I saw their intro lines translated and I must say that they are super similar to the DS idols, especially Sakura.
Really? I can see Sakura, but... well... While I love Eri, Izumi looks like she has a LOT more social skills and confidence, and Ako is... well, she seems nothing like Ryo at all, even ignoring the whole "She's an actual girl" thing. (Also, Ryo would be/should be Cool-type. Ai is basically Passion-type, but would probably be put in Cute since her color's pink and she's kind of an expy of Yayoi and everyone thinks she's an expy of Haruka. Eri kinda fits in with Cool, but I'd put her in Cute because of the shy thing. But she'd be put in Cool, I'm sure...) Of course, she seems a bit like Ritsuko, but with a genkiness level of 500 milliyayois. (Yes, Yayoi is now the metric standard of genkiness. But a yayoi ranking above 1 is almost never heard of outside Kirari, who has roughly 2.5 yayois. /stupid joke) Also, Sakura looks like she's a lot calmer than Ai, which is a good thing, right? (And if I'm being honest, she's really cute. Look at those pigtails!)
Where did you find their translated intros? If you can't find them again, in what ways do you see them as similar to the DS idols?
