Q: Please tell us what your motive was for becoming an idol.

They should poll non-H!P groups to see what impact Kirarin had.
There must be a whole generation of idols out there who were inspired by the show and Koharu.

Good reasons for me to hope for more cartoon work.

its probably why they had the Precure collab after so long.

i'd honestly love for more anime units its been a while since Buono. but also Lilpri wasn't that great at all...

Lilpri were for a kids show, though. Shugo Chara! was aimed at young teen girls. Kirarin was also a kids show, but I think the target demographic was slightly older than Lilpri, from memory.

CD&DL Data magazine - Morning Musume. '15 private items series continues

From the Kobushi Pocket Morning, Hirose states she auditioned for NGP! because she admired Ogawa Mana. That's nothing short of amazing. She probably liked her from Gokujou! Mecha Mote Iinchou, the anime that succeeded Kirarin Revolution on TV Tokyo.

A woman who lives in Japan and does a lot of H!P-related things (along with helping a ton of people get H!P goods), went to a cheki event where Zukki told her that she got LASIK surgery a couple of months ago.

EDIT: Nevermind, reading comprehension fail. Move along. orz

that link doesn't work.
...That's terrible, in that she had to get surgery. :c
If her eyes are better, though, then that's great.
IGNORE THIS

"Had to"? LASIK vision correction is elective surgery.

It would explain the conjunctivitis (pinkeye), though. Contaminated eye drops or maybe just poor post-surgery hygiene.
