AKB48's new PV comes through with flying colors

The PV for AKB48's upcoming single, Flying Get, has been released. I really wanted to say the full PV has been released. But since the PV on the DVD will be a whopping 18 minutes long, this seems more like the short version. Or at least the TV version.

I absolutely love everything about this PV. I think the old martial arts movie theme is incredible. I love that the outfits fit the theme, but are still cute at the same time. I think the fighting scenes are choreographed very well, and are pulled off perfectly. There's a great balance of the member's attacking and taking counter attacks. Overall, I think the PV is very exciting and entertaining. And it has the potential to become an amazing PV. That's right the potential, because I honestly don't think it's at a 10/10 just yet. I'd say it's more of a 7/10. And the reason for that is, while I was watching the PV the entire time everything just seemed rushed. The PV seemed to focus a lot more time on the dancing/singing scenese then they should of. And because of that all the fighting scenes seemed incredibly rushed. It seems like they tried to shorten this PV the best they could. So, they shoved as much fighting, and different girls, as they could in 5 minutes. Making some parts of the PV seem a little choppy.
If anything, this PV seems more like a tease. Now that I'm in intrigued by this PV I really want to see the full version already. I mean, they leave us hanging on Acchan's and Yuko's fight! Even though, since Acchan did win the senbatsu it's 95% likely she wins the fight.

I love how everyone but Acchan stands down here.

I think I'm supposed to be intimidated here, but I'm just not. Lol.

Mayu and Mariko have the cutest hairstyles. And look at Yuki looking all gorgeous.

I absolutely love the set.

I love Yuko's dress. I really wish everyone get to wear the Chinese dresses, and not just Yuko and Atsuko.
Lolz that they are spliting the senbatsu by boots. The media senbatsu get gold gold boots, and the regualr senbatsu get the black boots. I actually think the black boots are prettier.

Also, I hate that the dance shot looks nearly exactly like their live performances of the song. XD

The glowing eyes are just so random. But look how evil Sayaka looks.
Sasshi!

Mayu!

I never really liked this outfits before, but they are actually pretty cute.

Acchan looks pretty here.

Amina's creepy face. XD

Right in the face! Poor, I wanna say Sayaka, but it's too blurry to be 100%.

Despite being attacked, Jurina still manages to look creepy.

I love how Tomomi looks more angry than scared. XD

Um...what?

Yeah, do it Sasshi!

Is that Mayu? It's extremely hard to tell, but those do look like her ears. XD

Lolz just tossed aside. But I'm sure the less popular members are used to that.
Awesome!

This is awesome too.

Mayu is just adorable!

Lolz at Mariko's intense face.
Priceless face.

Asuka looks gorgeous here!

No, don't steal the giant painting of Acchan! Um...what?

Does anyone else think of the crazy 88's from Kill Bill everytime they see these masked guys?

No one messes with Maeda Atsuko!

Awesome.

Yeah, because everyone has magic lightning powers.

The stare down!

Of course you're always more evenly matched if you both have magic powers.

The song is called Flying Get, so of course there has to be flying. XD

Acchan looks so much like a guy here. XD

I really want to know what happens!

Hey, I just wanted to say that the girl in picture 19, (Who you thought was Mayu) is most likely Matsui Rena. I'm about 98% positive. Other then that, your review was perfect! :)

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.<3
