    I like the old flavour the song has.

    But those outfits.
    I guess this was more a promotion for the drama than for the song itself (hence Kaotan and Shimada there), but still. Ugg.

    What disappoints me is that we get yet ANOTHER dance along song.
    Like, STOP TRYING TO MAKE KFC 2.0 HAPPEN!!!
    Also, if I were the choreographer I would ask not to be named.

    I understand that after the woooooow surrounding Keyakizaka's Futari Sezon they want to jump into the wagon, but this is not doing it.

    AKB is turning into the Madonna of the idols.
    Once a trendsetter, not just a follower.

    Still, nice song.

    Sure she did better back in the day, but she checked out a long time ago and hasn't tried since.
    I remember her in Kibouteki not even caring.
    And the first KnP performance where she couldn't even lip-sync properly.

    I wonder if we'll ever get another good dance number for an a-side.
    KazeFui and UZA required the girls to practice a lot, and with everything the girls have going on these days it seems they just can't bother, even though it's the singles themselves the ones giving them the money.

    . . I wonder if it's just me.
    But this is the first single I'm debating about whether or not to spend money on. :p I'll give it a few tries. But I honestly wanted something yuuhi wo miteiruka style for Kojiharu. The costumes. . really don't work well together,they clash even more than the huge fur bad colour schemes of HT. All hopes on the grad song.

    I believe the choreo has been terrible since KNP (2014). It's definitely not Kojiharu's fault, it's the choreographer. I'm sure if she had a say in the matter it wouldn't be like this.

    edit: Ah, Rurouni already got to it.

    I don't know what you're talking about, LOVE TRIP choreo was great, and High Tension was pretty energetic.

    Better (well, less terrible) video quality for those who care.

    OMG Shimada wat.

    The choreo is unimaginative but it's not terrible IMO. The problem is the first few seconds are complete *&@(*$, doesn't even look like dancing, so it puts you predisposed against the rest.

    Please, go back and count HOW MANY PEOPLE have complained about Kojiharu for the dance.
    One or two don't count as EVERYONE.

    Speaking of Costumes, I am seriously wanting a river style throwback costume. Hopefully for the 49th because I want swimsuit 48th

    I like the song and the costumes are okay.
    The song fits Kojiharu and the costumes aren't bad for the wrestling theme, but I hoped for something more elegant.

    About the choreo: For me it seemd like they were dancing to the wrong song. Some of the movements didn't fit the song at all. Hope they going to change it a bit.

    All in all I think it could be worse.

    LOL I went back 5 pages and NOBODY blamed Kojiharu for the dance.

    Someone simply went "you blaming Kojiharu!!" out of the blue, that's it.

    Stop Trumping threads with alternative facts, please.

    I think people are putting too much expectations into "X is choreographing! X is the center! It's the Sakura/Summer/Winter/ect. single!" aspect even before listening to the song and thus being super disappointed once it's released. I'm sure I'm in the minority where I'd wait to listen before I make a judgement.

    After taking a listen to Shoot Sign, I think the song is fine.

    Finally watched the song. (lol) I don't see what people are complaining about.

    Also, no one complained about High Tension's choreo because they were too busy complaining about the God-awful costumes. (Not that there was anything in the choreo to complain about, but this is Stage48 after all.)

    I agree with avoiding expectations but if you watched the full show it's hard to.
    First there's the Takahiro brag,
    then they also talked about how Kojiharu always looks back when she's centring because she can't remember the moves
    but this time she didn't!
    So I was expecting to be impressed.

    I was also unfortunately not them to reuse the classic disco theme already.
    It's just like the last single but dull.
    It's Low Tension!
    AKB single tracks' main selling point for me has always been that they often try new things.
    Or at least rotate between various concepts/genres.
    Going disco twice in a row is cheap and disappointing.

    There should be no problem remembering the coreo if you're familiar with Party ga Hajimaru yo coreo and a fan of JSB's Summer Madness (I'm not blaming Kojiharu here btw). Then again, coreo could be changed (cmiiw) like TwI where the final one (the social dance one) looked way better than the first one. Tbh, last year, the only first performance that didn't put me to rage was Love Trip, but I ended up liking all of last year's single, then there are coupling songs that tend to sound better than the actual single.

    Going by the comments I expected to totally hate the song :lol: but now that I actually listen to it it's just rather bland. I don't hate it but it's not a huge hit either lol The choreo is too plain but thankfully it makes the first performance less of a trainwreck. And I like how every member has their own costume and character. I just wish Koji had received something more bombastic.... Not super dancey because we know this is Kojiharu centering and she DGAF but at least something with a little spice. This doesn't feel like it HAD to be an A-side...

    That's totally gonna become a JuriSaku WCenter by March [hehe]
