Single AKB48 18th [Beginner] 10/10/27

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^I'm definitely getting the Hangry & Angry.

I just remembered that tomorrow is AKBingo! Let's all cross our fingers that there's a PV preview!

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^ Uwa! You're right! I hope there is a PV preview *crosses fingers* the more and more I listen to the song I get so pumped for the PV!

The song is currently on repeat on my iTunes.

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^ It'd be even better if they uploaded it on the official YT channel like SKE did!

I just read that the director is Nakashima Tetsuya, who directed the movie "Kokuhaku" - released this year and was #1 at Japanese cinemas for 4 weeks. One of the characters in the movie is an AKB fan and I believe the RIVER PV is played in the background in one scene. It's also being considered as a possible entry to the Oscar for Best Foreign Film IIRC.

I've been lurking this thread but after reading some tidbits in the Janken Tournament thread, I came straight over.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS DARK SONG FTW! ! ! SOUNDS AMAZING!
I'm okay with all this action and gore (but WTH Aki-p! Why leave Sayaka out!? Even when she starred in that one gore drama or whatever. =/ ). I CAN'T WAIT FOR PV PREVIEWS! The LQ recording is on replay.

Acchan's screams... ...WOW. I like Ange's Taka-papa theory...I totally could imagine that scene too if it wasn't for what the scene really was about...haha.

I OFFICIALLY SIGN MY SOUL OVER TO AKB48.
Well, it's been with them since forever, but this seals the deal. lol.

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

I absolutely love this song already. I can't put it on repeat since it's so low quality, but if it were any better I definitely would spam this song forever *______* It sounds great, I can't wait to see the PV!!

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

What's being said in the beginning? XD

"Ey yo! Audition! Say!" ?????? Sounds like...Yuko? Takamina?

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

"Take your position! Start!" ? That's what I thought it was. With a weird pause between "your" and "position", but >_____>; And my first thought was Takamina, though I couldn't say for sure.

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^
rofl well, my interpretation was WAY off.
That makes more sense though. lol.

Yeah, I imagined Takamina too but...guess we'll wait unless more info. or previews leak. XD

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

*______________* OMG!

I... this...
...amazing ;________;

I love gore and for some reason don't mind seeing my idols involved with it. [rofl] I mean, I'm like OMG SHE'S SO COOL SHE'S IN SOMETHING LIKE THIS AAAAAAAAH

I loved Acchan's screaming. It's still giving me chills. I can't wait to see the PV to watch her scream [evil] Also I love how obviously it was Acchan. She has such a distinctive voice. Best voice ever.

I wonder if I'll cringe seeing anything happen to Mayuyu...
Though I'll probably be like MAYUYU, MY LOVE FOR YOU HAS SOMEHOW GOTTEN STRONGER~~~~~~

creep.

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

Haha! You WOULD do that.

And yeah, after looking over another fan's review of the PV...

Spoiler

Acchan screams when her hand is stabbed, not when it's hacked off.

Still pretty crazy stuff.

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^ Aww I now want to see Acchan's hand hacked off now instead

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^

Spoiler

Oh, I think it still gets hacked. It's just the initial screaming is from the stab.

I'll need to see the PV itself. Then I'll know. I'll still probably cringe and feel a bit nauseous by the super violence. Bit still I'll know.

By the way, are the spoiler tags needed anymore at this point? [wonder]

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

Every time I listen Acchan scream, I like her more....

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^ I LOVE YOU.

lyrics sound like another Ouen Song.

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

^
^ THANK YOUUUUUUUUU!!!

So yeah.... What did I just hear and what did I just read??????? o_o

OMG. THIS IS BY-FAR THE CRAZIEST, MOST EPIC, THING AKB HAS EVER PRODUCED. (and I'm saying this without watching the PV.... o_o) -The only thing to make it 1000000000000000000000000000000000 times more epic is if Sayaka was in it-
Acchan's scream literally chilled me to the bones. Awesome o_o....

THIS IS WHY I LOVE THIS GROUP. And there's never been a day I've regretted joining this fandom....

No words...no words can accurately descripe the SHEER AWESOME that is the song "Beginner" Hello new favourite single

When people said "dark song" I wasn't expecting anything on this level.

PV. NOW. PLEASE. OMG PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

Dude! This sounds so gangsta!

And the screaming doesn't sound so bad this time around.

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

Just release the damn single, I'll buy 50 copies! [rofl]

 

Re: [SINGLE] AKB48 18th single - [Beginner] - 2010/10/27

I'm going to hold off on commenting on how great the single is until I see the PV and stuff but
now that I can actually HEAR THE SONG

IT'S SO FUCKING GREAT I DON'T EVEN OH MY GOD WHAT
HOW
WHAT
I
CAN'T
PROCESS. @_@
