Typical questions and answers regarding Nitta Eri, the iconic figure of Onyanko Club, on Yahoo Answers

Can you believe the fact that a girl with such a face became the iconic figure of Onyanko Club and the most popular idol?

Yoshino Kayoko, who was a beautiful and cheerful girl, should have been the ace of Onyanko Club, and Nitta Eri shouldn't have been the ace of the group.

Top:Nitta Eri, who became the iconic figure of Onyanko Club, and Kokushō Sayuri, her biggest rival. Middle:Nitta Eri and Kawai Sonoko, who was reputed to be the most beautiful among the members of Onyanko Club. Bottom:Nitta Eri and one of the most popular members, Takai Mamiko, who subsequently married Akimoto Yasushi.

Nitta Eri, Nakajima Miharu, and Takai Mamiko.

Nitta Eri on a bicycle, on her way home from Saitama Prefectural Fukuoka High School(It wasn't taken by a photographer, but by a local fan in secrecy).

Top:Nitta Eri and her boyfriend, on the campus of Saitama Prefectural Fukuoka High School. Bottom:They were on their way home from high school by riding bicycle.

Before the summer vacation of 1983, when Nitta Eri was a freshman in high school, she started dating a classmate who was a member of the rugby club. Nitta lied about not having a boyfriend when she appeared on All Night Fuji High School Girl Special (Episode 2) in March 1985. This was in stark contrast to Yoshino Kayoko and Tomoda Mamiko, who honestly revealed the existence of their boyfriends. Nitta didn't stop dating this boy after she became a member of Onyanko Club in April 1985. By July 1985, Nitta became the most popular member of the group, but she still continued to date him in secrecy. However, the two parted ways in March 1986, just before they graduated from high school. The boy suggested to Nitta about parting ways. He reasoned that it was difficult for them to continue dating any longer, since they were now living in completely different worlds. Nitta subsequently said that his very sensitive kindness matured her from a very selfish girl into an adult.

From the September 5, 1986 issue of the photo magazine Friday.

After the disbandment of Onyanko Club, Nitta Eri answered with a smile to popular comedian Sekine Tsutomu's extremely lewd quizzes on a radio show.

Onyanko Club's Nitta Eri and AKB48's Maeda Atsuko are often compared cuz they were the aces of their respective groups.

Q136154273 Hidden ID 2005/9/20 11:36 I don't like Nitta Eri's viscous way of speaking. Has she been like that since forever?

Hidden ID 2005/9/20 11:44 Nitta's face and figure were below par, and so was her singing. Nitta didn't at all deserve to be a celeb. I didn't understand those who said this bitch was good.

Hidden ID 2005/9/20 11:54 She's always been like that. I don't like that way of her speaking either. Does Nitta think she's lovely? She's a middle-aged woman now, and on top of that, there's nothing good about her.

Q1110249601 nan 2006/12/12 18:02 I hear that former Onyanko Club member Nitta Eri was very popular. What was it about her that attracted many guys? In terms of looks alone, there were many other girls who were prettier, weren't there? Could someone who knew her prime please answer me?

ana 2006/12/12 23:15 I think it was her ordinary-ish nature that attracted people to her. She was like a cute girl in class. People may have found such a part of her approachable. If she'd been too beautiful, many guys woulda avoided her. Also, the fact that she was blessed with a hit song called “Winter Opera Glasses” was a major factor that couldn't be ignored. She was given the opportunity to sing that song because of her popularity.

aya 2006/12/12 23:21 Nitta's most attractive feature was her pouting jaw.

Q1112192096 han 2007/7/16 19:20 Nitta Eri was the most popular among the members of Onyanko Club, so why couldn't she succeed in the entertainment industry like Kudō Shizuka afterwards?

dre 2007/7/16 19:27 I think the main reason she was so popular during her Onyanko Club days was cuz people found her amateurishness endearing. Nitta Eri was the epitome of amateurishness and was therefore extremely popular. However, after graduating from Onyanko Club, it was tough for a character like her to compete with other female celebs. In the case of Kudō Shizuka, she had the singing ability to captivate people with her songs, but Nitta Eri had none of that.

