It's been a while since I posted this and obviously I don't agree with all of my own rankings anymore. They were only based on evidence from the show and, of course, the members have much to show outside of it too. This was truly only made to show off the members to both those who love them and those who don't know them and wasn't meant to be taken too seriously (it is just one person's old opinion after all). So please just enjoy it as a compilation of THE9's talent if you disagree!

Shaking‘s vocal is underrated. She was a singer before she started rapping

The group is really full of rappers, dancers and each of their stage presence is no joke

Most ultitalented in the group: YuYan LiuYuXin AnQi

When you realize that Xin Liu is the only one who is in the top 3 for all categories..... ACE OF THE GROUP INDEED

When we already know who's the top 1 in rap category.

You know the top 1 is deserving when she's always one of the top 3 in every categories.

I think you’re underatting Yu Yan in rapping and dancing. If you find out more about her, you’ll see. Many people may say that she isn’t as good as other girls in dancing but if you watch her fancam, especially in “a little bit”, I think you’ll change your mind. She dance in her style, her moves is strong, fast and clean, her facial expressions are attractive. Performing skills and facial expressions are in the norms to assess a dancer, too; and in this case, I’d say she is one of the best idols I have ever known. Same as rap (let’s watch her singing “Black Widow, her rap is so damn good). She is an amazing performer and I think she deserves higher ranks. I don’t know why people just because they love other girls, they underrate Yu Yan. It’s not for nothing that many trainees in the show highly appreciate Yu Yan and it’s not only because she has many fans that she rank that high. Many trainees evaluate her: strong real talent, real ability. The judges say so. I think it’s because her screentime at the beginning is so little, only after viewers have their own bias, she get more screentime and rise to rank 3rd in the second evaluation . Is that the reason why many of you underrate her? I want to contribute my suggestions. I love all 9 girls, they’re so gifted. Btw, An Qi is a good singer too, you rank her in a right place in this case and An Qi dancing and facial expressions are so greattt. The strength of 3A!!! Let’s support THE9 - our nine excellent girls!

Coming from a dancer I respect your opinion but Snow Kong is someone that would be a girl group dancer for sure but I have to put BabyMonster and Xin Liu above her when it comes to technique and different dancing genres and how they pull off all of them. I like both of them but I prefer Xin Liu's dancing more than Snow Kong. Edit: At the end of the days our opinions are our opinions. I just gave my preference as a dancer myself who has been dancing for almost 10-11 years mainly all genres especially hip hop. Snow and An Qi are great they should get a dancing position as well as Xin Liu but Xin Liu is a better dancer not just an idol but a dancer to me. I look up to her to the fact here in Asia she's considered the best dancer.

An Qi vocal is so underrated, her vocal is more stable.

Everyone in this group is so well rounded! Everyone can do everything, usually above average. Especially Anqi, XIN, and Yan Yu. Even Esther is a good enough singer and dancer to debut (despite some saying she isn't ready)

YanYu is talented in every categories as she did not have proper training before the show. she trained once four years ago in another show, and when she debut in that show, she have no stage, then she stop going proper training class. She practice singing and dancing by her own in her house, as she attend a class is expensive. So, if Yanyu train like others, i believe she will be at top 3 at every categories.

I feel sad only one main vocalists made it to the group. This will be a heavy rap group. People should appreciate vocalists more

In my opinion, Xin and Anqi are both the best dancer in the team 💕

i just hope esther improves, she rlly has the potential, and ik she trained for like a month so

I fell in love with Anqi the first time I saw her dancing, she has something in the way she moves that makes you want to watch it more and more, the same with Xin Lu, she's amazing, the both of them are great and have unique styles while performing. Anyways, we should accept that everyone has their own way to perceive it, and that's amazing, Snow is great too!! So thank u so much for sharing this, I like your video :B I'm suscribed now

I know some people might be thinking "how can xue'er be above yuxin in dance" but I do see your point. Non-dancers tend to be really impressed by dance styles like popping and it is amazing indeed, but knowing it doesn't automatically make you the best dancer. Just like how xiaotang is obv the best in traditional dance and she can do cool flips&tricks, but it doesn't means she's the best dancer. When it comes down to basics like isolations, waves, angles/lines, sharpness, power, honestly xue'er and yuxin are pretty balanced. Each have their own styles, there will be moves that yuxin does better and moves that xue'er does better.

