Oh I just remembered that Nanami was the girl who won that shugo chara audition. Now I really want Nanami to join. I know it was different girls who were the shugo chara egg when Nanami joined, but the fact that the original girls in s/mileage with the exception of Saki started as a Shugo Chara group just seems so fitting.

I STILL think C/Leavage is the best one.

Also I looked up the Kenshuusei who were in the S/mileage concert:
Miyamoto Karin, Takagi Sayuki, Tanabe Nanami, Hamaura Ayano, Taguchi Natsumi
So now I really want Nanami, Taguchi, and Hamachan! Perfect 3!

I'm interested to see how this goes. S/mileage is the group I have the least interest in. Maybe this will help me with that.

Okay now I'll add Minamina and Maria Makino to my list of possible additions. I feel like the members will be a surprise to 2nd gen, but 1st gen will have a hand in choosing.

This Basically.
But WHAT. THE ACTUAL.FXCK!
AND Hamaura ALL THE WAY lol
Team Hamaura/Taguchi/Nomura/Tanabe for 3rd gen

I hope all this KSS activity will make people more interested in them. It's really fun being a Haroken fan.
If S/mileage #2 is to become the second Morning Musume, there will be more member additions so you guys should join us

That's what I've been saying since, like, 2007. But of course nobody listens to me so most people don't know any KSS outside of the popular ones

(They're all awesome, okay.)

Mano Erina comments on recent S/mileage news
Mano Erina wrote a few tweets about the recent announcement to change S/mileage’s name and add new members from the kenshuusei program. As always, feel free to correct my translation.
(1) It’s been a while since I saw Haro!Sute. S/mileage is S/mileage, right? I think when 2nd gen members joined, the original members were perplexed, but properly accepted them. Ayacho, Kanon and the fans realized that those 4 kept giving it their all. I feel like everyone overcame a lot of things to get to this point.
(2) However. This addition and name change is casual, so I don’t think there was a failed conflict on this decision. [not sure if she made typo on the word failure? I took しいっぱい as しっぱい] Ayacho and Kanon must have made this decision because they have a lot of love for “S/mileage”. I don’t know their standpoint, but I can say they’ve become adults. I can’t meet them as often, but I’m cheering for them in a different way. ^^
(3) [This tweet was made a few minutes after the first two.] I’ve contemplated a lot about S/mileage. Around the time I debuted, they followed me as backdancers, at events and stuff they got fired up, and they supported me. In those days I had complicated feelings and I didn’t really talk to those girls too much, but now I’m very thankful and I’m rooting for them.

I really need Hamura in this. I can't see her debuting anywhere else.
Unless they're planning on a complete image change with the new members, and ditch the cute genki thing entirely to make room for Cool Hello -.-'
