You know, I really don't like any of these showa and wouldn't purchase any of them unless they were the last showa in the known world. But if I were to rate them it would go D, A, C, B, with D being the olympic hopeful that sees mud again (although they all need it).

What is it that I don't like about them? I'm getting spoiled to radiant shiro, and none of these fish have it. I don't like the facial patterns and I don't like the beni much--in short, I just don't like the skin and color quality. Nothing is crisp and clean with these fish, and I don't know if mud is going to help that. Of course, wonders never cease....
