This thread is kinda dead, thought of posting this video from Mouse Computer: if the video does not show watch the video here Really cute moment at the beginning when Momo's ears bump into Asuka's. I know Momoko isn't as popular as Yoda or Zukki but I'm hoping she'll move up to second row for the next single. I think her energy is perfect for Nogi's summer singles, and I'd really like to see her in the front row but who knows (I don't think she'll get to center any time soon).
Yeah she truly deserves second row at least. Better if she can be in the center of 2nd row, it's nice to be shadow center.
If we look back on 22nd single She could have been centre in 2nd row if Waka didn't grad. Momoko isn't that popular early on but lately she's selling out her slot in the 2nd rd at the same pace as powerhouse like Mizuki . Hoshino. Yoda . Minamin. Kubo and Miona. My only wish is for her to be permanent Fukujin.
I'm happy seeing her growth in Nogizaka. She grew up so fast from a crybaby girl who very nervous to talk to be someone who could be relied upon.
More than about deserving it, I think Momoko should return to prominent positions because she (and thus Nogi) can benefit from it. She has a future and wonderful growth potential with exposure. Some members in front might be more popular and "deserve" it more, but among them are some who can't gain as much as idols from the position as someone fresh and rising as Momoko.
There are only a few members more popular than her ; and those members are already getting jobs . It's about time Momoko gets her due. The growth of this girl is incredible. Management dubbed her as " Raw gem stone" .
Momoko will be guest in a variety show Previously attended by her senpai Kazumin. It seems that her confidence is increasing day by day .
Yes, became a regular radio host and appeared in a lot of programs, show us that her confidence increased drastically. Usually, Manatsu and Kazumin was always with her. But now she's brave to appear alone. She will also be invited to the new TV Asahi show "Dotchi" on April 12. https://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/dotchi/
she just need to stay low for a while. she probably end up in midtier/topttier senbatsu like eto misa. although i dont have anything agaisnt her if she get the mega push again.
The way I see it she's just below Yoda and Zukki in terms of 3rd gen. And she's a good performer. Plus I don't understand why people still hold her initial behavior against her when she's clearly changed and can handle pressure better now.
Momoko is at the same tier as Kubo and Minamin in terms of popularity. Yoda and Yamashita are slightly ahead of them .
Surprisingly, as original center of her generation she is not that hated. She was get quite bash at first but right now not really. Thanks to rotating center among 3rd gen. And time already proof that she is not faking her chara. She is pure and has "girl that you want protected" aura same as Yoda, the type that favored by majority of Nogi fans. Mizuki, Minamin, and Kubo-chan have more antis. Antis calling out Mizuki for her fisher and 48-like idol, Minamin for her unofficial role as 2nd Maiyan, Kubo for weight issue.
I agree; In the beginning they hated her for being airdropped but currenty Japanese Nogi fans in general loves cherish her. I mean ; the only ones Hating her prominently were International fans here in this forum.
