Re: Momoiro Clover
It really is the perfect collaboration for both groups. Hearing the girls singing "Rock & Roll All Night" while both groups headed to the elevator was really fun.

Re: Momoiro Clover
And it's even better knowing this won't be their only release of the year. I'm hoping that since they have plans for three singles that an album is in the works too.

Yes, this needs to happen. It's been like two years since Fifth Dimension now, let's get moving.

Yeah, and the EbiChu girls already have two albums also and they debuted like two years later. It's time for a third from MomoClo.

Re: Momoiro Clover
That really is awesome. Probably the coolest thing KISS has done in 35 years.

Re: Momoiro Clover
The person who did the animation was the character creator of Kill La Kill, Sushio.
And there's a ton of references in the MV that a user over at momoiroclover.net pointed out. Fair warning, this is really long.
1. The entrances are well known member gimmicks.
Shiori - Curry rice
Akari - Cream puffs
Momoka - frogs
Reni - electricity, combined with the KISS lightning bolt logo
2. Main gate -> Gokurakumon (from 2011 Summer Dive)
3. Momotan the mascot
4. Red and white mountain -> kouhaku? (this one might be a stretch)
5. This scene references Reni's ability to perform astral projection back in 2009
6<b>.</b> Sushio (the Kill La Kill guy) loves to throw in small rabbits in his works
<b>7.</b> Kappareni, from MTV VMAJ 2014 VTR comment
8. The whole MV theme is taken from the tale of Minamoto no Yorimitsu and his four retainers (Shitennoh), from a painting by a great ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi. Giant spider Tsuchigumo in the story parallels KISS' giant spider stage in Monster Tour 2013.
<b>9.</b> Shiori's motif came from Sakata no Kintoki a.k.a Kintaro, who fought a giant carp in his youth. Kintaro displays the kanji for gold (金) in his clothes. also a possible shout out to Shiori's running gag of mentioning their lots of gold in tv show.
<b>10.</b> Reni's motif came from Usui no Sadamitsu, who made his name slaying a giant snake with chained scythes. Reni's famous hatred of roller coaster is hilariously depicted in the snake riding sequences.
<b>11.</b> A-rin's motif came from Watanabe no Tsuna. He is also depicted as a tatefugu wielder in Utagawa Yoshitaki's painting. The writing in A-rin's weapon is "Pichi Pichi" in the animation, and is then changed into "Puni Puni" in the live action. Her summoned beast is oni leader Shuten Douji, their arch enemy in the folktale.
<b>12.</b> Momoka's motif came from Urabe no Suetake, a master of bow in "Shumenosuke Urabe no Suetake" tale. Her weapon references her fear of birds, which is a pun on Tori ga yada (hates birds) to Tori ga ya da (Bird arrow).
<b>13.</b> Kanako is Minamoto no Yorimitsu, but well the only thing they have in common is the 'leader' status. The brush is a reference to Kokuritsu concert logo and the heart insignia in the back is most likely a throwback to the big heart costume of Mirai Bowl.
<b>15.</b> GOUNN sequence, same director

Re: Momoiro Clover
I figured about half of that out on my own. I am glad it was the same director as GOUNN, I thought I was imagining shit.

Re: Momoiro Clover
The MV is really great and I love the fact it's full of references ! The song itself is also cool.
Also, the red mountain reminds me of a Hokusai's paintings, from his serie "100 views of Mt Fuji", but I may be wrong.

Campy <3 !
Re: Momoiro Clover
Considering the word "Ukiyo" is in the title of the song which is where Ukiyo-e paintings get their name, it is almost certainly Hokusai inspired.
BTW I noticed in at least some of the animated parts Ayaka's weapon says puni puni, not pichi pichi. I actually haven't noticed it saying pichi pichi at all but there is so much going on all the time. I actually think it would make more sense if it switched from one to the other though.
/edit OK, it says Pichi Pichi at the very beginning when they are facing away from the camera, so I guess it is supposed to say pichi pichi on one side and puni puni on the other. Not that it even matters. Also this time I think I caught a glimpse of at least Paul Stanley's name in the background in old school Japanese style. I'll have to watch it again to confirm that and see if it has any of the others.
/edit Didn't want to double post, but the single got #4 on the oricon daily today. #3 sold 37,403 copies.

Three releases in four months? Also I have known about this Dragonball thing for at least a week and never thought to post any information in here. I agree, this PV is going to be awesome. Unless it gets the Moon Pride treatment.

Yeah, and if you buy a copy of all three, there's a website you can go to to input the serial numbers, and it'll put you into a raffle for a special concert.
