About Reina
So… it pisses me of, so I think I should try to put it in word…
There are many people telling things like Reina gets all the leads of all singles of Morning Musume and so on and continue writing BS about this… Well correct me, but the only songs, where she really had leads, were Shabondama, Resonant Blue and Pepper Keibu right? Okay, I agree, it’s shit to give solos to just one or two members in the group, but I don’t see anyone complaining about Takahashi! Well, I wouldn’t complain about her too, she’s the leader and believe me, I don’t like to say that, but she deserves to be leader, because she works hard and knows her business.
But Reina did work hard too, she was on time in the center from Shabondama and then she was put in the background for a few years, till Tsunku… UFA… whoever decided to give her a few lines now.
She made herself popular without getting much spotlight, that’s much more other people in Morning Musume could do! Eri got popular too, but I still think that the main reason of this was her Eric Kamenzou thing in Hello!Morning… What do we learn? She got a skit → she became more popular. But let’s stop wasting time talking about Kamei… Takahashi… I wasn’t a fan back then, I don’t really know about her „popularity-story“ I don’t have the mood to talk about that now.
Well, next topic. Reina is too skinny… You think so? Well, I think she is ok. She looks healthy and ok, maybe her arms are a bit skinny, but look at her face guys, it looks perfect! It isn’t bony, whatever! Believe me, there are people who even try to gain weight and don’t make it, even with eating chocolate all day, I’m one of these. If she was a bit fat, you wouldn’t say even one word, you wouldn’t care, but… woah! Reina has skinny arms! What a disaster! Well, we should get her to withdraw right away, right?
She proves all the time, that she is something you call an „adult“ I think, for example this Cinderella thing, when her fans started badmouthing other members and so on… Reina was the one who didn’t make use of her speaking time because of that! Oh, by the way… were was your great leader Takahashi there? Why didn’t she do anything back then? Isn’t it her job to care about something like that? Wasn’t she there on stage too? Or another example in her radio show, instead of using the time promoting herself, she asks the audience to send her suggestions to make Haromoni@ better! Well, Haromoni@ is over, I know, but she wanted the show to gain popularity!
And why the hell can’t some of you stop talking about her wonky eye? Well, it’s ok talking about it, but some people talk like it’s some kind of illness! Isn’t it something that makes her unique? In my opinion, she’s one of the only members who aren’t that fake… I don’t know her, I didn’t even plan to talk about this, but I think we know so much personal stuff about her that it’s just impossible that all of this is fake! For example, if she wants to be thath popular this badly, why did she tell, that she participated the gokki audition even when she knew, that she was to young and violated against the rules? Or that she hates losing isn’t the best thing either! What is great about her too, is that she always corrects people who say the rokkis are the kids sempais, because it’s the other way around! I never did see Eri or Sayu doing this, or Koharu or whatever… the kids are Reinas sempais and she thinks, that people should behave like that!
Well… I think, that was it -^^- I feel so… relieved now XD well, I think I’ll post a few pics =P
Reina gets leads in concert performances of older songs, has a solo song, and you forgot that she was center in Ambitious and lead in Onna ni Sachi Are and Mikan aswell. She’s generally focused on a lot. I’m not trying to be a bitch, but you said “correct me”. And a lot of people complain about Takahashi getting solo lines, too.
well.. in onna ni sachi are, i thought takahashi was lead o_o? however XD but you’re right, i totally forgot about mikan and ambitious… i know she’s focused much more than other girls… and i wrote about my opinion about it XD and don’t forget that i was angry when i wrote this, so the way i put this was a bit… i hope you know what i mean, because i don’t know how to explain XD
I don’t mind Reina getting leads because she’s good at singing. My first Morning Musume song was Onna ni Sachi Are, and the first person I gravitated toward was Tanaka Reina so even someone as musically deaf as I am noticed her talent. However, what I do mind is her getting all or most of the lines. Take a look at Resonant Blue. Really good song, but kind of sad only Tanaka and Takahashi got any lines. Everyone else got “uh” or “ah” or “whoa.” I like Reina; she’s bluntly honest so what you get is what you see. Guess I should be complaining to Tsunku.
Of course, the problem is even worse with C-ute. The last PV (Shock) that came out only had Airi singing, which had me on edge the entire time wondering when the other members would start singing.
Again, it’s not their fault, and Tsunku is the artist here. He has to decide who would best portray the meaning of his song and he does have a lot of projects so that might be a factor in streamlining the process (although it is a bit insensitive).