Although everybody here rejecting Snow Kong be no.1 for dance here , I will always cheering up for my baby Snow Kong. You deserve it girls 💗 Hope you always happy and healthy 😘

This is so random but I'm really happy that K Lu made it! It's nice to see two ladies with unique styles, K Lu and Xin Liu in one group! I'm a kpop fan but I really like this group because they stick to their own uniqueness and do not force themselves to conform to the standards

Honestly, I think K Lu should be ranked higher than Esther when it comes to singing. And i also feel like people aren't appreciating K Lu as much because she got the center only once and didn't really have enough screen time. Her parts in the performances were also pretty short compared to other trainees. The reason "no company" K Lu had such a huge impact is because she had more lines to sing and as a center she got enough screen time. She was finally able to show her singing and dancing skills. And also lets not forget the fact that Fanxy Red is described as an androgynous group. She is not used to typical girl group dances but still with every episodes she improved and proved that she is an all rounder. I am very proud of her. (Check out her dances as Fanxy Red and everyone will change their mind)

Honestly 9 talented girls, couldn’t have asked for anything better.

Lu Keran improved a lot with her vocals and that is why Mentor Ella wanted her in her team as a vocalist. So I think she deserves a higher rank. You can see her improvement in vocals in No Company.

Dancing rank for me 1.xin 2.an qi 3.snow/kiki

In think its obvious who's number 1 in rapping and singing. But dancing is hard I think number 1 is equally between anqi xin and snow

For me my opinion in best dancer 1. xin lu 2. baby an 3.snow kong

why are people sleeping on my girl kiki tho...she really stood out to me throughout the show

I CANT BELIEVE THAT XU JIAQI ONLY RANK 5 IN DANCING!

Snow is my ultimate bias and I prefer her dance the most, but i think Xin Liu and Anqi dance are slightly better than her, but still Snow is the best for me❤❤

Wow seeing shaking yuyan and xiaotang last in dance. They can be lead dancers in any groups. The9 is top group when it comes to dancing

I think Kiki should be in the Top 2 when it comes to dance along with An Qi

Tbh, Liu Yuxin's dance is the sharpest and smoothest among them all. I'm not being bias but her dance movements really could attracts viewers easily. Many people think that the best dancer is someone who is really energetic and can dance fiercely but I doubt that. The best dancer is someone who really can control their energy well, dancing smoothly and clean without any forced energy or movements. And that's what I see in XIN all this time. She's maybe not the most energetic throughout any performances but she knows really well which of the movements she must put the most and the least energy on it. If you watch all her focus cam, there's so many different movements that XIN add it to make it more sharp, clean and detail. I don't know how to say it anymore but Yuxin is indeed the best dancer with the best detail movements throughout the show. Don't fight me.

So basically about the Top 2 on dancing on this video means it depends on what people prefer the most. Kong Xueer is basically the perfect candidate for girlgroup dance style such as with sultry, sexy jazz style which is usually done most likely we can see Snow as the Hyuna or Soojin of the group. While Yuxin "broke" the standards and expectations of the girlgroup dance by basically doing popping, krumps or dances done mostly done by males which is actually harder cause she's a female and dances like that need to depends on every part of your body and muscle and she also got recognized by professional dancers. So it's basically what you prefer on what kind of dancer you prefer.

I like the visual part. But if they have one its obviously kiki or snow they were always hyped for their visuals

i think kiki is much a little better than k lu, but k lu is a really good dancer, i think kiki is the level of snow and anqi but her kiki's moves a little more timid than the two

XIN Liu is so tip top in all the category, well-rounded in deed!!! Except for Esther who has more room for improvement, the rest is pretty strong in their positions, imo.

Esther yu’s rap is so funny and cute

For me, XIN Liu is the best dancer followed by An Qi. If you see XIN Liu's solo fancams she feels every single moment of the music her every little pieces of movements are so artsy and delicate. She is at an another level. In I am not yours preparation she was busy with the advertisements, shoots and also REVERSE preparation so she couldn't prepare it for a long time. But she still managed to shine.

While I was trying to figure out my own rankings I realized I would put Yuxin n. 1 for dancing, n. 2 for vocals and n. 2 for rapping... I stan the right person...

I personally like Xin Liu's dancing more than Snow Kong, I find it more stable like many dancers think they need to dance really hard but for singers it's not the best way because you'll run out of breath. I think if you can dance strongly and if your moves are sharp, it definitely means you're good at dancing, but if you know how to control yourself, like if you know which move you should put more strength in and which move you should not then you're even better. But usually the one who dances more vigorously is the one people pay attention to more and thus is thought as greater. Also, Xin Liu is more skillful in various types of dance. In short, Snow Kong dances like an idol while Xin Liu dances like a real dancer.

