Single AKB48 56th [Sustainable] (2019/09/18)

I think it's a mix of the iiwake maybe and everyday katyusha ones!

These are all the references to old music (videos) I've found (including the obvious ones we've already talked about). Some parts can go for more than one thing and maybe I'm far fetching some stuff

 

Is a long shot, but the ice cream could be a reference to ponytail to shushu, they also repeat the ice cream thing on everyday katyusha, but that time they used the same ice cream truck.

 

Suki ga Suki wa Suteki na

+ the drum intro can be a reference to 10 nen Sakura

 

Yes, yes! Classic, fresh, and youthful. AKB A-sides had been missing some teenage energy as of late. It's so cute TTwTT

 

I'm pretty sure that the scene with the time capsule under the tree is a reference to the drama version MV of 'Kimi no Hohoemi wo Yume ni Miru' (the 34th single with the very long name) but I can't find that video online, only the regular one. Therefore I've dug out my copy of the CD and I've made some screenshots:

 

And Jurina also centered that single.

 

any info for HS?

 

Spoiler: Should be on Moeka's thread

saw her, on stage from afar, on the aisle within moderate distance, and up close while shaking hands....
Have to say, those criticism are legit. She is thicc for an idol. Myao better say something to her.
We are not talking about normal women here after all so, bringing it to normal range is like moving the goal post.

What kind of info you are looking for? The resale rounds are finished.

 

Other possible references in MV (or I might just be delusional) :

• Mirurun's finger snaps during the car scene might be reference to High Tension
• The sentence in the time capsule box said 10年後の私たちへ (to ourselves 10 year later) which might be a reference to 10nen Sakura
• The colorful flowers might be reference to Sayonara Crawl
• Tomu waving to Moeka might be reference to Everyday Kachuusa's ending

I still don't believe there's no reference to Hebirote or Furage though.

 

Are there really intentional references aside from the singles outright shown? Then again, intentional or just pushing it, its an interesting thing to look for.

Quite strange though if they put "easter egg references" for other singles but none for Hebirote and Furage.

I was thinking my Hajimete no Drive interpretation might be a bit of a stretch, but it reminded me of that so I included it. The close-ups of the girls also remind me a lot of the ones from #SukiNanda but they've always done that (I think it's just the colours that are similar so it reminds me most of that).

 

Short version of team 8 song

 

Did anyone post this performance here?

 

is it me or is the quality really shit

 

Hattsu again ?

More serious, all the things that happened since last december has some effects on this single unfortunatly.

 

Quality is really poor. Sustainable MV too! It possible to count every pixel if you have enough time =)

 

Funny fact about "Sustainable" single. We know already that Yuiyui has participated in 2 MVs and in both she is riding on bicycle... So new title for her after this single "自転車姫" (Jitensha Hime)
