Buono skyrocketed Miya to the top 3.

2. Kumai Yurina: My Yurina. I adore this girl, you have no idea. She has the power of making me happy instantly whenever I see her, and that’s why I’ll never stop adoring her. You can say that she’s an airheaded bad singer but I don’t care at all, she’s the most amazing kid ever in my eyes, and that will never change.

1. Niigaki Risa: I’m not as crazy about Risa as I used to be, but I still look for her avidly in any H!P concert. She never disappoints and always puts up a great show. I also love how she’s become a gorgeous girl and the driving force behind MM when she started out as that awkward pig tailed kid. Gaki is my favorite because she represents that dreams can actually come true, and that you can live them too, if you work hard for them. 

That was interesting! With that out of my system, I have to say that I want a new Yurina PB. Her PB was the best H!P has ever produced, and I won’t be told otherwise!
