Sayumi~n and Reinya

There is too much god damn Sayumi and Reina hatrid in the western H!P community. It really riles me. They are my favourite idols EVER so.. yeah.

I really wish people would wake up to what Sayumi is now. She's not the talentless "cute" member she used to be when she first joined. She is poison-tounge Sayumi, don't forget- the "cute" thing is pretty much a label that was given to her because she calls herself cute in terms of looks, she is pretty mature and sensible if you ask me. And yeah, her voice is high, and it /was/ terrible, but you have to admit she's improved a LOT since the old days. 

I mean come on, her solos in this (Koharu's, and her original) sound really good. Her voice isn't "high and screechy" like people say it is. And I can't see how people can't like Sayumi's voice and enjoy the music from W. How "high and chipmunk" can you get? :/ (Yes i love W).

Tell me again she can't sing, and she's the "cute" member?

I think most people have this pre-judgement about Sayumi, where people think she's a cutesy chipmunked voice idiot, and because it's popular to think this way, they won't change their opinions. It just... annoys me. She will be a wonderful subleader and don't forget, once she takes up the position, she will mature. She;ll have to. That's why she's been on so many TV appearences recently I reckon- they will "train" her more, in essence, to become a good subleader.

Not to mention she's smokin' hot.

Also Reina haters are BEYOND me. How can you possibly say that she can't sing or dance?

I mean, I can't remember a time she has sung badly, off key, or missed a note. Her voice might be more "cutesy" than it was, and her image has changed, but if that's how she wants to be, then let her, right? She is still damn sexy and an amazingly talented, no matter how much you don't want to admit it. I know people are sore about her self-centered attitude, but I think it's funny, and I think the all-loving, happy perfect "idol" image is kinda dead these days and it's frankly robotic and boring (hypocrisy here though because I adore s/mileage). Reina is, as Tsunku said, the closest to being the perfect Idol, because she has talent, attitude and style. I also know that people get annoyed that she gets more lines than anyone (besides Aichan), but so does Airi Suzuki in C-ute and Risako Sugaya in BerryZ, but how many haters do you get for them? Exactly. People in the western community need to pull themselves out of their asses and realise than Reina is (whether you like it or not) the second most popular member after Aichan, and therefore Tsunku will give her lines and TV appearances. That's how the line-giving system works- on popularity.

And I really don't need to explain that she's sexiest girl in Hello!Project and pretty much in Japan.

You might not personally LIKE their singing voices, but that doesn't make them BAD. I hate Adelle and Amy Windehouse's voices but does that mean they CAN'T sing? No it doesn't. It just means I don't like it.
