It took me a while to be satisfied with my rankings, but I finally came up with this:

This ranking is a bit different than last year, isn’t it? A lot of girls moved around, and some got added in, and a few moved down. However, my bottom two may never change XD.

Top Ten:

1. Kamei Eri- What!? Reina isn’t number one anymore!? Nope, this year, Eri has stood out to me more than any other girl. Her voice was finally featured, and she is one of the best dancers in Hello! Project. She has a lovable personality. What isn’t there to like?

2. Tanaka Reina- Although not number 1, its a very close second. I still lover her, and I highly doubt that will change.

3. Tokunaga Chinami- This past year, I followed her more. I’m so happy she finally got a photobook. She has grown into such a pretty girl, and watching her shine in PV’s has caused me to like her even more. Not only that, but she can be quite funny.

4. Junjun- She moved down a bit from last year, mostly because there was so little from her this year. Which isn’t her fault, of course, but my interest in other girls has grown. Thats all. Jun is still adorable and funny.

5. Okai Chisato- I’ve always loved Chisato. I still wish I would be able to see her in C-ute PV’s for more than .5 seconds and I still wish for her to get solo lines that she deserves for having a great voice, but oh well. I will hold out!

6. Tsugunaga Momoko- Along with Junjun, Momo moved down too. I love her just as much as I did last year, if not more, however, my love for other girls increased as Momo stayed the same, causing her to move down a bit. Her energy is still contagious and I love it.

7. Shimizu Saki- This past year, my interest in dance has increased about…100%. hah. So now I look for which girl catches my eye in dance shots, and with Berryz, Saki always catches my eye. Her energy is dancing. Sure, her vocals aren’t the best, but she could dance circles around the rest of the Berryz. Hah. Thats what made me start noticing her more.

8. Linlin- Man, that Aozoraga solo was amazing. Not only is she great at singing, but she’s got great personality to boot. I just started really paying attention to her, though. Who knows? She might move up this year :O.

9. Michishige Sayumi- This is probably the biggest shock. She definitely wouldn’t have made the list when I participated in the poll last year. So why did she make it this year? She grew on me. Simple as that. Also started loving the heck out of 6th gen, hah.

10. Fukuda Kanon- She’s the only one who hasn’t moved. There is still something about her that I really like, however, I haven’t had the opportunity to figure it out. Perhaps this year with S/Mileage’s major debut I will figure it out!

And now, for the group rankings:

1. Morning Musume- No doubt about that. I still love ‘em.

2. Berryz Koubou- This year they have released awesome singles…and I can’t help but love them all. Their energy is something that Morning Musume doesn’t really have anymore. However, I am loyal to my Morning Musume.

3. Buono!- Awesome as ever, they continue to release amazing after amazing single. Why wasn’t Airi and Miyabi in my top ten? Well…Airi has been annoying in C-ute…and something about Miyabi doesn’t sit well with me. They both sing wonderfully, though.

4. S/Mileage- They haven’t disappointed me yet. Hoping to see more of them this year with their debut!

5. Mano Erina- Although I don’t really like her…her songs tend to be really catchy. Like Sekai wa Summer Party.

6. C-ute- They have been rather disappointing. After losing Kanna and Umeda (and personality), the best they could do was give all the solo lines to Airi? That is stupid. Their new single, Campus Life blablah whatever, seems a bit better, but I am still skeptical. Most of all, want moar Chisato.

7. Guardians 4- Hahahhahaha. No.

Well, there you have it. My rankings for 2010!
