From 2014, the group name of Morning Musume will change.

Group name will be "Morning Musume '14."

Reading is "one four". Not "fourteen".


The group name will change every year.

Group name of 2015 is "Morning Musume '15."

Reading is "one five".


Thanks in advance.

Has there been any particular reason given for One Four and not Fourteen? Is this just some Tsunku-ism? Yoyocome!

[Thetan]

Fourteen would sound too similar to forty-eight?

[Starra]

No it doesn't lol.

One four sounds a lot cooler tbh.

[BerryzCelebration]

14.48. Two different numbers. Two different pronounciation.
God people,JUST because a group's name has double digits in it does not mean they are ripping off AKB.
Like,did Aki-P invent double digits?

[otaku_blue]

kinda racist but

"Morning Musume Won For Nu Shinguru "What is Love/___"

it sounds alright. i mean like im cool with the whole official dating system now.
so instead of saying eras we can be like "MM98 (Morning Musume Nine Eight) were the best cos they were the originals".

i know they're thinking ahead but what about the Y2K bug? What happens when they reach the same numbers? are we gonna go AKB style here? Morning Musume One Four II or something? Cos that'd be pretty cool but also tedious.

I guess we'll find out in 2114.

[Mixi]

I highly doubt MM will be around in 2114.

[Sohee]

Exactly.

We won't be around to find out anyway.

[yukisuki]

If MM lasts 100 years, I'll die of happiness!!

....yep.
