WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~ Here we go!!!
1. Niigaki Risa. Hands down.
How can you say no to this girl?! She's hands down the strongest vocals, when not even trying I can tell if it's her voice or not. Her dancing is hands down beautiful and smooth. Personality is too amazing to even say no to, She's going to be the BEST leader Morning Musume ever had. Ever since she joined she hasn't changed. She matured and grew, but she still is the same. Nothing or anyone beats how wonderful Gaki-san is ♥ Not to mention, Her smile is just drool worthy!
2. Suzuki Kanon
Zukki! Yes, I choose the youngest current musume member! Suzuki Kanon! When I first saw Kyuukie auditions I liked her a lot then I started paying more and more attention to her and her character is just so funny there is like no way I can't love her. I'm also breath taken by her smile.
3. Michishige Sayumi
Everyone may dislike her but I actually for one love this girl. She isn't the best singer or dancer, but she always gives 200%. Her love for Morning Musume also wins my heart. Even though she always does the whole "I'm the cutest" on TV I learned from her blog and other stuff that she really is a good girl who lacks confidence. But regardless, I love Sayumin~ I can't wait for GakiShige leadership.
4. Tanaka Reina
Even though she is a line whore I still like Reina. I mean I hate that she's always lead, but I can't help but like her. After watching Bijou Gaku, HelloPro time, DVD magz, Alo halo, and etc. I can't help but like her, y'know? She does all these things that make me go "awwwwW!~"
5. Ikuta Erina
I admit, when she was first added I really didn't like her much. I guess cause I knew she was a AKB fan. During the audition I thought her voice was really bad, but she proved me wrong. After training really hard she climbed up to a high spot in my ranks. She gives her BEST and even more in her dancing and singing. She isn't the best at it but it shows how hard she is willing to work for her fans and that is something I really like. I can't help but also love her KY chara~ I'm going to be cheering on for Eripon ♥
6. Fukumura Mizuki
Fuku-hime! At first I didn't care about her much but then after I started paying attention to her I fell into her trance. It's expected from an egg, her singing is outstanding and her dancing is just smooth and beautiful. She has this shy type character and I find it really adorable. I love the PONPON combi, they're so cute~ and I hope to hear more of Fuku-hime cause out of ALL the 9th gen Fuku-chan has the best vocals. I say the truth, coming from a Zukki fan~ ♥ Fuku-hime has the most potential and deserves to be a lead.
7. Sayashi Riho
Yasshi. She was my most favorite 9th gen during the auditions. I really wanted her in so bad, I'm glad she is in but she has too much attention. I love Yasshi, her dancing is suburb and her personality is really cute. But her voice isn't ready to lead. She has problems with high notes and she can work on a lot of other vocal things. I just found it unfair that Yasshi was pushed to the top while leaving the other kyuukies. I know it isn't her fault, but I believe she shouldn't be a lead singer right now. This is why she is low on my rankings. I really do love Yasshi and I won't lie about her dancing but being pushed to the front so quickly just isn't fair, especially to Fuku-chan who has better vocal ability than RihoRiho.
8. Mitsui Aika
Hard to believe Aika used to be my second favorite. xD I don't know after awhile I just slowly started thinking that she could be a lot better. Her voice is good but it needs work. I admit she gives it her all in dancing but it's hard to pay attention to her when everyone surrounding her is outshining her. I believe she can be really good, but she has to work harder.
9. Takahashi Ai
Now. I might get bashed like crazy, but yes. My least favorite is the current leader Takahashi Ai. FYI this MY rankings and MY opinion. The reason I'm not a big fan of Ai is because after awhile she started trying too hard. Like her dancing is really good, but it looks forced. Her voice is really good but she forces it to be something that isn't natural. People won't agree with my observations, but this is what I have concluded with. I admit she is really good all around but after awhile it got tiring to see her. She doesn't catch my attention, it's more like "Oh again?" type of thing.
THIS IS MY OPINION. If you don't agree with me then okay. But don't go bashing my and flaming me when it's my own opinion. It's pointless trying to convince me that I should change my ranking because these are the people I like and nothing will make me change it.