Q1424314664 Hidden ID 2009/3/19 20:01 Why was Nitta Eri so popular? I often hear that Onyanko Club means Nitta Eri, but I don't understand the reason even after watching her videos on YouTube. I often hear that her ordinary-ish nature was the secret of her popularity, but then, I think all the other members besides Nitta had the nearly same atmosphere as well. At the time I was in elementary school and accepted the fact that Nitta was a very popular idol, but now when I look back at her videos I wonder why that was. I know this is a weird question, but I'd appreciate your answers.

hug 2009/3/20 1:05 At the time, her ordinary-ish nature was said to be good, but I didn't get it. Also, her singing was laughably terrible. However, it's possible that those aspects of her weren't so bad for guys. Btw, Nitta had a boyfriend who was a classmate at her high school, despite the fact that she was a very popular idol.

yab 2009/3/23 21:23 There were members who were considered more beautiful than Nitta at the time, such as Kawai Sonoko and Takai Mamiko. However, Nitta took the most prominent position with their debut song, and soon came to be regarded as the iconic figure of Onyanko Club. Unlike the other show-off members, Nitta was laid-back in both good and bad ways. In addition, maybe the boys felt that Nitta had the friendliness of a slightly cute female student from another school.

Q1043501820 Hidden ID 2010/7/11 6:40 Were Kokushō Sayuri and Nitta Eri like cats and dogs when they were members of Onyanko Club? Can you tell me specific episodes about these two at the time?

s_s 2010/7/11 19:05 Kokushō and Nitta once had a very real fistfight after airing "Yūyake Nyan Nyan". This fight was included in the 100 best bouts on Fuji TV at the time.

Q1043532745 kai 2010/7/11 20:01 I recently read a news article and found out that Nitta Eri was the very top member of a group called Onyanko Club. I don't think she was that beautiful in her old pictures. Was she really so popular back then? Why did Akimoto Yasushi make her a center of the group? I find it baffling that she even became a celeb from being such a low-level girl. I wonder why people had to watch a girl of that caliber on TV. Her selling point was said to be ordinary-ish nature, but if anything, it seems to me she was way far worse than ordinary. I'm sorry I said that very clearly.

pol 2010/7/11 20:15 Nitta's face was average, but her singing was pretty terrible. Nevertheless, she was extremely popular. Nitta was incredibly affable, and I guess that's what made people think she was cute.

Q1245080682 Hidden ID 2010/8/10 23:48 Onyanko Club apparently was divided into two factions, Kokushō Sayuri's and Nitta Eri's. Which did you support back then?

Hidden ID 2010/8/10 23:54 I was a Kokushō supporter. As an elementary school kid at the time, I thought Nitta was fugly and also had a very weird voice. I still don't understand well why she was the most popular idol.

Q1345131098 kit 2010/8/11 22:17 Yesterday, Kokushō Sayuri and Nitta Eri, both former members of Onyanko Club, appeared on a TV program called "Confessions of the Showbiz World" and talked about each other. I watched it and felt that Nitta Eri had a pretty bad character. Nitta continued to bitch about Kokushō while laughing. I thought the bitch who wasn't shy about saying such things was Kokushō, not Nitta. I'm not of the Onyanko Club generation, so I don't know about their past. Has Nitta been like that since back then? I thought that she was an idol with an image of innocence and purity. I found Kokushō to be a more decent character than Nitta after watching the program.

Hidden ID 2010/8/12 16:50 I'm of the Onyanko Club generation. Nitta has always had that kinda personality. She sang in the Onyanko Club song, "New Membership Number Song", "Sometimes I'm selfish and annoy those around me, but they see my smile and forgive me, that's my weapon." Books written by people involved at the time also described a number of episodes of her selfishness. She quickly became so popular and the face of the group without any hardship at all, and this situation probably made her even more selfish. However, I think what she said on that show was more of a story of memories rather than swearing. The story of the rivalry between the Nitta and Kokushō factions is probably a subject for laughter now. Kokushō rather used to be a bad girl. At the time, the newspaper Mainichi Shimbun interviewed Kokushō, but her attitude wasn't very good. They therefore denounced her extensively in the paper, saying that she was cocky and had no common sense. In fact, she seems to have been really cocky, and now deeply reflects on what she said and did at the time.

