This is my fave song of the three.

Anyway, in honor of this PV being a short version, I'll do a short version review of the girls.

Haruka is so damn intense in this. She reminds me a bit of a boybander but damn she's just so into it. Mad props.

Seems like Zukki got more camera time. And of course cause she earned it. She's solid in this.

I like Sakura's voice but she's behind the other girls when it comes to working the camera. It's funny cause if she was in Berryz or ℃-ute back in the day when they were her age or even Momusu back when 5th and 6th gen were young it wouldn't be as noticeable but the current Momusu sets a different standard.

Riho... I can't praise this girl enough. She just owns the camera. She has that ability the best one's have. Where it's like they are looking at the viewer watching the PV instead of just the camera.

Can't wait to see the rest of the PV.

Riho. Wow. That girl is so HOT. She definitely knows what she's doing with the facial expressions. <3

I know it's only the short version, but I like it so far. I especially like the close-up shots.

I love the MV!

It's simple as everyone said but that's really enough for me.

The dance is showcased well, the close ups are amazing, all the girls look so good, and the song with the girl's poses really gets you pumped up, which is the whole purpose of the song.

The only thing I was kinda disappointed at was the "nippon~~" just because it wasn't as loud and pumped as their live performance and it was techno-ed. Really, that's just a small thing that I kinda went "oh...not as good as the live" when I first saw it in the MV, but it wasn't a bother after that.

The whole teasing strategy, really good idea. It's like looking forward to the MV all over again! And with how much I love the MV so far, can't wait to see the rest when they upload it on MM.'14's YT channel.

Overall, this triple A is sooooooooo awesome. Actually, I decided this is going to be the first physical single i'm going to buy as an H!P fan =) Now I just have to figure out how cause I've never bought a CD from Japan before...wait scratch that I never bought a single on CD since iTunes came out

GO MORNING MUSUME.'14 !!!
