Ex-AKB48 Itano Tomomi releases Ayu-influenced PV

[emi♡]

god, even the music is an ayu mish mash

And yeah, her voice is awful.


lulz this is like the poor man's ayu.

[waterballoon]

but she's so cute.. and hot. lol. I've been a fan since Dear J so the song is acceptable for her standards

[sesshy]

I miss Ayu's freaky PVs.

[Larien]

The art direction of the PV is great, I think. But I'm going to be a jerk and say that as an artist I find her a snooze fest vocally and in general, I guess.

Found it on youku! Here you go : http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMzU1OTQzMzQw.html
Cuteness overload

[kiseki89]

black grey scene with her face, nails and hair = part of ayu's heaven
the pv isnt something that i'll expect from akb-related
reminds me of ayu's dark but thoughtful pv (ayu's current pv is screaming a little too cheerful). whoever came up with the pv good job but utterly distracted by her singing
song has potential but her singing a bit too not nice
lastly, her single jacket cover..... i guess that's the end of creativity

she's too plain for my tastes lol

which is understandable since she was a part of akb. They're all so japanese girl next door.

sadly so... but this is what it is I guess. edgy artistes usually go solo

I get some stupid error >_< can't see it
edit: seen it! thank you!!
BTW she's THE SAME. when she screams ARIIINAAA haha. sounds exactly like ayu from dome tour 2000!!!

[Chibi-Chan]

She's so boring and dull... and she really can't sing. AND it's a shameless rip-off of Ayu.

[Heavenly]

Her song seems not "rockish" enough for this kind of PV.
And it's so obvious that she uses a lot of inspirations.

[Mirrorcle Monster]

Seriously, some of you are rude as hell. Calm down, really. She is just starting and she just left the group, which means that now she is gettin more control of her career. Its like judgind ayu based on poker face PV/song

[mi|kshake]

Just watched the video and I really like both it and the song.

I'm not really a fan of idol groups so never thought I'd be listening to any of their solo efforts. The video does remind me of Ourselves, but nothing wrong with that!!

Thanks for the video link!

[Andrenekoi]

Everyone starts copying someone else, Ayu included, and she is not the first (nor the 2nd or 3rd) to follow Ayu's path.

Also, it's kinda ironic seeing Ayu's fandom bashing someone for bad singing considering everything from Poker Face to M or so...

[tsumekaze_]

While I agree that her voice is not one of the best I really like this girl. I liked her back in akb48 and I like her now, she might not be the best out there but this is not SO BAD, come on. I loved DEAR J, wanna be now, 1%. Try these ones out!

agreed on the fact that the song is not rockish/dark enough for the pv though XD

You're right on this. She may deliver something better in the future. I already said that the pv is really good, just that I don't feel that it matches the song so well. But she departed well fom akb.

[Mr. Goto]

i thought of ayu when i first heard this too

tomochin rox but her voice doesn't suit this kind of music at all, she needs to stick to dance/pop. the b-side BRIGHTER is way better

[hayasaki]

Even though I dislike AKB48, i like some of the members/ex members especially when I see potentials to them. Tomo-chin is really interesting the first time i saw her. i've listened to her performance and liked her lower register. I even loved the song more when I learned that she wrote the lyrics herself. I might buy the single

[Dream]

Honestly this girl has no talent, no charisma, she's just dull and boring. Can't sing, can't perform...

I guess some of her songs could be nice if sang by an actual singer.