Nitta was selfish and stubborn, and in addition, she wasn't good at group activities. She always hung out with only a very few of her close friends, such as Nagata Ruriko and Nakajima Miharu. Therefore, she was completely indifferent to any bullying or other problems that occurred among the other members. On the other hand, Kokushō showed her leadership as a jock girl. However, she was surprisingly jealous, had clear likes and dislikes, and was cocky. I think they were both like that at the time. Incidentally, Kokushō was pretty harsh to Yoshizawa Akie, who made her solo debut soon after joining Onyanko Club, and to Kudō Shizuka, who'd known Kokushō since before the group. As a result, surprisingly many of the members disliked Kokushō. On the contrary, I don't think there were many members who disliked Nitta. I guess Nitta had a more refreshing personality than Kokushō.

Q1445220384 yam 2010/8/13 16:18 If former Onyanko Club members Nitta Eri and Kokushō Sayuri had a real fight, who would be stronger? They did reveal their incompatibility on TV.

pea 2010/8/13 21:40 I think it's Nitta Eri, unexpectedly. During the Onyanko Club days, more members supported Nitta than Kokushō. Just being kind ain't enough to be a leader. However, in the case of Kokushō Sayuri, she's a strong verbal fighter, but seems to be able to eventually reconcile with her opponents with a smile. Nitta Eri seems to have a character that'll keep her grudges for a long time.

2010/8/20 2:48 I don't know which is stronger. However, in the case of Nitta Eri, I'd be afraid of her cuz some of her relatives are quite rough around the edges socially.

Q1247301712 tut 2010/9/19 22:58 Was a woman named Nitta Eri really an idol? She looks like a middle-aged woman in a supermarket somewhere around there now.

pum 2010/9/21 19:00 She was an ordinary girl everywhere. So it's natural that she now looks like a middle-aged woman in a supermarket somewhere around there. The normal-looking part was her selling point.

Q1048496695 ryo 2010/10/11 17:11 Former Onyanko Club member Nitta Eri openly admitted on a TV program, "I already had a boyfriend when I was a freshman in high school." However, I heard the members of Onyanko Club were prohibited from having relationships at that time. Her comment is like a blanket denial of the romance prohibition of the members of AKB, produced by Akimoto Yasushi. Junior high school students believe that idols aren't permitted to fall in love, so I feel sorry for them that she said such a nasty thing.

Hidden ID 2010/10/11 20:27 I agree. Those who say such a thing now, like Nitta, seem to think that idols are allowed to fall in love as long as they ain't uncovered. If they want a boyfriend, they just don't have to become idols, but they're pretty greedy. The idea of desiring to be pampered by both boyfriends and fans at the same time horrifies me. It was a shock for me when I found out that my favorite idol had a boyfriend. Even the old idols were like that, so I believe that today's idols definitely have boyfriends. I'm pretty sure that AKB members will be telling stories on TV shows in a few decades, such as, "Actually, I had a boyfriend when I was an idol."

Sanpo 2010/10/12 13:11 Nitta ain't negative regarding the prohibition of romance for idols. She just said that almost no one actually abided by it. Btw, Nitta's first sexual experience was when she was 13, though.

Q1349377888 Hidden ID 2010/10/27 14:47 Which is less cute, Nitta Eri or Maeda Atsuko?

Hidden ID 2010/11/3 13:26 Nitta Eri. Ever since she was an idol, I've never understood why she was so popular.

Q1149687046 sof 2010/11/2 2:11 Does Nitta Eri have a protruding jaw?

fin 2010/11/2 15:16 Nitta Eri, who sang “Winter Opera Glasses,” has a protruding jaw.

