I know many groups that are in the alternative J-POP genre aren't really into it but DEEP GIRL just seem over the top in the try-hard department, I think it was like that in the first video as well.

Bullying, violence, suicide? I love it

Seriously, my most loved movies turn around those themes. Too bad I don't like the group and that speaking instead of singing.

Otherwise the MV is artistically nicely done. It shows how diverse the idol scene still develops, with putting such images to the music. I approve.

Even some compensated dating, excellent.

Yeah, I had to stop watching the MV when it got to point. Not so much because of it but because of feeling like this is too disturbing even by my standards by that point in the PV. Also like wattstax said, I'm not a fan of them talking for more than half of what they are allegedly calling a song.

I think I like this song, but the video randomly becomes Stars Wars half way through . . .

Apparently this song is also part of the same single the previous song is on despite being two different groups (?) I know this group has been posted here before but I know nothing about them, so I don't know the story of the relationship between the two. The song is fun and upbeat that though, so I will give it that.

I don't know for sure but they are definitely part of the same management, they usually perform together.

The all girl group (Black DPG) are the evil ones that kidnap some member of a group they perform with and then a wrestling match happens and the hostage is freed, last time I saw them the hostage was the girl with the red backpack from Avuandando (it was her 17'th birthday as well).

As everyone has mentioned, not your average idol PV.
But props for the presentation, and delivering the concept
in a consistent, but not too graphic style.

Hopefully the creativity exhibited in this PV can be
utilized in less dreary PV's as well....but nothing wrong
with strong social statements as part of the mix.

Major label debut, kinda disappointed with the thin sound I liked their older stuff better.

#4 in the daily rating at Oricon.

Also I'm considering getting this live BD, she seems interesting

I already posted the first video back in November . . .

Here's Omori Seiko's latest video which has members of Upga, Avandonded, Necronomidol, and Rei Kuromiya saying "aishiteruyo" into the camera.

Even when there are people who know how to turn the phone to make it film in landscape the video still stays in portrait mode though!

I don't think she's an idol but I came across her video a while ago and I like it. Jounetsu Mariko (情熱マリ子).

wattstax · « **Reply #1272 on:** January 24, 2016, 06:31:38 PM »

Jounetsu Mariko - doubt shw is an idol, as she seems to be skilled in playing an instrument. Whatever the case, I like the song.
Her outfit reminds me of the character "Nezumi" of the Majisuka Gakuen series.

Me on the other hand found a nice performance video of GALETTe, including Akari.

Quality is good for an amateur video. Good sound, good visuals (relatively spoken).

Saw some of these girls in Paris last year and they were super adorable.
I'm happy that they're finally releasing their 1st single but the pv is a bit... lol.

(They're an Afilia Saga sister group by the way)

^ hmm... I definitely prefer the style of DEEP GIRL over them... and I still don't understand the name change from Stand-Up to Iketeru... or why Mashilo was with Stand-up in France but now is with Deep Girl?

At some point she was a member of both groups, I think up until it was decided that Deep Girl would continue (after the first single).
