Mirai Shoujo Auditions: Who's Auditioning and Who I Want to Get Into Morning Musume From Hello! Pro Kenshuusei
I am currently and frantically anticipating on the current 12th. Gen "Mirai Shoujo" auditions for famous Hello! Pro girl group Morning Musume. Ugh! I really want the auditions to end and finally see the victorious new members. Anyways, I just wanted to update on my blog and tell everyone about who's auditioning and who I want to get into Morning Musume from the Hello! Pro Kenshuusei. The popular girl group has been staying strong ever since its formation in the year of 1997 and has realeased over 18 million singles in Japan alone. It is also number two in the "highest overall single sales of a female girl group"; only next to AKB48. After the auditions were announced on March 16, 2013, at the Morning Musume Concert Tour 2013 Haru Michishige SOUL~ Tanaka Reina Sotsugyou Kinen Special~, over 6,000+ girls had applied for the auditions even before the deadline for the auditions was extended! I bet, even now, that there are probably up to a-hundred-thousand girls! Anyways, here is a look at who is auditioning, and also who I want to seriously get into Morning Musume sometime:

Here's Who's Auditioning:


So, anyways, here's who's auditioning. As you can see at the top left-half of this section, is a picture of an 11-year-old Japanese girl; her name is Cuca. Cuca is a popular dancer on Youtube for her dancing performances on Hello! Pro songs; the name of her Youtube channel is 3u10. She can also be seen singing along to the songs in her videos as well. At first Cuca auditioned for Morning Musume's 11th gen. auditions, but didn't make it because she did not reach the age requirements in order to audition. But, now, she is trying to make her way into the group through the 12th gen. Anyways, here's what can be seen on her profile on the wikia:

Name: Cuca

Nickname: Kuuka

Birthday: April 28, 2002 (Age 11)

Birthplace: Kagawa, Japan

Favorite food: Cheese, natto, fried egg, chocolate, sweets

She also has a younger brother named Yuto and has a blog, Youtube channel, and Twitter account. Good luck, Cuca-chan! :D

Okay, here's who's next:



This is a picture of another girl auditioning. Although her real identity is unknown, she goes by the presumably fake name, Aya Nikaido. Aya was first known asking a question to Hello! Pro producer Tsunuku on Twitter; in which he suprisingly replied to, and told her to contact the agency's office. Aya also seems to take a liking toward one of Morning Musume's subleaders, Mizuki Fukumura, and also thinks that S/mileage is cute. She also happens to be a huge fan of Kis-My-Ft2 and Morning Musume. According to her, her favorite sport is dance, her least favorite foods are mushrooms and bannanas, and her favorite male talent is Takashi Nikaido. Here's what could be seen on her Hello! Pro wiki profile:

Good luck, Aya-san!:P

Here's another girl of which rumors speculate might be auditioning:



Kanae Yamaga, was a former member of the Hello! Project Kenshuusei, from 2011- 2012; two years. In 2011, Kanae auditioned for S/mileage's 2nd generation audition, but didn't pass. However, she was added into the Kenshuusei group along with Sakura Oda by Tsunuku. She was active for almost the entire year in 2012, until the month of August; her goods were no longer being sold and she became inactive for a while. Many believed that she had withdrawn from the program. Her last appearance was at a Kenshuusei event on August 6, 2012. Her profile has since been taken down from the official site; giving the confirmation that she had left the group. Rumors about her auditioning for Morning Musume's 12th gen. started on May 5, 2013 when a fan stated on Twitter that they had met her at another Kenshuusei event and had told them that she is auditioning for Morning Musume's 12th generation. The fan also stated and confirmed that she had gotten much cuter. If the rumors are confirmed as true, then this will be Kanae's last chance in becoming a Morning Musume Member. This a look at her profile:

Name: Yamaga Kanae

Nickname: Sanchan

Birthdate: May 15, 1995 (age 18)

Birthplace: Tochigi, Japan

Blood Type: O

Specialty: Cartwheels

Looks up to: Mano Erina, Nishino Kana

Who I Want to Get Into Morning Musume:
Alright, here's who I want to get into Morning Musume sometime from the Hello! Pro Kenshuusei:



Ayano Hamaura has been a member of the Hello! Pro Kenshuusei since she joined the group on July, 19, 2011. In the year of 2011, she auditioned for Morning Musume's 10th generation but failed to get into the group, but, then, on June 19 of the same year, she auditioned for Hello! Pro Egg and passed. She was then added to the group alongside Natsumi Taguchi and Kurumi Yoshihashi at the Shiodome event. In 2012, she once again auditioned for a spot in Morning Musume, but this time as an 11th generation member. Even though she made it as a finalist, she, sadly, didnot make it into the group. :( Also, she was revealed to be participating in the play CAT'SEYE in the same year along with participating in the group's first single Kanojo ni Naritai alongside Karin Miyamoto, Sayuki Takagi, Natsumi Taguchi, and Rina Otsuka. She also participated as a backup dancer during a S/mileage tour with other Kenshuusei members. During this current year, she has appeared on a UTB+ magazine along with Karin Miyamoto, of which was released on January 23. She also participated in many other Hello! Pro tours and events. Such as, being a backup dancer for Berryz Kobo  during one of their tours and performing Shuda Pichipichi with some of her co-members. I picked her as one of my candidates for a future Morning Musume because of her "cho-kawaiiness" and for her former experience in singing, events, and tours. I also think that she will make a great addition to the group because of her cute face and her "youthful liveliness". I would definitely like to see her make it into Morning Musume someday in the future. I'll be rooting for her if she considers auditioning for the group again! All the way! :P Take a look at her profile:

Up next is...:



Reina Ichioka. Reina first auditioned for Morning Musume's 11th generation in 2011, but did not make it as a member. On December 9 of the same year she was officially introduced as a Hello! Pro Kenshuusei member along with Tomoko Kanazawa, Kaede Kaga, Sakurako Wada, Yumeno Kishimoto, and Maria Makino. She started her activities as a Kenshuusei by participating in Hello! Pro tours, stageplays, and Kenshuusei events. Reina also attended a fan club event alongside Maria Makino. I chose her as another one of my Morning Musume candidate members because of her cute hairstyle, high cheekbones, and "cho-kawii" smile. Like some of her other Kenshuusei co-members, she is also experienced in the music industry and other popular Japanese media under the Hello! Project banner. Here's a look at her profile:

Name: Reina Ichioka

Maria Makino. Maria auditioned for Morning Musume's 11th generation just like her fellow Kenshuusei member, Reina Ichioka in 2012. However, just like her co-member, she did not make it into the group. But, on December 9 of the same year was officially introduced as a new Hello! Pro Kenshuusei along with Tomoko Kanazawa, Kaede Kaga, Sakurako Wada, Reina Ichioka, and Yumeno Kishimoto. So far, it looks like her only known attended event was a fanclub when in which Reina Ichioka was also present. I chose her as as my last Morning Musume candidate member because she, like all other Kenshuusei, has been involved in the music industry and other such Japanese media. I bet her charmpoint would be her eyes and hairstyle! Here's her profile:

Name: Makino Maria

Nickname: Maria

Birthday: February 2, 2001 (age 12)
