Here I am once again with a Nogizaka46 review. This time it's their newest single Harujion ga Sakukoro.
So, the time has finally come for a popular Nogi member to graduate from the group. We are talking about Fukagawa Mai, who has been one of the most popular girls for a few years now. Because of that she was chosen as the center for this single! I'm really happy that she got to center for the first and the last time. I don't know her that well, but she's a great Idol and has the popularity. The rest of the line-up is almost the same as it was in the last single, except for Miona being back in senbatsu. I really appreciate this move since she did really well in the Unders. But I do hope we will see some more change in the next single. :)
Harujion ga Sakukoro is a typical Nogizaka46 song. Well, it's not their best as it didn't really hit me at the first listen. BUT it is a really beautiful song and it is quite emotional. Especially the bridge part right before the last chorus is so lovely and the end is so soothing.
It's a really fitting graduation song as it has deep lyrics. I also love how it features the Harujion flower.
So yeah, it's a great song :)
Moving on to the video:
At first we can se MaiMai's back

WTF, suddenly shes with the center?
Mai: I choose Miona!
That's some serious face
Wakarei aren't involved into any drama
Naachan; Stop and look at me!
That's a cute dance
The non-Fukujin are cheering the Fukujin
Mai is throwing the flowers..
.. and Miona catches them.. of course.
Does that mean she will be in Fukujin by the next single? Going fast right?
Mai: Miona, I will take you to the front.
Miona: Thank youuu
The two are quite cute together, but it's still strange
Miona center??
Miona: Mai, I love you! I will miss you.
Mai: Love you too. We will meet again!
Then we are looking at Mai's back for a long time.
Doryoku, Kansha, Egao. Uchira wa Nogizaka noborizaka!
That smile :')
You want me to cry?
We will meet again!
You did it *cries in a corner*
Bye, bye Fukagawa Mai!!
And with that I will try to explain this complicated graduation present for Fukagawa. There are many different scenes like solo shots and dance shots. But most importantly, there is a scene with everyone in Kimono and this one has a story. And this story is really hard to understand if you ask me. It seems everyone is in love with someone. There are a few couples, e.g Ashurin&Nanami, Ikuchan&Minami and of course Wakarei (everyone's favourite couple). But there are also a few more complicated relations. Kazu is in love with Naachan, Naachan is in love with Maiyan, Manatsu is in love with Misa. But Maiyan, Misa and Miona are all in love with MaiMai. And after some funny moves by Misa, she finally decides for Miona and shoves her to the center position. This might be a hint for a new Miona push, but we all now what didn't (immediately) happen after the Paruru hint in Mae shika Mukanee. Well, but this is Nogi, so we will see. Except for some confusing scenes, this was a really pleasing PV colourwise and all the girls looked so beautiful The Kimonos are stunning and I also like how they included the Harujion flowers! :D And of course it's sad, especially in the end and I really had to cry there. Why are they doing that to us???
But yeah, I would say it's a perfect goodbye for Fukagawa. Of course I'm sad, but I am also looking to the new future of both her and the group and feel excited!
Nogi doesn't disappoint, this is a great single!
Bye for now~
