So, I was planning on making a multi-ship video and Chasing Life’s Brenna and Greer was one of them ships but as I was looking for clips in the studio already, I found that these two’s were over an hour long!
That was more than enough for their own video and so this is the result!
Yes, I am aware this show was out like, 8 years ago or something but hey, as my mother always says, better to be late than never! I really loved Brenna and Greer and don’t ask me what the heck happened with Season 2 because I did not even get to quarter way through it!
A season without Greer? No thanks ABC, you can keep it! Anyway, hope you enjoy and wish you a lovely night and day depending on where you are (It’s 1 am here so…)
Looks like I have finally found a worthy successor to #SuperCat! Now please #CW, get your act together! Yes, yes, I know they are setting her up with discount Brainiac but screw that! This is shipping wars and I have picked my side!
Yes! I have been waiting for this movie and frankly I did not think that I would get to see it any time this year but here we are! So, a very big thank you to Amazon for making this possible! And best yet, with Amazon you know there is going to be subtitles and the best in the business you can hope for outside of official DVD/Blu-ray subtitles! So, a toast to you Amazon!
Book-cover impressions I had of BLUE MY MIND was that it would be in lines of those really weird coming of age French mind-bending, BAD-ENDing and depressing types of movies. You know, like Martyrs, Water Lilies, RAW and all that! This movie obviously does have some of the elements in the mentioned movies like the other-worldly/fantastical elements, young leads (coming of age, duh), really moody and girls’ love (the reason we are here of course)!
That being said, there are some things that make you know that yeah, this is no France! Sure it does have some bile-inducing scenes but not on the level of French perfection! Actually, that is the most, if not, the only bad thing about this movie – It is afraid! You dear readers can condense it down to bad editing, well, okay, I think there is some bad editing choices in here too, but there are quite a few scenes that you can feel are going into a certain direction but then they suddenly cut them and on to different scenes! This happened quite a few times it drove me mad to tell the truth!
But these negatives are almost over-shadowed by what I got from the movie overall! I absolutely am in love with Mia and Gianna (Our main girls)! They were so cute together and their development was one that I have not seen before! Also for a change the fantastical elements were not in as euphemism for something but they were actually real! Yeah sure there was the adolescence issue at play with our main lead Mia but it was ‘real’! They were both real, not one being a representation of the other!
And really, the girls that play Mia (Luna Wedler) and Gianna (Zoë Pastelle Holthuizen) are so beautiful that you just have to pause at some scenes just to take their beauty in! Especially Mia! Seriously, I am still having dreams about her eyes! And that beauty I think was needed because of the character she was playing! She needed to be that enchanting! Interestingly, and a great choice, only one female recognised and was allured by her beauty while all other males were instantly enchanted! I have theories about this fact and it plays into how unique Mia and Gianna’s relationship is!
Luna and Zoe were in another movie together before this, but I haven’t watched it yet. It is titled Amateur Teens that came out in 2015. Yeah, good luck finding it without digging up some peculiar results.
So anyway, as the unusual person that I am, we are going to approach the movie in scenes/moments that grabbed my attention, after a brief summary of the overall story! So then, let’s get this thing started… Continue reading →
It’s the only explanation because I still can’t get over the fact that there is an MV out there with this much Yukirin. That there is a single line-up out there that has her spot on centre a few times at the front!
Not even the Kayousai LIVE performance made me get these facts through my thick skull! That just goes to show you how starved we Yukirin fans have been all these years! Well, again like I said, better late than never! We never got a MAYUKI single but I am choosing to believe that AKS so the error of their ways and are looking to avoid repeating that same mistake with Yukirin!
As for the performance, just as I suspected it was not performed in full! Then again the three centers were missing so I guess I forgive them? Speaking of the missing centers (Sakura-tan, Hiichan and Nako), they were replaced by apparently the top three dancers (in what?) in STU48’s Kadowaki Miyuna taking over for Nako, Team 8’s Hijiri taking over for Hitomi and STU48’s Mitsuki for Sakura! Kinda surprised at these replacements. I really need to see those auditions!
Not that I care but I was under the impression that Kanon was considered the best dancer in STU48 and don’t get me started on Team 8! Miyuna is my STU oshii but really? Maybe just a few girls auditioned?! Again, i don’t care and really, these three fit in right fine in the senbatsu!
I of course miss Sakura-tan and I wanted to see my CBS but I don’t know if it was a blessing or what because the relevant parts were not performed so I guess not much was missed! And they did include a BTS of the filming of the MV so I got my dose of CBS then!
Also, also, I had YuiYuki to keep me company and I tell you all now, this ship is really growing on me! Those two had almost the same hair-do in this performance and you would be hard pressed to not think them of as sisters were you to see them on the street waking together looking like this! Is it just me or does YuiYui look like the old Yukirin with her high ponytail?
So cute >.<
For some odd reason I noticed them a lot more here. Maybe it’s because Sakura-tan is missing so I can concentrate on YuiYui more or because my love for the ship is growing out of control or the cameramen just can’t resist like I do, either way I love it and them even more than I did a few days back!
Also, also, those mad men just went and did it! They gave me an Easter Egg! Like, I never even imagined that I would ever see an Easter Egg in a Music Video of all places! But those absolute madmen did it when they pulled moment from Teacher Teacher, albeit mirrored, and dropped it right smack middle in No WAN MAN! What am I talking about? This of course…
I stan!
Speaking of noticing things, can you believe that I did not notice Sashiko in the MV at all! Like, I was surprised to see her on the covers because I did not think she was in the MV! And yet here she is! Was she in the MV? I guess I have to watch it again to make sure! Seriously, I don’t remember seeing her at all!
The song is still growing on me but the dance has got me hooked! I just pray that inevitably they do a full version! Today too though we have to take away the good fact that it was not cut to pieces! It’s one of the things I can’t stand on Korea’s Music Shows! The editing gives brain damage! Here though the camera lingered and let you sock in the dance moves to your fill and when Yukirin was on screen in her uncut glory, I was in heaven!
Seriously, credit where credit is due! Took you long enough but thank you AKS, thank you for giving Yukirin her just desserts! And you know, now I kind of understand why they never gave her the light of day because when she is centre, she literally and figuratively shadows some of if not most of the other girls! Just look at her in that middle spread, she is so powerful >.<
