C-ute - Aitai Aitai Aitai na PV

It's on the official C-ute Youtube channel now!

So I'll get this out of the way first: the dance is wefgvfbrfwgfhbdv HOT

Like, really.

Dear lord, C-ute. Well anyway, onto the PV review.

Starting with the scenery first, it's nice that they didn't stay indoors and actually went outside to film parts.

And the indoor locations weren't bad either. Definitely different from the random bland buildings they usually use.

The dance portion was filmed in one of the above mentioned bland buildings but that doesn't really matter since, well, it's just dancing and you don't really need a fancy background for that.

The close-up shots are nice, mainly because the girls look nice (Chisato's hair is truly lovely here).

And to mix things up, there were occasional split screen close-up shots too.

Besides the hotness of it, the dance is original and I like it a lot.

It's really entertaining to watch and I'll definitely be looking forward to the dance shot version!

I also really like how, in the PV, the girls portray the melancholic feeling that the song implies.

And the song itself is really, really good too.

It just has an epic feeling to it, that seems to just build and build as the song goes along. It reminds me of Resonant Blue in that regard.

The only thing missing is a climax, though I guess Airi's "Ah~" will have to do.

And the winner for best moment in the PV goes to Nakky groping Maimi's chest.

Groping is always welcome in PVs.

And now for some bonus gifs that I made, starting with Maimi's kick:

Airi winku

and Chisa winku

after that is a short comment by C-ute,

and finally, we get to see more of the dance and you'll understand why it's being described as sexy.

Holy crap.

[TPF] HelloPro! TIME Episode 40

Another one~

The main focus of this episode is an unexpected Miya/Maasa/Chisa date (you'll see why it's unexpected by watching).

They go to visit the newly finished Tokyo Skytree,

and eat at a restaurant Miyabi has wanted to go to for a while.

It's probably just me but I swear this episode has quite a bit of hilarious sexual innuendo throughout

lol, moving along, the other third of this episode follows S/mileage's antics behind the scenes of the Choto Mate Kudasai PV making.

Berikyuu Island Suzuki Airi Solo Angle

Airi's solo angle version of the Berikyuu Island concert (thanks to Shurlik for the iso!).

As usual, Airi is too cute for words.

And there are lots of random funny,

and awesome moments.

Because it's Airi, I went a little crazy with some settings again, which resulted in this rip looking a lot better than the ISO, yay.

[TPF] HelloPro! TIME Episode 39

Another HPT episode down!

Episode 39 mainly focuses on Aika and the 9th and 10th generation members attempting to make Pyoko Pyoko themed sushi rolls since Pyoko Pyoko Ultra was soon to be released at that time.

To make sure things were done properly, an expert was brought in and she quickly showed off her sushi making skills.

After being split into two teams and divvying the workload, they competed to make the best sushi roll possible.

The other part of the episode follows Yurina's goal of making Chinami less sleepy.

To accomplish that, the two travel to a massage parlor to get a foot massage,

and a special bonus for Chinami.
