Most of the JP comments I’ve been seeing is how they’ve only focused on 18 out of the 20 finalist, ignoring Momona and Kokoro. I hope this motivates them to vote harder since the editors can’t hide their biases.

I didn't even think that video was even worth posting or watching even. It just shows them crying. Momona doesn't cry (except that part when the fans called out their names)

In the new Produce 101 Japan The Girls Official photobook release, there was a questionnaire, and the trainees were asked who their admired person / role model is :

Kasahara Momona did not say a KPOP idol's name, she said "My role model is Wada Ayaka. Wada's words had saved me alot."

Momona striving be a strong leader like her.

Kaasa said something similar on her blog when Wada Ayaka graduated.

The Japanese insta and YouTube comments are full of outraged Momona and Kokoro fans. Most are calling out the editors for the obvious and extraordinary bias of not giving a solo cut to just 2 of the 20 trainees (and not just any trainee but the number 1 ranked trainee). But some are thanking the editors for lighting a fire in them to vote more and convince others to vote for Momona.

I think the suspicion about bias against Momona from the program editors is pretty obvious and undeniable at this point. I really hope Momona get the number 1 spot to spite the program editors.

Well, almost 12 hours remain until the final episode. Wonder if Keiko and Ebi are going to make it.

Kasahara Momona's Poster



On the last day of the training camp in Korea, the trainees receive a gift. Look forward to seeing them shine on stage!

Here is the moment where they revealed the new photos with the submitted fan art and got Korean face packs from staff and danced before going to bed.

Momona and Keiko took the initiative here. Momona and Aita Rin are good friends.

Guess what?! Ayane didnt talk in this video :hehe:

Tomorrow is the big day.

#1 Kasahara Momona. Congrats! She did it! We did it! She is the only finalist to get 1 million votes.


#2 Murakami Rinon 700,000 votes

Takami Ayane fans underestimated Murakami Rinon fans.

Momona also cried for her KPOP School classmate Shimizu Keiko.

Momona's rebloom teammate Kato Kokoro got in at the final #11 spot. Momona hugged her, but the TV broadcast was running out of time and it was rushed.

Their group name is officially "ME:I" ミーアイ (taken from the words Mirai {future} and Idol : Mi+Ai)

official site and social media and Fanclub
