[2/4] ANGERME (アンジュルム) 1st single : Taiki Bansei / Otome no Gyakushu

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT THINKS THAT!

[Daisuki Daiiyo]

But Meimi needs to change up her hair, stat. The short curled hair with her goofy grin just looks ridiculous.

I haven't liked it at all tbh lol it doesn't really suit her face. Also I can't wait for more cohesively styled outfits.

I was a little disappointed by the video. They could have used radically different outfits in the closeup scenes, you know, like having them wearing glasses and stewardess outfits?

[Moh]

I don't really like the freeze frames with their names. Looks like an effect in Photoshop.
I still think some of the transitions are way too fast.

And honestly, this is a fun sounding song as it is, but it sounds much more energetic when it's live.

[Amped]

very cool MV so far. The song and MV together introduces Angerme as a new group in a fun way.

[Obsidian]

I'm very easy to please and H!P does the perfect MV production for me, I just want the music, to see the Idols and a bit of the dance. I often just prefer the Dance shots and when I first started getting into H!P that's pretty much what I'd watch.

I actually really like Maho's close ups without her worrying about getting the dance right you get a lot more personality from her.

[Denki]

My favorite part of the PV translations was that they translated "mou" as "ugh." Well then, that killed the mood of that motivating song.

Other than the actual lyrics, both the song and MV feels cool and energetic, giving this motivating vibe. I sorta agree that Maho is best when she isn't dancing.

MV is great. The girls look gorgeous. There are some parts where editing doesn't stand out for good, but the fun and energetic vibe that is brought up by the song is really present during the entire video.
And besides, camerawork is continuing to improve a lot Now they just need to learn how to play well with close-up shots.

[Jessi]

Maybe I've been foruming too much

Someone said they hate Rikakos pants and now I don't really like her pants

Someone else then said Ayaka fuzzy vest makes it look like she's being attacked by an animal and now I can't unsee it.

And now someone said that Rina looks like she just got out of bed and then I looked and now it's really noticeable.

I'm still gonna buy the single, because these two songs are very strong and I can't get Taiki Bansei out of my head. But their image just seems a mess. Cohesiveness is still awkward. Outfits don't fit the song. (they look ready for a Berryz single sorry) the PV is super boring and could have been so much better. I still don't like the name and as much as I have gotten used to hearing Anjurumu every time I see the word Angerme be it the covers or on the PV I get annoyed. Even the translation of the PV is bothering me. Those ughs are just getting to me.

And I'm sorry for the rant but I am being harsh right now because THIS SONG IS AWESOME and 3rd gen is awesome. They have so much potential.

The best thing going for this group right now is Murotan <3
They need to make a new MiniMoni with Shimamura Uta and Murotan. OMG those two are the cutest things in H!P.

Boring PV and bad lighting
