In addition to the songs, new songs are also included for each type. So The lead song of the album “Ai no Hegai” is a song that sings about the difficulty of caring for someone and the strength that comes from love.
It was unveiled for the first time on the first day of the “STU48 7th Anniversary Tour” held at Kobe Bunka Hall on Sunday, and it was announced that Mai Nakamura, a 3rd generation draft member, would serve as the sole center for the first time.
The music video released today begins with a scene in which Mai Nakamura runs as fast as she can through the schoolyard of Hiroshima Prefectural Setoda High School, where it was filmed.
Start. The facial expressions of each member are captured one by one during their high school lives, and the individuals gradually form a group with Nakamura at the center.
Showcasing a dynamic and energetic performance. The final scene where STU48 runs through the group with lively expressions shows the new members entering their 8th year.
It makes you feel hopeful for the new future created by STU48. On June 12th (Wednesday), a release day event will be held at Hiroshima’s Hiroshima Station South Exit underground plaza, June 8th (Saturday) at Abeno Q’s Mall in Osaka, and June 16th at Abeno Q’s Mall in Osaka.
Release commemorative events will be held at Lazona Kawasaki Plaza in Kanagawa on Sunday, July 6th, and at Emiful MASAKI in Ehime on Saturday, July 6th.
All mini-lives in the store can be viewed for free, and the special event (limited to those who purchase eligible products on the day) is an event commemorating the release of the 4th single.
It is now possible to participate in a handshake event with the members for the first time since.
Lead song “The Weight of Love” Center Mai Nakamura comments
Anyway, it was an MV that ran at full speed. We will run with all our might, get everyone involved, and move from individuals to groups. The MV focuses on all the members and is full of a sense of speed! The final dance scene is a dynamic dance that breaks out of their shell and is different from STU48’s previous performances. Please pay attention to our energetic side!
“The Weight of Love” MV Director Yui Yui Comments
From the planning stage, we proceeded with the production with the intention of creating a work that clearly conveyed the backgrounds and thoughts of all the members.
The composition is such that each person’s feelings are vividly conveyed through the screen, and the individuality of each person is combined to form a “group.”
The story itself is a work of fiction, as I aimed to create a space between reality and unreality.
However, I think that each individual’s real feelings emerge from their perspective. member’s
The “full power” of everyone who was involved in the production came together to create a music video that makes us feel like we are running with all our might on a new path ahead.
Please take a look.
“The Weight of Love” Choreography/CRE8BOY Comments
In the MV, the last chorus is the climax and the scene with the highest amount of energy, so we focused on choreographing the song so that it would be an energetic expression that uses the body to its fullest.
We also hope that this song will be a new challenge for them and that they will further evolve as the new STU48.
At the rehearsal, it was impressive to see how they listened to our ideas and worked hard. We hope you will enjoy STU48’s performance with all its heart and soul.
