Post ep.9 top 11 (tho I'd get everyone there if i could) sad without Kotone

pd101 japan the girls ep 9 by a harowota

you know the deal

opening words hit kinda hard

ONE TWO THREE LEAP HIGH!!! leap high brain rot

why elimination feelings recap?! me sad i miss S. Kotone

the concept groups feelings being either saved or having lost members is so :c

Ayane is ambicious, quite sure some might take her words a bit insensitive...?

ahhh saved teams must chose the ones they think they need (toxic's case)

everyone (except Ran, who choose Yuuki) choose for the 1st one themselves?

oh and Ayane put Joa 3rd

ow Joa felt impossible to add herself there

ohhhh &ME time, saved ones

Koto unsure poor thing

poor Tsuzumi, can't choose

AtoZ time here

Shizuku wants S. Kokona

PARUTAN IS SO CUTE

Popcorn team, idk, N. Kokona wants Joa

who stays for &ME?! (as if i didn't saw images before... remember half)

bye Rinon, let's see you in your group for this (which i totally remember... i don't)

awwww Rinon!!! (i love and hate how i get attached to these girls)

who stays for TOXIC?!

bye Miyu, Joa, Hazuki... let's see you later (poor Miyu, she was leader)

all of them are so cute!!! (feels like sisters, all sisters)

NOOOOOOOO AYANE SAD (well, all sad)

how they join the groups? who decides?

ohhh they divide

AtoZ team so cute!!!

they got Rinon and miyu

AWWWWW THEIR SIGNS

CUTE GIRLS SO CUTE

they look like little sisters to Miyu and Rinon here, idk

"Ai no reson" - Sakuraba Haruka (love you parutan)

wait... so Baddie got intact... ohhh nice

Mena is like "they're good and i'm glad, but don't want to lose my positions and might lose them)

POPCORN CHAOS

they're so fun!!!!

how they planned it, how they received them, so cute and cute!!!

Joa in popcorn is interesting

ohhh uncle hongee is presenting this as well

Yumeki strict w his fan that wrote Yumeki in kanji, wtf

global producers!

Tsuzumi's "Daisuki" to her french fan (who lives in Korea but speaks japanese, funny remark)

the benefit thingy makes me feel so bad

being 7th is 0 votes, at least give them 100... this is so sad

Koakuma (Baddie) time!!!!

CLAW-me cool and cute at the same time!

YURARA CENTER?!

they look so cool, OMG I WANT YUI'S FIT

oh, ofc, rehearsal, and it's Hana's team so and she's 35th, so is hard for them

all missing Ema-chan :c c:

they got a letter from Ema

awww Ema

DO IT FOR EMA

ohh Ema was supposed to be center, wait... Ranka center? :/

when it changed to Yurara? (better)

ohhh Ranka wanted Yurara to be center and gave it to her for preffer the rap, nice tbh

poor Yurara, girl is worried

Hana is leading ohhh

Baddie is complex as i understand Keiko

they're so wow after that discussion of the concepts, feel them kinda explosive

this is fun group as well

so cool, sexy and cute

wow Yumeki's opinion

i can hear Yui having troubles with the lower notes

i love how Thelma seems so fun as a instructor, Thelma is big sis for sure

OMG THE FITS!!!!!!!! i wanna be that cool to rock those outfints, maybe not Ayano's tho, furr jackets seem so weird for me

PERFORMANCE!!!

best teamwork are you saying Thelma?!

WOOOOOOW YURARA ON THAT INTRO SO CUTE AND COOL

me likes me likes

omg Yui! Hana! Yurara! Keiko!!!

ojhduiafhuyfsghjsdgabfuyh Keiko and Rino!

i'm weak at that type of fanservice, sorry

kinda wanna cover this song ngl

SUGOI SUGOI FOR REAL HONGEE

ehhhh Hana's monitor fell?! went unnoticed

owww Ayano you did it nice, idc how many votes you got, you all shined (even Ranka...)

true, they enjoyed this a lot!!! i agree w hongee

next one is? AtoZ!!!!!!!

i have high expectations but not in how ever you may think

Tokimekki (why traduce the name you mfs?!)

firts love song, expectatives go up

no one wanted this one? (tbh i agree Parutan, i'd want koakuma too, i guess Haruka doesn't want more cute songs?)

Mena keeps being leader and center, but she handled it good, i think

oof Rinon wants the rap, but also Mena

Rinon took the rap

tbf, Mena's voice in the rap is not bright, as Rinon's

Miyu is so good at expressions and again sooo ii onee-san

oof get the same group she was in before joining the dance room is hard for Miyu...

everyone helped her to focus tho

ohhh Parutan is another that quited school, but doesn't regret it, that's good, hope she never will

auch Mena off key

ohhh recording footage

iugh i saw pro tools (i hate pro tools)

awww Parutan looked so cute recording!!!

Mena has many problems to record

2 and half hrs for Mena recording?!

they're supporting her so cutely

i love to hear the hint of classical on Shizuku even when it's almos unperceptable

Yumeki being cute and not scary and kinda therapeutic, make a wish!!!

they look so cute, i wish i could handle cute looks like those, but i cant

Hina and Parutan are all in my eyes

Shizuku so interesting sounding

cute song, me likes

Miyu is master of expressions and taught them nicely

Rinon is so cute cool cute

Miyu is cute sexy cute here

Kagura is cute cool

the rest cute cute, but in different ways

AMAZING me liked, feel so sweet, i hope popcorn isn't much sweeter or i'll get diabetes

Parutan's words for Yumeki so cute, her improvement as well

PARUTAN MAKE IT TO DEBUT WHEREVER

&ME time

Nalala?... kinda boring name

cute cool white uniform-ish outfits, like, but too white... kinda oujosama-ish tho Tsuzumi's is less oujosama-ish tho

idk what to say here, but i sense the troubles they have and had with the rehearsal footage

Miu's funny comment bout choosing center

awww Koto&Yui (Yui hyping Koto)

everyone here's in crisis?! Koto, Suzu, Kokoro?

poor Suzu, i think

Ran words are nice, ngl, i also think i got a 180° turn mindset after those words, and i'm not even sure about what

NAKASONE!!!

