koi geba

i didn’t know where else to write my thoughts about this, so i figured i’d throw them here.

i rewatched the music video recently and realised that it’s shot incredibly voyeuristically. it feels both like we’re an outsider seeing something we’re not supposed to be seeing, and like we’re law enforcement sifting through evidence.

as an outsider, we’re seeing shots from outside windows, peeking through doors and into adjacent apartment buildings. like we’ve just happened to glance over and catch something we’re not supposed to have seen.

as law enforcement, it’s watching the cctv. in the elevator, on the street, etc. it feels a bit to me like we’re investigating the relationship between the teacher/student and collecting evidence.

maybe this has been said before and i’m just late to the party but i just love the cinematography in the video. i think it’s just so clever and i wanted to highlight it :>

i consider this music video to be the best one ever

A guide to Atarashii Gakko!

Atarashii Gakko is a Japanese girl group formed in 2015. In 2017, they signed with Victor entertainment for a Japanese debut, with the song Dokubana. They made their worldwide debut in January 2021 with 88rising with their song NAINAINAI. There are four members, Mizyu (24), Rin (21), Suzuka (21) and Kanon (21).

Mizyu is not only the oldest, but she is also the leader. She was born in Tokyo, is 4'11 and is a Capricorn. Her role is kawaii-but-fierce. When she was a child she was a model, she was also in not only a dance group called ABC under DSK, but she was also a Kyary Kid ( backup dancer for Kyary Pamyu Pamyu)!

Next is Rin. She is 5', a Virgo and she was born in Saitama. Her role is funky. She was a 1st generation model at DSK, and she was a junior model at DANSTREET in 2014. Mizyu and Kanon think she will be the first member to get married, and apparently she cooks rice when she is in a bad mood.

Third is Suzuka. She is the tallest member by 14cm, she stands at 5'6. She is a Sagittarius, and was born in Osaka. Her role is wildcard. She has two older sisters. One of them, Sakika, was a founding member and vocalist in GIRLFRIEND (disbanded in 2021). Her other sister Momoka works on the media team for the website TABI LABO. All three sisters have attended Caless Vocal and Dance School Osaka.

Lastly is Kanon. She is the youngest member, she is a Capricorn, like Mizyu. She is 5' and was born in Gunma. Her role is graceful. Her highest score was 100% and her lowest ever score was 60%! She goes to meet with her friends when she is in a bad mood. She can also run 50m in 8 seconds.

They have two albums, Maenarawanai (2018) and Wakage Ga Itaru (2019). They also have 18 singles: Dokubana (2017), Kimiwaina'17 (2017), Koinosyadanki feat H ZETTRIO (2018), Saisyu Jinrui(2018), Ookami No Uta (2018), Mayoeba Toutoshi (2018), Koi Geba (2019), OTONABLUE (2020), Quesera sera (2020), KOIBUMI (2020), NAINAINAI (2021), Freaks (2021), Pineapple Kyrptonite (2021), SNACKTIME (2021), Free your mind (2022), WOO! GO! (2022), HANAKO (2022) and their latest The Edge (2023). My favorite songs right now are Koi Geba, WOO! GO!, OTONABLUE, Fantastico and NAINAINAI!

I hope you have enjoyed this guide!

The koi geba mv is just so fucking good. I think the mastery of it really lies in the fact it’s mostly shown as security camera footage, in addition to the fact the girls are always right beside the teacher and student but never interact or are acknowledged in any way. It really feels like the “observer that stays silent” part of the situation. Even as Suzuka expresses so many different emotions, ranging from desire to begging and distress, especially when she reaches for the camera in the elevator, no one ever intervenes. And when she’s miming punching kanon… it could mean a lot of things from the girl beating herself up, to society pushing her down, to even the teacher himself. I’m not really sure, but I think that’s a good thing.

Yeah idk it’s just. A really fucking good mv and it’s amazing fucking commentary and just. Augh. It’s amazing.
