    Yes it is.

    That's their new seifuku right? Nogi usually have regular seifuku and costume for stage performance.

    I was hoping for something different for the MV, more color maybe.

    The girls are beautiful in white dress.

    We don't have CD cover place in the MV, maybe for another song.

    Me too.:)

    Ok, I kept myself from listening to the radio rip. So, this MV is the first time I'm listening to the full version of this song. And, I love it. Good song, good arrangement, catchy tone, especially the chorus! :1st:

    And the MV is really beautiful. Hadashi no Girls is always killing me! :inlove:

    the mv should be the dance version.. at least have 2-3 more settings.. lol. come on Sony, Nogi makes banks for you.. you can afford more locations... or is this maiyan being busy and can only shoot for a day thing?

    now im kinda hoping the covers could have been taken at the pv's location like keya's futari saison

    To be fair, I was expecting several other scenes apart from just the dance but after a few replays I think this was a correct decision

    The full dance itself actually best reflects the underlying lyrics and the emotions running throughout

    Also really liked the flowing dresses and how they incorporated it

    Comparing this with influencer, I have to admit I found that one a bit more polished overall but still nonetheless great

    I really love the MV. The only problem I have with it is the fact that some of them are not synchronized in the dance scenes, which is really ironic.
    While the song isn't as good as Influencer, the MV is really refreshing and beautiful.

    Ahhh... where to begin.

    • I love Synchronicity. It's in my top 5 Nogi songs. I've had it on repeat for my commute for the last few days. It's such an uplifting song. I don't really know how to explain it, but it's got that feeling of subtly pushing you to "keep going" throughout the day. I can see this song being great for going on a run.
    • I love the simple beat and elegant melodies. It's great how understated the strings and electric guitar are, and they add nice flourishes at the right times.
      • I do think, however, that the song might be hard to nail perfectly live. More than most of their other songs, Synchronicity is very vocally dynamic.
    • I love the MV. It matches the sound perfectly: bright, but understated and elegant. They all look stunning in the white dresses. Really, it's a bit absurd how beautiful this group is, from top to bottom.
    • I like the direction they took the MV in. It's a strong contrast to the recent singles by both Keyakizaka and AKB.
      • Keyaki's Glass wo ware is dark and intense; AKB's Jabaja is colourful and bombastic. Both are chaotic as all hell.
      • I also like that it's a full dance MV. Itsuka Dekiru aside, what Nogizaka vids have become known for are their elaborate sets and movie-style stories. Synchronicity's MV is none of that. All of the storytelling is done through the choreography this time.
    • The choreo itself is beautiful. I like seeing Nogizaka continue in this direction for their singles. This type of dancing really fits Nogizaka's style, and further marks them as distinct from AKB and Keyakizaka.
      • The way they used their dresses in the choreo was really pretty.
      • Ikoma looks so cool during her solo part. And the soft smile she gave at the end of it made me melt. Ah, I'm going to miss her so much.
      • Maiyan had some wonderful expressions throughout. She's a good fit at centre, but then again, she always is, isn't she?
      • Naachan is a fantastic dancer.
      • Asuka and Misa were also standouts for me.
      • I really like the Asuka/Miona pairing. The next-gen pillars are really shining.
      • The 3rd gens carried themselves well. Momoko's smile is so bright...
    • I hope Chima becomes a more consistent senbatsu member. She's quickly becoming one of my favourites.

    Anyone realises in Ikoma’s Wiki page it states “Hopes to become modelling agency producer or a photographer, taking photos of girls who possess natural beauty, and make them wear white one-piece clothing”?

    Maybe that’s what they were trying to achieve in the PV, being her last single and all.

    I was expecting a SayoNoImi/ImaHana/Nando level type of MV but I still liked it, its simplicity is beautiful
    Ikoma-chan's solo part had me a bit teary-eyed , Maiyan's facial expression were impressive
    it's now around 400k views :D keep going , keep going
    it's trending #1

    why do i get a bit emotional when i watch the MV ? :blush:

    not the best quality, but here's the 2nd gen song

    the song has a weird style, kinda reminds me of Gorillaz

    I honestly thought they were going to go with Live Shin's (or Live Kami?) style. :hehe:

    It's weird indeed and I don't even know why I'm enjoying this. Maybe it's because I love Gorillaz. :hehe:

    As usual, Maiyan and Naachan will not go to the handshake events

    The same for Ikoma, because of her graduation I think

    But for Sakurai and Wakatsuki, they used to go to some dates, not this time
