So, I've finally watch the Gingham Check DVDs so here are my thoughts:
Yes, finally, I bought Type A on release day, and then hunted around for Type B to get a Mayu store bonus photo, but only managed a MayuJurina one... and have been away quite a while...Gingham Check - Amazing PV. I've always loved the song, and the promo images of the PV were great. But the whole thing is just stunning. I love how it is basically a load of trailers for B-movies, as I love that whole grindhouse style. The whole thing is just so much fun. And there is
loads of Yuko and Mayu - which is exactly what I voted for!
Yume no Kawa - This is a really lovely song, and a lovely PV to go along with it. A lovely song for Acchan and she will be sorely missed. Acchan <3
Do Re Mi Fa Onchi - Wasamin makes a great centre. Can't recall much else, but the song is a lot better than I thought it would be with that title. Strange to see Wasamin in her Mujin Eki outfit and liked the 2nd half of the PV a lot more. Was nice seeing Myao too. The whole thing with Wasamin centre reminded me so much of all the excitement of the elections, which leads nicely onto...
27th Single Election Documentary - When DVD bonuses are too long and irrelevant I get put off and don't watch them, but this fit right in and was pretty enjoyable. Enjoyed seeing clips of other members who didn't make the cut for any of the PVs and the whole thing was nicely done and included some footage I'd like to see more of, like the Team K tour.
Nante Bohemian - The song and PV are just so much fun. The PV especially because it has three of the most beautiful AKB members in it (Akicha, Asuka, Shimazaki) and flanked by SayaMilky, who are always beautiful.
Show Fight! - I never liked the song, but it sounds better on this DVD than the low quality rip I'd previously heard. I don't like the whole fighting thing, and if I hadn't been watching Majisuka 3, I would completely hate this PV. A lot of the characters from MG3 are in it too... And I still don't get the Muto Tumu appeal. I've seen her in lots of Team 4/KKS LODs and she completely passed me by and I was so surprised at her prelim and final election rank. She still doesn't click here. Ranran does though.
And that's it. Didn't watch the Type B bonuses because its late and they are really long. But I think I'll be watching these PVs quite a lot, they are really good fun
