Re: Morning Musume 44th Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game
We got a radio preview out now. It's only a minute, but it's still better then a concert rip. xD
I don't know which version of the single to get! :< I might go against my morals and buy two!

There's also a Single V cover. Looks like Limited C, except straight legs instead of crazy legs, and the party-time splotches of Limited A instead of the stripes of Limited C.
This camera angle makes me feel dominated.

Because you don't know which cover is best? You could choose based on which DVD you like the sound of:
Limited A: White Dance Shot Ver.
Limited B: Close-up Ver.
Limited C: Black Dance Shot Ver.

OMG, listen to those giant drums and the synth bass in the first verse.
It's The Manpower rearranged to be a good song.
This song is definitely going to have really goofy choreography.

From what I remember, japanese radio rips tend to be really bass-heavy.
At least that's what I nearly always think when I hear one.

Great song overall, although the chorus strikes me as a bit weak. I have to say, it didn't remind me of The Manpower at all. Despite the reuse of strings, I actually can't think of any other MM song to compare it to, which is nice considering that their last single was so formulaic. I'm hoping for an impressive PV.

I think I might go with A and C, close-up PVs wig me out for some reason. The fact that they are just sort of staring at you for 4 minutes smiling just doesn't give me warm fuzzies.

Double the Bump Fun!
PV Preview!(Catch it before it disappears!)
Well now I see what the black dance shot is, I wonder what the white dance shot version will look like?
I'll give them a B for the flower petals. Needs some CG. I always love a little CG. I miss Morning Musume CGheesie PVs. xD
They brought back some shabondama water. No splashing? I hope there's splashing! D:
Oh! And they finally stuck Aika in some dancing heals.

I really like the PV so far! I like the parts where they are sitting in the flowers singing~

Re: Morning Musume 44th Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game
The alternate outfits are fancy. Why was there NOT an elegant outfit cover?
Eri looks awesome, I love her houndstooth glove.
Odd, there was no solo shot of Reina, just a giant bow during her lines.
I don't like Risa's hooker rain boots. The other girls dealt with the water.
Does the pinky and thumb motion mean "onna to otoko"?
Aya kind of did it too in The Bigaku (1:06)
Takahashi at 41 seconds is begging to be a "whip my hair" looping gif.
The choreography is not as absurd as expected. (so far)

My first time hearing the song.
Too bad the dance shot setting is just like many of their other dance shots (Iroppoi Jirettai is one I can think of).
The song sounds good so far, could use a bit more UMPH~~~ though!

Awesome, when I have time, I'm adding a reversed animation onto it, so it will be properly "back and forth".

I wish the dance was more... not boring and I don't get the dance shot dresses, but I fucking love the princess dress shots and hope we get a PV with just those. Song owns too.
Re: Morning Musume 44th Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game
I love it. The princess gowns are gorgeous. I cannot wait for the Close Up Ver. I might have to wait for the entire dance shot but they seemed to step their game up with the choreography. I feel like it's a proper send off for Eri/JunJun/LinLin.
P.S. I know I'm not the only one but, doesn't the song sound a little like Tetris?
EDIT: LQ ver. of full PV.

Well, now we know what the white dance shot will be.
Eh, PV is kind of boring (though I do like the princess dress shots), but the song is still awesome.

Re: Morning Musume 44th Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game
Oh my god, Ai's princess dress shot is a-fucking-mazing. I'm a sucker for barrettes with feathers and flowers and dangly stuff though, but just...wow.
My only fuss is the PV isn't as great as the song. If they had eliminated a dance shot and just had them wandering around kinda like in Mano's "Haru no Arashi," that would be awesome.

Re: Morning Musume 44th Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game
The PV has an interesting pace. It starts off nice and flowery, but the cuts get more and more frenetic as it gets to the end.
I'm not sure if the song sounds like Tetris, but perhaps those are 3D Tetris pieces. This video has all sorts of shots. There seem to be two White Dance backgrounds, one with tetris and one with some sort of ceiling? I guess close-up is them at the leafy pool, but does that include the wide shots of them standing motionless with falling petals? Perhaps the dramatic claustrophobic hallway shots with dramatic leaning will be part of the "different" version that the Single V will have.

I wanted more shots of pretty dresses, even if they don't really match the PV.

Re: Morning Musume 44th Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game
The CDJapan entries for this don't indicate which edition has the Dance Shot video.
Anyone know?
Thanks.
(I'm guessing it's Type A, because that's what usually has it, but some other single release recently--Berryz?--had it on Type B.)

Neither Amazon Japan nor the official site make mention of what's on the DVDs that come with each version. Guess you have to buy all three to find out!

Given how high the yen is now, I don't think that's such a wise investment. I've definitely cut down on CDJapan purchases in recent months because of that.

Re: Morning Musume 44th Onna to Otoko no Lullaby Game
As a whole, I like the song much more than the PV. This PV makes no sense to me and doesn't really fit the music.
Also, haven't we seen these white boots before? I hate them - they remind me of the late 90s.
Edit: I just did a quick scan and realized that the are ALWAYS wearing boots, either for promos or concerts or official outfits. Or at least knee high socks. And always with something very short, like shorts or a mini skirt! And it isn't just MM but so many idols. Why is this such a "thing" in Japan still? I thought that was really big like circa 1997.