This is my opinion based on not only from the show : Vocal : 1. Yan Yu 2. Xin Liu (She's not really showed it in the show, but I alr hear her singing in her song and when she pract. Her vocal is quite strong + really stable when dance) 3. AnQi (Her vocal is quite Underrated, but I must say she deserved no. 2 with Xin Liu.) 4. Shaking 5. Snow Kong 6. Kiki Xu 7. Esther 8. KLu/Xiaotang Dance : 1. Xin Liu (She can kill every types of dance, popping, sexy, powerful, smooth and clean) 2. AnQi/Snow Kong (Both of them have a powerful, sexy style of dance) 3. Kiki Xu/Yan Yu/KLu 4. Shaking 5. Xiaotang 6. Esther Rap : 1. Shaking (Her rap always on beat and powerful) 2. Xin Liu (I've hear her rap in the show and her previous solo song, it's so good.) 3. Xiaotang 4. Yan Yu (She's not really showed it on the show, but she can do it on AOAS 2) 5. AnQi /Snow Kong(They're like Yan Yu, but Yan Yu is a bit more powerful) 6. K Lu /Kiki 7. Esther Visual Kiki Xu = Xin Liu = Yan Yu = Snow Kong = Esther = Shaking = AnQi = K Lu = Xiaotang

To me, XIN is the undeniable top #1 dancer. Not because she's a popper, it's because she knows when to use all her strength and when to not. In Snow's I'm not yours fancam it's pretty clear that some of her circles (of hand and arm movement) are not circles, they are half-finished. The level of detail is lacking. Plus if you compare their AOAS fancam, it's pretty obvious some of Snow's dance moves are half-finished and she would move to the next move. Snow is a powerful dancer indeed but she nearly always use all her strength, she doesn't withdraw the strength when needed, so, she will seem powerful but lose some fluidity. Yes in some dances Xin may lack curvature but it also makes the whole dance more comfortable, precise, and balanced. I'm a dancer myself and the "a little bit" dance choreography is out just today. Her performance is definitely the best compared to all 10 trainees. She completes every single detail to the full extent. Most importantly, she can choreograph. This is the most important thing to look at when determining the best dancer. She also adds a small design to all her stages and we call that "killing part". A dancer who can bring out a killing part on stage, in my opinion, is very treasurable.

Personal opinion, without being bias: Vocal: 1. Yu Yan (obviously obvious) 2. An Qi and Liu Yuxin (both of them are on par) 3. Xu Jiaqi and Shaking (again, both of them are pretty much on par) 4. Yu Shuxin (if she practice more, she will easily climb above, her voice actually nice especially in NDR) 5. Kong Xueer, Zhao Xiaotang, Lu Keran (for Xueer she mostly rap, Xiaotang voice sounds too thick in NDR while Keran sounds weak) Rap: 1. Xie Keyin (Ella praised her as her ideal girl group rapper) 2. Xu Jiaqi (She's a good rapper, can wrote her own lyric, it's just she mostly went on vocal in YWY2) 3. Zhao Xiaotang and Liu Yuxin 4. Kong Xueer and Lu Keran 5. Yu Yan 6. An Qi 7. Yu Shuxin Dance: 1. Xu Jiaqi, Kong Xueer, An Qi, Liu Yuxin (four of them excell in different areas) 2. Lu Keran 3. Yu Yan and Zhao Xiaotang 4. Xie Keyin and Yu Shuxin

kiki deserves at least top3 in dancing. her charisma and charm is really no joke and she is so versatile and slays every concept. not only that her facial expressions are top notch

I'm so sad to see that people didnt appreciate for Snow's talent like come on Snow is one of the best dancer that proven by mentor Lisa and she been trained in JYP entertainment one of the big korean company years ago

When I started watching the show I knew for a fact that Baby An Monster, Esther Yu and Snow Kong would debut, they just have this charisma around them that I found amazing how easily they attract the audience even when they're not in the center. They are amazing performers, and they have so much versatility, I'm so happy for them

Kiki and Xin... stunning visuals.

exually shaking sing is better than kiki but her voice are too deep exually yu yan rap is better than zhaoxiaotang but her vocal are too good cannot go to rap yuyan dance i think in top5

Snow is a great dancer. She really is. I have watched the whole show. And I love all of them. But An Qi and Xin Liu are definitely better dancers. Snow has a great advantage. She has a great body and is really pretty, which makes her dancing look extra nice. But in terms of technique, strength and precision, An Qi and Xin Liu are much better.

YUYAN IS THE ACE OF THE9 PERIODT....

