I'm not entirely sure what to say about this single. Obviously we haven't heard it yet, so I feel stupid saying that I'm not feeling it... and honestly, it's not even that I specifically dislike these outfits... but they really are quite similar to Dreamusu's costumes, which is just... weird.
That and Taka's hair is about 10 kinds of awful.

[Chatin]

I hope the costumes were meant to be themed and we get some Celtic vibes, or something, in the song. I can't deal with a boring track.

[boinsie]

Seriously. This song had better have some punch. >_>

[Sohee]

Like someone said over at JPC, they remind me more of Nanchatte, and even though I can see the similarity to DMM's outfits, at least these look good. :3
I'm excited; but I'm always excited for new stuff. Though, as this won't be a "Introducing 9th gen"-single, it'll be interesting to see how they do it.

That, and Taka is hotter than ever.

[Zunu]

That and Taka's hair is about 10 kinds of awful.

I think she looks pretty hawt with her greenish-blonde hair. For some reason in spite of it, she reminds me more than ever of that former American Idol girl...


This one...

Basing my opinion solely on the title alone I'm thinking the last thing it's going to have is "punch". But maybe Tsunku'll surprise.

Unless the outfits are absolutely ridiculous or smokin' I don't normally care all that much. That being said, I like the OG outfits but I'm not really feeling the 9th gen vests.

And I thought it was going to weird me out but I'm quite happy with Takahashi's hair. I don't even have to convince myself of it like I did when Boss went blonde. I think it looks particularly good in some of the shots posted on Risa and Sayu's blogs. Of course she could be bald or rocking a mullet and I'd still think she looks hawt. Poor Kanon though.

[boinsie]

I agre that Taka's hair has looked nice in some of the blog shots... but for most of the distance shots and casuals, it just looks like bowl of goldenrod got stuck on her head.

And wtf, why couldn't they have styled Zukki to look attractive for this PV? LOOK AT HER.


SEE HOW CUTE SHE IS WITH BANGS? Do not turn her into the next Aika, UF*...


...


and I guess concert preview of the song?

I think I might like it? The quick talking bits are weird, though...

[MMko]

^ She does looks cute there with that hairstyle. I don't know about Kanon. I haven't been paying enough attention to really back it up with anything but I feel like she may end up becoming the next Makoto.

The track doesn't sound like what I was expecting from the title. It's pretty punchy. I like it well enough from the concert rip.

[Chatin]

I like it enough for a Gundam opening. The outfits don't really seem to match, though..

Most of the girls look terrible in that getup. I think Sayu and Reina are the only ones I've found passable at this point. I hope it translates better in the PV.
