I was laughing in maniac glee when Chisaki was announced for Momusu, but then later that day I realized it might have been a demotion for her. ...
After all, she had a pretty central spot in Country Girls and now she'll be struggling to get one line per single just because of the way Momusu is these days.
If I was an idol, I'd rather have an important role in the least popular group in H!P (I don't know how popular CG was, I'm just saying) than be a backdancer in the biggest group. >_>
It's kind of tragic. I guess we'll see what happens. It's not just that MM has a ton of members now, but line distribution has been generally crappy for a long while now. When I was watching clips from that MM concert that was broadcast on TV recently, it seemed to be 80% Oda or Fukuchan solos. So, so boring. I'd even prefer bad singing to never hearing certain members sing.
... So my rant about this ended up being a general rant about MM and not a rant about the changes, really LOL
