What is everyone's expectations for the solo level test re-ranking? Who do you think will surprise after 30 days of preparation?

I think this type of stage is advantageous to the 3 best singers Nina, Miihi, and Mako so they'll easily be amongst the top ranks.

For surprises, I think Akari will move into the top half. She seemed like a natural performer at the Tokyo training camp although it seemed to take her longer to learn the routines.

I'm curious how lenient JYP will be towards Ayaka. They gave her a pretty generous dance and vocal ranking in Tokyo. She's was definitely the weakest vocalist amongst OT13. Hopefully there will be some significant improvement.

Akari is such an underrated gem. Her goodbye baby performance looks promising and her singing is pretty decent especially while she's dancing. She stole the show in the Again & Again performance and I think she'll do it again in the solo level test. It's sad that she doesn't have as much hype like Nina, Miihi, and Mako but hopefully, she'll start receiving her well deserved hype this season.

From the teaser, looks like Nina will not be dancing. I was hoping she will dance to see how much she has improved, but she knows that that's not her forte. I predict that JYP will comment about wanting to see Nina's dance skills.

I hope to see Riku, Riria, and Mayuka deliver a good stage.

I'm curious to see what song Ayaka has chosen to sing since it seems to be a bright song.

The second half has today's 200424 Rainbow Bride with previews of Akari's and Miihi's performance.

Ouch! I thought she would do well for the re-rank.

Yeah, that's a shocker. JYP can never give Miihi a bad review.

My feelings from their performances

~~of course right when I hype up Akari and her performance ends up disappointing.~~

I still really liked Akari's vocal tone and theres a lot of potential but she definitely struggled being able to sing and dance. Did she forget the choreography? I appreciate the effort and doing something out of her comfort zone. I agree with JYP that not much has changed. Its harsh but Akari has shown that she has a lot of potential but we need to see results.

As for Miihi her performance was right up her ally and she did well though I do want to see something more challenging from her.

does this have anything to do with the show ? Meaning deciding winners . Or just popularity check

it's like the sixteen popularity poll. it doesn't have a direct impact like say produce. it's so the fans can let jype/sony know who they like on the show and it can possibly influence their decision on who to add to the debut lineup.

Second on feelings.

These first performances feel like the "safe" performances. They get to do the stuff with their stringths. Akari/Rio doing a singing / dance routine as she isn't a specialist in either. Miihi, Nina doing singing routines with expressions as these are their safe things. Miihi singing a ballad and Nina singing a upbeat tempo song. I think if they were pushing themselves they would have done something different. Miihi singing an uptempo song while Nina singing a ballad. Rio doing voice only and Akari doing dance only. I also like Akari's vocal for the most part. She had a pretty big slip at one point but otherwise it was nice. It was also nice seeing Miihi do more of her vocal projections as in her previous routines which is why she is my #2 vocal wise after Nina and the only other one I think could be a main singer.

Nizi Project to have another spotlight on Sukkiri today.

To celebrate the start of Nizi Project part 2 they launched a Nizi Kake ranking.
1 - Go to the official site of the show https://niziproject.com/ click the profile of the girl you like.
2 - Click the rainbow button. You can do it once a day for every girl. It resets at 12:00 am Japan time.

3 - The results will show up in a daily ranking.
4 - Tweet a support message to the girl you voted for.

This tweet teases saying that JYP might use it as reference when deciding the debuting members. So my guess is very much like popularity vote from Sixteen. It alone isn't an actual requirement for debut but much like what happened with Tzuyu it might sway JYPE and JYP himself to keeping a girl that would otherwise have not debuted.
The button on the left explains how to vote. The one on the right is the ranking itself.

Also seems like another way they are trying to create some SNS buzz for the show.

...a white triangle for her pendant after her individual ranking assessment, so it does seem like there are four evaluations overall. Or maybe there are more than four evaluations, and trainees have more chances to fill up their pendant? Perhaps one or two mini challenges that don't involve the white inserts? I did notice...if they have a month to prep for evaluations, then it certainly sounds like those monthly assessments that JYPE trainees have to go through, but with fancier staging.

I wonder who's getting the next white triangle in next week's ep?

Also note that everyone has red/blue/green/gold triangles now regardless if they had them from Season 1.
