Really weird that Berryz will be ending The covers and outfits are lovely!

Really surprised that they let Maasa wear a skirt and not trousers

[CAiTlin_Beat]

I haven't bought one of their singles for a very long time but I'm definitely going to buy this single. Berryz introduced me to H!P back in 2007-2008 and now they're disbanding H!P will be so weird without them.

Why'd they have to ManoEri it they could have had one more single, but all of the covers besides maybe the yellow one look really nice so I'm excited for this bittersweet release.

[Mizura]

Its nice to see them all look good in outfits, usually they end up styling Risako, Miyabi, or Maasa badly.

[LeoHamasaki]

Wow, this is so sad! 

Berryz is my favorite idol group ever... And to see their last single is so heartbreaking.

Well, I love  the covers! The throwback is amazing! And I hope this single is great.

[Juandalyn]

It's their very last single?   I hope they'll get at least a final album then...

 

The outfits are beautiful. The white ones are really elegant, the plaid ones are the back-to-the-roots outfits...

...I just wish they would've hired a more professional person for the covers. They are not bad, we've seen far worse covers in the past lol. But a lot of them still look like they've been done by hobbyists (not saying amateurs because as said, they're not really bad).

 

More cover talk under the spoiler.

Regular A is nice, I think it's my favourite cover. It would've been even better if Saki and Chinami played with the "window", too.

I like Regular B too, but their skin looks a bit unpolished. Maybe it's the quality, though. What I don't like is the yellow font. What's UF*'s obsession with yellow?!

Limited A is... oh god were should I start. It's really weird. Awkward stars (are those the kind of stars that work as a lamp??) that aren't rendered well. The group looks like cut-out-and-glued-on, too... even though the girls look very nice. Then, the coloured geometrics... it wouldn't have been that bad if they just had these and no stars. Then the group name unrendered in the corner - that's... not as bad as MM's OTT's mess back then, but it's simply not professional.

Limited B reminds me a bit of Adam to Eve's LED. However... again, the group is not rendered well (I wish they'd use the same, good photographer for all groups...), plus this is not a good photo for Miya, Maasa and Yurina. The plain background worked for °C-ute's cover, but here it's... too empty. They could've put the group a bit higher and the title below/center below...

Limited C is a better cover again. I like the idea with the stars in the background (it would be cool if the song had a star/sign theme!), the background is neither dull nor too full. Also, the girls don't look like they don't belong into the cover, they're inserted into the picture much better than in the other covers.

Limited D ... again, what the hell is this company's obsession with yellow. It's a signal colour, yes, but... not in a good way. I like the idea of the B in the background, though. The rest is very plain.

 

Maybe I'm a bit picky because back in the day, when I still did signatures and avatars (football themed haha), the members of the forum I was in always picked on these points in my works. It was not mischievous picking, but helpful critic. And since we all were hobbyists, I wonder what kind of professionals are hired to make these covers...

 

EDIT: Covers for the new page.

Limited A and C are pretty

 

I'm getting this song in itunes. (Since my purchase won't count anyway). The regular covers...eh, they seem alright. I'm hoping for regular A to be the cover in itunes.

 

Edit: so wait a minute. Going by the covers, Towa no Uta's outfits are the plaid ones?

[spotkatt]

Didn't one of their t-shirts say 'there's no life without Berryz ?

[G☆LE]

Yep.

I feel like 10nen Yatt. was basically the reasons and the background of why they are disbanding and towa no uta is kind of a final goodbye.

[LovelyPrincessP]

I'm in love with the Limited B.

 

I'm really fuming about the idea I'll have to use a proxy service to get a single to count on Oricon (like seriously **** them) but if there's any good reason to go the extra mile it'll certainly be this. I've been prepared for the H!P Kids to start departing but it's still just mind boggling to imagine H!P without a Berryz Kobou next year. 

[Snipey]

The yellow background, B and those outfits give me Beatle vibes.

[Bunnystylesarah]

I honestly can't believe this is their last single...
They better promote the hell out of it!

I really love the covers, looks like it's another round of buying for me!

[Mirachiii]

im just so sad that this is their last single :'( theyre the very first h!p group that i loved and its them who dragged me into this fandom.

but i gotta say, EVERYONE IS BEAUTIFUL. its SO RARE to have every single one of the members (esp in BK) to have looks this pretty. the stylist did well this time

Risako looks like a goddess and Maasa is looking very slimming. ALL OF THEM LOOKS STUNNING.

and with the single, its simple, but i like it. clean and on point!

[Venus92]

So this is really their last singel..?...

NO WAY!!! I don't want to believe it!

Their my first Idol group I got to know, the first group I loved and followed

April (spring) is still so far away, why can't they give out one more singel after this?!

 

But, on a happier note, I LOVE the covers!!

Regular A & B + limited A are all my favorites (Hmm.. which to get...)

And the girls look so beautiful and their clothes/outfits are great and really to my liking

[korokorori]

From yurina's blog; romance wo kakatte is a cutesy song that is not really berry-like (in which maybe in a good way i dunno) they form heart mark in their dance

towa no uta is a rockish song (the outfit looks so much like their first single outfit. First=last)

I think tsunku had also comment about this single

despite having no money i feel the greed to have all the version of this single.. T-T it got so lonely. Even though they have not graduate yet somehow i missed them so much. And hello project looked and feel so different (with all thr rush and announcement too)

[Margie GiGi]

Omg i feel like crying just thinking this is Berryz last MV I will EVER see from them.    I feel in love with H!p because of C-ute, Berryz and, Buono. They had the kind of music I liked in 2007/2008 (Still do well expect Buono only because, they havent realsed anything in forver!)To think I will never be able to hear or see the members anymore I always thought Berryz would ALWAYS be in H!p I guess u can say i took them for granted.

[moonxdark'17]

Whaaaat? I am so disappointed this will be their last single!

 

The outfits and covers look very nice. Here's hoping this single will be amazing and sells really well. I want them to go out with a bang!

[ai'deal aqira]

this is their last...so, does it means that this is officially their graduated single?

 

(I really prefer indefinite hiatus than disbanding, so that I can keep telling myself they will come back someday).

 

BTW I like reg a & b cover. so which one outfits for towa no uta?

[G☆LE]

Towa is plaid.

[Margie GiGi]

There outfits look good for both A sides. I hope we get a preview soon, even if its a TINY one lol. I’m so excited to hear this single more than any other Berryz single ever!! I wonder if one of the MV's is going to make me cry? . Probably....
