It's interesting, I'm not used to them not revealing real names, ages, or even faces until a while ago / yesterday. My favourite is probably Hanakawa Mei. She's just such a orthodox idol type, but I wonder how old she is
Thx for making the thread! Waiting for the anime. Ayaka used to be my favorite but now I prefer coldness of Miu.
Ah! I had wanted to make the thread! But, I am glad someone picked it up! I am still way too new at making new threads! But, anyway: I am SUPER EXCITED for this new anime project! And, I like that they are girls not within AKB this time. It just seems like a brand new "sister group" going through what AKB originally does as well!
hmm idk I'm leaning towards 22/7 more than =Love right now. Visual wise and direction wise...at least they are going to have their own anime alongside their single debut. [dead link]
