I like knowing Murotan auditioned for S/mileage before. It makes me happy that she has joined now. Its the same way I feel for Maria and Akane. It just feels right. I also love when the girls are huge fans of the group... which is why Maho wins me over <3
Also I think I like the 3 new members more than I like the rest of the group. Its like my list of favorites is now Meimei -> New girls -> Everyone else.
