Time to pray for Aika

Recommended reading. At The Best In J-Pop, Rad laments Aika Mitsui’s recent hip injury, and his particular analytical style leads him to wonder if Hello! Project’s onstage presentations are too strenuous. On a side note in the same piece, he wonders if Nozomi Tsuji’s leg injury in 2006 may have led, however indirectly, to the fall of W.

(To answer one of the questions he indirectly poses in the article, Makoto Ogawa had inujured either her hip or her ankle - I forget which - during rehearsals for the 2003 Shuffle Unit performances, as she did at least two live TV appearances sitting on a barstool while the rest of Salt5 did the choreography for “Get Up! Rapper”.)
