The full PV for C-ute's upcoming single, Sekai ichi Happy na Onna no ko, has been released on their official youtube channel. Ad it honestly seems really rushed. The single isn't releases until September 7th but we're getting the PV now. Which is about a week or 2 early. And we're getting the PV with no warning. Not one PV preview was released for this single.
When I first watched the PV I decided I hated it withing the first 10 seconds. But for some reason by the time I finished watching I was in love with the PV. Which is something that never happens with me. Usually it's pretty cut and dry, I either love the PV or I hate it. And everything about this PV points to me hating it. The PV itself is extremely cheap. A majority of the PV is filmed in the exact same place. They have the dance shot up front, and then 5 feet behind them is the space for their close-ups. Which is something they hardly ever do in idol PVs. No matter how low of a budget they have, the dance shot and close-ups are 2 different settings. Even the cheapest of the cheap PVs don't really do this. I can honestly only think of a few PVs that actually do this. Which are Buono's Renai Rider, and actually most of Kusumi Koharu's solo singles. Another reason I should hate it is because of the dance. The dance is extremely simple. But idol dances are hardly ever good. Literally 9/10 are terrible.
I should also hate it because literally nothing happens in the PV. Just cute idol poses and close-ups, and that's it. Yet for some reason, despite all of this, I absolutely adore the PV. Because believe it or not I am pretty easy to please. I might be super critical of idol PVs, but that's not to say I don't enjoy most of them. The PV itself could be god awful, but if my idols look cute and are doing cute things, chances are I'm going to like the PV. It will never be my favorite idol PV of all time, but I will still enjoy it thoroughly. And that's exactly what this PV is like. The PV is simple, but it's not exactly boring. There are still a few cute elements to the PV. And above all, C-ute look absolutely adorable in this PV. They are wearing puffy idol dresses and oversized hair accessories. It's that's not adorable, I don't know what is!
I feel like I've seen this before. But I can't put my finger on it. And not Perfume's One Room Disco, somewhere else.
I challenge anyone to say that every members doesn't look to cute for words in this PV. I'm not the biggest Saki fan, but I want hug her in this PV.
Why does every idol group think this is a move worth repeating?
Airi looks perfect in her close-ups. *O*
Chisa looks pretty fresh and cute.
How is it possible for Maimi to be gorgeous and adorable at the same time?
Airi is so cute.
Gorgeous. MaiMai has been standing out to me a lot more lately.
Adorable smile.
Mai standing out, even in the background.
Creepy smile. Lol.
Airi! *O*
What's with the random orange?
These are probably my favorite scenes. You get to see every member, and they look cute and doll like.
Ring around the Airi.
Lol.
The funky chicken. Seriously?
Adorable.
Look how cute Nacky is.
It's pretty obvious what the dominos are for.
Adorable!
I have to admit, Saki really knows how to make her close-ups interesting.
The laying down scenes remind me of Paramore's The Only Exception music video. American music reference no one cares about. XD
Absolutely adorable!
Lolz at Maimi.
Totally saw this coming.
It reminds me too much of Berryz Koubou's Tomodachi wa Tomodachi Nanda PV.
This shot is weird. They almost look fake.
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!