Q1450732364 Hidden ID 2010/11/21 1:16 I often hear that Maeda Atsuko of AKB48 can be identified with Nitta Eri of Onyanko Club. I'm not of the Onyanko Club generation. Therefore, I finally found out through internet research that the two are indeed similar. They both have several similarities, as shown below. "They're the face of the group, even though they ain't very talented or good looking." "They're given special treatment by Akimoto Yasushi." "They've no ambition or motivation." "Somehow, they're number one in popularity." But if they're so similar, Maeda might even resemble Nitta's bad side, don't you think? Nitta Eri's career stalled after her graduation from Onyanko Club, and as of now, she's no presence in the entertainment industry, to the point where it's hard to tell if she's in or out of the business. Maybe Maeda Atsuko will be like Nitta Eri after her graduation from AKB? It seems to me that Maeda hopes to become an actress. But she doesn't have the acting ability or unique presence to captivate people, so she's likely to work in minor supporting roles. In the future, will Maeda appear on some "what's that idol who was popular in the past doing now" type of show?

Hidden ID 2010/11/21 1:33 I totally agree. Maeda will be on such a show in 10-20 years. I think she'll be like Nitta Eri. It seems to me that the only time she can be popular is now that she's in AKB.

Q1258441627 ysd 2011/3/23 23:27 Was Nitta Eri the most popular member of Onyanko Club? I believe there were other prettier girls, but why was she so popular?

yun 2011/3/24 19:05 Ah, I thought the same thing as you. I don't think she was particularly cute in my opinion, so I've a strong feeling of why. When I heard her episodes of the time, she was extremely self-centered. I can hardly say she sang well either. I imagine that Nitta Eri was a little lispy and spoke in a sweet tone, which was why she was considered cute by many guys? That's all I can think of in her good points.

Q1059256645 nik 2011/4/2 21:57 Kokushō Sayuri couldn't win over Nitta Eri. And now that times have changed, Shinoda Mariko can't win over Maeda Atsuko. Kokushō and Shinoda are completely more beautiful. Is it still the case that plain looking girls whom we somehow manage to approach, even though the times are different, are still popular?

Hidden ID 2011/4/2 23:32 The perception that Maeda and Nitta are plain looking is correct. The reason they both became popular is cuz Akimoto Yasushi gave them special treatment and always put them in a good position. If these two ugly idols would have stood on the same ring as everyone else, they wouldn't have been popular.

Q1465592069 Hidden ID 2011/6/30 18:20 Are Nitta Eri and Abe Natsumi two of a kind? I saw a post on Yahoo Answers stating that Nitta Eri is to Onyanko Club what Abe Natsumi is to Morning Musume. Does that mean that not only Abe Natsumi but also Nitta Eri plagiarized?

sol 2011/7/1 3:21 The world consists of a pyramid structure, with a large number of the poor and a small number of the rich. I think that the supporters of Nitta Eri were rather few rich guys, and many of them were ignorant and rude guys who were at the bottom of the pyramid, such as gangsters and punks. Kawai Sonoko's supporters were the guys who've been rich and yet intelligent for generations.

Q1173479156 sar 2011/10/16 17:55 The mystery of idol group popularity. Yesterday, footage of Onyanko Club was shown on TV, and a woman named Nitta Eri was mentioned as the most popular idol. Frankly, I thought Kokushō Sayuri and Watanabe Minayo were more beautiful than her. Why was Nitta the most popular idol?

Yosentsūka 2011/10/17 6:58 I never understood why Nitta Eri was so popular back then. She was selfish and only worked as if it were a part-time job, yet somehow she was popular.

Q1495009759 cor 2012/10/2 9:29 Nitta Eri of Onyanko Club. Why was she so popular despite the fact that she was a very average girl? She recently made a TV appearance as a former idol and her deterioration was so terrible. I couldn't believe how she was able to appear on TV in spite of her appearance like that.

ich 2012/10/2 12:53 She wasn't an unreachable beautiful girl for people. Therefore, she was popular cuz people thought of her as if she were a familiar classmate. Of course, she was prettier than our actual classmates cuz she was able to be an idol. She was a terrible singer, which probably made people feel closer to her. Unlike Kokushō Sayuri, she didn't work hard to become a big star, so I guess people thought she was good because of her amateurishness. At the time, though, I couldn't understand why she was so popular either.

