Wow what a PV!

The beginning with Karin & Akari! Love it! The whole song is so powerful and nice lyrics! (something different than usual)

The PV scenes are nice and I really like the single outfits and the casual ones  

[IchVermisseDenSommer]

I really love this MV so far. Visually it's super pleasing! And the song is a masterpiece anyway

 

^ I so agree. Karin and Uemuu were so strong at the start of this

[DiegoKashiwagi]

i like it!

[honeyharunanfan]

It's here!

 

 

Possibly JJ's strongest showing recently, but so far 2019 has been great for them overall.

 

The only things I'd complain about are the dance breakdown which felt forced like H!P ones usually do imho, and not giving Yuka, Tomoko, and Sayuki the emo scenes in casual clothing. The other 4 members were all heavily featured in that aspect, it just felt a bit randomly unfair lol? Not a major issue for me though, I still enjoyed the MV, but I couldn't help but noticing it.

Very weak song for me after the incredible "Sexy Sexy" and the blast that have been "Lightly sparkling" but the MV is great and colorfull. I tend do dislike 3m30s tittle generally, it's too fast. But I really like "25 years old forever" and "Goodbye and good luck".

Well I mean Bitansan only had Karin and Manakan so this is a 100% improvement 

[YellowAccel]

It’s a really good song, but strangely, i don’t see myself listening the full song more than once or twice. After the first, i’m like "Ok, that?s enough"

[KawaiiLand]

Simple song to be honest, its catchy but too simple. Normal MV , not something to be wow about. Ruru is amazing , when will they gave her a center prominence song 

[Fall]

I looped Ruru's solo so many times after the first listen, I may as well have had the song on repeat. I don't know if this song will have quite the same level of staying power for me that some of their past ones had (I still randomly sing Jidanda Dance and Fiesta Fiesta multiple times each week), but the chorus is really solid and has an impact that hits almost perfectly into the range of what I'd personally expect for an earworm.

[Punkin]

Hopefully when the group drops to 6nin they’ll keep that lineup without change for a long while and Ruru will get a better chance at center lines. It’s just tough though because now the group is full of “center girls” and good singers. There aren’t any members to have as “background” girls anymore - which is a good thing if they use that as an advantage. They have a seriously powerhouse group on their hands, all the girls should get equal attention to get the most out of a lineup like this.

Ruru solo line is awesome,,

For the 2 MVs releasing on the same day, I like the J=J one much more than the MM'19 one.

[ShiningLight445]

The yellow outfits aren't overpowering in the MV like the covers. They look fantastic in the MV!

[rainbow]

I really really love Ruru's solo line!! Ruru's is awesome, easily one of the best vocalist of H!P and my favourite one!

 

The PV is good and the song is totally amazing for me, I can't stop repeating it in my head!!!

 

J=J has the best vocalists right now as a whole! 

[IchVermisseDenSommer]

Okay I love the song but the reason why I'm looping this is the lighting and the MV overall.

The lighting color combos in the dance shots are a little off imo but in the rest of the video the lighting is EXCEPTIONAL! I'm so surprised no one else on here is talking about it? They did an amazing job with it. Also with the set in general

 

Someone on twitter compared the location with the way it looked in the MV and omg it's so amazing

All of these make me want to cry. That's how beautiful this is imo!

[✮DanDan✮]

I'm in consensus with the rest of the thread when I say that Ruru's solo line was amazing and if I could have 10 hours of it I would.

The lighting is so pretty, but that may just be because I love those colors, but it does somehow convey the tone of the MV.

I dont know but for me this does sound like a vocaloid song which isnt a criticism. It's just something different that H!P has done.

I don't know if you ever watch Vince's reaction videos on youtube (H!O's own miyooooons/formerly MysteryMoms), but he gave it high praise and I think I recall his mentioning that the lighting is basically his aesthetic, particularly in the room scenes. I'm a bit more torn though. I think the that lighting is objectively good, but I have a personal bias against redscale that I think is preventing me from appreciating it as much as I otherwise may have because of how it feels so tinted. To the credit of the lighting though, I do have a better appreciation for the darker tones in the PV where they hit the mark perfectly. I think that being in an actual room, the purples would have been a bit stronger in person and probably made the room look amazing, but digitally recorded, that redness just creeps in sliiiightly too much for my own tastes.

 

^I hadn't made any kind of vocaloid connection, but now that you've said it, I kind of get that from the dance break.

25sai Eien Setsu live performance at 11:34.

 

Yuka basically sings the entire song with other members joining her for the chorus and verses, with the bridge being a solo by Yuka. She also spends the entire time in the center of the dance formation. Even if they may retire this song from JJ's catalogue after Yuka's graduation, I'm very pleased they made her shine so much for her final single.

I wouldn't say it's random. Miyamoto, Uemura, and Inaba are not "just emo at home" they're different shades of the song's theme (I read them as emotional-coldness, loneliness, and weakness respectively). Danbara is some other aspect (lit differently, outdoors, I can't place the emotional content). Kanazawa & Takagi are on the posters, I'd call it "inside" of what Danbara is "outside" of. Miyazaki is the only one I'd say is "simply missing." But I also have nothing good to say about her performance in the video...

Juice=Juice debuts at number 2 on the Oricon chart with 54,452 singles sold!! 

Those are great numbers! I can not find a single of them that sold so well on it's first day!

They are less that 4000 copies away from the number 1, so that's amazing!
