The PV has FINALLY been released on Dohhh Up! so when I saw the Hello! Online announcement on Twitter I was all over it like a rash. This is a truly amazing PV and a welcome breath of fresh air as it deviates from the ’same old same old’ style that the majority of us Morning Musume fans have come to tolerate with every release. I’m not very good at reviewing PV’s so I’m not going to bother with this one so as such I hope you don’t expect that. Well…it’s not that I’m no good at writing reviews, it’s that if I’m going to put a lot of time and effort in to giving my thoughts about something I like to use high quality screen caps (from ISO’s) but by the time those files are available everyone and their dog have written up their thoughts. I then just end up not seeing the point. Instead here are some poor quality Ai and Risa screen caps from the Dohhh Up! release ♥ Oh…and some…
…sexy boots!
(yes, I really do have a Morning Musume boot fetish…)
Another version of Kimagure Princess is up on You Tube, and I have to say, I really enjoyed watching this one.
It could possibly be because we’re treated to two (yes TWO!!!) Risa boob rubs *drooooooool* or it could just be because everyone looks great and the whole video flows quite well. I prefer the first reason though ^^
Thanks to the awesome (川*’ー’)AlwaysAi* from Hello! Online ♥
I’ve ordered Limited Edition C (with the extra covers) but it hasn’t arrived yet. I’m kinda thinking about ordering a second copy of the same version because I’m in two minds whether to open it or not. One part of me really wants to see the solo covers up close and personal, but the other part of me wants to keep it sealed for collection purposes. Gah…decisions…
As I’m trying to get back in to Berryz Kobo I forced myself to watch the PV for one half of their double A side, Ryuusei Boy ^^;
30 seconds in to the PV and the only thing that kept popping in to my head was PANS PEOPLE! I’m actually not old enough to remember Pan People, but my parents used to watch Top of the Pops 2 so I saw them on there a few times. Basically, back in the old days many songs didn’t have music videos (PV’s) to accompany them, so if the artist couldn’t be present (or if they were boring) on the most popular and famous chart show on UK TV (Top of the Pops) they’d have a group of girls dance on stage whilst the song was being played / sung. The girls never used to sing the song – just dance, and they were actually pretty good. Although in this day and age they’re more comedic then anything. Anywho…those girls were called Pans People (god knows why) and they gained quite a following back in the day.
go on…waste 2 minutes of your life ^^
Ryuusei Boy is very 70’s disco, and the dresses they’re wearing are also reminiscent of that era, so maybe the choreographer got some inspiration from Top of the Pops. Or maybe I just have a very over active / bizarre imagination! Either way I’m gonna think of Pans People everytime watch the PV lolololol. As for a review…I might try and do that some time depending on how I feel. I do like both the song and PV, which is a good thing.
About 5 minutes after I said that they need to hurry up with this PV (over in omame), the video was put up on Dohhh UP! Freaky @_@
If I have to sum it up in one word, I would use ORGASMIC!!! This is fast becomming my favourite Morning Musume PV. Hells…what am I talking about? I’ll go as far to say that this is already my favourite Morning Musume PV of all time!!!
Some thoughts in bullet point because I’m still too excited to write a proper blog post… >_<
Loving the warehouse. Reminds me of Resonant Blue, although it’s better as it’s not just barren.
Is that wooden thing in the back ground a piano? That’s pretty thought out if it is, seeing as the song opens and closes with a piano piece. Maybe Jun Jun is there playing the opening to the song lololol
Risa’s hair and expressions are fookin’ smex. They actually all look amazing (even Aika), but Risa’s really stunning. Really!!!
Ai rubbing her hands down her boobs is orgasmic. I CAME! Oh yes…
Does Koharu have an earring half way up her right ear (that’s her right)? I remember that they used to be big in the UK. You kinda just pinch them in place o_O
Aika’s first move in the first rap part is reminiscent of Yossie in The Manpower!!! Get your own move!
The rap parts are great. At first I didn’t like them, and thought they ruined the song. They very quickly grew on me though. All the members that take part in the raps do a good job.
Reina death glare…… *dead*
Ok…I don’t quite get what the outfit change is all about, but maybe if I read the English translation of the lyrics it might become understandable. Either way, I don’t mind the change that much, but I would’ve preferred it if they used the black and white outfits throughout the whole PV.
Ai with short hair was WIN, although I’m liking it now it’s at this length and not at the awkward ‘in-between’ stage. I would still love her to cut it again though *sob*
OMG! Sayumi got more than one line to sing! GETS!!!
Seriously…SERIOUSLY loving that Risa and Eri get to sing the bits ‘between’ the raps ♥ Plus they get their two solo parts one after another. GakiKame all the way in this song ^^
LMAO! Koharu just can’t be serious…ever! Loves her!
Sayumi gets a one liner near the end again. Brilliant!
The girls being sillohetted near the end is really sexy. REALLY sexy!
Gah…I can already tell that this PV is going to be on repeat. Last night I had the song stuck in my head for about 9 hours of my 12 hour shift. It actually got pushed out by ‘Incy Wincy Spider’, but don’t ask why because I haven’t got the foggiest <_< I love everything about this release – the song, the outfits, and the PV, so now I just have to hope that it does well in the charts. It sure deserves too. I’ve already pre-ordered the Limited Edition A and Commemoritive Edition. I just hope more people out there will buy it. BUY BUY BUY!
Here’s a 16 second preview of Morning Musume’s upcoming release, Nanchatte Renai. This is taken from the end of a show called Kizuna Shokudou which featured Yuko, Iida, Nacchi , Kei, Yaguchi, Tsuji , Ai-chan & Risa. I’ve yet to watch the show, but it contains beer and crying XD
Anyway…the PV looks awesome, even from this small preview <3 They’re wearing the outfits used on the sinlges CD covers, which are downright sexy (little hats included) and they seem to be in some dark, deserted warehouse. I seriously cannot wait to see the full version of this, which should be out pretty soon…I hope.
Man there’s a lot of excitement for me from the Morning Musume camp at the moment. I don’t know how much longer my heart can cope with it lol. I really hope that they produce visual screens with these outfits on. If they did I’d have to buy all 9 (yes…I would buy Aika’s!!!)
My Japanese is non existent, so when I cap TV shows or DVD's and blog about them everything I write is just my interpretation of what is going on. I am going by body language, pitch of voice and general facial expressions as to me it's more fun this way. Please do not take what I write as the absolute truth ^^
Screen Caps
Unless otherwise stated, all screen caps were captured by me. It takes me roughly twice the length of the video itself to get all the caps I desire (because I'm thorough), then I spend a long time sorting them and cropping off the black screen edges (because I'm anal). I do all this because I enjoy it and because I wish to share them with fellow fans, so I have absolutely no problem with people taking them and using them for whatever purpose they see fit. The only thing I do ask though, is that you don't pawn them off as your own!
Thanks for reading / looking at my blog. I hope you find it enjoyable
