Umeda Erika Leaves C-ute/H!P

According to hello-online.org's post, Umeda Erika will be leaving H!P to pursue studies in fashion on October 25th, the end of their tour. Interesting. It's possible. She's beautiful. Does it make sense? No. Do think this was planned? I don't know. They say she's leaving on her own accord. But Kanna just left! I don't have much to say on this topic except "Dang". Maybe they were best friends since they were the least looked at/appreciated in the group? But that doesn't make sense either. Ume was Leader before Yajima... And they say she gave it over to Yaji. She couldn't handle it or something. BULL! I think they gave it to Yaji because she was getting the group more sales & then they put Umechan in the back. What a waste! She got hardly any lines even though she's been there for just as long as the rest of the group. But she's not alone. Look at Nakki, Chisa, Mai (and Kanna before she left)! It's like they're backup singers. I know, it's been said before. Whatever. I'm not a HUGE C-ute fan. I still LOVE them but let's face it; Berryz Koubou & even Buono is better than C-ute. Well, good luck to you Umeda. Wish you the best of luck! I'm glad she is getting a proper graduation.

What is H!P coming to?

Shugo Chara Units

Guardians 4 & Buono!


What can I say? Buono! is friggin awesome. I love Buono! It's got the 3 best (in my opinion) members of Berryz工房 & C-ute: Natsuyaki Miyabi, Tsugunaga Momoko, Suzuki Airi. All three of their voices are unique, beautiful, and awesome in their own way. And I have not ever disliked a song by Buono!... ever. Their newest single seems like it will be very interesting. It's called "Take It Easy". Tell me how you like it! I have always loved Buono!.

Then there was Shugo Chara Egg! This post is not about them at all.



Guardians 4 was last with Mitsui Aika, Nakajima Saki, Kumai Yurina, Sugaya Risako. For the other two groups, it took me the least amount of time to like Buono! and then a bit more time to kind of like Shugo Chara Egg. Guardians 4 took me the most amount of time to even think about liking. I just began to like "Omakase♪Guardian" yesterday, actually. I heard "Summer Has Come" today. I like that song more than their first. I have no idea why it took me so long to like this group. Maybe because Risako is in it? I do not hate Risako. How I feel about Risako will be explained in a much later post.

So, what's the point of this particular post? I would like to know how long each will last. I think Buono! has the most potential to make it past Shugo Chara, no? Shugo Chara Egg would be the first to fall with Guardians 4 following close behind. Both groups are like totally Shugo Chara energy. And Buono! has great songs that aren't really for the anime. That's good logical reasoning, yes? But, some people may like Guardians 4's member lineup! SO! It is Buono! vs Guardians 4.

Which group do you think is the best? Which group would you like to last far beyond Shugo Chara's ending?
