Oooh...this would be the first single that I actually like since I started listening to AKB a few months ago. It's not exactly the kind of music I would listen to, but it is kind of rock-ish in a way (since I'm a rock fan).

Could there be some gruesome Halloween-themed stuff in the PV? Maybe that's why she's screaming...

[Krusha]

I've heard reports of fighting, blood, Acchan's arm cut off, etc.

Pre-ordered regular A+B, and limited A+B today

[taskinist]

It's supposedly like a video game where everybody's killing eachother and Yuko stabs Acchan's hand (which is why she screams)

[droopy10]

I already pre-ordered the limited A & B versions and I just wanted to check to see if the only difference between the limited A & B and regular A & B is the handshake tix and voting tix and nothing different with the cd and dvd content?

Looking forward to seeing to PV

[Arche-JoIyO]

A videogame? I didn't get a videogame vibe but well let's see...


Not sure about the hand being cut off part though lol

[anhh]

PV preview:

[droopy10]

Who is "DIVA"? They are listed as one of the groups on this single, on cdjapan. I think type A had senbatsu, undergirls and Mint, the pigg winner and on type B had DIVA instead of Mint. Are they just the 2nd undergirls grouping posted earlier?

[°C-ute-Fan!]

the song is not bad...I think the best song since River *_*

but whats this PV idea!? >.>
it sounds not sooooo great...

[Penmaster]

I ordered "Beginner" just now.

[Luigi ★]

The pv looks so amazing and wierd, i love the prewiew

First post in AKB section
But this song is so awesome I can't even put it into words.
The last one I reall adored was River but I like quite a few of their newer stuff and some of their old Singles.
This Single really catched my attention, though. I like this dark felling and somehow the 15 seconds I saw of the PV make me curious, I think I will like it because it's not what you expect from AKB or an idolgroup in general.
I so look forward to it, I hope I can afford to buy the single

[✮DanDan✮]

Wow...Thats all i have to say the girls head being cut off...o.o
When i saw the covers it gave me a River/Seifuku ga jama wo suru/Keibetsu Shiteita Aijou kind of vibe and it totally is dark yet addicting i want to see PV now

My first post in AKB section.....All i have to say is AKB FORTY-EIGHT XDD

[Amee.]

^ Welcome
I HOPE YOU WILL JOIN US AT THE DARK SIDE AND BECOME AKB48fanboy297!
Hopefully this will make up for the loss of the newbie fans that came with HR ( ).

[✮DanDan✮]

^ I was part of the dark side an AKB fan before i even knew H!P existed but im fans of both and i would do that but can you change ur username?

[Khady]

I love the vibe of this song, it's just gets better and better each single

From the sounds and looks of the PV is sounds so sick, but so so so so awesome

[greah]

I've heard reports of fighting, blood, Acchan's arm cut off, etc.

to be honest - I don't get it. First typical idol pop PVs, then pure fanservice single and now gore, dismembered limbs, screams and beheaded Kojiharu?
It looks like after they reached 500k AkiP decided to test his new ideas on us... or maybe he's thinking about 2nd keibetsu



deadly ChupaChup with Cojima haruna on it rocks... so as the violent TRON idea

[Krusha]

Well, Aki-P released his own ideas from the beginning; songs with a rather different take on things than other idol groups. Suicide as a theme for example. And a different way of being an idol group.

From the beginning til now, Aki-P & Co. have never shyed away from trying out new things, or doing tings their way. It's just that with less backing/support, it's more difficult to take big chances.

Now when they're the biggest female group in Japan - they can do whatever they want to do, more or less. Where others before got complacent and started repeating themselves over and over, Aki-P & Co. seem to treat this as a "go with the flow" game.

And Aki-P himself have stated that he don't really know everything, there's no clear road map of what's to come. They make it up as they go along.

All I know is that predicting PV's from AKB48 is impossible.

PS: This image/slogan says it all:

[droopy10]

That shirt is awesome! Wish I had one

[Azul]

Be-be-headed Kojiharu? Oh Harunyan you may be my oshimen but that sounds EPIC.
I'm sorry

[Thiago3T]

I've heard reports of fighting, blood, Acchan's arm cut off, etc.

Yes. Some girls die in PV (as you can see in Prevew). But the only who blood is Acchan..... the reason is....

Spoiler

After her charater got hit on the game, she get her hand/arm cut off.... (is her scream in audio)

It look the girls feel what their virutal persons suffer in the game


(First..... We will have a game to have date with the girl..... and now..... another one to kill them?)

To be honest..... I don´t know what expect this single. I like the music because is similar "River" (my favorite AKB song)..... but, as Krusha said, the PV theme is little unsual. Akimoto is taking advantage the group success to show all your ideas. The result we see PV´s very different each other, for an idol group. The question is until where the limit of all this?

And the t-shirt is pure win!
