Album NMB48 3rd [Namba Ai ～Ima, Omou Koto～] (2017/08/02)

Masaka Singapore Full PV

if the video does not show watch the video here

 

only 4 new songs wtf??? Not even team songs? That's crazy for a new album. And honestly the title song is not that good. Super underwhelming for a bikini single tbh. NMB usually does well in that department.

The MV is nice tho. It's cute and typical. I like how they continued the "story" about the golden mic, but like who cares? lol. It's not like a surprise Miru got it lol.

Edit: just saw the covers...also ew lol.

 

Love the continuation from the Boku Igai ni Dareka MV but the song is so boring hopefully itll grow on me..

 

wow Miru solo song and solo cover
Great they invested on Miru so much

 

I usually like NMBs songs. But this one is just meh. I don't mind the MV cuz bikinis.

 

basically this album is like subtly hinting that mirurun is gonna be the ace once sayanee leaves haha. concept reminded me abit of kibou refrain (that mike thingys)

ok edit:
I finally did some rough translation and finally got this lyrics through with some help of dictionaries and google translate +my own edit.


The blueness of the sky,
Is a blue I have never seen.
This is because of the sunlight strength,
No, (it is because) the air is different in the first place.

I have also started (exploring).
What a beautiful city (it is).
(But) As soon as I walk, I get all sweaty.
I think it is from the heat of a foreign passion

When you sent me the LINE (message),
I just wanted to be alone.
Why did you say suddenly selfish things?
I want to know what made you send that.

No way it is Singapore.
Until now, I have followed him to this place.
No way it is Singapore.
I did not give up.
Where is the happy ending?

I am sure to have tried (ways).
What kind of fate is made to dance?
Look at that special feature of a magazine,
Now I understand why you chose here.

What do I want to do with you after seeing you?
I did not think about anything.
I picked up my passport and hopped onto
(an) Unexpected aeroplane.

Sorry Singapore.
It's not calm.
I cannot force myself to stay.
Sorry Singapore.
Although I love you,
I cannot wait to see the surprise you have prepared.

At the hotel I stay and every small move I make,
I (was) searching for you.

This is Singapore.
Even if I can not see you,
I am already satisfied for some reason.

No way it is Singapore.
I followed him to this place.
No way it is Singapore.
I did not give up.
Happy end.
Happy end.
Here is where I discovered reality.

 

Solo album cover for Mirurun, not Sayanee? What is this witchcraft? Is Sayanee graduating soon? Like she's been letting other girls to be the front of the group lately... Concert without her. Cover without her... not participating in SSK.

 

So.... They are actually the burglars in Kibouteki Refrain?

On a serious note, FOUR freaking new songs is terrible. In AKB/other sister group, four is the amount of new songs for each type, but in here it's for the whole album. Not even new team songs? Last album, they gave each team new song AND MV for each one.

 

lol the storyline is soooooooo cheesy hahaha

The song is meh and the mv is meh too

And Sayanee graduation incoming real soon. They cannot give us the hint more obvious than this. And guess who the successor.

 

I must be crazy because I think the covers are quite nice...better than their two latest singles, at least.
And the mv is quite predictable, but nice, nevertheless...because of Miru
Oh gosh, Rei looks a lot like Keicchi

 

ok guys i updated my post. i inserted my own edition of the lyrics! do let me know if it is wrong some where.

I still dont know how to translate the masaka singapore part cause it just doesnt make sense to me?

 

i hope they release the dance version of this mv

 

I also think the covers are nice.
Btw, what about the bonuses ? Also, will we get only one PV ?

 

At least NMB have a successor.
( AKB --- the successor is = *let's rely on sister groups )

Personally I love this, I've never bought a NMB single before. But I think I might get this album. That Miru solo cover

 

Omg why . I actually like this, but they apparently decided to use the crappiest encode they had, and here i was happy of a full release .

 

It's great that to see NMB's youngsters got pretty solid and promising..

 

That Akarin screentime omg! I love the MV everyone looks beautiful even Momoka.
This MV is the one you should show someone to become a fan

 

only 4 new songs?wtf
also the covers are terrible

Spoiler

OP can you change the title of the thread from 3nd to 3rd

 

Fun video and fun song, not sure I see a problem with the covers though. It's just a shame the overall package is so awful. Hardly any new songs (while Keyaki gets 16 for theirs?) and weak DVD extras makes this difficult to justify, especially compared to the first two albums. Really disappointed with what we're being presented.

 

Miru's first solo center and yet they still managed to make the PV all about Sayanee... I dunno... I'm getting major graduation vibes from this. I feel like Sayanee has one and a half feet out the door and I kinda want her to go. As much as I love her, management just can't seem to help themselves from using her face/name all over everything NMB related. Maybe after she leaves we'll get some quality content. Like an album cover that doesn't scream "graphic design is my passion" or a song that doesn't sound like they cut and pasted bits and pieces of other better songs together to make it. Or maybe some inspired choreography and a more original PV that isn't just a continuation of an earlier thought with bikinis and cat burglars dressed in nekomimi headbands tossed into the mix for God only knows what reason... Seriously... Masaka Singapore is such a disappointment. Is it any wonder the 46 groups wipe the floor with the 48 girls these days? No one is even trying to make these groups more interesting... Justice for what this album coulda/shoulda/woulda been. Justice for Mirurun's first solo center. Justice for NMB's future.

EDIT: Looking at the other comments and suddenly very unsure of my own taste... Why can't I see what everyone else apparently can see in this release?
