The last song is quite the better one in terms of visuals -- I love the idea of them raising the flowers when it's their turn to sing lol

 

I agree with Kumi-chan, I'll list the songs, in terms of song appeal, in that order as well.

 

Also, since when did we have members that had more than two solo lines in a recently-released single? WOW for UFP for pushing this new gen harder this time than even other gens that debuted in recent times, it honestly felt like a fresh single with a different vibe from the previous Tsubaki releases. I hope Yuumi doesn't strain her vocals early on in the game like how MM did with pushing Sayashi so much in front so early in her tenure. This single felt a lot more balanced with a lot less of Kiki though, but still...

Order of the most to the least favorite song: Namida no Heroine, Garakuta Diamond and Yakusoku Renraku Kinenbi

 

I admit that Yakusoku Renraku Kinenbi's MV is the best among the three, but the song is too nostalgic. It reminds me of what is sung more than 10 years ago by H!P, which I don't like. Garakuta Diamond is similarly nostalgic, but it's a much better song in my opinion.

[Juandalyn]

I like it. And I'm probably biased, but Kishimon was SO good in this whole single. Saori also impressed me, though, and Kisora had some good parts. And the new generation looks great.

[midnightbottle]

The 3rd a-side is ok. The outfits reminded me of what MM wore for their last single. But the visuals of the music video is the best out of the 3.

I am not exactly hooked to any of the songs yet. Think it's missing something the Tsubaki sound.

 

And this is how you give everyone a piece of spotlight. I hope the other groups start to learn, especially MM. Everyone has a solo line or two in all the a-sides, it's really refreshing!!

It's Tsubaki, not MM. They're not gonna give her all the solo lines to the points where it feels like a solo song, so i'm not worried

Yakusoku Renraku Kinenbi is my favourite of the new releases. It's the only song that stuck in my head, and the PV is so pretty. After that is Heroine mostly because of the PV, and finally Garakuta Diamond which...I kind of found entirely unremarkable.

 

But I'm really happy with the line distribution in everything, especially how much the new gen is featured. Really looking forward to live performances of these songs!

[YellowAccel]

Personally, Namida<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Yakusoku=Garakuta

 

Still a pretty solid release. Tsubaki never dissapoint and the new gen is gonna make them stronger than ever. If they add new members regulary, i hope they will always be as perfect as this gen for Tsubaki.

[honeyharunanfan]

Yakusoku Renraku Kinenbi is great! I was surprised to see Kiki join Mao for the dance break, that was pretty rad. With Riko and Kishimon following up after them too.

 

I can't really rank the songs since I like all of them quite a bit. This single delivered on all aspects, in my opinion. It's a good start into this new era for the group.

I agree! My current song ranking too! But the more I listen to Garakuta the more I like it So maybe Yakusoku might be the same.

Namida is my current jam and I am humming it all day along.

Ad god the dance break give me life in Yakuosoku so powerful cool!!!

And I love how they manage to let the old gen shine but included the new girls with lines too! so happy! I hope they keep on doing it in the next releases too.

[mizukingdom1]

My ranking for the songs would be:

1. Namida- Wasn't into it at first as I didn't think it suited them but now I find myself listening to it on repeat since it is such a good song

2. Yakusoku- This song is like the classic girly Tsubaki we all know

3. Garakuta- I don't like it... something about the instrumentation I don't vibe with

[kagura san]

wow i love  the 3 songs, differents styles , color of voices  and  well we  know the Center of the 2cond gen is YUMI

[Kimagure Princess]

OK, this release is just great. I didn't care much about the last 2 singles and was kinda dissapointed with them, and I was really happy that they got a triple A with such cool songs.

The new members really shine, I came to really like Runo and Yuumi after watching the PVs. 

For me, Yakusoku is no. 1 (so catchy!!), Garakute no. 2 and  Namida no. 3. But I love them all!

[Blackmallow]

Been listening to the 3 songs (MV and concert) for a few weeks and I can't decide. I love them all the same. This just might be my favorite HP single of all time (let's see how well it stands after a million listens) and is surely my favorite since Sexy Cat/ Mukidashite / Sou Janai.

[Lalalaalala]

so I've had a chance to listen to all the songs now

 

and honestly... they're a whole ass vibe haha 

 

Namida no heroine kind of reminds me of c-ute but with the tsubaki sound still and damn the new girls are good!!! 

 

garakuta diamond sounds very tsuabki but i feel like the vocals are better than usual - maybe i'm imagining it.. but the new girls keep blowing me away, they're so talented !!!!

 

 

Yakusoku・Renraku・Kinenbi kind of sounds old school H!P to me - and i LOVE it, it might be my favourite of the three. 

 

everyone got a time to shine in this single - especially the new 3, and they really feel like a whole group.. if i was worried, i definitely am not anymore haha

[rurupedia]

i still have yet to listen to the other songs on the single (sorry i procrastinate anything and everything possible. haven't gotten to teenage solution either) but i adore the kpop-lite sounds of namida no heroine kouban geki. the guitar riff is killer. also the mv is gorgeous i love the scenes of the members suspended in air with the camera panning, and the dance shot scenes are so stylish. the song definitely doesn't fit tsubaki that well, especially with the new members, but it still works imo. and i love kishimon and ami oh my goddddd

[Nayok-Kihara]

I haven't watched the whole Budokan yet, but based on what I have seen it feels like we've had a general vocals level up again.

[Lalalaalala]

^ ohh where can i watch the budokan? sorry if this is the wrong place to ask

[ulises]

^ aidoru-online is the place you're looking for.
