And the epic-ness of 2011 continues!

I hope Karin, Haruna, and/or Nanami get in!
But then again I think I'd prefer them in their own epic trio unit.

Wonder if additional members will make the group's average age less than C-ute's...
By my rough calculation, they'd only need one member age 15 or younger to do that once Ai-chan graduates.
Amazing.

Oh wow :/

Probably means that more of the older members are set to graduate soon-ish? Time for a whole new MoMusu... again! Uuuugh, why am I in this fandom again? XD

Oh my goodness. 9th gen to be senpai after less than a year?! What a shock!

I just hope Tsunku chooses wisely. He did well with 9th gen, but here's another batch to choose! :O

Aaaah, I haven't even had time to get to know/get used to 9th gen yet!

I really, really hope this DOES mean giant Momusu like back when 6th gen joined. That was my favorite era and it was a lot more fun, imo. <3

YEAH THINKING ABOUT IT. HUGE MOMUSU AND ACCOMPANYING WEEKLY TV SHOW WHERE THEY CAN RUN WILD. YES PLEASE, DO WANT! Anything else will be a bit of a let down D: but only because I haven't had the time to fully digest the last audition and the upcoming graduation.

You know, I seem to recall Tsunku saying he wouldn't let Momusu get above ten members again. Has he changed his mind? Is he just going to have a mass graduation for the older members next? Will he only choose one? Is he already planning the next graduation after Ai's? Are they going to join this year?!

 :panic: :panic:

So many questions! So many uncertainties!!

I think possibly niigaki will graduate next year...it is a good decision since it will let the new generation have some time with the person graduating rather than graduating the older girls and adding the new ones after.  I really look forward to gen 10, I usually love even gens

Hmm, not surprised, I was expecting another generation soon.
but I'm not ready for my 9th gen to be overshadowed.

^ Well they won't necessarily be overshadowed :D I mean, 4th gen wasn't overshadowed when 5th gen joined...
Heck, maybe this audition is because they are *pleased* with 9th gen and believe they will be able to stand out on their own even this soon o-o

Hurrdihurr. I dunno I'll just possibly ignore this whole audition until I have some faces to chew on, like "OH! I forgot this was on!" lol

When I first read this I truly thought it was just a 2ch rumor but then it turned out to be true and I was like,  :shocked
It seems Tsunku is very desperate to raise MM to the top again. I just really hope Morning Musume won't end up becoming crappy.

I can't help but notice the pattern...

First leader: Nakazawa; leader for many years
Second Leader: would have been Ishiguro; except she left suddenly under suspicious circumstances and turned out to be pregnant
"Third" Leader (I'm keeping Ishiguro in the list, bear with me): Iida; successful leader for many years
Fourth Leader: Yaguchi; left abruptly shortly after becoming leader due to a scandal
Fifth Leader: Yoshizawa; successful leader for many years
Sixth Leader: Fujimoto; left shortly after taking control due to a scandal.  Currently, the shortest term as leader
Seventh Leader: Takahashi; successful leader for many years
Eighth Leader: Niigaki; ???

Just throwing this out there.
