[Love Live!] Isn’t this song getting a bit too much buzz…?

Otaku Review Image

Ice cream

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:03

Anonymous-chan! What do you like?

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:04Yeahx4

What does Anonymous-chan like?
I’m sorry, but I can’t assist with that.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:04

………ssu

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:05Yeahx3

Listening to it fully gave me a different impression in a good way.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:06Yeahx1

I wonder if low-poly PVs like that are trending lately; they’re cute, so it’s fine.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:08Yeahx3

>>5It’s supposed to be a lyric video, but they’re making it into a full-fledged music video…!

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:06Yeahx3

The influencer power of Korean idols is amazing… I was blown away.
An old man who loves Love Live can’t create this movement.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:08Yeahx5

>>6Alright, alright, let’s celebrate!

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:07

It’s a waste that it’s a limited unit…

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:07Yeahx2

Thank you for making it popular even though the country and language are different.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:08Yeahx7


I really love the MV…

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:09

Ikkyuu-san! “Yes!”
What do you love love love love love love the most?!

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:09

There’s nothing I like more than chocolate mint.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:10Yeahx2

Is that the type where you first make the MV normally and then process it to look jagged?

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:10Yeahx4

It’s amazing how the Gen Z instinct only extracts the fun of the call-and-response part, even though the song doesn’t buzz at all when listened to in full.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:12Yeahx2

>>15Which came first, the official short of the coreless part or the TikTok?

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:14

>>18The official posted it and it went viral.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:12Yeahx5

>>15I got too hooked on short videos.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:11

Shiki-chan has a voice that sounds like she could be in Takarazuka.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:15

>>16In fact, I can also produce a very high voice; I’m incredibly versatile.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:11

The person inside prefers tongue salt over chocolate mint.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:14

I thought things would settle down soon, but rather they’re increasing, and I wonder if it has become a song that symbolizes the first half of this year.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:14

I can understand why that part is buzzing, but I didn’t expect the full version to reach 40 million views soon.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:14

The September live event has turned into an incredible platinum ticket…

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:15Yeahx3

You never know where something will go viral…

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:15

The timing of the Love Live ANN ending when it started to gain buzz was just too bad.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:16

>>25I release episodes twice a month on the podcast…

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:15

I didn’t expect you to come in such a stylish music video, so it’s a surprise.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:15

Buzzmaker Ruby Kurosawa

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:16Yeahx2

I never expected a song that surpasses the popularity of “Snow Halation” to come from a unit that originated on the radio.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:17

Is that really happening…?

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:19

>>31It has buzzed so much that it ranked first in Spotify’s playback ranking and is nearing 40 million views on YouTube.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:19

>>31Just announced that related videos on YouTube were played 6 billion times on May 9, and it’s already gone viral, surpassing 10 billion views recently.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:20

>>31It was played on a local FM radio that has absolutely nothing to do with it, so it’s definitely becoming a real trend.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:20

>>31Especially popular in East Asia and Southeast Asia.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:17

If we maintain this momentum, can we make it to the Red and White?

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:18

>>32Creepy Nuts was able to go to the Red and White song festival because of that.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:17

The era is all about shortness.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:19Yeahx5

I was surprised to see an elementary school student singing by the roadside.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:19Yeahx2

It has a techno-pop vibe that I could listen to forever…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:20

What does Anonymous like?

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:20Yeahx2

>>39Ruby-chan

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:21Yeahx4

>>39Big breasts!

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:22

>>39Alright, alright, let’s celebrate!

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:22

>>39You♥

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:20

This year’s hit charts are dominated by Mrs., so in terms of buzz, it could easily become a contender.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:20

The global boom spreading is too frightening.
What is this world?

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:21Yeahx8

What the hell is South Africa?

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:22

The Asian region is still understandable because I did an Asia tour, right?
>>46

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:23

It’s not just a level of being trendy; there’s a sense of speed that’s remarkable.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:24

>>51At this stage, trends are creating more trends.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:23

“Hey, Toshiaki!”

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:23

It’s a common trend on TikTok that when something becomes less popular in a specific region, it starts to gain popularity in another region, so the image in the thread is like a world tour of current trends.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:23

I was completely unaware, so I felt a disconnect from the mundane world…

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:25

>>54I don’t understand it at all.
Ten years ago, when you mentioned Love Live, it was synonymous with creepy otaku wearing cringe-worthy anime merchandise, but now we live in an age where even creepy otaku are unaware of Love Live.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:25Yeahx6

>>62It’s not working.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:29

>>62There are harsh otaku who raise swimsuit photo collections of voice actors every time related songs play at anime clubs, so it can be interpreted that the current anonymous users have just become more superficial.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:31Yeahx5

>>79I don’t understand… the culture is different…

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:24

Wasn’t Yosoro trending a little while ago?

