WHAT THE FUCK. WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT. WHAT. WHAAAT. WUT.  :rofl:

Chisato's Tanpopo hat. Maimi's popped collar. Mai being ebil-bitch Dorothy from emo-Oz. NakaSaki's "sultry Iida" face. Sayummy--I mean Airi. These covers are awesome in the same way some Youtube poops are awesome.  :rofl:

Chisato's got another fail!tie, and Maimi's entirely too girly for their trying to make her the next Mr. Moonlight. Even Jo Kwon couldn't be that fabulous in that getup.  :lol: NakaSaki's emulating a different H!P girl in every cover. (including SAiriyummy on the first one XD) Mai is wearing a tux shirt under that dress? D: WTF?

And Airi, oh Airi. I knew you had it in you, but it's still hilarious. She looks EXACTLY like that one Sayumi picture from the ONSA set.
Come on Maimi, are you really going to let her get past you in the sexy department? I think that haircut destroyed her ability to display multiple emotions.  :lol:

...The winnar of this set is either Airi or NakaSaki.  :twothumbs Fuck, I feel so old.

I dunno, I kind of like Maimi's outfit.  It's not as flashy as Airi's, but it's got a kind of classy look with the vest and coat.



Is it just me, or is the group becoming more and more like early 1999 Morning Musume, except Airi is Nacchi?
It was pretty unbalanced before, but if going by the CM is any indication, it's just ridiculous now.
May as well call it "Suzuki Airi feat. C-ute".

Dance moves look a bit repetitive, but since most of the CM is closeup shots I'll have to withhold judgement until I get more context.

yeah, this one is all Airi... pretty much like their first major single but with way less Maimi or any other girl

I'm looking forward to this PV.

Maybe I'm biased because Airi has been my favourite Japanese idol since Tsunku discovered her, but I think she deserves the spotlight. She is where she's supposed to be, the frontrunner of the group, the heart of it, the idol.

But this is getting a bit ridiculous. There are four other girls who all have amazing (well, mostly) voices. I'm really getting bummed out that they aren't given a chance to shine, too. Maimi shouldn't be pushed back so far, I love Saki's voice, and Chisato has the best in my opinion 8|

I love my Airi, but I love the other girls two. Arrrrgggg. I want a group, not Airi with backup singers/dancers. XD Sigh.

PV (courtesy of pazard @ JPM): or http://www.dohhhup.com/movie/ZXYKK60ffBqaZdyQDZMxP4X0eNNx8K99/view.php

I... like it? Everyone seems to hate it though (I have no taste though, so my opinion is irrelevant). I like Airi, and as long as this solo single is a one-off, I'm not too bothered by the lack of other members.

I totally agree with Nevi... edit : and Slack (sorry, I didn't read your post)

I like Airi a lot too but this PV is so wrong...  :(

Pros:
The dance isn't as repetitive as the CM made me think.

Cons:
I thought this song was supposed to be by a girl group.
I don't remember songs dominated by one girl this much since Akai Freesia, Kousui, or Furusato.  Heck, the only one of those that beats this is Furusato, where you had Abe Natsumi + 6 backup singers.


Like I said, this song is from Suzuki Airi feat. C-ute.
Are they punishing Maimi for cutting her hair or something?

Still, nice song.

This could have so easily been my favourite song and PV, over both Tokaikko and Namida, and I was prepared to let it be even with Osuzu being the sole singer.

But she's also the sole person in the PV as well. I'm sorry, but as I said on my twitter, this needed a whole lot less Osuzu and a whole lot more everyone else. I feel like this was punishment for Maimi cutting her hair too. If I wanted a solo Osuzu PV, then I'd watch a solo Osuzu PV. When I'm watching a C-ute PV, I kinda expect to at least see other people, especially with only FIVE girls now it's not exactly hard to do...

That said, I do like the song, and I will come to like the PV once I get over the annoyance at everyone being shoved into the back and told to dance and do little else.

Also this needs saying, but Chisa looks amazing. Love that hat.

Man should've known that UFA would always do exactly the opposite of what you expect!!!


I thought losing two members would result in more evenly spread lines & pimpage, but instead they rely on Airi even more than before. Which I thought was impossible. LOL!! WTF
