[1/23] Morning Musume's 52nd Single "Help me!!"

[Parhelion69]

Riho is the new Koharu

Fixed.

HELL NO!

Koharu didn't have the slightest hint of talent or stage presence. All she had is some great looks and a contagious smile. She was the less talented ace ever I think.

And comparing Riho to Maki:

Maki was a better singer even when she joined MM, but she didn't have much stage presence until she went her solo career, and it took a while...
Riho is already a better dancer than Maki ever was, and while I think Riho's singing is gonna get much better in the future, I don't think she can quite reach Maki's level.
Maki had a more engaging personality as well, and was very fun on variety (specially on Utaban, but to be fair, it was all the hosts doing...) While Riho is still shy on camera, she doesn't have as many opportunities though. On Kusanagi's show, though,when she ate the spicy food she was very confident. She may improve that on the future.

Riho right now, is a great choice as the ace, it was evident on all recent singles, even on Brainstorming, where she owns the perf.
She was born to be up there, on the stage.

what she lacks in vocals, she makes up for in dance...
they made the right choice pushing her as the ace

This would matter if she danced more and sang less a la Ayumi.

Dat.

PS: Starra that gif was priceless

For anyone who doesn't pay attention to the Akihabara Backstage Pass thread, Kaori Horiuchi is one of the members there.

[riversong]

Yeah, I recognized Kaori!

Riho's self described good points
I have good observation powers. I can't help but notice how Fuku-chan's skin is so soft like a marshmallow or how Ayumi's lips after putting on gloss looks so full or how Tanaka-san's nose looks perfectly like hiragana's く from the side. But recently I've been called a hentai for saying such things in daily life, frankly I'm troubled.

You mean you're not ? Sorry Rihoriho, but you could've fooled me
... and then there's the thing about giving her father underwear as a birthday present or not wearing any herself after swimming
