Screw the parents, we aren't reshooting an entire MV from scratch?

lol this basically. They probably only re-did parts of it. I think this was actually filmed ages ago.

Maybe someday in the far off future the original video will be leaked and we will all rejoice.

Someone make sure that the original clip of her survives. It will be our only proof for future references. Not to mention it will make an in interesting trivia.

Well, I've officially saved the Gif to my computer, there is now proof that Aina was there. No matter how much UFP will deny it.

To be honest, I was looking at the orange stick-looking thing to the left of Karin and didn't notice other chick until people mentioned it.
 
Is that the only time she was in the PV? I don't blame whoever missed her when he/she was editing the footage, but I'm more surprised that fans would catch it. I guess H!P is getting to be more mainstream, 'cause I feel like most of us are too lazy to have bothered, much less caught it that quickly.

I really like this song. Cool, old-school H!P vibe. Feels like T&C a little bit.

Oooh, so it was Japanese fans? I don't know why I was thinking English-speaking people. My bad.

Truth be told, I like these slight differences better than the originals.  Though Samidare could have used more of that piano action during the dance break.  
 
Also, where are those super fans, I want the I FANCY shirt in Samidare...

Nah. Fancy clothes, fancy background. Never mind, I still prefer the simplicity of the original. I am not striked by any part in the memorial edits. The originals leave more impressions on me.

Sayuke looked like she was in pain during the opening of Samidare when they were doing that star move with the hands. Like, literally I thought she was going to keel over, take a dump or give birth. If she did either of those three things, I probably wouldn't have been surprised.

I personally really like the memorial edits.  I think they're remixed in a fun way and you can hear improvement in the girls voices.  I loved J=J since the first time I heard "Watashi" but for some reason Aina's departure just didn't really affect me and these edits don't like make me sad or anything... maybe I just wasn't as invested in the girls on a personal level as much.  I think they're going in a great, refreshing direction... "Romance no tochuu" is cool.   :sideways:

The part in "Watashi ga Iu Mae ni Dakishimenakya ne" where the girls cry makes me sad. 
The gloves that they're wearing in "Samidare Bijo ga Samidareru" look orange in some shots, but on closer inspection they are red.

I'm sorry but these edits are just awful.
 
The only good thing I can say about them is Sayuki looks pretty cute in them and at least she got to be center during the dance breaks in "watashi iu mae ni Dakishimenakya ne".

Now that Aina is gone, I really can't pick between Akari and Tomoko for my favorite member.

I hope those are made well enough that if someone actually uses them, the picture won't warp.


Then again, I may be the only person who'd actually use them, now that I think about it.

Well, they clearly didn't get C-ute's cover designer. Also, what material are these coasters actually made of?

The entire juice/fruit motif is kind of really lame.

Now I know why I found something was lacking when I watched "Watashi ga...". It is not just about Aina: Tomoko lost her line to Karin at <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEK4N5qatIk#">2:24</a> in the original MV (and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEK4N5qatIk#">2:39</a> in the memorial edit). She sang that lines with such maturity I don't see why Karin has to sing it.

This group has lost all it's charm for me.
The thing I liked about them was they were a throwback to old H!P but with these edits...bleh.

The coasters from HMV, TSUTAYA & Yamano Music don't look to bad but the rest of them aren't that easy on the eyes. Are we getting posters with this sinlge too? :)
 
I'm actually very surprised that there's an orange in the MV :) H!P and UFP don't usually go out of their way to give a slight nod to fans so that was kind of nice :) Unlike a lot of people here I wasn't that upset when Aino left. I never really paid attention to the H!P Eggs so I didn't have an emotional attachment to any of the members but despite that it's still sad that she left

There are no posters and the ghost of Aina is gone so there is no longer anything in any of the MVs to show that Aina was ever there. I think I just burst all your bubbles. :(

Guys, not gonna lie, I think the orange in the video is actually supposed to be yellow.  If you look in the yellow background shots it's kind of like a gradiant and the edges are a darker yellow.  I think if they were going to throw orange in there as a nod to Aina it wouldn't be quite like this.
 
And haru, that's what I liked about them too.  BUT since Romance no Tochuu itself still sounds like old school to me, I'm just going to ignore the edits and continue to like them.
 
I was going to actually pre-order from CDJapan but after hearing the edits I'd rather just buy the main single for $1.29 on itunes...

I agree with this.
 
Just because they redid the first two (crappily), it doesn't mean that the rest of J=J's discography is going to be like that. If that was the case, Romance no Tochuu would've sounded the same.

That's OK :) This is H!P we're talking about, we all should be used to disappointment every now and again :P
 
Am I the only one who likes the edits? :)
