I've been going through some stuff because I've wanted to update dem egg profiles (here
http://hpegg.wordpress.com/)
But a lot of the stuff I've found so far isn't the kind that you can put there (it's too speculative, random or biased) so I'll put it here instead!! LOL
From wolfpedia, some comments I translated, with notes in
italics. So these are opinions or observations that some Japanese fans have written.
General:
Tsunku values Sawachan and Sengoku's singing power highly
Eggs that have special support from the office (based on the opportunities given to them): Ogawa Saki, Kikkawa Yuu, Fukuda Kanon, Maeda Yuuka
Ayaka - Initially Ayaka was a little girl with a dark complexion who didn't get a lot of attention. However, as she grew up, her beauty became prominent
- Like early days Nakajima Saki, she has a characteristic of (suspicious) behaviour (
I didn't really understand this one, but the word there literally meant 'suspicious behaviour' so oh well)
- At a Shinjin Kouen, she answered to the question of "what type is your dog?" with "stray dog" (
I think I've mentioned this earlier, but it's still funny so I'll post it again LOL)
Sengoku- At Ongaku Gatas concert she had refreshing new war power that quietly increased her fanbase. (
OK yes, I suck a translating)
- It is said that Sengoku's ancestors were famous in a Sengoku rebellion at Sengoku Sakyou during Edo period (
there's a long wiki entry about the rebellion in Japanese, too)
- Has twin little sisters
Sainen - this one's mean
- Because of her appearance/figure, some wolves call her "busainen" (likely to originate from 'busaiki', which means "clumsy, poor shape, homely, plain")
- She is perceived to be the rare type that during concerts seems to suddenly gain weight (
they illustrated this with a DVD cap from a concert where it looked like she had a double-chin. So basically they called her fat )
Asuna- Her face doesn't resemble her big sister (C-ute's Chisato) a lot, but her way of talking is a spitting image of her (
not really a new observation but w/e)
Ogasaki- Seems to be #1 supported Egg by the office in Shinjin Kouen etc. Even if there are more severe opinions about her, it is said that her being small but being able to sing with a stable voice while dancing makes her precious among Eggs
Nocchi- She is child-faced, so she is adaptable to "legal loli" (
At least I'm not sharing what they said about certain members' boobs. )
Manoeri (not an Egg anymore but I'll put this here till she gets her own thread)
- This beautiful girl became a topic of conversation because of success in the first shinjin kouen (
their literal words, I think they mean that her looks made her stand out)
- A star that the office has high expectations for
- Because she has similar looks to early days Goto Maki, she is sometimes called "post-gomaki"
Yuuka- Charm point is high-pitched singing voice
- There was something about her "recently growing up glamorously", but I didn't fully understand it. I know what they might mean though: she's always had this childish face but recently I see that she's grown past the 'awkward stage'. She still has a cute babyface but somehow she looks more gorgeous than before... If that makes sense, lol
Koretty (again, not an Egg but blah blah)
I feel pretty dumb but I hadn't realized this before reading the stuff in wolfpedia.
The reason why she's started to appear in H!P concerts and other idol stuff since 2005 is because of the futsal league that Gatas Brilhantes H.P. belongs to. It's for female performers, and the participation terms of the league include that the members must be active in public entertainment. So that's why Koretty couldn't continue just kicking the ball, but she had to take up other idol-y work, too. Since she's no longer an Egg, looks like she'll be only able to make concerts with Ongaku Gatas, which should be good news to us OG fans. As long as the company wants to keep Koretty in the team, they'll have to keep providing her entertainment work, too, and currently that would mean Ongaku Gatas. Whoo... And ah I do feel like an idiot for not knowing that there really was an explanation for why Koretty was suddenly pushed on concert stages!!
Sayaka- She's the tallest among H!P Eggs
- Singing power is comparatively strong, so she has been entrusted with many main parts at Shinjin Kouen
- She says that the character (Noeru) that she gives her voice to on Kirarin Revolution is a spitting image of herself
Kikkawa- According to her own words, wouldn't lose to anyone in arm-wrestling
- Fans say that she has similar looks to Murakami Megumi. Recently she wore Murakami's outfit on stage at a Shinjin Kouen, so the office is said to recognize this as well.
Kanon- Because wota highly value her official blog, she has aqcuired the nickname 'charisma blogger'
- Kanon shows talent in the pictures she publishes on her blog and self-made t-shirts. Her family does design-related work, so Kanon is influenced by the use of illustrator, photoshop, flash etc. (
Or something like that. You get the idea, right)
