To be honest that's the whole point of boygroups and girlgoups and the reason why they are popular in the first place. I'm not trying to bash them, but the formular behind those groups is always the same, especially when they are popular. It's all about the marketing, nothing more. I don't like to admit it, but I really like Momusu. Are Momusu's members more special or unique than of other girlgroups? No. Is their music more special or unique than of other girlgroups? No. They're just catchy, that's it. And I got to know them when I discovered J-Pop back then, I guess that's why I like them in the first place: nostalgia.

Avex just failed regarding a great marketing strategy for FAKY and how I see it they also didn't wanted to spend much money on them. Little promo = little success.

Personally I have to say I find FAKY way more interesting than most of those groups. FAKY after all was based on the image of cool and somehow tough girls, what was great considering all those girlgroups based on cutesy.
