Thaatt''swhat it's looking like so far... Miki and H2O are fighting for dominance right now. Ugh, this shows how much I love the girls, Mizuki and above are girls I buy goods for regularly because I like them so much.

New S/mileage ranking predictions:
1. Mizuki Murota
2. Rikako Sasaki
3. Meimi Tamura
4. Ayaka Wada
5. Maho Aikawa
6. Kana Nakanishi
7. Kanon Fukuda
8. Akari Takeuchi
9. Rina Katsuta

Easier. I'm 90% sure this is going to be the case. The three new girls have made me very interested in Smileage

MM Ranking
1. Ayumi
2. Sakura
3. Riho
4. Mizuki
5. Haruka
6. Masaki
7. Haruna
8. Sayumi
9. Kanon
10. Eripon
11. Maria/Akane/Oharu/Miki

The first four are pretty much equal. The exact order changes all the time, depending on what I've watched recently. I just watched a couple DVD magazines, so I'm really into Ayumi right now because I'm drawn to her personality the most. I also love her energizer bunny stage presence, and I actually like her singing a lot in certain songs. Her control still isn't the greatest and I never want to hear her sing a ballad or anything like that, but I LOVE how she sounds in songs like HDYLJ. So cool. *__*

Haruka's not too far away from the top four. She could be on the same level in maybe or year or two. Her expressions have really improved, but her singing and dancing still need a lot of work. I'm not sure if I'll ever be a big fan of her dancing (it's just not the kind of dancing that I like), but when she's comfortable/not nervous, she can sing well, really nailing some lines/songs. So I'm looking forward to how she'll improve in the next few years. I was thinking that her singing reminds me a lot of Eri's when she was younger (mostly rather bland and a bit unstable with noticeable issues with rhythm/timing).

I like Masaki and Haruna even more after hearing about how they were in NY, like all the cute stuff Masaki did and how friendly and responsive Haruna was at the handshake event.

All of 12th gen is tied. I like all of them a lot, but I'm just not sure who'll come out on top. Oharu would have been my clear favorite if she was more talented because she just really appeals to me for some reason. So if her singing improves dramatically, she'll probably be my number one of this generation.

I think? Tomoko and Ayumi are pretty much tied. I have no idea about Heike and Ruru, but I... I know they're up there, at least. Ogata may or may not end up on that list.

^ I was surprised that Maasa is tenth on your list, but then I noticed that she's the only Berryz.

I still love Maasa a lot. Honestly there's not that much of a gap between Tomoko and Maasa. My top 3 are like, on a whole different level though.
