    I guess it's just a matter of perspective. I mean for me (and to some people's mind), both King and Queen ranks the same, and the only difference to me is that one is male and the other is female.

    But here, callin them King seems to have no gender to it, it's just about being the Best/Highest Rank among all.

    No, they have separate words for kings and queens. It's probably the pro-wrestling tie in, but an alternate explanation would be that back then no one on their staff spoke English (their English content was full of all kinds of obvious errors ).

    I meant (at least in the idol world) using the word "king" in english for females too. It's not just Momoclo who uses it that way.

    Her name is Yui Makino (牧野由依), nickname Kanipan, and she's in charge of the fanclub.
    She took part in the curling segment on Momoclo-Chan a while back.

    Kanako almost beat an Olympic silver medalist ping-pong player in a hand-eye coordination test:



    You don't see much more of her, other than she asks a few more questions here and there, but it's a pretty interesting show, if you like sports.

    There seem to be three different OP and ED songs.
    Three different kinds of OP and ED videos will be probably produced and will be used.



    Yakushimaru Etsuko Ban(ED:eternal eternity) reaches 21 in oricon daily ranking.
    I hope that Momoclo reaches a better position...

    I agree the song is nowhere near as inmediate as Moon Pride.

    I think is too "ani-song" sounding. Which im not sure if that makes sense.

    I know some Mononofu didnt liked it either . Personally i love it and cannot wait to hear the MCZ version. But then again i didnt like Moon Pride so im probably the oddball here
