Single Nogizaka46 21st [Jikochuu de Ikou!] (2018/08/08)

OMG one of my favorite CD covers. Although this is new style, usually their covers are candid or shot outside but still nice~

The song also reminds me of AKB48 song. Maybe Iiwake Maybe or Suzu Nanchara (the long title) haha I love it though because old AKB songs are my favorite. And please more solo lines with the centers~

 

I think I heard #SukiNanda tone, too I swear lmao.

 

AH YES! That too! xD

 

I smell another nogi/akb kennin

 

oh covers are out. *signature updated*

type C were my best

 

the covers are nice as usual for summer singles

 

Looks like Zukkii is trying to save Miona from dropping from Senbatsu and Rentan is pretending to be shocked.

Edit: first stop might be from front row Jyuuyon Fukujin then...Senbatsu

 

Fair point. A live performance can add a certain energy that is missing from the studio version. I remember clearly how I didn't care about Hoka No Hoshi Kara until I saw it performed live. It finally clicked, and now I also like the studio version.

My main issue with the performance of the new song is the fact that it's the short version. A song is written with a certain idea and arranged as such. Removing parts from that arrangement is almost never an improvement.

Nice covers overall. I like type C and the regular cover the most. The yellow and orange colors make it stand out compared to the other three.

 

Seriously though, the fukujin term has lost it's weight...

 

the covers are so vibrant and colorful. i'm digging it. kinda reminds me of perfume earlier works. song is pretty idol-ish and i like this sound so hopefully it will grow on me.

 

Yup, with constant change of number for fukujin, it doesn't have any value now, but if I were to choose true fukujin of Nogi, imo, it would be Nanase, Maiyan, Asuka, Ikuta, and Nanami, those are Nogi's true Kami or Fukujin

I would add Reika and Wakatsuki

 

Nanamin has been gone for a while. Maybe Fukujin emeritus but not current.

 

can we talk about how Nanase is a bad lipsync maker? she doesn't even open her mouth at the performance

 

choose wisely ,

more prestige = less senbatsu = screwd fandoms

i had said before tho , i used to think maybe there's only 5 members who would be the perma senbatsu if we back to 16~18 senbatsu lineup. and it means there was 16++ girls were not "safe" .

* in the girls perception , well sure they will be very disappointed since they was a very good seller in HS and i'm sure it can disharmony the group atmosphere itself on the backstage. also how the senpais think if they being dropped from senbatsu ? its like someone said in front of them " just graduates , we dont need you more rn "

* Fans wise , if we had only 5 perma senbatsu , or at least the 7 from jyuu fukujin on 16~18 formation will be the perma-senbatsu girls then how about the rest girl fandoms ? count our recently senbatsu was 21 , if we only had 5~7 perma senbatsu it means there will be 14~16 girls who can be swapped out anytime in the near futures. and we know how very popular them among the fans , and dont forget there's still very popular girl which hadn't been selected on senbatsu like ranran , ririan or kubo which had been on hiatus rn. at least there's 20++ girl with a very decent HS result atm , and subbing-in / subbing-out this girl commonly will pissed their fans , especially i cant imagine how if they subbed some girls which already being perma senbatsu for a very long time tho. i used to believe DD in nogi was a thing , well at least its so many times better than in mostly of 48G. but subbing out some very popular girl can trigger someone who kami-oshi'ed that girl to hate her replacements / group. take an example here , kazumin was being fukujin since taiyou knock which means it was 3 years ago , she's on the 3rd row for the latest 2 singles , then mgmt drop her from senbatsu at 22 or 23 single. heck even i may be really pissed if its happen , not surprise if someone who had kazumin as his/her kami oshi will turn around to hate any girls which replaced her/still stay at senbatsu. no offense to any kazumin fans tho , i'd use her as example because she's my favorite beside naachan and zukki who still remain at senbatsu.

i always like the less senbatsu type tho , i had mention it many times before in lot of threads also. but considering all the risks may happen if they decide to reduce the senbatsu honestly even myself cant decide which was the best option to take.

remember , DD was a thing , but kami-oshii came first , treating bad someone's kami-oshi , its very common that he/she/they will turn back and bring lot of hatred into certain girls , or in the worst .. on the group itself.

=========================================

just want to reminding everyone , we're absolutely #1 idol group in japan rn , even with a very little screentime for some girls , or maybe not selected as senbatsu , almost all of our girls were doing great in the industry , everyone got a job , that's the good facts rn. i know someone may be disappointed as their girls had a less screentime / not being selected as senbatsu , but as long the girls still got the job i think we can consider there was still a good thing at least. i know the feeling tho , i even speak how i'm very disappointed when know that ranze being left out from senbatsu (again)

 

Wasn't it mentioned in Nogidoko? It's one of Nanase's complex about herself, her mouth always looks shut even when she talks.

 

Not exactly. Her complex is that her upper lip doesn't move, not that her mouth is shut.

 

I have liked Jikochuu de Ikou! from the first time I heard it but right now, it's growing insanely fast in me up to the point that I just sing it unconsciously.
The LSS factor of this song is just too strong.
I'm hoping that this would be the legendary Nogi song that "people would sing anywhere" just like AKB's Fortune Cookie and Keya's SaiMajo.
