The Hello! Project internal ranking chart

First post updated with link to rokun's new translation:

In honour of Eri's upcoming graduation... what does she think about the other girls? For one thing, it seems like each MM girl is at least a little bit loli. It's apparently not only Reina that is into Ogawa Saki!

Q1: Members: Kumai Yurina Unit: Turtle and Bear
I'm relatively easygoing, but Kuma-san is also calm and
settled and never in a hurry. Because of that, since I
really like Kuma-san's pace, if we formed a unit I think
we'd get along well. As for the unit name, I used the
animal-connected first characters in our names.

Q2-1 (voice): When I first listened to Yuuka's
singing voice, I heard that feeling of transparency in it.
It's something that definitely doesn't come out in my
voice, and I feel that voice matched S/mileage's debut song
very well.

Q2-2 (dance): (Nakajima Saki) is very sharp in both
body and dancing style. When I think there are girls in C-
ute that have a boyish dancing style, I think of Saki-chan.
I'd like to have that sharpness too.

Q2-3 (talking): Wada-chan's forceful way of talking due to her
youth is attractive. When you pass age 20, you tend to take
various things into consideration . If it's Wada-chan,
even if she says too much I think you'd forgive her.

Q2-4 (character): Kuma-chan's my-pace and level-
headed attitude is really nice. I think that way now since
we came together in Tanpopo# and have started doing more
things together,

Q2-5 (face and body): Generally speaking I was
shocked at the length of the legs of the S/mileage girls.
I couldn't help but think, compared to me, "Why are they so
different like this?" I really felt that, as
expected, Heisei girls are awesome!

Q2-6 (fashion): If I say one thing about Airi-chan's
fashion, I think of it as "Not too intense, and not too
loose". She has her own fashion, and keeping that up is
awesome.

Q3 (secret personality): Because Sayu is girlish,
and her fashion is also angry, I think she has a very quiet
image. But really, even though those points do exist, just
her toothbrushing speed is super fast . Sayu herself
would say "Ee~!? That's normal~" in a quiet-toned voice,
but since she brushes in a really masculine way, it's quite
surprising .

Q4 (big sister): I often go shopping with Ai-chan.
At those times, since she thinks of many fashion points for
me that I don't know, I thought "This kind of big sister
would be nice". If Ai-chan was my big sister, surely she'd
hand me down some clothes with good fashion sense .
Her being able to care for someone well is also a point.

Q5 (little sister): Mai-chan is a really mischievous
girl, isn't she? When I call her "Mai-chan," and she coolly
replies "Please call me just 'Mai'," it's so very cute. And
so, if she would become my little sister, I'd want to warn
that Mai-chan, "Mai! It's bad to be so naughty. You can't
complain about what your big sister is telling you!"

Q6 (mother): Gaki-san, differently from Ai-chan,
also has a good ability to care for someone. In Ai-chan's
case, in difficult times she'd help me with my dad, but
Gaki-san would always pay careful attention to me. Since
I'm the type who normally never does anything , if
Gaki-san was my mother I feel like she'd always usefully
carry things for me!

Q7 (pet): Actually, right now I'm very taken with
LinLin to a horrible extent . Her babbling is
charming, and even though next year she'll turn 20, she's
still so small and cute! It feels like she's from an anime
or manga~. If I compare her to an animal, since she'd be
cute to whoever, a charming hamster would be perfect.

Q8 (comedy duo): As everyone knows, Gaki-san and my
"GakiKame" is H!P's comedy combo. Because of that, man,
there's only Gaki-san to choose from, isn't there ?
Now too, since my boke and Gaki-san's sharp (?) tsukkomi
are still evolving and there's room for new development,
everyone please look forward to it!

Q9 (girlfriend): Because a young girl is
the best after all , I chose from S/mileage. As for why I chose
Saki-chan, it's because she has the best girlish aura~. I
think her cuteness is also extraordinary. Instead of "girl"
(女の子), I wonder if the word "young woman" (女子) fits her
better. If Saki-chan was my girlfriend, I'd want to teach
her many things from the perspective of someone a little
bit older.

Q10 (boyfriend): I think Maimi-chan looks girlish,
but she has a very hard-line way of thinking. Since she
doesn't show off and doesn't like flip-flopping, she has a
strong image of not trying to force her own beliefs on
others. Since I get that feeling even now when she's
female, if she was a man I think she'd definitely be attractive.
She wouldn't be unaggressive, but more of a "Follow me" type.
