Is anyone else here a fan of Hello!Project? For those who don't know what it is, H!P is a collective of female Japanese pop idols, whose main group is Morning Musume. However, it also includes soloists such as Maki Goto, and other groups such as Country Musume, who recetnly split.

My favorite H!P idols would be Ai Kago and Nozomi Tsuji. Ai Kago is the girl in my avatar by the way Smile I think they are so cute, and very silly! I love Miki Fujimoto and Aya Matsuura as well though. Miki's always so cold, which is very unusual for an idol, which I find intersting. And Aya is so cute, yet she seems a little mysterious because her best friend is Miki, which seems so odd. They recently started a group, GAM, and their new PV, "Memories" is crazy! It's just more fuel to the rumor that Miki is a lesbian. It's probably just what they were told to do, but it is interesting....

Who and what are everyone else's favorite H!P idols and songs?

Y ALO-HELLO THAR!

My favorite group right now is Berryz Koubou and my favorite girl is Saki Shimizu. Razz I do miss W, though. And GAM just makes me laugh ... I'm sure they play up the whole lesbianism thing just to mess with people's heads. "Gay Aya and Miki" indeed.

How do you like the new Morning Musume girl? Aika Mitsui?

Aika is cute! She was such an odd choice though....I'm suprised it was a one person generation. There were a lot of talented girls. But she is pretty good in "Egao YES Nude" (hehehe...that song titles always makes me laugh) Have you heard the song yet? It's pretty good. It's kinda disco-ish, and very catchy!

It sounds like an anime Laughing (then again I say all H!P songs sound like anime because the repertoire is very diverse, but built on solid songwriting principles, and you could totally set it to either an OP or ED sequence.) And yeah, Aika must have done well on the new single because I couldn't even tell when her voice came in!

There was a recent magazine photoshoot for Morning Musume and I was surprised by the ... transcendence of Aika's looks. I mean, they really took this girl-next-door type and coaxed the beauty out of her (but isn't that what being an idol is all about?) I can really see a friendly rivalry developing between her and Koharu as the "lolicon queens" of the group Razz as they're about the same age and have a complementary trade-off in skills vs. charisma.
