OMG COVERS
ty to whoever is working right now in japan to update this.

not my favourite profile photos of the girls, but damn eripon looks great (her hairstyle reminds me of paruru).
i also really love zukki's new hair, its making her look really good recently.

Limited A - Candid Smiles is so cute. I LOVE Limited C SO MUCH OMFG.

I'm 95% sure Regular A is an anime cover. I wonder if What is Love will have animation? :w00t:
So Im guessing What is Love PV is anime + budokan concert footage? wasnt expecting that.

And because it's different enough from their latest things that people will be "disappointed" or whatever with it. Because that happens and stuff.

In general, JPlop doesn't like uplifting songs much. Remember Aruiteru? Mikan? Seishun Collection? So many people hated those. This is a bit different than those, sure, but in comparison it's "lighter" than what they've been doing recently.

TL;DR: Don't underestimate JPlop's ability to hate on things.

As I said I love it a lot and I don't want people to hate it but I know it's going to happen.


I Understand what you mean. Most people here expect the "cool" or fresh" songs but i myself prefer the cute/charming songs. Hell, Seishun Collection is one of my favorite Singles.


This song sounds cute, Not in love with it at the moment, but this is DEFINITELY a grower

The song's really laidback, although I was hoping for a cool/kakkoi/faster song like wagamama, this is a nice change of pace. It sounds boring and bland at first but it's a grower. Since it's a mid-tempo, I didn't expect much from it, in fact, I'm hoping more from the Olympic song since Kudo said it's got intense dance. So it should be a fast song.

Me too, I like the dance break, Riho and Ayumin :thumbs-up: Everybody looks pretty and great, the ones with them wearing normal clothes especially. It does bring a smile onto your face. That intro - "We Will Rock You" clap haha....the whole intro is amazing, I hope Tsunku used it for another faster song in the future. While the dance is simple (esp the chorus), the intro/end is great, you can see that timing is very important to get that wave effect.

^^ Fukuchan said the herself that while the dance looks simple, it's actually very demanding. I guess we'll notice that better when the dance shot is released

The song and the PV feel fresh. I honestly expected a typical mid-tempo song from H!P but this is pretty different. A nice surprise.

Is that a rainbow flag I see in the regular B edition cover?

I like the song. It's a little different, but it still has that vibe of what their songs have been like lately.
I absolutely love the MV. Everyone looks great, and the green screen effects are really awesome. :lol:

Lol, as the song started I felt a little bit uncomfortable because it seemed to me so Kpopish, but as it was progressing I found the real Tsunku style on it and finally felt satisfied.
It's strange because I not always like the songs at the first hearing, and I'm not sure if I liked this one too, but one thing was sure - I felt totally like I was going to love it in the future.

And yeah - 2nd time watching the MV and I'm already loving all about it.

Glad to see it's being well accepted around here too.


Plus - ZUKKI SOLO!!!!!!!!!!!! :woot:

So yes, such a nice Christmas present. Thanks. :)
