This feels really sudden, especially after they just added NMB!! I guess considering how much exposure NMB is getting, I guess it makes sense somehow. If there are a bunch of awesome girls like Shiichan, Nattsumii, Mariko-sama, Sasshi, Umechan, Yukirin, etc. still undiscovered in Kyushuu I guess this will bring them to our attention.
I wonder if some girls from Okinawa will make it to the auditions. Seems a longshot though due to the travel and b/c Okinawa already has that school that produced SPEED, Amuro, etc.
