    No one's posted here yet! It's a shame because Yamarina has caught my eye recently in the LODs I've been watching. I like the sharpness of her dancing and I think she's a good performer. Probably my favourite 4th gen girl I think. I hope she gets more exposure because I really like what I've seen of her and I want to see her succeed :)

    Yamarina (like Takei Sara, team M draft member) took all 4 NMB auditions except that she passed the 4th one. She used to be a gachi-wota of Nana, going so far as to creating her own Virginity outfit and going to a picture event dressed in it.

    Oh my god that's adorable. It's a pretty good Virginity outfit, I can't believe she made it herself haha. I'm glad she's finally able to live her dream :) Hoping she succeeds and gets promoted because I really like her.

    I've started to notice her a lot because she's soooooooooooooooooooo tiny. :D I like her under for Kataomoi wa Taisakusen, though it makes me sad because when she unders she doesn't get a lot of pop.

    Apparently she's only 147cm, which translates to around 4'10" for us Americans.

    She's also known for being loud at handshake events (you can hear when you're 4 lanes away) and for making cookies for the other members.

    Yamarina is great, I've become a big fan of hers. I'm not surprised to hear about the handshake thing, but it was actually one of her cookie posts on g+ that made me take notice of her. She had made shooting star, moon, and unicorn shaped cookies, but her dad thought the unicorns were elephants, so she gave her dad a -1.

    I suppose it's not much, but it made me laugh quite a bit. :D

    I also enjoy watching her perform even if she can be a bit hard to find at times. Aside from who "deserves it" and whatnot, I'm hoping she can get a swift promotion so she can start showing up on various shows to see more of her. It's good she's moved up the ranks in Akagumi as well. :)

    Here's Yamarina's Senkyo Appeal vid translated:


    Yamarina actually wore this dress in the picture event last week.

    Discussed a bit in the Saka Agari thread, but still kind of a prevailing thought overall just how small Yamarina is and how noticeable it is that she is so small, but in watching her and Lemon duke it out in a game of musical chairs, I can't help but wonder why it is Yamarina stands out so much more on stage due to her height than Miorin does.

    I don't know if this is just something I notice as I'm just generally watching for Yamarina more when she's performing, but it doesn't feel like Miorin's height deficiency is as noticeable. I just skimmed through the recent stage and nothing really stood out to me when looking for Lemon. Well, besides them sharing a row with Ayatein and Koko-chan during Ibiza Girl...that was pretty noticeable. :p

    Wonder if it's in their builds. Or maybe we're just so used to Miorin...

    Yamarina also learned a position in a week. Someone needs to give her a medal or something.

    Miorin has a small face so it matches her small stature whereas Yamarina's isn't as tiny. It also appears that Miorin has longer limbs.

    It's funny, lately I think Yamarina has a skillset that matches Nana, from a distinctive voice to the vocal/dance talent to the leadership quality to the small stature... I guess her Nana-oshi is showing. But at the same time, it's hard to make a name for yourself when you're almost like another member who is established and experienced.

    I don't really mind which team she is promoted to as long as she is promoted but
    since I'm a fan of BII I'd love her there.

    I'd like her in BII as well. I really liked how the team looked performing with her.

    Plus, if they want to do that whole Miorina thing, it would be easier with them on the same team, I guess. I'd say they could give them a unit, but like BII is getting an original stage in the next five years.

    She and the other KKS got a little lost in the recent M stage...I hope she gets more chances to perform there because I really think it would help her improve and be able to grow up into Team M.

    I wish they would hurry up and make me to current KKS a real team because Yamarina recently turned 19 and Maichi isn't getting any younger and they're beyond more that ready at this point.

    Still can't believe she's 19 but her seitansai was awesome ! The fans was so hyped(really hyped) during the whole stage and it made me really excited. Nana's letter was a bit unexpected but Yamarina was really on point when Post-Nana thingy first came out. Now all that's left is to get her promoted.
