I think Up-Front, H!P, the girls themselves and the wota are completely over this kind of stuff. Girls are growing up and they have to live a life. We're not in the 60's, 70's or 80's. Idol-ing is not the same. H!P tried hard to manage it with the old school rules, but 21st Century rules overwhelmed them. That's why Idoling or AKB48 are doing worse than H!P, because they are so mini-skirt, cute looking stuff, old school themed, that they only appeal to a few. The 30K/60K that H!P groups currently manage to sell is because they appeal to a major audience, mixing wota and non wota. The most conservative wota already left to groups like AKB or Idoling, so I don't think Up-Front takes any move with Kanna at all. Miyabi was kissing his boyfriend kind of tipsy abnd nothing happened. Kanna is simply holding hands. Like the article says, it's the less scandalous scandal. In fact, how cute JE juniors and H!P kids get together.. lol
