[10/10] Morning Musume : Wakuteka Take a chance

[Jessi]

To be honest I didn't really see anything in Risa until she was graduating and she suddenly started to shine. She was amazing in Renai Hunter.

[Shoujo Q]

As someone who never liked Risa. I'll tell you for what it was. For the longest time she was a coat tails idol. She latched onto to other people to make herself interesting. (Meaning, they are only interesting when other people are around.) She eventually turned into the loud obnoxious one around the time of H!M@. I think it was just born out of her reactions and to try and get herself noticed. She started to abuse the use of Uso.It got to a point where it just didn't seem natural in the slightest and that's when I just didn't care about her anymore.

But by the time Takahashi became leader, she started to mellow out and that's when she started to gain a bulk of her fans. A little late, but whatever, at least she gained a loyal following. She earned those fans. She was never one of the greatest singers either so if you're just here for the idols, she was all around a safe pick for entertainment value. As someone who cares about the singing, I never cared for her voice (As AyuHikaru put it) and her character just annoyed me.

I swear though, around her Graduation time it was like she was a totally different person. I don't know if it was responsibility or she just didn't want to be there anymore, but she mellowed to the point of comatose. She seemed nice enough in person, but I don't know. I think I'll forever associate her with H!M@ Risa.

[Chibs]

she is the straight man, tsukkomi which means she needs someone to latch on to (boke) Ai Eri Eripon Junjun even.

[Shoujo Q]

The way Risa acted, she wasn't doing a straight man routine. I think she tried, but never quite got it right.

[DARC1993]

Yall's is crazy.
Risa is amazing an she doesn't need someone else to make her amazing.
The only thing I didnt like about Risa is that she always put everything before her self.
By everything I mean the group and it's members.

It's not bad. I just wished she would have put her self before others first.
