First day for the music video is done.
She's continuing shooting today after resting.







She is revisiting some past looks!
Live looks tho, the first one being from 2006, one from last year s.o.
So I guess it's right, that Haircut is about identity and it's the theme of the album.

I love her look here. I saw it on Insta. She looks stunning. What a gorgeous woman.

It could also be for WATCH OUT ~DNA~, because of the name of the song. Who knows.

-----

I don't know why I still try to go to JPC, people are so negative there, geez.

Anyway, if you're wondering how they took the picture together since Kumi wasn't there for the live portion of the festival, Mika's performance was also pre recorded. She did the "you at THE ARTIST" thing, with the white skirt with projections, which was very nice!

I just have to say that I'm loving seeing the DNA project getting build. It's nice that she's sharing that stuff not only with the FC now, but with everybody through Instagram.

I'm assuming it's for HAIRCUT, cause Kuu mentioned it yesterday on her stories, when her dancers were singing the song.
But of course she could also shoot both new PVs back to back, considering she usually only needs 1 full day to record a PV. Maybe they're going to be connected.
Would be cool.

HAIRCUT is about identity, as far as I can understand the lyrics from the short version.
It's a bit hard with those vocoder effects in between
But would also make sense with the theme of the album and a nice continuation of the AND album theme.

Edit:
Here are the outfits I think are from the past as far as somebody can tell.





They're not exacly the same, but similar.
Though on the second it looks like she's wearing the neon outfit from AND Tour instead of Versace (but Versace with the butterfly one for the new PV).
It's fun to speculate, what she's doing with it and why.

I'm guessing she did both PVs today. Some more pictures, one of them has WATCH OUT written and more hairstyle.

Guess Who Is Back is the song with the tie-in!
It's the new opening for the popular Anime Black Clover starting with Episode 40.
It premiers on July 10th!
(and Faky are doing the new ending, that's great as well)

^Awesome news. I don't know this anime but I'm glad that it's a popular one. Hopefully, this will boost DNA sales a little. I'm also hoping that she'll do a few TV performances to promote DNA like she did for W FACE. She should add a new version of Megumi no Hito as a bonus track on the album since people are going crazy about it. lol

Speaking of Megumi no Hito, short version of the MV now has over 6m views. It would have been awesome if Music Station invited her to perform it and a new song from DNA.

Same. I loved PARTY MV. It was fun and very well done. Made me love the song even more.

It's not overshining everything like One Piece, but it has success.
It was the 10th most streamed anime last season and the manga sold about 6 million copies so far.

Btw. I overlooked it before, but the annoucement also says at the end , that Kuu is providing a song for the coming mobile phone game of the anime as well!

That's great! Can't wait for Guess Who I Back! To be honest I like pretty much all of her anime songs, even Go Way

Twinkle, Go Way, Cutie Honey, No Regret, Crazy 4 U, Go To The Top, Into your heart, Hey Baby are very high energy. ♥

I live this FNS performance of Unmei! She looks gorgeous.

I was watching again the TV Tokyo Ongakusai and a little before morning musume's performance they showed a bit of Maki's audition for the group. I wish Kumi was there live so we could have some interaction about that, since she was also auditioning to be part of the 3rd generation.

Megumi no Hito is still doing pretty well haha what a sleeper hit it is.

Still pretty good, it's not super niche at least, meaning she'll get some exposure. Would have been awesome if Music Station invited her to perform Guess Who Is Back, she hasn't been there since 2012. Speaking of which, was Total Eclipse anime big?

Megumi no Hito is at #107 on Japanese iTunes, I wish more TV shows invited her to perform Megumi no Hito. I guess it's safe to say that she'll perform it at a-nation this year.
