I know this may not make me popular, but I really think Berryz boost in sales is due to C-ute and Morning Musume's boost in popularity. I'd say it's made more people interested in H!P and that's part of why Juice=Juice also had such a great debut. That said I think Rock Erotic was great and Motto Zutto isn't bad though neither song is at the same level as Morning Musume and C-ute and I think Tsunku may still be unsure of what direction he wants them to go in. It's all still experimental at this point. this single is much better than their last though and I'm hoping their next single is even better so they can shoot up to the ranks of Momo-cute!

Tuesday and Friday.
How can you grow fans from groups you work with basically in winter and summer and events between that. I think they actually got their own fans and some J=J songs.
I think Rock Erotic might be a way for them to re-define themselves, but I hope that in the future they find and stick with a style that suits them and they carpet bomb us with hot tracks.
Maybe what BK really really really really really needs is another Anime tie in. They were hot and consistent during the Inazuma 11 era. And, BK has been associated with many Anime in the past. I think they need a vehicle where they not only get to do the opening and closing themes but they also get to voice act. That could lift BK up to where they should be.
