General Information

Alternative CD Jackets

Oogoe Diamond is AKB48's 10th major single, 12th overall, and the 1st released under King Records. Oogoe Diamond was the first single to feature SKE48's Matsui Jurina, who was Center of this single.

The single's tagline is 「大声で叫べば、ダイヤモンドになる」 ("Oogoe de Sakebeba, Diamond ni naru" / "If you scream aloud, it will turn into a Diamond").

The first press of the regular edition included an alternative member cover from any of the other 19 senbatsu members. As it was the first King Records single, it was also the one to introduce the Theater Editions and Handshaking Event Tickets included with the CD. This is the first and only time the Theater Edition was released as a CD+DVD instead of CD Only.

Oogoe Diamond was the ending theme for TV show "Mendol ~ikemen idol~" and the KBS Variety show "AKKO ni Omakase!".

Oogoe Diamond is also a stage song for AKB48 Team A's 5th stage Renai Kinshi Jourei and SKE48 Team S's 1st stage PARTY ga Hajimaru yo.
