Not every group needs to be ever-lasting with a revolving door.

Will be waiting to see what happens with the group(s) to succeed °C-ute.

^ this.

As for J=J "stagnating"... kind of happens when management only gives you new releases every 6-8 months for a couple years. With them supposedly deemed as C-ute's successor though, perhaps their production will increase. Still, I hope they remain a static lineup.

I wrote a big thing about placements on the other forum, and ultimately I feel like Country Girls would be a good place for all of them (though, all 3 being put in the same group seems unlikely). If a new unit is made, more KSS would need to be added, but after some consideration I hope this isn't the route management goes. I'd rather H!P focus on promoting what they have rather than spreading their resources even thinner with another unit. I want more material from each group (and regularly released albums again plz), and with their obviously small pool of lyricists/composers I feel like all the groups would suffer. There's a cycle of intensely focusing on one or two groups per year, and I'd rather not have to wait 4 years for it to be Dan-chan's turn again.

Man, I feel like this year's test had a higher talent average than in previous years. I'm very interested in the Kurumi/Momohime thing as those were the two I was most interested in KSS wise. They're also two of the most charismatic members of the KSS right now (Ruru and Ayano being the other two that come to mind immediately to me). I just hope whatever it is doesn't meant that they won't get to debut in a group eventually or that if they're debuted in something else it means that they don't get to really shine in the public eye.

^ Those are the same things I'm curious about. It'll be a little bit of a disappointment if it really is just a theater/acting debut unconnected to anything else. In that scenario they become pretty inaccessible to fans not living in Japan after debut. (Though people would still be happy for them, I'm sure.)
