Rekochoku conducted a survey asking its users “Which female idol do you think are like goddesses?”. The survey was conducted from October 5th to October 19th. 2,307 people participated.


First place goes to the girls exploding into popularity with their songs “Ponytail to Shushu” and “Heavy Rotation”, they’re the girls who can’t be stopped; AKB48. These girls were born in Akihabara with their concept “Idols you can meet”. Currently there isn’t anybody who doesn’t know them and thus they have become national idols. Teens and 20 year olds supported them by saying, “Every single member is unique (Teen)” “They’re the first idol group you can actually meet (20 year old)”.


Second place goes to the unique Perfume who can’t be termed just as an “idol”, since they have (a unique) sound, dances and visuals. People supported them by saying, “There is no one better than Perfume (Teen), “Their live performances are the best in the world! (Teen)”.


3rd and below are as follows. SNSD and KARA both ranked, they’re Korean girl groups that have just debuted in Japan this year. SNSd has flawless “great legs” and KARA has the cute “butt dance”. Many people said, “They’re naturally goddesses.”

30 and 40 year olds showed their strong support by voting for legendary idols from the 70s and 80s; Yamaguchi Momoe and Matsuda Seiko.
