Mako would be 1st in the singing and dancing category, probably
There's something about Mayuka's rap that is really good to watch but Rima has that strong rapper vibe
Visual is very subjective, but for the Korean beauty standards I would definitely say Ayaka

Spoiler

Yeah, Ayaka is surely the Visual, JYP chose her at the beginning basically ^^
The rap line is really strong, as well as the vocal and dance lines, they are soooo good at everthing tbh

i think miihi is extremely popular in japan so i wouldnt be suprised if she becomes face of group

Spoiler

You're right, I feel like the FOTG will be one between Miihi and Nina, it depends if they will do better in Japan or not, among international fans Nina is surely the most popular at the moment, but that could change, at the same time Miihi has the same kind of popularity but in Japan, it really depends so much on the kind of spotlight they will get and promotions they will have, I'm not that much bothered by FOTG position cause it's just about who's the most popular/recognized basically, so it'll be fine in any case, about the Center I think is definitely Miihi, many guessed Mako cause she placed first at the end of Nizi Project, but at least in Make You Happy the center was for sure Miihi uhm...
I can't help but being so excited for their official debut omg ;;

 

[Jeongyeon I Miss You]

For me, in season 1 it was Nina who caught my attention because of her great potential despite no training experience. But in season 2 Mayuka has been climbing up in my bias list. No prior training experience but her growth in season 2 just steels my attention especially her rapping skills despite no prior experience. Just as JYP pointed out her rhythm is really amazing even with a fast pace rap, her rap flow is really cool. Plus her glow up with the blonde hair colour. I can say that she is my bias now.

 

[WonderfulOnce]

If you guys would have to rank the girls in different categories, how your rankings would be?

VOCAL
1. Miihi - I agree with you. Miihi seems to be more skilled technicality-wise. She sings well and has the gift to bring out emotions from a song.
2. Nina - She sings high notes the best and most effortlessly in the group. Perhaps it's just her young age, but she lacks where Miihi is good at in terms of being able to bring out emotions in songs that require it. I look forward to her growth as a vocalist since she definitely has the potential to become #1 on day.
3. Riku - Her Heartshaker performer really solidified my opinion on Riku's vocals. The song isn't easy to sing, and Riku did a great job covering her lines, I was thoroughly impressed.
4. Mako - I would like to see more of Mako's vocals, but I do know she can sing well. Not much to say because I would like to see more of her singing.
5. Maya
6-8. (in no particular order) Rima, Mayuka, and Rio - I'd like to hear more of their vocals to place them.
9. Ayaka

DANCE
1. Rio - She's 1st solely because I've seen her pre-debut dances and I just love the dance style and power she gives. She has great skills as a dancer, and if she was in a kpop group, she would easily be placed as one of the top kpop dancers in my list. However, I think she struggles in adding a feminine element in dance routines that need it.
2. Mako - Not as surprise at who's next. A good dancer even before she became a trainee. The reason why she isn't 1st is because I would like to see her dance when she isn't performing a kpop song. I want to see Mako dance when she doesn't have to follow kpop song. Her advantage over Rio is her time as a JYPE trainee and her ability to dance femininely while being powerful at the same time. #1 and #2 are definitely neck to neck though.
3-7. (in no particular order) Rima, Miihi, Maya, & Mayuka - I need to see more of their dance.
8-9. (in no particular order) Ayaka & Nina - I need to see more of their dance.

RAP
1. Rima
2-9. (in no particular order) Mayuka, Maya, Mako, Rio, Ayaka, Miihi, Riku, & Nina - I need to see more of their rap skills.

VISUAL
My personal favorites are Rio and Ayaka.

BIAS
I don't have a full sorted list as I like all the girls, but my personal biases are Rio, Ayaka, and Miihi.

BONUS: Most Improved (from Season 1 to Make You Happy)
Ayaka, Riku, and Mayuka

Mayuka has grown so much since her Dalla Dalla performance, she came out of nowhere in the final of the first part of the show and since then has shown so much star potential. I was so happy she made it to the final lineup

 

[🔹 MAYUKA 🔹]

Vocals: Nina, Miihi, Riku and Maya

Dance: Mako, Mayuka, Rio and Rima

Rap: Rima and Mayuka

Visual: For me personally it’s Maya and Mayuka.

