Ooo, that is a nice one. It'll be fun to see what the older groups (+ Reina and Sayumi) say since they've had the chance to wear so many.

Morning Musume。: 41,029 (Maji de Sukasuka!) + 40,778 (Only you) + 55,643 (Kono Chikyuu no Heiwa wo Honki de Negatterun da yo! / Kare to Issho ni Omise ga Shitai!) = 137,450
Berryz Koubou: 24,065 (Heroine ni Narou ka!) + 20,100 (Ai no Dangan) + 17,643 (Aa、Yo ga Akeru) = 61,808
℃-ute: 23,925 (Kiss me Aishiteru) + 23,961 (Momoiro Sparkling) + 19,830 (Sekai Ichi HAPPY na Onna no Ko) = 67,716

So basically, everyone's selling better than they did last year. Except for Berryz, S/mileage and Buono!, but those groups released more singles in 2011 than they have so far in 2012, so that doesn't really count.

Kudo knew her Mama and Papa liked Morning Musume before she was born.

Kudo parents gave her a lot of old MM cds, except Ai no Tane, which she found out its her papa's most treasured CD. her papa probably was a wota himself.

[SaebaRyo]

Wotas are saying this is Sakura's father Oda Akira (小田哲).

http://www.townnews.co.jp/0403/2008/04/18/25996.html
He's running for Mayor of Zama in Kanagawa Pref. He lost the previous 2 times he ran.

A photo from his high school days.


For comparison the only non-smiling image of Sakura I could find.

[Sohee]

omg. That seems totally legit... I mean. I can totally see it. o_o

[Zunu]

What does he do when he's not unsuccessfully running for Mayor, I wonder?

[Mirai]

I totally see it too!

[SaebaRyo]

Assuming the dude is her father (which seems to be the case) here are some videos of him from the last election campaign in 2008 and his son(?) Taishi.

There is also his blog from his first election in 2004.

The next election will be in a week or so. Maybe third time is the charm.
