The PV for Morning Musume's 42nd single, Onna ga medatte naze ikenai, was released a few days ago. And like any other Momusu PV I was really jazzed to see how it would turn out. But of course I was uber disappointed by the overall mediocrity of it.
Obviously the first thing to jump out about the PV is their outfits, which I've never been a fan of. When the concert pictures with them wearing those dresses I hoped they wouldn't be used in the actual video. But I obviously prayed in vain. They're a little too poofy and elaborate to wear for a video. Much like the outfits from Onna ni Sachi are. I always though "bolder" outfits like these should only be worn at concerts.
Maybe I don't like the video because the whole theme is very superficial. Let's do our hair and makeup cause we're so pretty. Also check out my fierce runway walk. I'm sure Reina and Sayumi loved filming this. It fits them perfectly. But aside from all the self centered scenes it's basically the wash rinse repeat PV that H!P always makes. Because who needs to be creative when you can make the same video five thousand times? The dance scene are one step above Resonant Blue's dance scene. Instead of a completely black room with no light, they are on a small black stage with concert lights. If they were gonna go for a concert looking dance theme why didn't they go the Chokkan 2 Nogashita Sakana wa Ookiizo route and use actual concert footage? It would have made the video a little less somber and a little more energetic and fun.
But the girls do look exceptionally pretty in the PV. But of course they do, because anymore that's basically their job. The girls who aren't Reina, Ai, Eri, or Risa never get to sing anyway. (Sayumi gets to sing once in a blue moon. But I don't count her Ahs solo lines in this song as singing parts) Their job is to sit there and look pretty.

I though this was Onna ga medatte naze ikenai
not Kuchibiru kara Romantica?
What's up with everyone's I'm better than you looks?
I don't get it.
I thought this was Onna ga medatte naze ikenai
not Dakishimete Dakishimete?
So this is where they film Japan's next top model.
Reina's looks so smug here.
At least LinLin looks pretty.

There're times I want to punch Reina in the face too.
ERI TOO WITH HER HORRENDOUS SOLO LINES.
Lolz. Good to know I'm not the only who who dislikes Reina. XD
And what's horrendous about Eri's solo lines? I love Eri's voice.
