Because of this being Rena's last single, she was chosen as the center, which makes this her very first and last solo center of an SKE48 single! I don't even want to think about her theater graduation tomorrow, but more about this then.. *sigh*
But because of her graduation we finally have a Rena solo center. Which was waaaaaaaay overdue if you ask me! She should have had several solo centers, but at least it's happening now. Jurina is of course right next to Rena in this line-up. On Rena's other side is - big suprise!!! - the new 7th Generation member Goto Rara. Since I didn't really know the new gen before, I didn't know this girl, so of course I was surprised.. And like a lot of people I rather wished for a Jurina-Rena-Churi front. But seeing Rara in person I like her more and more and she is such a cutie! The rest of the 19 member line-up is mostly the same. I knew Kyon would be out after one single, but I'm more surprised that Futamura and Miyamae are out of it. Especially Harutamu is a pretty popular member and Miyamae was pushed a lot. Hell, she even was part of the double center of 12gatsu no Kangaroo not too long ago!! Do they want to pull a Mizuho again or what?? Let's hope they will be back in the next Single.
But let's talk about the actual song now. Mae Nomeri is not a ballad, but still somehow sad and melancholic. At the same time it is still a rather fast song and has a lot of energy which makes it so typical SKE. It does feel like a graduation song, but more like a looking forward type instead of a nostalgic ride to the past. As you might guess already, I like this song a loooooot!! It's just really bittersweet to me with the Rena center, her graduation and such a beautiful song.
Onto the video:
If you didn't know the title and artist until now, now you know ;)
Starring Matsui Rena at the Radio broadcoasting where she announced her graduation. OMG, the feels.. :o

Those are some REAL emotions! I love Rena for that
Rara can't believe she is in senbatsu
She looks quite tanned, which is cool :3

Rena: Look at my kingdom with all those cute girls!
Suddenly a serious Rena appears.
Damn, Jurina, go to bed and sleep a bit! o.o
Gyaaaah :3
Jurina is not amused.
Churi: Anyone wanna buy my self-made Origami things?
Rara has some very interestiing looks!
Now Rena is also going to their place
OMG, Minarun looks so cute.. I can't o.o

Churi must feel like a princess here, haha
But this is the real queen!
She's coming closer!
This dance move is awesome!
Rena: Where are my members?

Yeay, let's play hide&seek

Emotions are killing me (why am I still alive, haha)

This cake looks awesome (and I'm usually not even such a big fan of cakes!!)
Yeah, let's go swimming with our clothes still on XD
JRA!!!
The feeeeeeels
Everyone has so much fun..
Oh Jurina.. XD
Look at that pure laugh
OMG, why are they doing this?????
There will be no wMatsui anymore, we knoooow.. why do this to us??
Gaaaaaaaah D':
Even though it's still freaking sad, those shots are just really epic!
Let's go back now..
Are they waving the to beach?
Smiling while crying..
My wMatsui shipper heart can't take this...
The dance is still awesome and this group has so much fun!
I know why they are my favourite 48group!
Rena-chan forever!!!!!!!
And with that it ends.. Too suddenly if you ask me, but uh well..
The whole video has simply been a trip of feels. It was perfect in every way.. which also means it makes me cry everytime I watch it. The whole Summer theme with the beach is so beautiful and happy. It shows again that there is no need for bikinis to create a Summer vibe! The school outfits are simple and cute and the dance is so beautiful. I NEED to learn it!!
Then we have the surprise farewell party for Rena, that is prepared by the other members. When Rena finally meets them she talks with all of the members and there are a lot of tears. This is probably one of the saddest parts of the whole video. They are having a lot of fun but in the end they realise that she will graduate and there is a sadder atmosphere. And who thought of that wMatsui running scene??? It's so perfect, especially how Rena then suddenly disappears and only Jurina is left. Like, how can they do that? My heart was already broken, but this was even worse..
Well, I really like how many emotions were shown in this video, especially on Rena's side. She was always a very honest persons and she gave everything in this video and most importantly she was HERSELF! She really enjoyed her last single.
The other members were of course also shining, and it didn't feel like they were only backdancers. They've all shown so much emotions which was awesome to see. I especially like how energetic all of them were in the dance shot. In contrast, the farewell party was just really sad..
In the end, I don't even know what to feel anymore.. I just know that this is an awesome video, and the best last single for a graduating member ever! (right after Mikaeri Bijin)
I shows how awesome Rena is, which makes it even harder to think about her graduation. But it's also just simply an amazing song with a lovely song!!
Let's cry some more!! T.T
