Seventeen- Highlight

The choreography video for this song came out yesterday, and I LOVE IT!! I adore that the performance team is able to really shine with this song. I know that many fans have been worried and upset over the lack of lines that the performance team gets, but this song really lets these get the recognition that they deserve. Personally, the performance team is my favorite, and I am very excited about this video.

First of all, I adore the suits!! <3 I know that seventeen also used suits and dress wear with NO F.U.N. (which is probably my favorite Seventeen song EVER!!), and I love that they decided to use dress wear again. All the boys look AMAZING!!! I love pinstripes suits in general, so I love The8's pinstripe suit the most. I also love Jun's hair, the blue is GREAT!! And of course my bias Hoshi looked perfect <3 and Dino looked amazing :).

As expected, the dancing was phenomenal. It provided the energy that Seventeen tends to use in their dancing, which is my favorite part of Seventeen's choreography. The way that the performance team works together is breathtaking and you can see the beautiful synchronicity and effortless teamwork. There was also a sort of elegance that the boys were able to show, which is probably due to how the song itself is more mellow than what Seventeen usually preforms to with their title tracks.

Talking about the song itself, I surprisingly enjoyed it. I'm usually not a fan of songs with a large amount of synth and electronic music breaks for dancing, but I kind of liked it with this song. Especially with the video, I was able to appreciate it more since I could see the dancing that, of course, worked perfectly with the instrumentals. My favorite part would probably be the part right before the dance breaks that The8 sings. It's really catchy and overall enjoyable. I also have to say that the part Jun sings in the bridge kind of reminds of me of VIXX's Error, especially with the background music. It's great that we are able to really hear the performance team's voices and hear them sing and rap. I really love their voices and I hope we can hear more of them in more of Seventeen's title tracks.

In general, Highlight is a great video and song. I fully enjoyed it and was sooo happy to see that the performance team was able to really shine. I hope that these boys will be able to showcase their talents more often in the future!! :)

By the way, HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I hope everyone is able to enjoy the next year! :)


Oh yeah, here's the video for Highlight! :D Soo.... um... yeah...

Sailor Moon- Jadeite

After a watching a video on Sailor Moon that was constantly on my recommended on YouTube, I was reminded with how much I loved this show. This, of course, led me to rewatch the entire show because wasting hours of my life for no reason is my favorite past time. I also found that I seriously lacked anime content so that led me to want to write about it. I was trying to figure out how writing this would work because there are a lot of episodes which means I'm not going to review Sailor Moon as a whole because I would forget the beginning by the time I got to the end. I also would not review every single episode because again there are a lot and since it's a superhero show there are a lot of "throw away" episodes. (This also lead me to want to create an "essential viewing" list, which would include only episodes that I think is important in regards to plot or character development.) The arcs themselves are quite large and are split into even smaller parts with ...

NCT Dream- Chewing Gum

Ok, so, another sub group of NCT, NCT Dream, came out Chewing Gum. This might be favorite single that NCT came out with. It's so bright, fun, and cute. Every time I see the video I break out into a smile. The story is pretty lighthearted, and it's very entertaining to watch. I absolutely love the bright colors that they use throughout the video. It really adds to the group's cute and bright theme. I found the video quite interesting to watch. They had a variety of different sets, including the ones made by the computer, and all of them were of bright colors. I also enjoyed the electronic made backgrounds for when the members had the closeups. Each person had a different animated background, so it was interesting to see what was behind them. I also kind of funny that they were using those hoverboard-thingies. (I have no idea what they're called, but I think it's a hoverboard?) The song is quite catchy, and I could probably listen to it over and over again for hou...

Astro- Baby

For those who might know, Astro is a somewhat new group under Fantagio that debuted in 2016. I have been fans of theirs since I watched To Be Continued, which is available on Netflix. 😉 (Check it out!) Sanha has to be my bias 💛, but Moon Bin is such a bias wrecker. 😖 I LOVE this song! It continues their fresh, sweet, and fun concept that they have kept since debut. However, this is less cutesy and right up my alley. It's smooth but still bright, which is absolutely perfect. It has that certain funk to it that is irresistible and insanely catchy. The reoccurring beat is sooo catchy and is great. The electric guitar at 2:43 is EPIC!! I'd have to say though that the ending has to be my favorite part. That beautiful harmony hits the spot, and is perfection. But, Sanha singing the 2nd chorus was really great as well (I really love his voice 💛) One thing I love about this video is how it's filmed in first person so it feels as if you are truly experiencing what's happ...
