[11/30] Kobushi Factory's 1st album : Kobushi Sono Ichi

[Amped]

Beautiful and breathtaking MV for their first ballad. The Kobushi Magnolia flowers come together to bloom into spring after a cold, rough winter.

I love this PV, it's perfect.

[AyuHikaru]

Dat PV though. Not enough Reina though
I think H!P is in pretty good hands with Hoshibe taking the lead on songwriting.

Yes, not engouh Reina, that right. Not enough Rena too.

The MV is really beautilful, I enjoy drama MV.

I like the video so much that I just go say it again.

And not just because it's different, but because I really like it. I love the concept, the setting of the video, the location, the styling of the girls.

I love Tokyo and I love these girls, making the video double

Wow what a splendid PV and the song is really nice too ! I'm a sucker for ballads lol

[Jessi]

I'm not a huge fan of ballads but that PV was absolute perfection. Wow.

When you watch a PV and immediately watch it again...

This is pretty much the H!P video that I've been wishing for for the past 10 years. I love how it visually captures the feeling of Japan so exquisitely...all those trains, footbridges, street mirrors, wind turbines, getting their own solo shots as if they're featured members of the group. It's a much more expansive and inclusive vision than the typically hermetically sealed H!P PV.

And I love that the ballad gives them a chance to demonstrate their lovely "Douyou Pops"-level vocal skills. Check how Ayaka sings that rich, low "arukou" at the end of the first stanza, and then bookends her accomplishment with that sweet "kokoro ni" high note. She's seriously staking her claim to fill Airi's soon to be vacant top-singer spot.

I can't wait to get this song.
