[4/17] MM。53rd "Brainstorming/Kimi Sae Ireba Nani mo Iranai"

[DARC1993]

I'm in love with this line up.

9nin>>>>>>>>current line up. But still they are all pretty great and it's my second favorite.

I mostly like Haruna because she started out as the designated klutz.

She still seems a little klutzy to me. Well, not exactly klutzy but unstudied. In a good way. Like an idol "outsider artist."

Overall, I think the video is really well done. The camerawork is expansive and engaging without being irritating. All the girls are looking good and moving well. I never bother to try to rank them lately because I don't actually dislike any of them these days. Even Riho doesn't annoy me any more. I don't know if idols are improving or my taste is deteriorating.

About that segment of the dance where Riho and Ayumi "battle," at the end they mirror each other's movements. That reminds me so much of something, but I can't recall what. But every time I see it, it feels like something is tapping on the edge of my recognition.

^ I put that on Tumblr holy crap (I credited you!)

She's still the designated klutz

She's just so awesome.

The video was okay, it felt pretty underwhelming as someone fell in love with the dance shot and used 90% percent of it.

omg that is awesome.
This single is quite decent. It doesn't really stand out for me, but its still flawless.
Im kinda irked by the excessive amounts of Riho Im getting, especially in the HelloStation performance. I wanted more Haruka cos she looked kick-ass.
And I wished they styled Haruna's hair better, she suits hair styles with more volume like her hairstyle for Hinamatsuri which was hot.
But still flawless PV, and Kimi Sae's MV is going to be of a similar style based on the preview we got before. Great single, great music, great line-up.

And Zukki looks really good here! Glad she got a lot of screen time! And so did Masaki. Also the white shot was really random Kinda wish there was some slow-mo in this PV but its cool :3

I dont really feel like this is Reina's graduation PV, but Help Me definitely had that send-off quality to it, or more of a "reborn" factor to it. Possibly suggesting that Reina's restarting her career as a singer with her new band maybe? But its a great graduation single.

Yyyep. I mean, beside the glorious HD it's not much of an improvement from the loose shot version

What. Even aside from the good looking closeups, did you not notice the insane amount of added angles and moving cameras that are nowhere to be found in the loose shot version? Those angles and closeups on the dance make the whole MV imo.

[randompasserby]

I really don't
Thought it was mostly the same angles but with more zoom in xD

[zam_ho]

^
^Yes I like all the floating camera angles they used.
They have atleast 1 camera on the floor level and one mounted on a boom for the overhead shots. The overhead shots were amazing.

LOL thanks

You can share it but I'm not sure how. I think you can share it on twitter using photobucket.

^...please compare the two and you'll see the difference. >>
