The fresh Team 8 with Seifuku no Hane

Today I will talk about Team 8's song ''Seifuku no hane'' that is included in the Type D of AKB48's single Kibouteki Refrain.

This is Team 8's second original song and they are still the new kids on the block. Over the last few months I learned a bit more about them, but I'm still not familiar with most of them. Everyone knows Ikumin, but there are also some other awesome girls in this team.
Seifuku no Hane is a rather typical cute Idol song, though I would say it's kind of slower. I definetely like the sound of it, because it is so melodic and a bit melancholic. I don't know how to describe it, but it does have a Sakura-song touch to it.. ^^ It's still energetic, so it really fits the fresh Team a lot.
Since Team 8 is the only team that has their video included in the single, I can now take a look at it. I will try to get all the names correct.^^'
And just a hint before that: the video is sponsored by Toyota.

We get an introduction to of the artist and the song,

And this dear little Sakaguchi Nagisa, 14 years old. (One of the more prominent members as of lately, she co-centered Ima, Happy)

And here we can see that she is from the prefecture Hokkaido.

Damn, I want to have that, too! And she just got a message for a meeting in Tokyo.

Ashita no gogo?
Wow, I can understand so much. *-*

That's the Shizuoka prefecture.

And that's Yokomichi Yuri (14 years old), the girl from that prefecture. she also got the same message as Nagisa.

Here we have Osaka.

And the Osaka girl Nagano Serika (13 years old), who also gets the message.
OMG, I've been there, too. *-*

This is Aomori.

And Yokoyama Yui the second, who's 13 years old. (I think it's pretty funny to have a second Yokoyama Yui XD)

JAPAN!!

Everyone is holding placards with their names and their prefectures.
What's pretty interesting is that they are ordered from north to south. The different regions also have different backgrounds. That makes the whole thing a lot easier. x'D

Blue: Hokkaido & Tohoku
Violet etc: Kanto
Blue & green: Chubu
Brown: Kansai
Green & Brown: Chugoku and Shikoku.
Orange: Kyushu

Of course, the first close-up is: Nakano Ikumi from Ottori. (14 years old) xD
She does look pretty cute, no?

So, this is Kuranoo Narumi from Kumamoto. (14 years old)
She looks cute, but I've never seen her before..

Yokoyama Yui again. (I guess it's enough to write the prefectures and stuff once xD)

Probably my favourite member for now: Yamada Ikumi from Hyogo. (15 years old)

Serika again.

Most of the girls a bit more up close.

Just to show of the center a bit more. xD

Here we have Tani Yuri from Hiroshima. (15 years old)

Nagisa is running through the rain.

And here she is with a big white tiger. Interestingly we are able to see how far it is to Tokyo. :D

Nanami: Where am I?

Hattori Yuna from Gifu (13 years old).

Hashimoto Haruna from Toyama (14 years old). I think it's really to see a Megane-chan in the group!

The beautiful landscape of Japan.

Kondo Moeri from Nagano (17 years old).

Hitomi being all cute with a teddy bear. *-*

Hitomi Kotone from Okayama (13 years old). What's interesting about her, is that she's wearing braces. :D Adding to that, her family name is Hitomi and I've always only seen that as a surname.^^

Fujimura Natsuki from Aichi (17 years old).

Oda Erina from Kanagawa (17 years old)

So, she is also entering the a car?

Ooooh, here they are.

Oh, Aomori. so this is Yokoyama Yui's car?

They are all going out of the car now. Wait, so the Tokyo girl only went in there for a few seconds? :'D

Now this looks really cool!!

Narumi and Nanami are happy to be together.

Oh, Nao and Kurena are hugging! :3

Seems like the members have lots of fun, now that they all met each other.

Cooooool *-*

Beautiful Riona. :3

All the cuties.. *-*

It's sooo cool how they are forming an 8 with their dance.

Ikumin is everywhere.. o.o

Bye, bye~

SO COOL!!!

And some credits.

Wow, this is such a nice introduction PV for Team 8! I have to admit, it was a bit hard to get the right names to the right faces, but I hope I managed to do it. (Feel free to correct me if I didn't)
Team 8 has a lot of cute little girls, and I was shocked how many of them were born after 2000. o.O
But there are a few that I like and I think everyone looked pretty nice (in contrast to their first promo pictures.. ugh) It was very interesting to see all the members coming to Tokyo with their Toyota cars. Oh right, this was totally a Toyota advertisement. But what did you expect?? xD Still, I think it was a very nice idea to connect the cars with the girls like this. Though I don't see why the Tokyo girl ran into a car just to go out again seconds after.. :'D

All in all, this is such a nice start for Team 8!!
I'm looking forward to the 47 suteki na machi he video. *-*

PS: By the way, I finally finished the Kibouteki Refrain reviews!! :D
I can't motivate myself to review Kaze no Rasen, so yeah, I'm done!
