I think its when she becomes more confident, and stable then thats the moment they'll decide to graduate her.
I even think its possible she could graduate early 2016 to late 2015 just because of how independent she is lately and how successful it's all been.

I can't imagine her of all people having a solo song though. :s

[Chibs]

the perfect name for her solo song honey & chocolate lol

[Starra]

I really don't think we'll be seeing any more graduations until 2016 at the earliest... or at least I hope we don't. Then again, next year will mark 4 years since 9th gen joined, and several members have graduated after only 4-5 years... but who knows?

Also how many times do we have to have this leadership discussion?

[wotakubrandon]

For awhile it seemed like the average was 3 or 4 years but since for awhile now girls have been staying longer and they're all so young as well. I hope most of them are in for the long haul.

[Chibs]

^^till we know who the leader will be, it is all wishful thinking as we dont have any influence on the outcome

[jeiwa42]

^ Quite true. TeamHaruna, though I wouldnt mind Mizuki either, but I feel Haruna needs the push a bit more, and I think she's very vocal and capable enough, as well as the eldest, which most of the time was the pattern (I know there are examples the would go against that). I'm glad things are going well for her though.

[Jessi]

I'm team Mizuki but I have all the love in the world for Haruna and would probably love a duo leadership more than picking between the two. We should do a poll just for fun to see which is more favored to be the leader.

The girls have been young since the beginning though (except Yuuko, lol). 20 members joined when they were under 15... out of 34. Unless you mean that the lineup as a whole is young, in which case yeah.

[wotakubrandon]

Yeah I meant the latter. Asuka was only 12 or 13 wasn't she?

[321BreakinOut]

Haruna for leader !!!!!!
