Literally my thought when I watched that. I was expecting Airi to really outpace Mao, but damn, Mao held her own! I also hadn't known Mao could sign, if I closed my eyes I would have thought some of Mao's lines were Airi's. I had thought they'd picked this song for the dance routine for Mao, but now I suspect it was because Mao's voice fit the song perfectly and Airi can sing most anything and was probably happy to do such an iconic H!P song.
EDIT: Also watching MM's performance at ANGERME's Premium I noticed that Brand New Morning has a dance team now. (Masaki, Haachin, Maria and... Ayumi?) I wonder if that's for the flags during their concert performance, or just something they decided. Also, loved the performance of Koi Nara. Super surprised to see that Akane got a small solo near the end of that (and what a show of how many strong or stable singers are in MM right now.)
