[+1,077, -191] Why are people becoming more and more Koreanized lately? I think they look beautiful with makeup on, but I find them a little scary, regardless of gender


[+411, -82] I think many of the members are good singers. It's going to be a completely different group from JO1


[+378, -120] Kobayashi and Nishijima who failed this time should debut somewhere other than Japan, they have enough potential to become bigger than INI. Toma and Kaiho are the type of people who can succeed in anything, even if they're not idols, so I hope they'll be happy. I hope Terao and Okubo will do well in their exams this year and go to good schools. I'm sure they'll succeed in their exams because they're both hard workers and can handle anything


[+306,  -64] I don't mind voting, but I don't agree with people being chosen based on face alone, not on ability. If they are aiming for the world, the opinions of professionals should be considered


[+164, -74] People usually selecting members based on their ability to compete globally, but every time there are a couple of members that I don't agree with that are chosen just because of their face, so I end up getting disappointed. I don't mind if it's only for domestic idol activities, but that's not what they're aiming for, is it? I don't like the way the public votes. I was a little disappointed at the end of the first season too. I'm not sure what to think.


 [+145, -42] I voted every day. I always thought that Renta would make his debut, but he didn't. My oshi made his debut, but I feel really bad about it. It doesn't add up, but I feel depressed because I wish I had chosen Renta for the one pic that doubled up at the end...


[+140, -20] I happened to see it without knowing anything about it, but the change in rankings was incredible. I also learned that this kind of face and appearance is popular these days. I even thought that JO1 was a Korean group in the first place... Time has changed in the definition of good-looking people, hasn't it?


[+134, -76] Please don't give in to the pressure from Johnny's and do your best


[+130, -23] I thought it was great that someone who was ranked 17th last time came in second. However, I think that once they debut, this ranking will probably be completely meaningless. I hope that the group will work together to reach the top of the world.


[+115, -61] Why go to the trouble of making it look like a Korean? But I think it's because they admire KPOP. I think Japan doesn't have the kind of idols that today's young people aspire to.It's frustrating, but it's easy to see how low Japan's level is compared to Korea's when you take just one music show. Korea has a high level of dedication to creating a good stage, and is highly recognized around the world.Since they won the hard audition, I expect them to be globally active as a Japanese group, incorporating the best parts of KPOP


[+114, -27] I voted for Nalu-kun so it was sad that he didn't make it. I wonder if Nishijima-kun's 1 picks were to little or maybe everyone thought he would be fine. It's a shame since he seemed to be important for the group. When I see JO1 then those who didn't make it i realized how important the agency is so I hope Nishijima gets scouted by a good agency. Congratulations to all 11 who made it


[+114, -34] Masaya Kimura... Even with makeup on, he has a very Japanese face. If he's the center of the group you can directly see it's a japanese group??


[+111, -34] How is it possible that Renta-kun was not called?


[+94, -19] Why not Renta-kun? Is it because of one-pick? You must be joking


[+88, -20] Renta-kun deserves to make his debut! Eh? I was surprised that Renta-kun wasn't called...


[+85, -6] I was so surprised that the rankings changed so much
