    I know Minami isn’t a favorite and that management really sucks but this will be her last single right? Damn I had low expectations and somehow was still let down.

    I didn't expect a Miichan centre (although I would have loved it – I see why a Miichan centre would have felt like a risky move), so I'm just happy she's part of Senbatsu. Isn't this her first one since 11gatsu no Anklet? I do hope for a graduation song as a B-side though

    Glad to see Homma finally getting the push instead of Ogino and Rika(why?).

    Shame it has to come off the foot of the whole Maho thing.

    More relevantly than which flavour of the month girl is centre, Minegishi is back in a senbatsu for the first time since fahking 2017, alas, for the last time but still. . . it's the bloody least they could do for her after putting 14 years of her life into this group. The bare minimum, and she deserved better. She always deserved a hell of a lot better. Bloody original and best variety queen right there.

    I would've wanted a Miichan center but I'm really really happy for Zukki! I do hope that Miichan at least gets a graduation song. I'm surprised they didn't capitalize on this and called the OGs back lol

    Knowing Miichan, I'm sure she didn't want the center and wanted the center to be one of the young girls. I'm just glad she's in senbatsu one last time (and joins Yukirin as the only 2 girls who have made senbatsu appearances in 3 decades).

    Senbatsu Appearances Milestones
    • Yukirin now ties the most Senbatsu Appearances with 46.
    • Miichan's 40th and Final Senbatsu Appearance (6th Member to join the 40 Senbatsu Appearance Club)
    • Yuihan's 35th Senbatsu Appearance
    • Tomu and YuiYui's 10th Senbatsu Appearance

    A Miichan center in 2020? lol

    She's the last 1st gen and all that, but apart from recognition from the GP (for the wrong reasons, mostly) she isn't that popular looking at her HS sales.
    I'm happy she's in senbatsu though. And I'm sure she'll be the one to do all the talk during TV shows and whatnot, so it's not just about the position.
    Also, she'll probably be first line or in some Yukirin-type position.

    Leave LOONA out of this!

    I'm glad Minegishi isn't center

    and I'm glad Zukkii IS center

    better to look to the future than the past.

    I don't think she will. I think the group is more than just an after school activity for Zukkii. Plus she's one of Okada Nana and Murayama Yuiri's children so they'll look after her and won't let her quit lol.

    I know that there is no confirmation that Ogiyuka and Rika were involved in the NGT/Mahohon scandal, and they may not have been, but I do think they lost credibility and/or popularity with the whole thing. Ogiyuka was chosen as a model for some brand (don't remember which) a few months after the scandal was made public, and people were telling the people to take Ogiyuka off (and they did). I think things have definitely calmed down, but Hinata is a safer choice.

    It'll feel like they do it for every occasion. They've brought back graduated members for Kimi wa Melody, Kibouteki Refrain, Tabi no Tochuu and probably other songs I can't think of right now. I'm okay waiting for another bring-back-graduates for the 20 Year Anniversary or the 10 Year Anniversary of 12th Gen (lol the last one is biased cause of Tano-chan).

    Ending my lurk and creating an account here just so I have somewhere to rave about Seichan making senbatsu. Was on the train during the announcement and I had to restrain myself from cheering out loud when she was announced
