S/mileage new member audition!

[iceymoon]

by the fact that sub-par members are officially part of what used to be one of H!P's best groups? yep.
though i'm sure they'll grow better over time, it's gonna be painful for a few singles. :<

Ugh. Disappointed mostly because it was so painfully obvious - which was why I didn't expect it? - but also very boring.
Also, Meimi and Rina. ugh.
But at least I got Takechan. And now have 4 members I super-like and I like Kana enough.
Rina and Meimi will just be ignored.

[Moh]

Y'all will get over it eventually.

[Sohee]

Sure. Kana will probably be a favorite soon enough. Rina might get less boring in half a year, and Meimi might be less of a annoying, loud brat and more like normal person in a year. Hopefully by then she will have learned how to sing well, too.

[Mirai]

I had a feeling that they'd all get in I'm fine with it, actually. Much love to Take-chan, though, she's my fave

[321BreakinOut]

Wooow, are people really bothered by this?

YES

Haters gonna hate, Meimi, good for you!

I think I like Kanana a lot too