Bias: Mayuka

Most improved:

Ayaka - If you want an example of hard work Ayaka is the example. I was pretty tough on her watching the show lol (sorry) but seeing her improve and grow throughout the show despite her lack of skills was really nice to watch. It’s amazing since they only had some months to train too.

Then I’d also say Rio, Maya and Miihi. After Miihi’s ‘Nobody’ performance she stumbled and lost some confidence in herself but she used that as something to grow from.

BIAS I don't have a full sorted list as I like all the girls, but my personal biases are Rio, Ayaka, and Miihi. BONUS: Most Improved (from Season 1 to Make You Happy) Ayaka, Riku, and Mayuka Spoiler I really appreciate the time you spent to write it down, it's really funny to know other perspective and point of view~ About the vocals there's to notice that Miihi and Nina are almost the same age, I just think that in the S2 Miihi was already able to express more easily the emotions while singing so she was more confident with it, Nina probably in the short time she had training before her solo performance wasn't already fully able to do it so she chose to showcase more her range and powerful voice, I think it just make sense from her point of view but for us it leave more questions about her true potential, there's to say that Nina has a really good musicality, I think she could be a good composer in the near future, maybe with some help, I really love her creativity tbh Riku is really so amazing, I remember when I first saw her in S1, she was so cute but also showcased her "fierce side", she's really good in everything she wants tbh, also I strongly think that training under JYPE really boost your talents in so many ways if you are passionate about it, and as you also said, Riku, Mayuka and Ayaka were the ones more passionate about it, I think Mayuka find pretty much late her rap potential, when she tried to rap in Like This her tone was fine but she wasn't truly rapping, and in Dance the night away she was still unsure, and the rap itself in the song is kinda bland tbh, so she wasn't able to showcase her potential even there, It's really crazy how she only needed to be in the same team as Mako to realise and understand her capacities, and starting from Heartbeat she really shined so much, her rap was lit and also her chemistry with her team was unbelievable tbh. I'm going off topic lmao srry. As you said I also think we need to see and hear more from them, but we'll have time for it, i'm pretty sure we'll be well feeded. Uh also I understood what you said about Rio's dancing, I saw her pre-debut dances too, and she was really amazing there, I think it's really hard to tell who's the best dancer between her and Mako for now, not that this should matter, it's almost the same case with Itzy's Chaeryeong and Yeji, very similar, maybe it's a JYPE thing to always have two legendary dancers in a group. I strongly think both of them are among the best dancers I ever saw tbh, and they are also soooo young ;; They'll be even better with time, I'm going crazy, help me.

Spoiler

Tbh my big big big problem with S1 is that we all hadn't the possibilties to see and hear more about some of them (and also I'm really really confused about the rankings in S1, they seem so messed up knowing how good some of them are and also already were), for us Mayuka came out of nowhere in the final, but for them not really, she maybe wasn't interesting until the end for them, idk, but I'm really glad she slayed with Dalla Dalla and that JYP saw her talents!

Am I the only one who wish to see and hear the performances we missed from S1? ;;

Totally! There were some contestants that we couldn't even see any performances, like Funa, Mei, Rei, and more! I was rooting for Suzu but the fact that she just gave up and took the chance out of another girl like Erina, Miu or Moeno pisses me off

See??? You also know how good Mayuka is at dancing *^* I'm so glad~~
And also you have taste omg, Mayuka's really gorgeous jsjfksfk, did you saw Maya in her M/V Making Film?? She was glowing sjfjskf
I also was tough on Ayaka tbh, I wasn't feeling confortable listening to Very x3 cause of her bridge ;; but it's not even her fault tbh, it was more the post production team who ruined her voice in S2, she was more quiet, maybe not hitting the right notes, but fine to hear ;;
About Miihi, I wish she could be healthier, I'm pretty sure her weight loss didn't happened just cause of her teeths situation, she was seriously stressed for half of the S2, I think more for the others than for herself, she's really a sweetheart ;; I hope she eat and rest well, everything will be alright, she have to realise that we all are by her side, she needs so much love as well as the others ;; ❤

