Aww... I was hoping to go a perfect 3/3 on my picks, but 2/3 isn't bad... even though they cut my favorite out of the three picks. I hope we get to see the TV broadcast of the final round that airs on the 19th. I'm kind of curious to see why they cut Noriko. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with the 4th generation members. There were some of those girls that I'm glad they cut... Some of them were kind of annoying right off the bat.
Here's their new Idoling!!! numbers:
#22 Ruka Kurata
#23 Yuuna Itou
#24 Manami Nomoto
#25 Kaoru Gotou
#26 Chika Ojima
I'm not quite sure how they picked those numbers, but that's what's on the Idoling!!! Web site. According to the Fuji TV On Demand Web site, the last episode of Idoling!!! in March is on the 18th. The show will be on break until April 1, which is probably when the 4th generation members will make their first appearances. I'm hoping that the show gets a presentation overhaul as well. They used Bang! Ready to Go (and a variation of it) from 2006 to 2008, and Uchuu Elevator has been in use for roughly the same amount of time. I mean, I like Uchuu Elevator, but I think it's time for the show to get a "new coat of paint" with a new set, new graphics, and new music.
