The other key groups: Morning Musume and C-ute both still are releasing hit singles, but we all know that they are heading in the wrong direction. Both idol groups are being cursed with extreme member favortism.
C-ute: It is obvious after their release of Shock that Airi will continue to be the star, but more so. The other members barely sing, and they don't really have any lines to themselves. Idol groups always push more lines towards the more popular members, but lines tend to be distributed to the other members as well. In Shock, even Miami didn't get any lines to herself. C-ute's members have been dropping, and they are not to add any members like Morning Musume or AKB48. C-ute showed promise to pick up Morning Musume's slack, but there is no chance of that now.
Berryz Koubou: They just released two spectacular singles, and they have multiple great idols. They do focus on a couple of girls more than the rest, but they still pass on some of the lines.
Morning Musume: Morning Musume has the same problem as C-ute and Berryz, but now their singles are lacking too. In their last single they sounded like a bunch of chipmunks. (I did like it in terms of the focal point, and you know what I'm talking about.) I hope Tsunku will pump life back into their veins. Their next PV could be hit or miss based on what I've seen so far. The fact that they are going to be a guest on Utaban could also be here or there. This could promote each girl and the group as a whole, or it can be dull like the last couple of times they showed up.
