I wish I could agree or disagree with you in some of these categories, but seeing as how when I got into this fandom (by way of Hana wo Pu~n) and only paid attention to Morning Musume, I feel unqualified to even suggest anything… Man, I wish I was more conscious of H!P in ’07.
But, I can say this! I think that Maeda Yuki should’ve come in first! :(
Miss ya! ^____^
