Single [SINGLE] Nogizaka46 4th [Seifuku no Mannequin] '12/12/19

*Sigh* ... You don't have to worry about that since Asuka already did the job for you .....

I dunno how much Ikoma being high pitched affects the song ... but she just looks so ace here.

Bonus videos preview from FujiTV's Mezanyu. Theme is members overcoming their fears/things they don't like.

Spoiler

They said "32 members", so apparently someone isn't included in those ugh...(probably Yukkiina due to her entrance exams..)

 

So roller-coasters? bungee jumping? A room filled with boys (Reika)? haunted house? Spiders? rock climbing? physical labour?

 

Nice concept. Seems like it's going to be really fun to watch!

 

I CAN'T WAIT!
Ive been looping the video forever. the special videos for past singles were nice (some boring), but these seem to be over the top!! Wonder who's going to say clowns, scared of the dark, and if ikoma will actually do a haunted house this time

 

Damn, that bonus video looks so fun...time for wallet rape [boom]

 

Posted this in the discussion thread. But thinking about it, maybe I should have posted it here.
So...

Summary in a nutshell:

Spoiler

Basically Maiyan have four slots sold out, Nanamin & Sayurin have one sold out each, & the rest is zero sold out.

This really shows how maiyan is the undisputed queen of Nogizaka!

 

As much as I'm happy for Maiyan those results make me kinda of sad tbh though I guess it's natural seeing as they're still not very popular/established. AmiAmi not at the bottom but close enough. But I'm really surprised that Ikuchan and Kazumin weren't able to sell out at least one.... wait, I don't see MisaMisa. Was she absent or I'm just blind?

EDIT:

Oh and MisaMisa posted a pic of the 4th single's uniform (at least I think, Google translate... not a good translator) :

Spoiler

I like the green and purple and the material looks pretty nice too. [clap] But wait, then what were they dancing in before if this is the "official" uniform? [wonder]

 

^Good day Sugar,
About the handshake results, the reactions have been really interesting really. Personally, if I recall correctly, I don't think there's a significant difference between this hs results & the the once for the last single, Hashire Bicycle. That is, comparing both single's second round results. So I don't see any reason to press the panic button just yet. The top trio also have always been miles ahead of the rest of the members in hs events , so no surprise there too.

However, that is my reaction when I saw the results. Many fans seems to think this is a bad results, & I am not sure why considering the fact it is not really different from Hashire Bicycle's results. There's a lot of finger pointing too, as to what "caused" this bad result (once again, a result which I don't really think is bad). Imo, I think we should wait a couple more round before we can make a fair comparison to see if there do exist any drops in handshake results.

Oh, & Misamisa is up on the list, she's number 13 (卫藤).

Also, thanks for posting that uniform! Maybe it for the new song I heard they also releasing, called 「春のメロディー」, but don't know much about it yet. I also saw this picture flouting around too, it really bad quality thou...


Edit:
Also, found this video, which has a some more footage of Nogizaka's bonus video! [party]
[youku]http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNDc1NTEwMTY0.html[/youku]

So Ikoma is gonna swim, while my guess is Minami is gonna try eating seafood. It funny how Ikuchan is so very scared of the dove thou.

 

Members posted the dress on their blog!


...well, this is my personal opinion, but, it looks quite lame for me...
Love to hear what you folks think of it.

Also,「春のメロディー」 seems to be the under's song.

 

"Haru no Melody" why another song about spring when its released during the winter??
Seems too much of the typical UG song.. and floral outfits like last time >__<

the Centers are yuttan/kanarin/misamisa it seems..im sure about Kanarin though

 

^yes Kanarin did mention center for UG song! redemption! [party]
& that dress looks...so tacky but on her it looks

 

Check this out!

Haru no Melody will be on the site for next 72 hours

 

^
It's up!! The outfits actually look kinda cute on video ... unlike how they seemed on pictures ...

The song has a Guru Guru Curtain feel ... I quite like it. Refreshing from the typical idol pop style (or the typical 48 UG song style). And Kanarin center is just ace. Love it.

 

no comment because i was expecting a song like this, but yuttan looks cute.
