    The MV reminded me of something Mizuki said in a video she did while promoting Eizouken. Whenever she enters a hotel room alone, she waves hello at the four corners of the ceiling, in case there’s a hidden camera. (Ume replied that’s crazy. Asuka said she knows the feeling, although she doesn’t do it.) Here’s an excerpt from Mizuki’s latest blog about the MV:
    It’s a fresh and novel music video
    with back-and-forth between an idol and a normal girl, but
    I also often operate
    without knowing whether I’m “working” or “off”
    so this view of the world isn’t strange to me

    Even when I’m not at a workplace
    I’m writing mobame or preparing for jobs
    Watching programs I’m appearing in
    Checking the reactions
    It feels like I’m always working

    It’s the feeling that, even on my days off
    I’m always living in that “idol” space?
    It’s a very unique profession where
    even ordinary life isn’t ordinary life, but
    I’m enjoying it very much ⸜( ॑꒳ ॑ )⸝
    I’ve heard that while most members’ mobame texts are either frequent or long, Mizuki’s texts are both. In other words, she puts in lots of time and thought throughout the day.
    A Japanese comment on Youtube suggested that when the MV shows the song title, the Boku and reversed kanji Boku are symbolizing that I (real self) will like Me (idol self, i.e. my other self).

    I don't share the same enthusiasm like many fans here. Not sure why people like the single so much. Nothing revolutionary to me and too safe for my liking. I am comparing with several singles in the past, not coming from r246 so I guess that I expected too much...

    As for me, I like it exactly because of the thing you criticize. I like to listen to Nogizaka for their soothing sound, such as Sayonara no Imi (which is uncomparable and will never be topped anyway), Kaerimichi or Synchronicity. This one fits in perfectly, it's Nogizaka's sound and after R246 and Shiawase no Hogoshoku, I feel like I already missed that sound. So I'm happy that they went back to basics and it fits Mizuki well, too <3
    (I also love their strong songs, like Inochi wa utsukushii or Seifuku no Mannequin, it's just that I don't need them to do that in every single.)

    For the MV, I like the idea, even though I had wished for something else, tbh. It's just that a lot of artys stuff about self-love would have been possible here and it would have fitted the song's theme more than what is now the actual story. But the idea is still great and there is a very nice close-up of Rei in the end, so I'm happy!

    Pro tips : dont compare present Nogi with past Nogi unless you're ready to be disappointed.

    I actually feel this single is like a mixture of Nandome no Aozoraka and Synchronicity, both are my top Nogi singles. Nandome is the song that got me into Nogi. So yeah, I agree wholeheartedly with wuerfel, this is like back to basics, it reminds me of the sound that made me like this group in the first place.

    It really feels like Endo is backup in this song.
    Only heard her voice one time in the bridge

    Endo has a part at the 2nd verse, the bridge and I think the last chorus too.

    The thing that I don't like about the mix is that even though the verses supposedly sung by either Momoko or Endo in foreground, but they mixed another vocal in the background, so you can't hear their solo voice clearly.

    2nd verse? I'm still trying to spot her voice but Momo's accent really overpowers. The Bridge i can hear.

    It's been a while since the last time they holding guns in MV.

    Anybody noticed Momoko in this MV because I barely noticed her.

    I like this MV a lot better than the Aside but so many members you barely see or not at all first time you watch it.

    I like this MV. Getting that Sailor-fuku to Kikanju vibe from Rentan and Ayame. I wonder if they used virtual screen for Shibuya Kosaten. Oh and Momoko looks pretty.

    Edit: It appears to be green screen as seen in credits. They built this open set in Tochigi Prefecture.

    At 3:34. There's probably other parts where I did not notice.