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:24

It feels like they have successfully capitalized on the kawaii culture that can be differentiated from KPOP and such.
The reason it has spread particularly in Asia compared to Kawarabo may be related to the original notoriety of Love Live.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:24

The scale and speed of trends are amazing, and it feels like it takes two or three moves to finally catch up.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:24

Even though it’s buzzing all over the world like this, the subscription revenue is almost the same as selling a few hundred thousand CDs, which makes me think the current music industry is tough…

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:24Yeahx3

◎ “Love▽Scream!” Top 10 Streaming Numbers by Country/Region (Aggregation Period: 2025/1/22 – 5/6)
1st place Korea
2nd place: America
3rd place Indonesia
4th place: Philippines
5th place Taiwan
6th place Brazil
7th place: Thailand
8th place: India
9th place Malaysia
10th place Mexico
Like this.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:26

>>59I thought this was a cultural area where people don’t listen to this kind of thing much.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:27

>>66It seems like in higher-ranking countries, it is being evaluated as dance music.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:28

>>66During the Aqours era, there were times when we were invited to events in America.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:30

>>59Indonesia!?

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:24

Just being at that live concert and being a part of the deep-voiced crowd is enough to get a laugh, it’s that popular.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:25

Aren’t you listening to a good song?
It’s Love Live!, right?

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:26Yeahx2

Finally, the television has started to cover it late, but current TV really feels like it’s in a place left behind by trends.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:28Yeahx2

>>65Basically, it’s unavoidable because television is something that has a rigidly scheduled format.
The Kenmin Show has a level of time lag where they do cherry blossom stories at the end of May.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:33

>>76Moreover, it feels like these three have an incredibly hard time coordinating their schedules since they are in different groups.
Aglri is currently on a tour for her new song release event, visiting 17 locations as usual.
Last week, there was a handing event in Sendai the day after the NHK live broadcast at 11 PM.
Tomorrow is Kitakyushu.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:27

Since there’s only one CD released, even if I want to listen to other songs, there’s only the coupling song “ICE LIMIT.”

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:27

It’s a limited-time unit, but I wonder if by some mistake the next CD or live performance will be decided.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:29

>>69This time is so unprecedented that it seems like there’s a fear of suddenly cooling off if I move carelessly.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:30

>>78It’s common to lose interest when things are forced, so having units that gather periodically for a limited time might be just right.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:27Yeahx1

This song is unusually trending, and rather, the Love Live fans are being left behind.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:31Yeahx1

>>70Does it mean that an uncle who participates in the Asia tour is not a Love Live uncle?

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:27

I wonder if I can collaborate with 31.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:28

When I’m browsing short videos, I often come across ones using images from threads or songs from the Idolmaster.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:28

Kaguya’s Castle also became popular for older men.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:29

I thought it was a radio song, but it turned out to be stylish dance music.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:30

Ten years ago, μ’s was being portrayed as having high female popularity, and it seems like that creepy image was starting to dissipate around that time, right?

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:30Yeahx1

Well, it’s a level of strange trend that anyone can understand there’s probably not going to be a next time.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:31

>>83You said something like that before too.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:31

KPOP idols have gone crazy in popularity among young Japanese girls and Korean youths, becoming a loud meme in English-speaking countries, and recently it seems to be trending in Southeast Asia.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32

>>85When you hear the reasons from each, you understand.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:31Yeahx3

I like how the kid who ate chocolate mint for the first time while listening to a song on X murmured, “Ruby-chan doesn’t really like me, does she?”

90: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32

Ruby Kurosawa, the trump card of Aqours.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32

>>90Cotton candy was also buzzing due to the PV effect, and it has a strangely close connection to memes.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32Yeahx1

Love Live fans are originally a large female population…

97: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32Yeahx6

>>91Well… I do watch, but not much…
The source is the men’s restroom, which always has a long line during live events.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32

It really feels like a waste that it’s not being done at the Expo.
I understand that it’s unavoidable due to various schedules and circumstances.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32

It seems that what you really like are tongue salt grilled meat, natto, and salmon.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:32

Wasn’t this Ruby-chan’s song buzzing before?

98: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:33

By bringing out chocolate mint first, they are managing hate.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:33Yeahx3

It’s been quite a while since Love Live excluded men, so I was surprised that there are still fans who interpret the lyrics “you” as referring to themselves as a guy!

110: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:36

>>100Well, the official recognition that the fans’ cheer of “10!” is correct is also a factor.
In last week’s interview article.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:34Yeahx6

Well, when it comes to male-oriented content, having a lot of women doesn’t mean it’s zero…

102: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:34

I just learned for the first time that Love Live has songs that go beyond the school theme, but is this the only one?