Q1497449854 rat 2012/11/19 14:55 Concerning former Onyanko Club member Nitta Eri. I don't mean to be rude, but I've been a bit curious about this for a while and would like to ask a question. There have been a number of programs aired in the past few years featuring idols from the 1980s. But no matter how many times I've seen footage of Nitta Eri in her prime, I've never once thought she was cute. I don't know about the other female idols of the time well, but I think they were cute. If you call it a matter of taste, that's all it is. Only Nitta looks so lame to me, even though I find other idols who had just debuted at the time and looked provincial to be cute in their videos. I don't think she even had the singing ability to compensate for her lousy looks (I'm sorry). I was a little kid at the time, so I can't even get a sense of how popular Nitta had become. Did people who knew about those days think Nitta was cute?

yos 2012/11/19 17:32 In hindsight, she was laughably provincial. She was a pretty lame girl who deserved to be from Saitama Prefecture. However, Onyanko Club rose rapidly, thanks to Nitta's popularity, and as soon as the year 1986 arrived, their popularity reached its zenith. Anyway, that was the mood of the times. It was Nitta who symbolized Onyanko Club. Therefore, Onyanko Club was positioned by the public as an idol group, like an bunch of amateurs.

bra 2012/11/21 22:24 I watched "Yūyake Nyan Nyan" back then and wondered why Nitta was so popular. Onyanko Club was a group that sang terribly, which was the norm, and Nitta's face was way below average. However, Onyanko Club gave people a sense of familiarity, as if they were the amateurs beside us. Therefore, the girls' looks and singing ability tended to be of little concern. In addition, the tremendous momentum of the program "Yūyake Nyan Nyan" itself probably had an impact on Nitta's popularity.

Q12118347582 ich 2013/12/23 12:59 What do you associate with Nitta Eri?

brt 2013/12/23 13:05 I've always wondered why she was the most popular member of Onyanko Club. Her singing was pretty terrible.

bea 2013/12/23 16:56 She was a former member of Onyanko Club and was a terrible singer. I still remember the shock I felt when I first heard her debut song, "Winter Opera Glasses."

gin 2013/12/23 21:57 It reminds me of Nitta Emi, a former porn star whose name and face were extremely similar to those of Nitta Eri(^O^)

Q12165055922 Mighty Action 2016/10/1 23:56 Please tell me! What was so cute about Nitta Eri?　 She now seems to me to be a middle-aged woman who is everywhere.

sth 2016/10/2 4:31 That's really true, isn't it? Well, when she was younger, wouldn't they have liked the "girl-everywhere" part of her?

A thank-u comment from the questioner I feel that there are many more beautiful ordinary women around than Nitta She had none of the glamour of a star. But she was lucky enough to have the right timing and to be able to sweep the world of idols.

Q11170861316 takodestakodayo 2017/2/22 18:38 Which was a worse singer, Nitta Eri or Kokushō Sayuri?

sek 2017/2/22 20:34 Both bitches were like the pot calling the kettle black. Nitta Eri was something that makes people feel embarrassed just by listening to her. I still don't understand what made Nitta so popular.

sei 2017/2/22 23:50 It musta been Nitta Eri. Her singing was exactly at the level of being noise and pollution.

Q10196443375 Hidden ID 2018/9/20 20:04 In the 1980s, did you think Nitta Eri was cute? Personally, I think Nakayama Miho and Honda Minako, who debuted at almost the same time as Onyanko Club, were cuter. Is it a matter of taste?

X_ray6723 2018/9/21 11:07 I've never thought Nitta was cute. In terms of looks, Nakayama and Honda were definitely better than her.

ara 2018/9/24 20:10 I had no idea why Nitta Eri was so popular. Even now, I still don't understand. I personally think that Nakayama Miho and Honda Minako were far cuter, prettier, and more attractive than her.

Q13231678833 Hidden ID 2020/9/16 12:36 Who would be the first to think of an idol who was popular but being not so pretty or cute?

neko1991 2020/9/16 17:44 In terms of nostalgic idols, I can say that Nitta Eri of Onyanko Club.

