    After watching the MTV performance, I feel a lot better about 2nd gen than I did last year. Choreography is not center focused in their newest song so it's close to 1st gen's style which I think better displays the members individual skills. I really like 1st gen's Kyoko/Kato/Mirei dynamic and I want to see something like that in 2nd. That said I'd also like them to move away from the 1st/2nd gen unit division this year. They have to include Hinano now anyway.

    Three great broadcasts yesterday:

    1.Hinatazaka46 All-Night Nippon GOLD radio show 190405. A 5ch post gives it 100 points and calls it the greatest broadcast in idol history. People say they laughed and cried.

    Really great TikTok from the unlikely but wonderful combo of Miipan and Hiyo-tan. Hiyo-tan looked absolutely great in the middle part, but she must have done something wrong for Miipan to turn and look at her, causing her to crack up. And then Mii-pan slapped her on the behind, lol. What a Happy Aura!

    I have always disliked the fairly strict 1gen-2gen split. It's breaking down a bit now, as members work with and become friends with members from the other gen. But I'm a Westerner, and I feel I haven't completely appreciated the comfort that these distinctions may bring to people in Japan: responsibility for the elder, support for the younger. Or at least that's the sense I'm getting sometimes now. I'm still wanting an all-for-one-and-one-for-all atmosphere, but at least now I get the feeling a bit better, I think. I'm not saying you don't. You probably understand these things better than I do. It's just something I've been thinking. Anyway, with my oshi being a 1gen, I'm a bit disturbed to see the 2gens appropriating Nano-chan to themselves. She belongs to everybody, lol.

    Kinda random, but I was just listening to Hashiridasu Shunkan and when Ima ni Mite Iro came on I got hit by a burst of emotion. That song perfectly captured the struggles they faced as Hiragana Keyaki.

    But look at them now. "Zamaamiro!" They can say that with pride. Hinatazaka46, topping the charts with their debut single! Modeling, magazines, TV commercials and ad partnerships--they're everywhere! What colour can they see now? Nothing less than a beautiful, sparkling sky blue.

    Really, they were great on Utacon. On this show for the general audience and older people, they looked totally at home. I would think the audience was impressed and felt warm feelings toward them.

    First, a group acts as dancers for singer Mikawa Kenichi 美川憲一. Then another group of members backs up enka star Ishikawa Yukino 市川由紀乃. Katoshi and Kyouko sing well and are named in the screen titles. The camera seems to love Takase Mana, among others. Finally, an interview portion and Kyun, sung live (with one small moment out of tune, but generally dead on). The host said in the interview portion that he had become an Ohisama.

    The only place I see the show so far is on the Chinese site bilibili.

    This is from 23 March, but the hour-long MTV Premium Live was great, with live versions of the songs on the album, plus. It really shows the appeal and power of Hinatazaka. Something every Hinata fan should see and/or have, I think. Here it is from 48&46 Video and from bilibili (@Xiphyas posted the bilibili link before):
    https://48idol.com/video/13591

    Also, the "making of" video for the Seventeen feature on the five under-18 members of Hinatazaka -- Nao, Memi, Hiyori, Miku, Hina, Hinano -- is now on YouTube so we can watch it here and also download it:


    if the video does not show watch the video here

    Actually, I've now found a site that makes it possible to download bilibili videos (which ceased being downloadable at some point): urlgot.com. @Xiphyas posted a link to the bilibili Seventeen video above.

    I often enjoy the comments on bilibili, seeing a bit of the Chinese world also watching Hinata. "The blue sky is bright, my heart is sunny," "Go, Hinatazaka!" and "The blue team is the greatest," for example. Or calling the group Xiaoriri ("Little sun-sun", "Little sunny"). The comments really like the energy of the new Overture...until those "somewhat crude" male voices start, lol.

    Yeah! Finally the two songs that I have been really waiting for, it's excite me to see their live performance since I heard the song preview from Keyaki's 8th single.
    Kimi ni Hanashite Okitai Koto - The actual performance I think far more better than Music Video (Without camera trick like appear/disappearing of course).
    Dakishimete Yaru - Those dance give me goosebump, it's really cool and I personally like it more than tokimeki-sou choreo.

    With that beautiful melody and choreo, this really makes me wonder why they diidn't perform that songs at MTV Premium Live Last Month.

    Many thanks to @Remylittlechef. I've been waiting to see Dakishimete Yaru myself. Love the song and the lyrics. (Translation in my Google Drive, below.)

    I haven't looked up the composer yet but could this song be composed by BugBear? It has that semi-patriotic sound this duo is known for. It might sound different from what you are used to with BugBear but nonetheless it's good in its own way.

    Bingo! Good ear.

    That full concert video from Laguna is another treasure. Good performances -- and I liked both Dakishimete and Mimi ni. I love the backstage stuff, too. Hinatazaka is Hinatazaka -- worrying under control, eager to go on, lots of shrieks and laughter and interest in the audience. I was glad to see the back-slapping custom was still going from Keyaki times. Nao/Konoka, Kumi/Mirei, exchanging tension-reducing back-slaps.

    And Memi with Katoshi was great -- but I wish I could hear better what Katoshi said to her and embarrassed her with. Memi dropped a mic a few weeks ago and dropped it again this time, during Joyful Love, when it caught on her skirt. But she seems to have picked it up quickly and gone on. In fact, she almost caught it, lol. Nice expression from Katoshi when she turned and saw the mic on the ground:
    [​IMG]
    And Hinanonano stopping on the way out to get more time on-camera (putting on her coat) was so her. "Attention for me? Yes, please!" Can you imagine going out in front of a chanting horde of thousands of fans for your first time at an outdoor live? Hardly seemed to faze Nano-chan at all. The whole group seemed to just suck up that attention and gain power. Performers all.