In my opinion Anqi is the best in dancing

In my opinion Dance: 1.Yuxin 2.Anqi 3.Xueer 4.Jiaqi 5.Xiaotang 6.Yuyan 7.Keran 8.Shaking 9.Esther Vocal: 1.Yuyan 2.Anqi 3.Yuxin 4.Shaking (her vocal is so underrated) 5.Jiaqi 6.Esther 7.Keran 8.Xueer 9.Xiaotang Rap: 1.Shaking 2.Xiaotang 3.Yuxin 4.Xueer 5.Jiaqi 6.Yuyan 7.Keran 8.Anqi/Esther

I respect your opinion.. But in my Opinion, Babymonster An and XIN Liu is deserve better in Dance position. And in my opinion, Top 1 is Babymonster An or XIN Liu (I can't choose them both)

i would put xin as the first for dancing :) but i agree with most of your rankings!

I was not expecting to fall in love with KiKi within the hour of learning more about the final lineup...but I have

I’m snow Kong fan but in my opinion xin liu most likely to get no.1 in dancing because the way she dance every move are so smooth so we didn’t get bored to watch her dancing it feel more natural

did U GUYS WATCHED THE WHOLE SHOW? DID YOU GUYS WATCHED SOME OF THEIR PRE VIDEOS BEFORE THEY JOINED THE SHOW? :D PS. NOT MAD I JUST TYPE IN ALL CAPS AND I'M NOT BEING SARCASTIC

Mentor Lisa to Snow: You dance like a pro. well, we can't blame her hahaha

Shaking is the best if she improve her singing skill because her voice unique swag. Nobody can replace her in raps and singing.yu yan /anqi/ yuxin have skills and tecnique but their voice not specail

I love your video especially the montage, I think we can all agree that there's no way to compare the visuals

How comes An Qi is 3 in dance position. She's #1 main dancer. Don't forget that Lisa always said that An Qi is the best among everyone. She's all rounder as well. Snow Kong should be #3 and Xin Lui #2

Actually they all are visual

I feel sad because people are underestimatimg SNOW dancing she is as good as anqi and xin she just have low self esteem and lacks confident compared to the girls.

I’m so emotional An Qi is so well rounded and talented 😭😭💓💓💓💓

What? Xu Jiaqi just 5th in dancing and 7th in rapping? You good? 🤐

1 liu xin dance switch 2 snow kong

Whatever you say I always Stan kiki❤️❤️❤️

Xin Liu..Yan Yu..An Qi..Shaking are my fav..btw I think Xin Liu first in dancing

Agree with you, but i also think that Snow is good in rapping too❤❤ Snow's dance is the best for me because her moves are more comfortable and percise

An Qi and Xin Liu are the best dancers for me. Although their dancing styles are completely different from one another. I was so attracted to An Qi's dancing. There is something about her dancing that really attracts public attention. But this group got so many great dancers. It would be really difficult to choose one for the main dancer position.

I think xin Liu Will be on top1 in dance and babymonster in 2nd

Shaking needs to practice dance more and try to reach highnote in singing, then she will be so much more amazing bcs when someone who have a husky voice and can sing high note. Y'all done 🤣

This group is really great at dancing. Really excited to see them perform together.

Dance: Disclaimer: I think the top 3 are interchangeable depending on the concept, so I chose based on my own bias. Honestly, the top 4 could all be main dancers in their respective groups. 1. Liu Xin (X Queen's weak point is sultry dances, but I think it's more mental as opposed to skill. She was the best at the low side roll in Lion.) 2. An Qi (An Qi overpowers moves sometimes, but improved on this since the audition) 3. Snow Kong (Snow's performance depends on her confidence level and mood) 4. Kiki 5. Yu Yan (her facial expressions are amazing!) 6. Xiaotang Zhao 7. K Lu 8. Shaking 9. Esther

Your judgement are pretty accurate.. especially the dancing part and most of all the visuals.

Yu yan for overall characteristics!!! She'll atleast be top 5 in dancing tho 😂😊😊

If I have to rank for dance than 1)liuxin 2) babymonster 3)Kiki 4)snow Kong 5)Xiaotang 6)klu 7)yuyan 8) shaking 9)Esther you If I have to choose Best dancer I will go with either liuxin or babymonster they are best in their own own style

Main positon of the group Xin liu center Shaking rapper Yuyan vocal Anqi dance Ester FOTG Zhao xiaothang rapper Kiki dance K lu vocal Snow Kong rapper

I think Xin should get the first place at the dance ranking coz she learned different types of dance not just for a girl group. But, yes, Snow and an qi are also good at dancing.

