It's so ethereal, I love it.  Zukki's close-ups are beautiful, and honestly they all look beautiful (though the way Haruna has her hair is distracting).  I love the thing Ayumi does with the CG, as soon as I saw it my heart swelled with joy, which I know is kind of corny but it's legit.

It took a while, but I really like this song now. A lot. The video is pretty good for what they spent on it, but I can't help but think that it could have been so much better. The dance is spotty, IMO -- some parts are beautiful and others really awkward -- and I hate "air musicians" of any kind, so the opening is especially bad to me.

This song seems to be almost universally loved by MM fans, so it'll be interesting to see how well it does with casual fans.

The dance is OK, they can do better :) The part that bothered me the most is at the very beginning of the MV where they were pretending to play pianos and violins, it just looked so awkward and silly. Couldn't they get them actual pianos and violins? I normally dislike excessive close ups but the girls look so beautiful that I couldn't care less :lol:

Full Version was uploaded onto their YouTube channel this morning. I can't believe I'm saying this but Riho actually sounded good in this single.

Here's thelink
Maa-chan is so pretty here. Also it's funny to see Eripon smiling a bit while the have more serious faces considering it used to be the other way around.

Leave it to Maa-chan to purify the world.
I hate the dance. The girls can do much better, much more gracefully.

The dance at the end is pretty graceful, why couldn't the whole thing be like that...

I'm loving the Riho-Kanon duo @2:53
 
Usually, the close-ups doesn't really surprise me but, I love Kudo @1:52
She looks so high, like "eeeeeeeeehm... you said hamburger?"

I finally got around to watching the full MV and I must say that the part right after the dance break is simply wonderful. Its so beautiful.

In case anyone hadn't already guessed, Ookubo did the arrangement for both songs.

Is there an English translation?  Or a summary, at least.

Password Is 0 is out!

The MV is so much fun to watch and their dancing is so much better here than in Toki wo Koe :) Overall apart from the dance I prefer everything about Toki wo Koe :) I don't dislike Password Is 0, it's great but I don't think it lives up to it's fellow A-side :)

The Password costumes are probably the best they've had in years, but ugh, everything else about this single is such a dud for me.
 
Promo, I guess. Kanon went on Go Go Smile while she was in Aichi. If I see any other TV appearances by the other members, I'll post them.

I don't like how they're hair looks with this filter. Look at 8:42
But the MV is nice, kinda 'standard' but those green numbers and close-ups are great

I didn't see anything odd at 8:42. What specifically do you not like?

^ The black parts of their hair aren't black, it has a dark red shade on it, and the shiny black parts aren't black as well, they're kinda blue/green
Maybe it's not easy to see, but it seems like they have just a few shots with that filter, and I'm glad

Good outfits, cool dance, decent song and the girls all look great. I wish this was the secondary A side, though, because "Toki..." is fucking amazing, and this is just sort of okay.

I thought this was the secondary A-side, no? Since it's listed second on the covers: (Not quoting them all, but they all list it second)

Interesting. I just assumed since it was the second to be released publicly that "Zero" was the main track. Guess not.

It should be, since it's got the big CM deal behind it. But they haven't performed live on TV except for NHK yet anyway.

Now I'm wondering what does the 'Promotion Ver.' mean? It's in Password and TokiSora MVs
Does this mean there will be more versions? Or 'Promotion Ver.' is what we all know as MV?

I believe it just means that it's the shortened version and not the full MV.

If you recall to earlier days, mvs were called Promotional Videos so it could just be that. I wondered the same thing.
