Putting this back at the front because, why not? UZA is the single to beat for me. Years later and it is not only still on my ‘To Go’ playlist but it is also still my No.1 AKB48 song! As it stands my current AKB single song rankings are…
UZA
BEGINNER
Bokutachi wa Tatakawanai
Kaze wa Fuiteiru
Flying Get
Heart Ereki
Green Flash
Aitakatta
RIVER
Ponytail to Shushu
And with that, i just had to move this video up to the first page to remind people of how awesome UZA was, and still is! To think that it was hated day one. Not much hate went on still by the single’s release showing how this song just grows on you.
In the video, I put together clips from different performances of UZA and the two music videos. Best song deserves best dance video I say and I think I did good. Anyway, long live UZA! You are still my favourite song.
I just can’t stop listening to this song, especially when I am watching this video.
Mizu no Naka no Dendouritsu has just earned AKB 1600yen! I know it doesn’t sound a lot compared to what the actual sales will be but as every business student knows, even a cent is precious!
Yes, I am admitting it! I was not going to buy this single before watching this short PV for the Next Girls’ song! Now don’t get me wrong. It’s not that I don’t like Halloween Night as a song and PV. It’s not that I don’t like the coupling ‘Ippome Ondo’ song and PV either. I love them both. I love them as just another AKB single.
I don’t like them as Senbatsu songs and PV!
Seriously please tell me what is so attractive about Halloween Night as a Senbatsu PV/song?! Nothing! If they replaced the senbatsu with any other girls it would be absolutely the same thing! Whatever happened to the PVs of old where a PV made members jealous of the Senbatsu members?! In the old PVs you had this feeling that anyone lower would look at those PVs and wish they were in those top spots! You would watch a PV as a fan and feel proud that your girl was so high in Senbatsu because the PVs were part of the reward to them. Those PVs were also more effortful and did a great job of showing the power of Senbatsu members, especially the top!
What did you get from watching Halloween Night in regards to Senbatsu, please tell me, I am all ears! As for myself, well, this rant should tell you all you need to know! For me this A-side was not worth of a Senbatsu song! Actually I am pretty much calmed down now but the first time I saw this I was so disappointed and angry you have no idea!
Sure the costumes were nice even if Halloween themes in the middle of summer is a crap idea but I loved them never the less. Sure this would have done better as the Janken single or pre-Janken! Other than being at the front, there was no real reward for Sashiko for winning Senbatsu with nearly 10% of the total votes! Yes, that is the reward in the first place but tell me if that was all you got from the Acchan/Yuko singles/PVs!!
I was so under-whelmed that even Yukirin going up in ranks was not going to get me to buy this after watching that Halloween Night PV! Sure there was some MayukiSashi moments but they were doing nothing but standing next to each other. Such disappointment! But then yesterday AKS goes and releases the previews for the PVs for the ‘Under Girls’, Next Girls’, ‘Future Girls’ and ‘Upcoming Girls’. It is among these whose PV sold me and urged me to buy this single! That is of course Next Girls’ Mizu no Naka no Dendouritsu! That PV just re-ignited by AKB flame!
So, it’s been a while, a very long while in regards to Yukirin’s last N stage, but I just figured that I need to mention these two events now, especially after dear Maddie just went and translated the letters (and some of those messages from the N members).
If you are a fan I am pretty sure that you remember the spammed messages to Yukirin from the NMB members after her last stage, right? I have never seen so many messages to a member ever! Some even did triple posts like Akarin who posted two long ass posts on twitter and another on G+. Poor Maddie tried her best to translate what she could but it was just too much! I will try collecting all of the messages and include them after the jump so if you are interested, do check them out (though they will be in Japanese).
Then there are those letters from Riorin and Kitarie to Yukirin on her birthday. They were read during the stage and apparently there was a third one from Sashiharator but apparently she forgot that the letter was not for Yukirin’s ears only so it did not pass the rating. It had to be sent to Yukirin personally. Not gonna lie, I am pretty curious what that letter said. But seriously, a letter from Riorin! You just knew I was going to write about this!
Yeah, I can’t believe I just said that! Two days later and I am still thinking about it! To think that at the end of it all Boys’ Love would take the cake!
Now of course as far as official winners go, it shouldn’t be a surprise that Saeman won, right? Everyone in that studio (and someone in front of the screen) was ready to have his babies the instant their eyes fell on his awesome excellency! Too bad for them (and a certain someone) Renacchi won that bowl!
But we already found out the first half that this time it wasn’t just about cosplay! It’s all about the love story and how many heart strings would fall prey to it. And dear Readers, this second round was all out deadly! Directors Kitarie, Suzuran and Maokyun brought their A-game so it’s no surprise everyone won in their own way! Suzuran won the casting (Sometime the actor makes the movie because Mein Gott, that Saeman). Kitarie won best cinematography (damn curtain scene). Meanwhile Maokyun pulled a complete KyoAni on everyone when she totally baited them and left them standing wondering WTF they had just seen and where their fish is!
Tuesday night has been the best night all year, no arguments! Not only did KyoAni deliver the best ending ever to the best anime of the year (come on, this is going down in history) but we got to have this lovely Danso Love Story battle! No need to mention the hardships faced in trying to fall asleep Tuesday night!
