I wished Eripon would get Sayu's position. I don't think Riho fit Youngtown.

Make sense: she's got the most radio experience out of the bunch.
If she can bring even half the enjoyment that she brings on her solo show, she'll do great.

It makes sense that she has experience, but I do sort of wish another girl was chosen so that they could get more experience. Riho already has a radio show....

it doesn't really matter, not many listen to the 1 hour and 30 minute radio show anyway.

If Sayu and Riho weren't on the show, the show would be dead. It would be just Perverted Sanma rambling. you forget that Haruna is the "another girl" on the show already.

I just don't see Eripon wanting to sit for an hour with Sanma. I'm not even sure why Riho or younger members would want to commit to this week after week. They'll have to rely on Haruna.

I really hope Eripon gets her own radio show though. She has enough personality for one, and she's a pretty good talker. I agree with Amped, I can't see Eripon putting up with Sanma for an hour.

I really don't care if Eripon gets to ever be a regular on a radio show or now. All I care about possibly more TV appearance for her. She's much more of a TV personality than a Radio personality.

Also, congrats to Riho!

Amp is right. My first thought was Riho does not fit with the show, but yeah no young girls would want to be in the show.

She's not that young anymore. She's well over 16 now, and she'll soon be starting her fifth year (yes, really) in MM.

Other younger, less experienced idols do much raunchier things to get noticed. And all of them would kill to be associated with one of the most popular and senior comedians in Japan.

We keep saying that Riho is a great performer but tends to be quiet and awkward when she's not performing. Well, this is one way for her to work on that. Having her own radio show was a good start, but it was only a start.

Sayu comments about her last regular appearance on Youngtown. She got a bouquet of flowers from the staff. She says thank you to Sanma, Shouji and staff. She was just 16 when she was a guest on the show. She was 17 when she became a regular. Now its up to Riho and Haruna keep it going.
