Red Velvet- Red Flavor

I was really excited to see Red Velvet come out with a new song, especially since they are one of my favorite girl groups (one less since Sistar disbanded 😢). I was a little scared though since I didn't really like Rookie that much, and I was hoping they won't continue on where they were going with Rookie. Thankfully, I like the song a lot more than Rookie

I really enjoyed the song and video, and it had the bright, fun feeling typical of Red Velvet. The song really highlighted the girls voices with the minimal background music. Throughout the song, there were a lot of parts where there was only a rhythm section in the background, which really had the vocals stand out. I really love how that was done in the song, since Red Velvet has really solid vocals and are great with harmonies and blending. I really enjoyed the song and the vocals were really good, despite it being a very fun pop song. However, I didn't really like the ending. I love Wendy, she's my bias member and she sings beautifully, but I didn't really find the ending to fit well with the rest of the song.

The video was very fun, as usual. It really brought me back to their debut of Happiness. I love the different sets and the sort of interview, tv thing they had going on. I love how each of the members had a fruit associated with them, and they were used throughout the video. I also love how they continue to use the colors associated with the members since debut.

Irene- Pink Watermelon
Yeri- Purple Grape
Joy- Green Kiwi
Seulgi- Yellow Pineapple
Wendy- Blue Orange

Overall, I really enjoyed the song and video. It was very fun, just as you would expect and want from Red Velvet, and was perfect for summer. I really hope that Red Velvet continues to produce music like this, which I really enjoy. Soo... umm... 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...
