I too have a really sentimental attachment to Berryz. I especially loved the shows they did in the early days with W... those remain old favorites to which I return time and again. Lately I did begin to wonder somehow if their days were numbered, and I did feel that they did not give me the same spark that they used to, though I love them sincerely still for all they have done.
I don't know enough about the other activities of the individual members to know what direction the career of each could take after spring 2015. Can someone with some real understanding of their strengths maybe give us some predictions - what will each Berryz member be doing in a year's time? Will any of them be unemployed, god forbid??
And what will take their place in H!P? Or... are we seeing the beginning of the winding back of H!P, perhaps since Tsunku may continue to face health challenges?
I will remain a fierce H!P supporter till the end, and there is enough interest for me in C-ute, S/mileage and of course Momusu to keep me alive for years to come. But I hope the demise of Berryz does not mean that any of the other groups, especially C-ute, would follow soon after!
