Happy Easter everyone :)
It's Easter aaand.. it's still snowing outside.. It's the end of march and it's sooo cold!!!
I just want better weather!!!!
*sigh*
So while sitting here inside my room, I thought of watching some videos (like I always do). I then found some videos of the last Music Station show. There were AKB48 (with Karen in the line-up :O :D ), Takamina, Momoclo, Kis-my-ft2 and others, so I thought ''Why not watch THAT?''. And yes, I watched it and enjoyed it. Momoclos and Takaminas weren't really their best performances, but I really liked AKB48's performances. ''Tenohira ga Kataru Koto'' is the song they did this year for the earthquake victims of 2011. It's a really beautiful song and I actually like it more than ''So long''. They also performed ''10nen Zakura'', their Sakura song of 2009.
OMG I was sooo happy. The song is soo cool. You know, it's one of these songs that makes you feel good!! In comparison to ''Sakura no Shiori'' and ''Sakura no ki ni narou'' it's pretty upbeat. The other two are ballads that show the sadness of a graduation, but ''10nen Zakura'' shows that you will meet again in 10 years. I really love this song!! I decided to review it, because it's so awesome. *yeayy*
It was released back in 2009, when AKB48 still wasn't really THAT succesfull and the fans were still complaining about Jurina suddenly appearing everywhere like a ninja. In this single there was also another SKE48 girl for the first time: Matsui Rena (wMatsui :3 ). Oh and it's the last single with Oshima Mai :( How fitting, that her last song was a graduation song.. somehow..
But now onto the video:
In the beginning we see Acchan reading a letter.
Yeay for Acchan in all her boring glory (okay, I actually miss her, but she's still boring.. I DO have to watch her horror movie though.. It looks awesome).
As we can see here, this is in 2019, so it's actually 10 years after the song release. There we have our title..
Meeting again after 10 years. How come they didn't change anything to look older?
They talk about what they did in the past and wonder if some other classmates will show up..
Ah, and here we have Yuko, risking her life to be with Acchan.. No not really, but doesn't that look dangerous to you too?? And she's PREGNANT! Wow.. That actually makes her look older..
Aaah, thank you Jpopsuki.tv for the subs.. :D
It's actually pretty sad what ''she'', the unknown friend of Acchan, wrote..
And here the song begins. It's really upbeat. We just had a sad letter and now this funny song begins.
Erepyon! OMG she was still in the group back then!
They are in a school bus and Acchan is laughing her ass off (when she smiles, she doesn't look boring at all..)
Creepy TakaMina.. Creeepy (and I spot Rena on the left.. yeay)
Jurinaaaa!! Still a baby.. LOL
The song was released 4 days before her birthday, so she was still 11 years old.. :o
Yuko laughing.. Everybody is laughing, isn't that nice?
Oh and Mariko-sama with long hair!! Long hair, look at it, you won't see it anymore now!!
Jurina in all her kid-like glory.. Seriously kiiid..
The girls are really creative..
A bow for Nyan Nyan? Mii-chan approves.. Acchan is like: Stop it! That's ridiculous!
Little Miichan...
I hate scandals!!!
More creativity..
Bow down to the good singers of AKB48!
MaiMai showing it all in her last video.. tz tz tz
The dance.. They dance the Kanji for 10: 十
Yuko derp..
Rena creepy smile at the right.. YOU SEE IT TOO! (the beginning of Gekikara!)
Creepy smile.. It's creepy Mayuyu..
Harunyan.. and there's Rena in the background again^^
Juriii.. :3
STop taking all the screen time..
Hihi, Minami is SO into it, it's really funny.
Tiger tooth Tomochin. She also looks still the same^^
Mai: Help me!
Tomochin: I'm faboulous bitches..
Jurina: WTH?
Mai!! They should have included her a bit more.. It's her last song :(
Jurina is still owning this video.. *sigh*
Mayu & Erena: We haz pens!!
More Mai..
Jurinaa.. again.. LOL
Mayuyu & Jurina -> paired up forever
Mayu: Because we're both awesome!
Mariko: Go girls!
Kitarie: Kawaii desu ne~?
Ooooh, there's Mochi!! I spotted Mochi, yes.. She should be in more songs!!
Mariko-samas awesomeness level..
Oh and Rena derp^^
Sorry for not taking that much screen shots of Acchan.. well, actually I'm not sorry.. :D
Finally! Sae!! She's rocking the school bus.
Yuko has also fun..
Just stop being perfect, okay?
Everyone tickles Acchan!!
Sae is still rocking.. Isn't she a bit high?
Sae: I'm soo tired.
Acchan: *rolls eyes* You overdid it again!
Now it's Mariko-samas turn to ROCK!
Let's fly!
I really love this part where they are all like:
Kyou to iu hi wo wasure WAAAAA shinaii! (I won't forget this day)
Acchan rocking the center position.
Why don't you stop being creepy in this video, Minami?
Oh, now the sad scenes begin.
Sae: What will happen in the future?
Mariko: How can I troll everyone? Perhaps by staying in AKB48 until I'm like 40?
They are all sad and tired. Well Tomochin is more like: WTF is this shit? I want to have fun again!
(KojiYuu for the win!)
They all leave the bus after another..
Sae and Erepyon..
Miichan and Tomomi..
Only AtsuMina is left now (being paired forever too..)
See that look in Minamis eyes?
Acchan: Minami? Why did you leave me??
So the letter was from Takamina.. Oh, that's sad..
''Let's meet again in 10 years''
Emotions... :'(
Now we're back in the future and Yuko and Acchan wonder if Takamina will appear..
Tomochin, Harunyan and Mayuyu saw another person they know..
... it's Takamina. Yeay, happy End!
Acchan: Did you think of a name for the Baby?
Yuko: If it's a girl.. Sakura.
Acchan: Eh?
Yuko: Yeah...
Aw, the end is cute. The whole video is cute. It's funny and cute but at the same time, there is a sad side story about graduations.. This fits the lyrics really good. Here are just a few lines:
''There comes a time for everyone to take off and we all walk alone''
''I won't forget you''
''Let's meet again in 10 years''
''Shine more than you do now''
''Graduation is a new start, an enternal road''
This shows that you have to go on after graduation. You will change, but you won't forget your old friends.. This is a really beautiful song because of these lyrics but also a fun song and a sad song. So many things are in this song and it's really one of their best Sakura songs to date!!
And back to the PV, I just love how simple it is. There are really beautiful shots but most of the time it's just a fun video. And I have to talk about the members.. Acchan dominated of course.. Jurina, Yuko, Haruna, Tomochin and Mayuyu had bigger roles too, but I really loved these few moments where we could also see more background members like Rena, Kitarie, Mochi and Sae. (I actually didn't see Myao or Reina.. :T )
All in all, this is fun spring graduation song, that gives you hope for your future. With this, I will now end this post. Let's search for some eggs, nee~? (=^-^=)
Happy Easter, Happy Sunday.. :)
Noooo.. not this one..
It's catchy and annoying at the same time.. aargh
