Kanana, why did you ANGERME?

[Bossy Zunu]

Spillover for the ANGERME ANGST.

^^^Fair enough. Doesn't change the fact that they'll probably shove "Angerme" in our faces from now on so I still think we should go with that, unless we of course start going with katakana or anjurumu. Which, if anything, will just looks more weird since we'll never /see/ it that way. Just like we never saw "sumaireeji" nor "Mooningu" etc.

but the official name is アンジェルム

Stop calling it アンジェルム already.

(I don't really care how people call it; it's just ANGERME/アンジュルム for me. If English-speaking people need to make up a word to make it easier for them, I don't mind at all.)

Oops, cut-n-pasted from the wrong post, lol. orz

Makes sense, but like I said, whatever Amped (or whomever) does in their own thread is gonna wind up being the way it is.

I laughed out loud when I heard MC Aika introduce Morning Musume as
Morning-goo Musume.

I don't know Japanese and I don't know French so basically I'm screwed.

Or perhaps アンジュルム = Ange Rum (or in somewhat more proper French, Ange Rhum), although アンジュ does seem rather close to "Anjou" (the former duchy, and currently the department of Maine-et-Loire).

So obviously, アンジュルム refers to a bunch of tipsy angels flying in the sky over Anjou while drinking imported Martinique rum. It makes perfect sense.

Actually I kind of like this too.

[Amped]

are you done now? how long are you going to use two threads to discuss this?

Test post:

How much anger could ANGERME anger if ANGERME could anger anger?
