Smileage should be disbanded. At this point it's obvious the 2nd gen has failed, or perhaps this entire mini-skirt lolicon experiment was a bad idea in the long run.

Smileage was okay when it was a fresh group of cute, energetic, noisy kids among mature H!P. Problem is that Morning Musume has pretty much taken that role now and is stealing all their air. I mean even their average age is lower.

On the other hand Berryz is on the brink of disband for the opposite reason. They're old, tired, worn-out. It's obvious they don't care anymore.

The only upside is C-ute. But if MM is actually incapable of beating them in sales for this single it will generate quite a civil war for which should be the front of H!P. I mean if the "Morning Musume" brand shows itself useless, they could start reconsidering the entire business.
