[1/23] Morning Musume's 52nd Single "Help me!!"

[Pavlova]

She's basically been channeling Takitty like.. all the time imo. Riho is the new Reina and Sakura is the new Takitty. That's okay.

ughhh I want the shirt but I know their male/unisex small is too big for me.

Riho is the new Koharu

Fixed.

[kyuu]

neither Koharu or Reina. Maki for me

[Pavlova]

Riho is the new Koharu

Fixed.

They are nothing alike, except they are both pretty.

As for her being Maki like, perhaps, to the same extent that Reina was the "new Maki" to me.

-Joined the group at an early age
-Instantly put to the forefront
-Talented
-Star aura
-Very popular with the fans.

[AyuHikaru]

Riho is no where near as talented as Maki

[randompasserby]

Vocal-wise... maybe, but I never had any problems with Riho's to begin with so that's fine by me.
Stage performance ability? Riho is the same age as Goto joined now and imo she's way ahead of her. Even by Ai no Bakayarou she still looked all kinds of awkward to me.

My point is, it's still too early to hand out judgements like it's the most obvious fact in the world . Give her some time, maybe she'll catch up to Maki vocal-wise like how Maki herself eventually become more interesting to watch on stage in her later career.

[Sohee]

Riho has nothing on Maki in terms of singing. But then again Riho's dancing....

[Chibs]

what she lacks in vocals, she makes up for in dance...
they made the right choice pushing her as the ace

[Starra]

I still say Riho's going to sound amazing in a few years.
