Some LQ shots of the MV



Erina is smiling!



It looks amazingly low budget!



Also someone please tell me that's not Aika dressed as an old man.

[/quote]



Well, when does Mitsui not look like an old man ?



The preview shots look as low budget as all of the latest MM music videos do, very much.

[momoirosaya]

Looks super low budget. :P

[Shoujo Q]

Low budget? Looks to me like three costumes, that's how UFA does high budget these days. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /crazy.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':crazy:' />

According to this site, the arranger for Maji Desu ka Ska! is Masanori Takumi.

That name does not ring a bell with me.

But I don't know anybody besides Tsunku at UFA anyway.

[Noa]

Doesn't the single come out this month? Shouldn't we have a full PV already?

[Anderei]

Google says he does music for anime and a few artists, and that he arranged this song as well.



Single comes out in two weeks, so the MV will probably be out very soon.

They are probably waiting till Bijo Gaku airs to show the full thing to the general public (Us). It's available already on cellphone sites in Japan which is were the screen shot images came from. :D

Wow, someone new who sounds like the most standard arranger possible.

What was the point?

Well, at least I correctly identified Okubo for the B-side.



The random old man costume was giving me hopes for an I WISH style storyline,

but I know better. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... lleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rolleyes:' /> I wonder if they're all old men, or each given a different role.

Hm, then we don't have too long to wait. I'm surprised no one has figured out how to put it on youtube yet though.



More importantly, who is the guy in your avatar?

That's T.O.P from Big Bang, he's hawt and I am totally gay for him and his deep sexy voice. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' />



The new Bijo Gaku is out and there's a longer preview of the PV. I hear on H!O the real thing will be out today at some point so stay tuned.

[Pucchi-Mo]

Ok, the GIANT TITLE in the background is a little better because they actually interact with it halfway through. Bijo Gaku shows them in 2 more outfits, but the PV cut only has one, so far. I wonder if the alternate versions have them, or if they just practiced for the PV in other clothes. The floor was black & white striped then goes to Blue checkered for the chorus, so I guess the next part could have new outfits since other things change.



Ikuta & Sayashi do the Takahashi(take off is now)Squat pose in the intro! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... >/rofl.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

[mrsross]

I'm loving what I see so far. It probably was cheap making the PV but everything looks so good together. I can't wait to see the entire thing.

[freezingkiss]

Kanon is so cute and excited. She so deserves to be there. Adorable little chipmunk. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> She cracks me up too, pointing her arm through that big 'MA' made me laugh.



I hope this new fan show they have coming out has lots of games and silly stuff like H!M did to show off their personalities and such.

[al kusanagi]

Riho = greatest thing ever <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' />



Also, stiletto heels Sayu and Aika boobs.

[Ap2000]

I don't know about you guys, but I think Mizuki's black and white dress is too sexy for a 14 years old.



While the "majidesukasuka" background doesn't look bad and rather fitting, there should be different stuff in the video too. The way it seems to turn out it's really cheap...

[Noa]

Alright, this is completely adorable and I definitely like it already. Everything Kanon does just makes me like her more. Riho is still my favorite, but Kanon is a pretty close second. I feel like they stand out a bit too much from the older members because their jackets are so much more vibrant.

[eri]

Kanon is the human equivalent of this face: (^-^)

That's all I think about when I see her and her little scrunched up smiley-eyes (in a good way).



Great to see Riho as the newly pimped 9th gen girl. A simple PV but one that looks fun and wonderfully choreographed.

[Mukuro]

I'm going to be so impatient till the PV comes out now. It looks really good now, since we have a larger snippet and I'm hoping they have some random accent in this to make it different.

[Anderei]

Kanon > everybody else. She's a nice change to the bland and cookie cutter personalities. Mizuki is probably my second favorite. Erina and Riho aren't really keeping my interests.

[alita87]

As soon as the PV went up for sale yesterday I bought it. It's simple yes, but it's very fun and fits the image of introducing the four new girls perfectly.



All of the girls look great, the jackets are hit or miss but in this case they work well with the Ska feeling I think. Mizuki does look sexy yes, but remember that that is why Tsunku picked her, as she was the slightly older more mature one.



I love the dance and can't wait to see it performed in concert. I wish I had a ticket to opening weekend but it crossed over with Smileage's live.

[AquaChan]

This looks simple (and cheap), but I just love the colors! They make their outfit stand out much more!

And this song is growing on me XD

[momoirosaya]

Oh gosh I really love it! It was really fun and I couldn't help smiling at the kyuukies adorableness! Especially Riho~ It's simple, but really nice! Ooh Riho and Ai dancing together at 6:50 <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> Also Erina pointing to the giant "de" was really cute~ Fuku-chan's free dance shot was adorable!!! And Kanon is just so cute <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... R#>/XD.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':XD:' /> Haha Risa was all smiling while watching eat bread.

[Melon]

Oh god, oh god, the CUTENESS! I love the cookies. Kanon gets cuter each time I see her, Riho is just so damn cool/cute I can't keep my eyes off her, Mizuki has that mature look to her, and Erina reserves her cuteness and you can see it peeking out but she's so shy/awkward it only comes out in tiny spurts. Gaaaah <3 <3 <3 <3 I'm pooping hearts it's so adorable!

[Miss Moonlight]

Ok, I thought the song was kinda dumb after watching the episode where they first started recording it, but now I can't stop smiling! And when was the last time EVERYONE had a solo line before Ai started singing?? (not that I'm complaining <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> Still reeeally gonna miss her)

[showraniy]

Cactus!



The PV looks really good! Cheap is not synonymous with bad, after all, so I'm extremely happy with how it's shaping up.



Also, Ai in dem boots. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' />

[Anderei]

Radio rip of the b-side



I still like it, but for those who didn't like the heavy synth, it's there throughout.

[Haru]

Am I just stupid, or am I the only thinking that this is a long time to wait for a PV?

There's...what, two weeks until the single drops?

It definitely is a long time, but I think because it was the 1st for the 9th gen, they could get away with the suspense. We also had teasers through Bijo Gaku.



Since there are 4 new girls, it probably slowed things down. In most other cases, they can crank out a new PV and not have to take the time to train n00bs. They truly haven't added 4 new girls since 2001. *Fujimoto was already a star, Mizuki is ok, but she didn't have a full career (snatched from her grips <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... dammit.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':dammit:' /> ).

Considering the earthquake I can see why they didn't release it. I'm sure they were planning to release it this weekend but mother nature got in the way. Damn her. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... dammit.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':dammit:' />

[BonkyuAsh]

I'm thinking next Bijo Gaku will show the PV.