Koto isn't there, Koto got sick :c

still sick for last rehearsal?! I feel so sad

Nakasone got me sadly annoyed, but i get it why, but then mother, and then profesional mother

still kinda worried, KOTO WAS SICK!!!

is she sick in the performance?!

wow i haven't talked bout Momona

CUTE TSUZUMI!!!

i can finally see a bit of brightness on Suzu

Momona is my dear Kassa that i remember always but pro-er somehow

everyone cool, tho idk how i feel bout this song, is cool and cute, more cute tho... but there's a something missing... idk

nice performance, nice all, i'm just worried Koto was still sick there

she wasn't totally fine yet, trainers said it, wasn't noticeable, but still worried

i could have said more bout everyone, but idk, no words, and weird feelings

POPCORN TEAM!

kawaii

everyone a flavour of popcorn cute!!!

lol cute Serina!

new F7avors (don't like that 7 there... but cute, all are xxFx)

i'm curious bout cute Joa

uhhh Joa had hard time for sure

lol Serina was the only one wanting to be center after reformation

poor Hazuki can't remembers choreo

Joa extra work

i can't talk bout their meeting but it feels, dunno how, but feels

Sakura is so funny

Nakasone made them go outside!!!

and look from affar

Serina wasn't last rehearsal!

oh nooooo pain, back, or hip?

poor Serina!!!

hope she didn't got it worse after performance

i like they're colour coded, that's idol!

lets go

SO CUTE START!!!

NAGOMI BBY!!!!!

i like this song!

cute Joa!

everyone but wow cute Joa!!!

from cute cute to cute sexy to cute cute?

HYPER CUTE

cute Joa is amazing

all cute

ohhhh Kokona speaking english cute!!!!

I'm gonna speed up stuff cuz gotta sleep, but let's go Toxic

they look sexy

CharmHolic... interesting name

ohhh Kokona says it's a sexy song, makes sense (also the name and fits)

kinda want Yuuki's fit and Momoka's

ok, so, Yuuki leader

Momoka suggesting change on positions

ofc Ayane wants main vocal, girl is confident on her voice

Momoka, Yuuki and Tsukuchi battle for the raps part

Momoka rap (enjoy what you lost one time)

Yuuki got sub vocal 2, so Tsukushi rap 2

so they're discussing the type of sexy the song is, interesting

Ran woks so well with everyone, idk, Ran shines whereer she is because she seems to try her best to make everyone else shine as well, that's what i think at least

Kokona, u can be sexy, believe it!!! (i'm not one to talk tho) also work on expressions, that helps, but you're expresionless

had to put x2 speed

They got Ayane embarrased at recording

c'mon Kokona, u can do it, i know it's hard

Kokona is doing it!

let's go

poor Yuuki, doesn't know how to sing that part!

awww Yuuki and Nano, they were in the same club so it seems so wholesome the help

PERFORMANCE!

new Kokona you say Nakasone? okay okay

i got cautivated by everyone but the song is not my type of sexy song, but nice nice

wow

fr it's a new Kokona

idk what are Momoka's vibes, but i want them and also wanna be under the charm of those vibes (in which way? idk)

not Ayane being the only one becoming cute cute in her solo camera portion after the end! she had a sexy vibe but cut it anyways, love it!

but omg MOMOKA

back to speed up more

every one was amazing!

but tbh, i think &ME was the less amazing one

let's see what people thoght

POPCORN? that was 4th for me

2 on 3rd?

Koakuma?, is my 2nd

AtoZ tied with koakuma? that was my 1st

&ME will be 1st right? ofc... but that was my last (sorry Kassa, and everyone)

Toxic was my 3rd...

sad

oh &ME places

Kokoro and Suzu 4th?

3rd? Kassa oh

6th? Rin...

7th? nooo she will get 0... Koto noooooooooooo, she was sick!

1st? Tsuzumi (deserved) so 2nd Miu

Live Audience Ranking

Note: this only includes the LIVE audience of the performances in ep3+4, plus the additional 3,000 bonus votes. Whoever won out of the two groups that performed the song got 3,000 bonus votes.

Second note: These are essentially useless rankings as they weren't actual fan votes submitted online/through mobile.

Third note: Tumblr hates ties in lists. Use the vote count to determine a tie. Most everything from rank 36 onward is a tie.

The one spoiler I've seen ahead of watching this week's episode is that Momoka somehow leaped from #32 to #15. I don't get it. I like her, but between that hideous hairstyle and her complaining about her low* ranking, I didn't think she'd be so popular. Maybe she was mistranslated, or maybe she said what she said but it was obvious to any native speaker that she misspoke. Or maybe people were just glad to have heard something other than the cookie-cutter speech most of the Top 50 recited.

*Everything's relative. The 46 contestants who got eliminated last week would all kill to have ranked 32nd. Or 42nd. Or 50th.

UPDATE: After seeing Momoka openly cry this week because she didn't get the song she wanted, I think voters are responding to her no-bullshit, no-filter frankness. And that's pretty cool.
