Mai Hagiwara is argued to be the greatest idol in the world based on her attitude, talents, and popularity. She is the youngest member of Hello! Project Kids, known for having a strong personality as shown when she jokingly pushed the leader of C-ute away at age 11. While not all C-ute members have the same level of popularity, Mai's singing and dancing skills improve constantly. Her voice is identifiable and enjoyable to listen to. There is also evidence from C-ute themselves and Mai's respect within Hello! Project that support her status as the greatest idol.
