Who’s ready for a random BAND-MAID release? To promote their album that came out last month, BAND-MAID have release a pretty awesome MV for everyone to enjoy. In it we get to see the group rock out in a dark room, making for some grungy goodness from this maid group.

> BiS say goodbye to Pour Lui in the MV for DiPROMiSE

Pour Lui has always been a part of BiS. But, with her graduation it’s not surprising that they decided to say goodbye in a powerful way. In her last MV we get to see her throughout the years, performing and talking about her time with the group. It’s touching and among the best ways to say goodbye. We’ll miss you Pour Lui!

AKB48 have a colorful school celebration in Jabaja

Kicking off AKB48’s 51st single we have the MV for the main track, and boy is it colorful. In it we get to see the members as they join a school celebration. There are tons of people there to dance along with the members, making for a must see video.

> Sakamichi AKB dance on light for Kokkyo no Nai Jidai

The next MV for AKB48’s single features Sakamichi AKB as they dance on a light platform. It’s an absolute delight to see the members dance as the floor changes in patterns. It’s simple but among the best looking MVs for this release, check it out!

Who has time to wait for the rest of the MVs? Thankfully we didn’t have to wait long to see the rest of the videos because we got them all at once. It’s a lot of videos to watch but they are well worth the time simply because of how unique the music and visuals are.

> Perfume dance on a hill for Mugen Mirai

Perfume have been big into technology in their MVs, but in their latest release they go back to nature. Taking place in the hills of Guam, Perfume manage to give us a rather impressive video to enjoy. Go back to nature and enjoy this release along with Perfume!

> Yukueshirezu Tsurezure visit a church in Paradise Lost

Tsurezure recently got a new member Mei, so why not introduce her to fans? That’s exactly what we get in their MV for Paradise Lost. Taking place in a church, we get to see the members give their all in this rather catchy release. Make sure to check out Mei’s debut above!

This week we have HIMEGAMI CRISIS and their MV for Kyoukasuigetsu.

Ballad releases are pretty hard to get correct, with most releases just being slow songs that lack passion. Thankfully, HIMEGAMI CRISIS have released a pretty passionate song for fans to enjoy.

In this video we get to see the group perform near a cherry blossom tree, in the rain, and in a white void. It’s a pretty well done video but the song is the true focus of this release. The slow beat and the slight Japanese instruments give it a rather impressive sound that fans will adore.

Make sure to check out the short MV below and enjoy this impressive release!
