Some might argue that this is just another typical Morning Musume's graduation of a member that has been in the group a bit too long.Yet 2 years without any change had definitely solidified Momosu's current image.9 girls supporting one another and covering up any weaknesses they have at a particular area.Some people even thought that Momosu'll end completely 1st rather than have one member graduating out of the current 9.But as fate has its way, that's not the case.
As the disappointment and blind frustration of Koharu reaches its peak and burns out gradually, I wondered about another problem.How will the 8 ppl -Momosu after 6th December react to any new addition into the team if there's any in the wake of Koharu's graduation from H!P as a whole?2 years without any change is a LOOOOOOONG time when you compare it to the early years of Momosu back in 1999 ~ 2004.So will the girls adapt quickly to their 1st change in public image after 2 years or they'll take their time to get back to realism that no matter how long it takes till a graduation occurs,it'll occur at some point.
How will the existing members respond to for example a new member from their supposedly 9th audition?Seeing that the "newest" 3 members of 8th gen had at least 2 years of mingling and bonding with the other members, there might not have the issue of "kouhai-sticking-to-kouhai" or "junior members sticking with junior members".
This feels like a soccer club suddenly releasing the contract of one of their players after 4,5 years of the current team playing soccer together without any change.Rebuilding team chemistry and more importantly,getting the newer players to adapt to the team's playing style isn't something that can be done quickly or pushed.
Still only time'll tell.There's 74 more days before Koharu finally leaves H!P totally and Momosu experiences a change in their presentation etc.Maybe ... just maybe if Momosu can exclude Koharu and every topic Koharu-relatedfrom all their MC talk during their song breaks, they'll be used to a 8 person Morning Musume by the time Koharu graduates out.Still that seems to be like forcing the issue ... and I'm not exactly pleased with that idea.The final speech and concert'll feel lifeless and emotionless since Morning Musume excluding Koharu will be all but prepared for life without her,and there really isn't anything to be sad about since they had already left that behind them.
Oh nvm Ima thinking too much.
May God guide our paths to the best we can do.
God speed
