... 108 girls!.... Who the girls are exactly remains mostly a mystery, except for that most of them aren't singers but models....

Yikes! You weren't kidding about "most of them aren't singers but models". Most of the 108 girls were a half second off clue on the repeating the main chorus of the song, and ther recording sounds like it was made inside of washing machine. http://www.108.tv/

I thought the whole Morning Musume thing got out of hand when they hit 23(?) girls but this... this has me thinking... 1001 Chicitas! coming soon to a video station and bowling alley near you. And that is just the first step as I seek to employ in the mega group to end all mega groups every hot girl in the world from age 13 to 22. And yes, I will have at least half of them in bikinis (unlike 100+8 which only seems to have one or two).

BTW That song was so awful... I do not miss this aspect of Japan in the least.

Their bodies rawk, no doubt.

EWWWWW! Apparently, the group also has new-halfs in its ranks:

New Halfs.. not cool.
The orange hair orangutang in the left second row of the profile pagemight be one. The one in the front center looks like one too with the burly ass legs.
You really don't know until they speak or they take off their clothes. Even then, you still don't know sometimes..

No you certainly are not missing. The last time I saw, GoMaki, Matsuura Aya, and some other Whoring Musumes were collaborating a new group. I forgot what it was called but it doesn't matter. But what matters is that they constantly change names and group members and I got tired of keeping up with what. What I don't get is, they graduate Morning Busume, and they get together again to form new groups

I've seen Yaguchi and Gomaki in Yokohama but they were certainly not hot at all. I remember Yaguchi being really short, teeth crooked and having bad ugly legs. They were filming for some TV show but they were so dumb that they had to read cue cards. Even their laughters were cued! I don't know what the big fuss is about.

That's the new thing. It's not the "product" as much as the "producer". I will start a new group... one which will feature a different hot chick every time singing something regretably, and with time forgetably, catchy (that will be the first releases title "Regreatably Forgetable"). Johnny did it with little boys... I don't mean he "did it" (though maybe he did), I mean he did the same thing... I want to do it with young girls... yes, both inferences of "do it". MoMusume blew it when they let the girls get more famous than Tsunku (sp?). I will not let that happen as I pimp these non-rechargeable, non-recyclable, non-talented image girls. Wait a sec... that just summed up the J-pop industry. Dang!

This is horrible, horrible overkill
