Oh no! I seriously love this group. I was in love with their first two indies singles and now they are going to debut and this song is crap. Ugh. Maybe it will grow on me... But for now I am disappointed.

[Daisuki Daiiyo]

I really like it. It's upbeat, fun and catchy. The dance looks really fun too. I like that they included solo lines in this, as I don't really recall them having solo lines before. I am looking forward to where this single could take them!

A long introduction to the café and the performing group, presented in English by cast member Kaori Horiuchi (i.e., the one who "taught" English to the MM members on TsunTube) and with English subtitles for everyone else…

I think I know what you mean, Byte Fighter sounds like any generic/standard j-idol song. Their previous singles were more on the wild-crazy side, like what Afilia Saga East does.

Another live performance of "Bite Fighter", as well as a kinda-sorta preview of the MV, in the latest episode of TsunTube…