Spoiler

There's something to say about that, the number of the girls who were going to Korea wasn't fixed, so Suzu didn't really took someone else place, JYP (and also Sony maybe) just didn't saw that much in the others sadly :c
Judging from the team performances in the S1 end I can certainly say that many of the girls who didn't make it to Korea had soooo much potential (i'm so happy for Ririka hehe), like Miu, Kako, Ayane, even Kyoka, her dancing was so good to me, but we have to just accept the fact that JYPE and Sony weren't interested in them, so isn't Suzu fault ;;
Basically if Suzu wasn't there JYP would have taken just 13 girls (as he did in the end lmao), and that's it ;;
Also about her, Idk if it's true or just a rumor but many people/fan always said she didn't came to korea cause of her parents, that's really sad but it's understable :c

 

[unicorn]

their official debut is july 30 right?

i just finished season 1 of nizi project, i cant believe mayuka first screen time is ep9, getting all 3 cubes with one performance? mayuka all kill!!!
i hope she has more on season 2 (no spoilers tho, even tho i already know who made it lol)
i will watch it soon enough
just lmk if she has screentime



and i watched all of the autograph videos so sad im late to vote, i love how mayuka only used 1 paper to practive 2 autographs
she cares about the environment <3 she is the answer to climate change <3
all of their autograph are going to take a bit long to sign bcs its basically a drawing LOL they're so cute

i found it so funny how Nina both autographs are exactly the same its just that one of them has face LOL

Yeah, she has more screentime in S2, dw!~
Btw, Make You Happy M/V is just a pre-debut release (they released an EP that include 4 original songs that they performed in S2, but basically with the final lineup), their official debut will probably be on November! ^^

owo okay mayuka might also be a bias wrecker im confused theyre all so cute
i really like her rap on make you happy, shes good

is there talk about them debuting in korea also? bcs they have KR version for make you happy

 

[NoMayukaNoLife]

I'm not sure, probably nothing for now, but Make you happy KR ver. Assured us they will also make their debut in Korea, maybe after a year or two, or just some months, it depends on JYP and Sony.
Tbh I wasn't expecting Make you happy KR ver. That was really a surprise, even more considering the fact that among them only Mako seems consistent in Korean, followed by Rima and Miihi, the others still has to learn more (even though I think they are already immersed, for example Rio said a Korean word in their autograph video, how cute she was wjrjjwfj), but they did so well in the song for what I know, Korean speakers were impressed!

During Season 1 and at the beginning of Season 2, I was also tough on her. She is obviously a pretty girl and fits so well with the KR beauty standard, but I didn't want someone to pass just because they're pretty. I think many viewers had the same thoughts too. However, what made her eventually become one of my favorite contestants was due to her work ethic, results, and honest self-awareness of her skills. Throughout the show, Season 2 especially, you can really see how she improved her dance/vocal skills. I remember her promising to work hard to improve in Season 1, and she did exactly that. It wasn't just an empty promise. While she may be behind compared to the other members, I have no doubt her hard work and determination will pay off even more in the future.

Ok, that makes sense!
I don't know if it was because of her parents, but Suzu always seemed very unsure of what she wanted for her future and spend 6 months in Korea to MAYBE get the chance to debut sounds risky for someone who's was already attending college in Japan

Ayaka is a sweetheart and a hard worker but yeah, she mostly made it because of her beauty. In my ideal final lineup, I would swap her or Riku for Akari, tbh

Spoiler

Akari much probably didn't make it cause of her health problems, not only these problems didn't helped her in the show but also made JYP worried for her health in the first place (that's probably why he decided to not make her debut with NiziU and let her come back to Japan), being so young and so far from home with these kind of problems would have been even more tough for her, 6 months were already so risky, but yeah, I agree about her talent, she was one of the best vocalist in S2 tbh, in the last performances her facial expressions reminded me of Jennie lmao, I think if she manages to be fine and healthier she will surely find her own way to be satisfied and happy, in the music/idol world or not ^^
