[5/02] S/mileage 10th single "Dot Bikini"

[Amped]

they look pretty decent in those. its appropriate for their age and it actually looks like a real group outfit for a single instead of just the generic bikinis. Smileage has class.

[Starra]

Apparently they're suppost to be bikini tops and miniskirts. Lulz.

[Amped]

Kanon now has permission to talk about the single on her blog. she talks about the outfits and her diet.

[Sohee]

Love the skirts and I hope they wear some other kind of top for TV.
The covers...dnw.
The c/w iwth Kanon and Meimi..... ugh god. ._. Please don't sound like a dying cat, Meimi, you're doing good so far.
But this better mean I get a Takechan solo/duo with someone at some point. :l

[Starra]

Meimei's voice isn't that bad.

[Panic Nancy]

I love her voice, so I'm happy. But I wish they would give Takechan a turn in the front. Not sure why they won't.

[Starra]

Because Meimei > Takechan? Idk, maybe Meimei's more popular or something.

And Takechan got lots of lines in Choto Mate Kudasai!, so at least she's not getting shafted as much as Rina and Kana.

I do wish they'd give Rina and Kana lines, though. I love them.

IT'S WEIRD HAVING A GROUP WHERE I DON'T DISLIKE A SINGLE MEMBER.

Vocal Abillity in S/mileage Ranking:
Kanon, Meimi, Rina, Takechan, Dawa, Kana

Kanon is currently S/mileage's ace, but Meimi's working hard to challenge that.
Rina is has really good vocal ability but lacks confidence at times.

Takechan goes out of breath quickly in lives, and Dawa is an overall a better performer than most of them because of her experience.

I really hope Kana and Rina at least get lines in the cover or I'm gonna rage.
