By the way, I wasn't trying to say that your opinion was wrong or anything, but rather that the idea that "seniority and then age" is the norm is far from true. Sorry, I rambled. :P

I actually agree with you a bit about the skills thing. I read interviews from Yajima Maimi and Shimizu Saki recently about being leaders, and a lot of it really was just making sure they stayed focused and encouraging them. But the leader does sort of represent the group in many ways, so it's good to have one who's talented, I think.

Buuut again this is all just my view from what I've observed. ;) Your view of Ayaka being a balance of experience/age makes sense too. There really does seem to be a lot that goes into choosing a leader, so ultimately it just comes down to the staff's decision I guess.

I feel like writing a blog about H!P leaders now. XD It's so fascinating to me!
