    I've been thinking about the outfit, it reminds of something. Now I know, a cleaning woman's dust coat.

    Team A, I don't like the song but that video is really nice. Sakura totally steals the show! (#bias lol)
    Yuihan and paruru look really good too. It's one of those videos I wish the screen time was not so evenly distributed hahaha

    Oh, I was expecting the worst, but the Music Station performance wasn't that bad. The dancing reminded me of the kind of dancing they do in movies like Pride and Prejudice where the guys and girls line up opposite each other and then partner off and dance. The bench was awkward, but can't help it since Mion is so short and they wanted to get everyone in the same frame when they sang together. I actually like the uniforms too. And I saw Haruppi twice... once twirling Mion and then she was at front at the end. Song is okay for that type of song... I guess.

    Ummm, guys, can you tell me where those full videos come from? I want to watch Team 4 'Kangaeru Hito' full version. I've been curious with that video editing style. They bring video editing technique and creativity to another whole new level on that PV.

    Who directed K PV? Flowers, bright colors, lesbo vibe kinda remind me of Ninagawa works

    Someone made a comment about Sayanee getting "pushed" (in AKB) & that importance of the Guitar girl in the 44th single- maybe it was original designed for her her- Before she dropped Kennin ??

    I'm "kinda worried" about ALL of Team 4 now. I'll explain.

    Mion - slapped "out of nowhere" into solo Center w/ a song & theme that have Nothing to do w/ her!!! (She doesn't even play guitar).

    Miki - didn't rank last year. She's beyond gorgeous & genki & has blossomed into a beautiful young lady- WTF is wrong w/ Japanese males? Miki has Kami-7 potential if they'd let her do stuff.

    Okada Nana - I know "some people" (westerners) will cry fowl but here me out- That new hair-cut isn't doing her any favors. AKB48 doesn't need "another Sae" (look how AKB treated the last one) & if anyone was going to be the Danso Underdog Hero- it would Haruppi. I think Okada should seriously think about going to SKE- She'd be awesome next to Jurina.

    Saho - when was the last time AKS threw her a bone?

    KomiHaru - I can tell AKS is "trying" & just on Cuteness & Stage presence alone she could easily soar on TV Lives & be next to girls like Mion & Yuria but again - She didn't rank. AKB can only do "so much".

    Koji mako - Either fans or AKS has simmered down a tad on her- It's hard to tell who did it first. I LOVE KojiMako. I think she's very entertaining - But again. What is AKB48 giving her to do??

    I'm sure every girl in Team 4 is unique & has something to offer - But AKS doesn't want to invest or RISK any time or money on Anything "New" OR...is AKS afraid if they give "Team 4" too much 'good will' it will Suck the Life out of AKB48- i.e. Overnight guys will want NEW Gens for everything & not give 9th Gen & older Proper Respect?

    AKI-P is controlling "Choice". I don't think he'll ever give Team 4 a proper placement - Especially now that Geesh is gone. I'd like it if AKB-Team 4 could be it's own "sister group" - then maybe it was get some respect.

    In fact, Miion's push only really started when she was moved to Team K [hehe]

    Well Mion debuted in team 4 then transfer last year to team K. So she did spend half of her idol career in Team 4.

    I don't think AKS is neglecting Team 4 by any means. Team 4 has the 3 musketeers/tentomuchu who were insanely pushed when they debuted. There just isn't enough room to push everyone. Senbatsu is 16 members. They have 4 members in this single.

    But you're wrong. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean it's the wrong decision. Your personal opinion doesn't change the facts. Naachan has gotten a lot of press and notice thanks to her haircut. The other members like it. Many of her fans like it (and many don't, but they're her fans and they like her for reasons other than what her head looks like). Perhaps most of all, it helps her stand out from a crowd of girls who could be mistaken for each other at a glance.

    If you must compare her to Sae, let's not forget that Sae was actually treated quite well for most of her career. She was consistently ranked into senbatsu in elections, she was a staple of her team, and she helped carry the group in its early and mid years. Plus, thanks to her unique image, she gained fervent and incredibly loyal fans who always made sure she was rewarded for her efforts (see: Request Hour, elections). The only thing that messed her AKB career up was SNH, and that was basically all China's fault. As long as Naachan doesn't get transferred to a group that she is literally not allowed to work for, I think she'll be just fine.

    Plus, dude, it's just hair. You overreact pretty badly about it.

    Hopefully the other PVs will pop up too~

    Most of the team PVs (except for 8) have this artistic or visual appeal to them.
    Song-wise though I'd still go with Team 8~

    It's nice too that the winners of the marathon got screentime in the PV and credits. Congrats girls

    I like too how Palulu took over Team A's PV in the latter half when I expected it to be mostly Sakura-centric.

    I kinda wished they paired Tomu & Tano in the K PV during the flower scene..but they were going with ranking...

    -------
    Why am I slightly buying into the idea that TwI was somehow tailored for Sayanee too? I love conspiracies lol
    Anyway, she does play a big role in the PV and they made it out that she was supposed to sing in the protest but then it was Miion who came instead.

    Miion: She is currently in Team K and was not so pushed in 4. She was (and is) meant to be Yuko's "successor". Yuko chose her so what do you expect?

    Miki: Miki was pushed a lot in her early days. She was the upper members of Team 4. However, after the rankings don't reflect what she deserve, the management dropped her.

    Naachan: In fact, even though fans like Naachan's long hair better, it's still very well received. If AKS is treating Naachan bad, why give the media senbatsu to her? They could have easily went for Harupii.

    Saho: Was there ever even a push? She has appeared in no A-sides and half of her B-sides consist of Team 4 songs and minor coupling songs.

    Komiharu: Correct me if I'm wrong but Komiharu's popularity dropped quite a lot after her black character got out. She was often in scandals that claimed her to be very b*tchy behind the scenes. Therefore, it's not "AKB can only do so much". It also comes down to the girls (Take [Takeuchi] Miyu for example)

    Kojimako: Kojimako was and still is quite pushed. Except, now that Naachan's population gone up, management simmered the heat from 6 to a 4~5. You can't help it. It's AKB, it's a competition, it's bound to happen.

    AKS is not willing to invest in new people nor risk? What are you even talking about especially with the last two singles. Sakura was center for the 10th anniversary single, and Miion for the sousenkyo voting single. Management went very risky considering that this may back fire them.

    Let's get this straight: 9th gen and below are not going to carry the group. NOT. They won't be there for another (at max) 3 years. If management just pushed them and they graduated, wouldn't AKB start from 0 again? 9th gen and below have already received their time. Some held on to it, some unfortunately didn't, some fell along the way.

    Why would Akip make or even consider separating Team 4? Team 4 still has a lot to offer to AKB when the perfect timing comes. Just not now

    Keeping up with the recycling theme: leftovers from Miion's costume got used as sleeves for some of the other girls and then the black leftovers got passed on to sleeves for some of the red-dressed girls. :fp: Is that seriously Mayuyu in front row without sleeves, when those seem to mark the focus members of each row (Miion is center and sleeved, Sasshi and Yukirin have the sleeves for crying out lourd, and Haruppi has them, too)?

    If the drama version of this song is named Unfair, like that one screenshot seems to suggest...just :rofl: all around.

    ...THE DAY by Pornograffitti is actually the theme song for Boku no Hero Academia. Kabaneri's theme song is KABANERI OF THE IRON FORTRESS by EGOIST.

    Okay anime nerd out. :fear:
