世界で一番孤独なLover [Saito Asuka Center Ver.]

broderic on May 7, 2020

Maiyan would’ve graduated today. Instead, because of the rona, she’s still a member of Nogizaka46. I don’t know. I’m conflicted. On one hand, I’m happy to see her still part of the group. On the other hand, I really want to see the next phase of Nogizaka46 without the Absolute Ace. On the third hand, it has got to be very emotional for her, so I’ll continue to support her for forever.

Today’s version though has Saito Asuka in charge. It’s from their 2016 National Summer Tour. I think this one is a favorite. At least until we get further along… Yeah, also, Asuka’s in charge now.

This is about where I come in as a Nogizaka fan, around the summer of 2015. This is again their summer tour. I am hoping they will have it again this year, but most likely not. It makes me sad. Like Maiyan leaving and not getting a true graduation concert. Well she sort of postponed her graduation concert which would’ve taken place in Tokyo Dome from today, tomorrow, and Thursday. Instead we get to reminisce through today’s version. Enjoy.

世界で一番 孤独なLover [MV Short Ver.]

Short version of the music video from the official Nogizaka46 YouTube channel. They usually post the regular version in the weeks leading up to a single’s release, but switch it out for the short version soon after. I guess it induces you to buy the discs.

Easy Peasy

Here you go. Have this earworm. You don’t know what’s being said, but it will be in your head all day.

You’re welcome.

「I see…」

I either need to write more blog posts or stop blogging about that damn virus. I think I’ll break up the horror with some lightness.

From their 25th Single, it’s the 4th Gen’s song, “I see…” It’s getting closer to a 3rd Gen song, but not quite. If it was performed by 3rd Gen, I would put it just outside the top 5. They have 7 including one on this single. I guess I’m saying that 4th Gen is playing catch up, and they’re finally seeing the backs of their senpai.

1917

1917 is not just a year, but a movie that competed for Best Picture at the 2020 Oscars… It didn’t win.

But that shouldn’t stop you from watching this film. It’s not the best and it does have some problems, like the fact that it is trying to be one continuous take which is an artifice that is distracting, but it is rather entertaining.

3 of 5 stars.
