5. The Reaction Queen With A Beautiful Voice and Smile: Niigaki Risa

Niigaki Risa

Niigaki Risa was my favorite until the 9th gen joined, but she still has a very special place in my heart. She was my 5th favorite until she graduated. When I heard about her graduating I was a little upset but I didn't cry. I was fine until I saw footage of her grad and listened to Egao ni Namida ~Thank You Dear My Friends~ with subtitles and read some member's blogs about it and I broke down I cried for three days. I mean she was one of the main reasons I loved MM and H!P.

The first time I saw her was the Nanchatte Renai MV. I saw her and I thought she was absolutely beautiful she seemed so mature. I then went and watched their Cinderella musical and I saw her as the prince I automatically fell in love with her she was just so amazing that I couldn't help but love her. After seeing that I came to support the coupling of TakaGaki or AiGaki as some call it. I miss seeing her in MM but now she's an actress and I just hope to see her work together with Ai-chan again.

25. The Sweet, Doll-like, Cute, and Mature Member: Mitsui Aika

Mitsui Aika

So as you all know Aika graduated Morning Musume but not H!P. I was never a huge fan of hers but she really stood out to me after the 9th gen joined.

She's a very mature person. She helped me get into MM because she was in Guardians 4 and I found out about her being in MM. I'm happy that she's still in H!P. I think she'll do just fine from now on.

29. Amazingly Beautiful and Wonderful Singing Voice: Suzuki Airi

Suzuki Airi

My least favorite C-ute member and 3rd least in H!P. Now this girl has an amazing voice. Plus she's amazing cute and beautiful. I look up to her cause of her voice. This girl doesn't deserve the hate she gets I mean I might not be a huge fan of her's but still. She doesn't really catch my interest in personality but she's still amazing.

30. Once The Smallest, The Incredible Dancer: Shimizu Saki

Shimizu Saki

My second least favorite. She's interesting to a point. She's also very pretty. Captain just doesn't appeal much to me but she is an amazing dancer. I love watching her live. When I see her she'll already be the leader of Hello! Project. I'm sure she'll do just fine.

31. The Gentle Giant: Kumai Yurina

Kumai Yurina 

Kumai is my least favorite member of Hello! Project. I don't find her interesting at all but I love her tallness.

I respect her a whole lot! She is fairly talented and I am very happy that she is a lead vocalist. 

Sometimes I wonder if she feels awkward in Berryz and H!P because of how tall she is. She is one of the best singers and dancers. I love her even though she is last on my list. But this girl is so full of win it's amazing. I can't wait to see her at Animenext!
