ANGERME have welcomed a new member to the group!

The new member is 16-year-old Kamikokuryo Moe. She passed the "2015 ANGERME New Member Audition" held back in July.

Kamikokuryo's admission into the group was a surprise announcement on November 11 at CLUB CITTA' (Kanagawa) during a release event for their single. She received a warm welcome from her fellow members and fans that she shed tears of joy on stage.

Tribute Time

Ayaka & Kanon

They grew up before our
Very eyes

We knew them
in S/Mileage

And in Angerme

They made it through the departure
Of their two best mates

Without dropping a beat (in front of the fans)

From ビキニ to 制服

いつもありがとう

^ that was a very nice appearance for Kana chan and Maho chan..
They work well together....

Kana talked about how excited she was to meet her S/Mileage
idols when she became a member...

Truthfully, I don't think Kanon was initially that impressed
by Kana, but by the time of her graduation concert,
She recognized that Kana had an extremely hard working
and honest approach to every thing she did, and the fandom
became mutual

And Maho is learning from Kana- work hard and be yourself...
and the results are pleasing!

Tall and talented!

I am usually pretty good at asking dumb questions, so this may be another one... but... here goes anyway! I trawled through this thread to see if I can find anything already posted... anyway...

It seems that Angerme have abandoned doing Dance Versions / Dance Promotion Edits of their releases. The last seems to have been the February 2015 release, and none of the three releases since then have had them. For me the dance versions were always a highlight of S/mileage, and I think it's a great loss to not have them anymore since Angerme's first release under the new name.

So... did anyone see any official announcement / information about this? If not, are there any ideas what happened? Just budget cuts, or is there some artistic reason they may have made this change?

They may be a highlight to you, but are S/mileage's Dance Versions edits just as popular on Youtube & Niconico when it comes to number of hits? If not Up-front company may just see it as a waste of time

sayumi_fan · « **Reply #418 on:** May 24, 2016, 12:04:42 PM »

^ Yeah, good point... looking at past posts where they had both versions, the Promotion Edit rated between 3 and 5 times as many views as the Dance Shot. Strange really, but if that's how The People voted with their feet, I guess it's understandable those versions died. Economic reality over art. Still a pity.
