C-ute Rankings!
Here they are! I didn't get it up when planned (loaded with homework!), but its here now :D
The picture thingy works now, yay!
1. Chisato Okai - I really love her...She is extremely underused, why? I don't know...because she's not as cute as Maimi or Airi? Probably..I think she's adorable, but UFA probably doesn't D:.Her voice is powerful, dynamic and overall amazing. Her voice is best shown in JUMP...if you haven't heard it (You're crazy if you haven't), go listen now! I really hope she gets some solo lines in future!
2. Umeda Erika - With Maasara Blue Jeans, I thought C-ute was going to do the same thing as Berryz were doing. With three mains (Airi, Maimi, Megumi) and one other main but with consistantly less solos than the other three (Umeda). She has a pretty solid good voice. I understand why people wouldn't like it, it can be a bit irritating at times. Although she isn't noticed much, I think she's one of the 'solid' members of C-ute (she has to be thought of as good from UFA/Tsunku, she was given most of Megumi's lines in the indie singles) :D
3. Suzuki Airi - Honestly, I thought I'd be ranking her lower! But...perhaps its that her status is the same and yet so different from Risako's. They're both the girl who gets the most lines per single and probably get the most attention in the two groups...but Suzuki just seems so much more...grateful. I guess. She isn't portrayed as a "Sexy" Idol, more like a teenage girl 'growing up and being herself' and the like. Which is how UFA/Tsunku should portray Risako, but they don't...um...yeah. Enough about Berryz. I like Airi. She has a nice voice. She deserves the amount of lines she gets.
4. Arihara Kanna - Eh? Kanna is really this high? I guess I've always just naturally taken a liking to her. She sings okay....her voice often sounds like its going to break at any point, but she always makes it through. Thats pretty impressive, now if only she improved vocally...sounding..nice. Anyway...I think she would have been second...had she note seemed so constipated in Tokkaikou Junjou...I dunno. She'll probably lower some more if she doesn't get some more personality :(
5. Yajima Maimi - I'm kind of surprised she's so low! Maimi is a great member! She is a really strong dancer. You can tell she puts her all into it. I used to think her voice sounded weird, but, like I said before, she somehow changed, and doesn't sound like the awkward girl she did. I can imagine she'll be rising sometime within this year :D
6. Hagiwara Mai - I know I've said this, but she looks like my sister. Not so in the picture ranker-thing, but in Tokkaiko Junjou. They're both the same age...both so tiny...both used to have awkward smiles for the camera...both have similar pudgy cheeks and hair...I dunno. I see it. I don't dislike Mai at all. She's very young, and has a lot of time to show her personality. Her voice is good for a 12-year-old, but like Kanna's, it teeters tremendously, almost on the verge of being bad. But she's so young, its hard to criticize her for it. Ah...last thing: She's c-ute now, but just wait, she'll end up like Aibon >_> I can see it now....
7. Nakajima Saki - Meh. Saki just...bores me. Her voice makes me want to rip my ear drums out, unless she's rapping, honestly. She has gotten prettier as of late, but...that doesn't help...she's still not very pretty in my eyes >_>. I really...don't have much to say about this girl. I don't hate her, but she's just...not...interesting to me.
So there you have it! My rankings for C-ute...!
I'm so sleepy! I'm going to bed. Oyasumi~!
