A popular Japanese makeup account tweeted that young girls today don't know how to self-style and will all do the same typical popular douyin-makeup instead of finding what works for them. They said they wished they were alive in the the early Heisei Era (1989-2001) when there were clear cut subcultures. For example in the Golden Era, there was Yaguchi and Maki who looked up to gyaru so that was how they styled themselves. During promo for Do It Now Rika called Fujiwara Norika who was popular with women in their 20s an influence on her hairstyles and fashion. In 2000 and 2001, Kei said she liked Harajuku street fashion so she styled herself that way with her hairstyles. In an interview with staff when she was auditioning on ASAYAN Aibon said she liked gyaru fashion and designer brands like Prada but when she debuted she was styled in that Nicola magazine fashion and Angel Blue style fashion that was popular with school kids because that suited her look better than the popular gyaru look.

Compare that to today, you see H!P members all do the same douyin-makeup. That style works great for girls like Kirara and Nanami but Roko always looks a bit off even though she's doing the same exact makeup. I would suspect that's why a lot of people complain a lot of H!P members look alike. They're all doing the same exact douyin makeup style (thick brow, creating the exact same eye shape, individual lash placement, a thin delicate eyeliner wig, drawing pronounced eye bags with brown contour, red lip) that's popular without thinking about if it suits them or not. As an idol fans hold them to higher standards when it comes to self producing.

I like many of the members that were added to Juice=Juice such as Ruru but I still can't get over how epic it would have been to have the original members graduate together and end the group like that... I guess I think J=J should end someday with a sort of "final generation". I have very similar feelings about Tsubaki. I just hope hope hope hope hope that OCHA NORMA never becomes a generational group though.
