S/mileage went from smiles to tears

On December 17th, S/mileage has announced their new group name, ANGERME. The name was thought by 2nd generation member Kana Nakanishi and it is combined by two french words meaning angel and tear. Okay so, what did I think about this when I first heard about it? It felt very weird because I'm so used to the name S/mileage and to me, it just already had so much meaning to it and it was just a group name that I really liked. To be honest, I didn't even want them to change their group name at all. I think it was fine just the way it was. I understand that it was Wada and Fukuda's choice to add new members and change the group name and I'm surprised that they were even thinking of things like this but, it's just something that from a fan's perspective, it's kind of sad in a way. To end this post, I hope that ANGERME will be able to become a successful group and be a strong group.
