lol exactly. It's been mentioned again and again that there's only a few exceptions when it comes to idol groups being popular which nowadays is just AKB48 and Arashi, everyone else is pretty much on life support. Just look at H!P's sales and they've been around a lot longer and arguably have a wider selection of groups, soloists, archetypes and fresh, attractive girls. It's obviously something else other than the superficial. They're the same groups and people they'e always been even before they were popular, people have just taken a strong liking to their music now. I don't see why that's so hard to believe.

Oh, I don't find it hard to believe at all. I'm well aware people actually like their music, but it's obvious that popularity plays a role, and I think it's a foolish choice no matter what. But then again, I've never really been into pop music at all. And pop means... you know.. popular.
