Kind of agreeing about what I hear in some way. Yes, I am quite a fan of AKB48, but as someone said "replaceable", I'm not sure how AKB48 will contribute long-term, because the Ayu effect is very long, while AKB48's replacability kind of questions me how long this will last, and I do have a feeling that some day (yes, some DAY) AKB48's popularity will start to decline...

But when I want to compare with Johnny's...which group should I compare with Ayu? Probably SMAP or something? (And what's the difference between AKB48 and Johnny's, and what differences do they have in terms of how it contributes to the Japanese pop music world yesterday, today and tomorrow?)