A thank-u comment from the questioner Nothing shows more than the fact that such an ugly girl was the most popular member of the early Onyanko Club, how crazy the aesthetic sense of elementary, junior high and high school students at the time was.

Q11242740821 om5 2021/5/5 22:40 Which was prettier, Nitta Eri or Kawai Sonoko?

sod 2021/5/5 22:50 Kawai Sonoko was far more pretty than Nitta Eri. There was an incomparable difference between the two. Inexplicably, however, Nitta seemed to be more popular at the time.

Q10244287280 1149931252 2021/6/6 17:31 Did Nitta Eri have such a large number of fan base at that time?

kyūjī 2021/6/6 22:39 I think she was the most popular idol back then. I remember her making the following interesting remarks. "My debut song, "Winter Opera Glasses" was actually written by me, not by the fucking Akimoto Yasushi!" "A fucking stalker stole my stained underwear!"

Q14251207469 Hidden ID 2021/10/18 23:35 I'd like to ask Kuma Benkei。. In the early days of Onyanko Club, Nitta Eri was the most popular by far, but what the fuck was so good about that bitch? Onyanko Club was basically a group of ugly girls, but there were relatively beautiful girls like Kawai Sonoko, Kokushō Sayuri, and Takai Mamiko from the very beginning. I have no idea why the popularity was concentrated on Nitta. It seems to me that this should be mentioned as the very first of the Seven Wonders of Onyanko Club. Looking at past Yahoo Answers, I realize that I'm not the only one who feels this way, and there're many others. I'd really like to see Kuma Benkei。, who favors Nitta, explain this. Alternatively, I don't mind if it's someone else.

no_ 2021/10/19 14:09 I'm someone else! Well, I think the reason she was very popular was cuz she seemed so normal, as a member of an amateurish group! That said, looking at her early photos, she was fugly! I started watching "Yūyake Nyan Nyan" around the middle of May 1985, more than a month after the program first aired, so I don't know about its earliest days. I definitely didn't have any special feelings for Nitta! I couldn't even imagine the fact that Nitta has remained in the entertainment industry until this very day!

Response from Hidden ID 2021/10/22 20:59 It'd be normal to feel nothing at all when you see Nitta. It seems to me that there were too many abnormal guys back then.

tak 2021/10/19 14:51 Amateurishness was her selling point. However, I wondered why she was so popular. Apparently, Nitta Eri had no interest in show business and wanted to quit soon, but managed to continue until September 1986. Her graduation from Onyanko Club was due to Fuji TV's intention. During her Onyanko Club days, she often went AWOL for selfish reasons.

Response from Hidden ID 2021/10/22 21:11 Nitta may not have been so motivated at first, but after the smoking group got fired, she seems to have gotten cocky.

Kuma Benkei。 2021/10/22 10:18 Greetings, I'm Kuma Benkei。. I'm sorry it's taken me a while to respond to you. As you pointed out, I've had a certain favorable impression of Nitta Eri. However, please understand that this is just my personal taste and also I don't represent the feelings of other respondents. First, I wanna say that I'm not a fan of Onyanko Club. I just think Nitta Eri is good to some extent, but I'm by no means a hard-core fan or anything. Compared to the other members of Onyanko Club, I think that Nitta's shyness, less like a celebrity, and more like an amateur anywhere, gave people a good impression of her. She was neither a good singer nor a good dancer, and she didn't make a particularly outstanding impression on people. I think that her ordinary-ish nature was her strength. Generally speaking, Onyanko Club was like a group of amateurs on "Yūyake Nyan Nyan", so I didn't expect them to be anything amazing from the very beginning. Under such circumstances, my favorite was Nitta Eri. She was a friendly, smiley character who made people think it might be fun to date a girl like her. Wouldn't you agree? That's what I mean. Her ordinary-ish nature was irresistible to me. She didn't seem to have any weird sexiness or slyness, and yet she was cute♪ (^○^)ｂ.