Liu XIN the MASTER in dancing for me, she's the best ever I could see dancing

An Qi is a full package!! Her visual, voice, rap, dance~💖

thank you for this! the dance category is interesting. i like to see their crossover performances in for references. For example in "play", an qi shines more than snow even if we took away an qi's solo part. in ambush from all side 2 where an qi, xin liu and snow was on the same team, i tend to find xin liu and an qi very grabbing audience attention, both their dance styles are different but stood out from the team, so unfortunately snow fell behind. to me, each week an qi, xin liu, gain more and more momentum since their high score audition and manage to show different side of them as a dancer. next is xiaotang as she maintains her momentum, while my favourite kiki xu and snow decreases their momentum a bit after the high score of their audition (but it's okay im still proud!). snow is an excellent dancer but with dancers like xin, an qi, lu keran that has a very strong identity and technique when dancing, she really need to find her confidence so that it dont always feel like similar vibe or dancing in a background. just my opinion tho, i love this show so much. one of the best show without any drama or evil editing (not as much) my baby yuyan is the best vocalist of all hands down and i have faith in an qi for vocal as well, her live seems stable. esther has potential, she may be a bit behind in terms of skills and experience but im sure she knows this and trains very hard. all the best the x nines!!!! p.s pls support the my baby shangguan xiai, she's not part of the team but she's amazing af huhu

I think Snow and XIN could switch for dance and Kiki and K for rap actually. Idk one of the hardest groups to rank I've seen

My opinion in the dancing category the Top 3 are 1. Xin Liu 2. Babymonster An 3. Snow kong

SORRY BUT BEST DANCER IS BABYMONSTER BECAUSE, COME ON, SHE HAVE A LOT OF FEELING ON THE FLOOR xd

This is such an all rounded group Snow Kong: Dancing Zhao Xiaotong: Average in everything Shaking: Rapping Kiki: Visual and Dancing Xin Liu: All rounded An Qi: Vocal and Dance Yu Yan: Vocal Powerhouse Esther: Improving Vocal and amazing personality K Lu: Rapping

No one is talking about Esther İ really hope she improves in her dance and vocals Atleast i can say she's the top visual and the funniest in the group But it hurts the way she's being underrated

I don't think snow is better than liu xin and an qi in term of dancing she should get n 3 , i believe yu yan rap is better than snow and liu yuxin should be n2 in term of singing

In my opinion I would prefer Xin Liu over Snow Kong on the the dance rank because Yuxin we all know she's very good at popping but I will not compare their style since they both have different style but in general Yuxin is way better for me it's just because as I've said Yuxin has a background of popping so technically she has a lot more control than snow she knows where to emphasize her moves and not go on too much,she also dance more naturally and precisely

Singing: 1. Yu Yan 2. An Qi (she doesn't get enough credit for her singing because she wasn't a main vocalist on the show) 3. Liu Xin (she needs to go outside of her comfort zone and improve her range) 4. Esther (I feel she sounded better than Shaking in Miss You 3000) 5. Shaking (she has potential to be 4th but she needs to train her vocal chords more) 6. Kiki 7. Snow Kong (Snow hasn't sang much but she did pretty well in I'm not Your's and sounded better than K Lu imo) 8. K Lu 9. Xiaotang Zhao

Vocal : Yan Yu Rap : Shaking Dance : An Qi This is fact

Woahhhh I’m actually 100% agreed with you!!!!!! You’re really good in rating them based on non biased observations. I love an qi’s voice. Very stable and sounds so good!!!

did you watch the finals stage ,you should rank it after watching it, kiki is such a good rapper,she amaze me in the finals ,i never thought she was that good in rapping ,so i think 7 is such a disrespecting rank

AnQi is an ACE ♥️

There is just to much talented trainee in this show. I fucking love the final line up but im still sad that the rest trainee couldnt debut😢 btw i agree with your dance rank. But my number one would be snow and an qi.

Most ranking on other video put Xin Liu as the best at dance followed by An Qi at second. I think definitely Xin Liu and An Qi are the best dancer in the group. Xin Liu is really good in putting additional details in her dance yet her moves are superb clean and smooth while An Qi has always give us strong performance.

For me Dance: 1. An Qi 2. Xin Liu Visual: 1. Snow Kong 2. Esther Yu Rap: 1. Shaking 2. Xin Liu 3. K Lu

Yan yu !!! 😍😍😍 slay queen

Seeing Babymonster An in top 3 in dance surprised me a lot, cause I think she’s the best dancer in the group.

Xin liu #1 dance

Kiki's dancing rank is #5? Are u kidding me :) She had been praised by SM dancing mentors.
