True Life Seek

In this round:
2. Arisa Noto vs. 15. Minami Sengoku
7. Natsumi Abe vs. 10. Yurina Kumai

Arisa Noto
Age: 19
Member Since: 2004

vs.

Minami Sengoku
Age: 16
Member Since: 2004

Activity: Arisa Noto. The mainstream exposure is fairly even with Arisa and Minami. However, Arisa has been involved in a lot more, quality Eggs releases.

Looks: Arisa Noto. Sometimes she looks a little too much like Nozomi Tsuji. However this photo is likely to take Arisa far in the Looks category.

Charisma: Arisa Noto. Oh Arisa is far more entertaining.

WINNER - Arisa Noto 3-0. Minami couldn’t do much to fight off Arisa.

Natsumi Abe
Age: 26
Member Since: 1997

vs.

Yurina Kumai
Age: 14
Member Since: 2002

Activity: Natsumi Abe. Is this right? Should we file an appeal to the TLS Committee? Fact is, Berryz has had a sub par year and Yurina helped contribute to that. While Natsumi was sneaking underage idols into lesbian bars, Yurina has done…well, nothing.

Looks: Yurina Kumai. No surprise here. Yurina Kumai’s Legs win, even if she doesn’t know how to work them.

Charisma: Natsumi Abe. How to answer this? Natsumi, whether it is intentional or due to her being so clueless, is good for one hilarious scandal a year. She didn’t disappoint this year by attempting vehicular homicide while leaving a parking lot. Oh Natsumi, you are such a bad idol. On the other side, Yurina continues to disappoint and be all-around boring.

WINNER - Natsumi Abe 2-1. With a late push, Natsumi was able to finish ahead of Yurina. In a year where she released more bad music and leached off of others, she still advances to the Round of 32. She has to be happy about that. It’s an obvious disappointment for Yurina. She was a former favorite of the TLS Committee and still holds much promise for the future. It’d be best for her to retool for next season. As for the Arisa Noto vs Natsumi Abe (Yes! Nocchi vs Nacchi!!) match up, Arisa ids the obvious favorite.