Response from Hidden ID 2021/10/22 21:12 If Nitta was an ordinary-ish girl, then there woulda been such girls in your class. I don't understand the feeling of daring to seek such a point from idols. I don't think Nitta's smile was particularly attractive compared to the other members. Also, Onyanko Club's selling point was their amateurishness, but in reality, they were a group of professionals or semi-professionals from the very beginning.

Kuma Benkei。 2021/10/22 21:29 There's a difference between ordinary-ish and just ordinary. Well, if we look around, there're certainly ordinary girls, but those girls don't always smile at us, do they? Nitta fulfilled the wish of an ordinary man who wanted a girl to smile at him. There're plenty of just ordinary girls everywhere. But they don't show us the smiles and kindness we expect, do they? They ain't very nice to us, are they? However, idols live up to our expectations. That's why they're valuable. As far as that's concerned, though, idols are unordinary. Nitta became popular cuz she was unordinary, even though she seemed to be pretty ordinary.

Response from Hidden ID 2021/10/22 22:16 I got what you meant. That said, was Nitta so affable all the time? Wasn't that only a small part from the overall image of Nitta as an idol? I could say that the act of interpreting only a part of the surface in an enlarged way is something that no one other than fans could ever understand.

Kuma Benkei。 2021/10/22 22:20 Fans tend to do that. They overinterpret to their own convenience. It's a piece of cake for them, Yoo-Hoo＼(^o^)／

A thank-u comment from the questioner I understood to some extent how a fan felt. I have to say, however, that it's extremely difficult to accept approvingly the fact that Nitta became the most popular idol, even if only for a brief period of time.

Q11266501191 asterisk 2022/8/16 19:36 During your high school days, you naturally had a number of classmates prettier than Nitta Eri, hadn't you?

Hidden ID 2022/8/16 19:49 There were at least more than five girls in my class who were cuter than Nitta. I was flabbergasted that she was the most popular idol with a face like that. She looked corny, had a single eyelid, a flat nose, dry hair, and was even a terrible singer from the countryside. She was worse than Yamamoto Susan Kumiko, one of the least popular members of Onyanko Club.

Q13297335288 asterisk 2024/5/1 1:15 Was the confrontation between Nitta Eri and Kokushō Sayuri a fixed game, like pro wrestling? I heard that it was often mentioned on TV programs that the two didn't get along during their Onyanko Club days (I don't know specifically, as I don't watch those kinds of programs). However, I suspect that such a thing was just made up out of irresponsibility to create a buzz to have Nitta, who hadn't normally had a chance to appear on TV, to appear repeatedly on the programs. Both were separate groups, but it seems to me that the two weren't as confrontational as the public made them out to be. When Nitta retired from Idol in 1990, she said the following. “I was really surprised when my little cousin boy asked me if I was quitting cuz Kokushō bullied me. There's absolutely no fact of any confrontation between me and Kokushō." Then, long afterwards, why would she say the exact opposite? That'd be just a stage direction to make the show more exciting.

pro 2024/5/1 6:19 I'm sure these two have something to say to each other. That aside, Kokushō told the following episode on a certain variety show. Nitta told the staff in advance, "I don't wanna fucking wear a bikini at the upcoming swimsuit photo session!" However, on the day of the photo session, she was only provided with a bikini. Nitta, who definitely didn't wanna wear a bikini, refused to come out of the waiting room, which apparently delayed the start time of the event. The staff tried hard to persuade her, but she wasn't convinced. Kokushō, who became irritated, rushed to Nitta and persuaded her as follows: "Unless ya show up, the event won't start, so don't be selfish and come out!" "Everyone is waiting for ya!"

On that program, Kokushō said that she and Nitta didn't get along particularly well, but they weren't bad either. Therefore, it's possible that Kokushō and Nitta weren't in fact in a confrontational relationship, and that there was no pro-wrestling-like confrontation structure. It seems to me that the people around them spread the word as if the two were in confrontation.

Response from asterisk 2024/5/1 8:36 In fact, I think it was something like that. However, according to old Yahoo Answers, the two had amusingly told each other's confrontation stories repeatedly on several programs more than a decade ago. I guess they were staged after all. Since the two were leading members of Onyanko Club, those programs were probably worth watching for their former fans.
