Personally, I don't think Moe should have left the group for AKB48, that's a whole lot of wasted talent ;A; But I like ami a lot too.

Oh, I love them!
Sometimes, I watch their vids on youtube whenever I'm bored x3

Japanese kids dance groups have always been better than many debuted groups lol

OP, you made a tiny mistake. AO's birth year is 1999.

I didn't know that 2 of them are under VISION FACTORY! Fairies' juniors x3
I hope Meik would debut in an E-girls group.

Fixed, thanks for telling me. Honestly kids dance groups are the best. Unfortunately a lot dance events/competitions don't get coverage or fancams so it's hard to keep up sometimes.

I also love:

liime_arix 17th-May-2012 11:03 pm (UTC)
They're good. I'm considering to do more posts about dancers or not. Since it shows a variety of talent and styles.
yaoilicious_53 18th-May-2012 10:09 am (UTC)
Oh, please do! <3
dori_liv 17th-May-2012 04:23 pm (UTC)

phililen3 17th-May-2012 04:26 pm (UTC)
I thought they looked like babies in grown up clothes...

EDIT: Damn they can dance. But some moves I thought were a bit provocative... KESHA's song was great, except for her voice...^^

soo cute!!
crimsonbreeze 17th-May-2012 04:50 pm (UTC)
They've got a groove I'd die to have... but I'm kinda against having such young girls having their hair permed or dyed (talking about Meik).
kimiko1387 17th-May-2012 05:41 pm (UTC)
I'm torn on Meik's hair. In the first couple of videos the curl is consistant and the hair healthy, but the photo her hair seems a bit over processed. :/
crimsonbreeze 17th-May-2012 05:44 pm (UTC)
I hope they'll at least stop colouring it, because I can't imagine the damage this girl is going to have on her hair by when she's 15
queenbathory 17th-May-2012 05:00 pm (UTC)
awww they are soo cute!!
cruel_idol 17th-May-2012 05:08 pm (UTC)

yume_no_yousei 17th-May-2012 05:36 pm (UTC)
Aww! They're so young and tiny and cute! c:
brucelynn 17th-May-2012 06:25 pm (UTC)
They can dance better than most of the artists who are older than them lbr.
neen_chan 17th-May-2012 06:59 pm (UTC)
Okay am sold. I love it, also I shouldn't pay too much attention to songs or else I will be like " ... did she really say that LOL " reaction after first video.
inachan89 17th-May-2012 07:50 pm (UTC)

brucelynn 17th-May-2012 09:29 pm (UTC)

kamelover101 17th-May-2012 11:58 pm (UTC)

liime_arix 18th-May-2012 01:54 am (UTC)
My god woman, stop making everything about your creepy obsession with Korea vs Japan.
kamelover101 18th-May-2012 01:57 am (UTC)
Nah, just observing XD At least...I wasn't putting down Korea? lol.

I do wish they'd make these kind of bands but with older girls

kawaiii~ XD
they're so cool!!!
queencleopatra 18th-May-2012 07:22 am (UTC)
Seriously? They're cute and everything but I definitely would have left it for AKB. Think of the girls career.
okadarei 18th-May-2012 06:23 pm (UTC)
Wow! Thanx. On my first visit to Japan, I've spotted one of this events, and I was blown away by the way the kids danced. I didn't know about this unit, all the members look promising, they all have a career already as trainees or something that will lead them to the entertainment industry even when they graduate from this kids group.
tsukino_aki 19th-May-2012 01:42 pm (UTC)
They are amazing and talented!
And I kinda like how Vision Factory has 2 pretiest girls (IMO)
their artists have flawless dancing skills but (mostly) forever underrated.