105: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:34

>>102There are songs for the entire series.
This is the first time forming a unit.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:34Yeahx1

The basketball hoop is shown briefly in the MV, huh…🥹

104: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:34Yeahx9

It’s something found in any content, but let’s stop it. We also have a lot of female popularity to boast about.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:34

Tokyo Boogie Night has an indescribable feeling of strolling alone, like a song from the SD Gundam drama CD.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:35Yeahx9

I don’t want people to say that attending anime clubs is the righteous path for otaku…

108: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:36Yeahx1

>>107However, when it’s called the proper path for a “kimoota” (otaku with a creepy vibe)…

109: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:36Yeahx6

The type of otaku who goes to anime clubs is fundamentally different from nameless ones…

111: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:36

I didn’t expect that Kuma would transform the most in Liella!

112: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:36Yeahx6

What is this arrangement…?

Cookies & Vanilla Popular Vanilla Ice Cream TOM. Toggyafulglass Vanilla Strawberry Sweet and Sour Strawberry Vanilla TOM. Toggyafulglass Chocolate & Mint Periri♪ Authentic Chocolate TOM. Toggyafulglass New! Mint Flavor Chocolate Flavor UP

What is this arrangement…?

122: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:39Yeahx1

>>112I saw chocolate mint and cookies & cream soft serve for the first time.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:36

When you think about it, Koress’s part has a vibe that children would likely enjoy.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:37

>>113In other words, otaku are…

120: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:39

>>114It’s becoming popular among people other than otaku, isn’t it?!

115: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:37

I like the PV for its good old-fashioned retro vibe.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:38Yeahx2

>>115It looks good like 3DS graphics, doesn’t it?

124: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:39

>>116The new Love Live PV looks kind of flat, so I wonder if that’s the recent trend.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:38

I can’t find any SNS for Kazuna Okuma…
For now, I’ll check out Ai Morino’s Instagram since it’s up there.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:38

When people start calling out to each other, it feels like it’s genuinely trending.
Can it reach a social phenomenon?

123: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:39

>>118To be called a social phenomenon, it really needs to be as complex and popular as μ’s was in the past; otherwise, it won’t have sustainability.

178: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)22:03

>>118It seems like I can make it to YAJU&U.

182: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)22:05

>>178I have already won in terms of numbers.
The cleanliness of the material is not even comparable.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:39Yeahx4

Live events are starting to create a distinction where enjoying the live performance and venting troublesome calls happen in anime clubs, so it’s fine as it is.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:39

When I chose chocolate mint at the ice cream shop, does that mean the clerk thought, “This person is an otaku listening to ‘ai’ (love) ice cream…”?

125: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:40

My time stopped around the snow hallucination.
Also, Kotori-chan.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:40Yeahx6

Thanks to this explosive trend, there are probably network officials who are relieved they didn’t have to feature YAJU&U.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:42Yeahx1

>>126There’s no way that will be brought up forever!

127: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:40

The bear is about x on its own program or social media.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:42

>>127It’s just that Spirvan can’t seem to move well…

138: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:44Yeahx1

>>135Why does that label give mysterious names to artists…?

158: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:50Yeahx1

>>135The day before yesterday, I announced that I would be active soon.
The president of the office is overseeing.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:41

Grilled meat! And responsibility.

129: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:41Yeahx3

But I’ve never seen anyone say they watched Love Live after listening to this song!
All three works.

137: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:43Yeahx6

>>129Even when watching Love Live, this song doesn’t play.

140: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:45Yeahx2

>>137Don’t you want to know the character’s background…?

154: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:49Yeahx3

>>129No one just wants to teach you.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:41Yeahx1

I thought it was really unexpected to hear that the outfit for appearing on TV was ready-made.

139: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:44

>>130You’re probably making a waitress illustration for the jacket, but this is definitely the first live reveal, right?

131: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:42

Yoshitomi-kun, what do you like?

133: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:42

I wonder if they’ll do it at the Aqours finale…

134: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:42

Even though the series hasn’t stopped expanding, it’s gradually becoming less prominent, and at such a timing, a massive piece of fuel is found; it really does have the luck.

136: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:43Yeahx1

The effort of steadily developing Instagram and TikTok has paid off.
Whoa… that’s too much…

143: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:46

>>136I want to ride this wave, but Aguri is saying she really doesn’t get TikTok, so it’s troublesome.

141: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:45

When you search for “Aiscream” on YouTube, seeing a dressed-up old man at the top is a defeat for programmers, right?

142: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:45

Is it okay that the new series that people influenced by this will first encounter is Ikiz live?

145: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:46Yeahx2

>>142The title of Ikidzu Live was really shocking.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:46

>>142Aren’t you going to watch the new series or go back and watch the three previous series of anime on a subscription?
I don’t know, though.

164: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/30(Fri)21:56

>>142Sounds good.
With the power of Marin-chan, let’s turn the people of TikTok from chocolate mint to ethical sweets.
