TLS March Madness: Tsugunaga Region 1v8/4v5
In this round:
1. Momoko Tsugunaga vs. 8. Atsuko Maeda
4. Mai Satoda vs. 5. Nozomi Tsuji
Momoko Tsugunaga
Age: 16
Member Since: 2002
Beat: 16. Momoka Komine
vs.
Atsuko Maeda
Age: 16
Association: AKB48
Beat: 9. Mari Yaguchi
Activity: Atsuko Maeda. It happens again! The bad year of Berryz strikes again! Atsuko is holding my entire interest in AKB48 at this point so I have to give her the nod.
Looks: Atsuko Maeda. While I do admit Momoko had a great photobook - I still like Atsuko a bit more.
Charisma: Momoko Tsugunaga. This is a category that I’m conceding to Momoko. While she doesn’t entertain me as much as she does other - I admit that she places her gimmick as well as Sayumi plays the conceited card.
WINNER - Atsuko Maeda 2-1. What an upset! Momoko doesn’t it make to the Sweet 16, although she is a sweet 16 year old herself. Atsuko, the mystery idol that could, advances.
Mai Satoda
Age: 23
Member Since: 2002
Beat: 13. Yuki Maeda
vs.
Nozomi Tsuji
Age: 20
Member Since: 2000
Beat: 12. Miki Korenaga
Activity: Nozomi Tsuji. KNOCKED. UP.
Looks: Mai Satoda. Mai-Thai. Although if images of pregnant Nozomi surface, I will go back and change this.
Charisma: Mai Satoda. Mai always seemed to be a girl who just needed more exposure. She is really fun to watch in performances and interviews. Nozomi as an idol was far less entertaining - being pregnant and all.
WINNER - Mai Satoda 2-1. Well this is where the upsets are finally starting to come. Even as a higher-ranked seed, Mai winning over Nozomi is a little surprising to me. Atsuko knocking off Momoko is obviously the upset of the tournament so far. In the Sweet 16, Mai and Atsuko square off - I see things being even there.
