Idol

Literal visual eye candy. Every second is a blast to watch, and every beat of the song is entrancing and sparkling (much like the titular character Ai Hoshino). A must-watch for Yoasobi fans, AMV [Animated Music Video] fans, and "Oshi no Ko fans"! There's something for everybody in this music video, and the 23+ million views on YouTube (as of April 20th, 2023) are much deserved. I can't wait to see what else both Yoasobi and "Oshi no Ko" have in store for the anime and music worlds!

The flashiness was the only aspect of the music video that may be off-putting to some viewers.

This review will be short. But I got nothing to say much since this is a ~4 minute music video.

The entire song is catchy, but overall, the lyrics and themes are boring and generic. Like come on, can you get more creative than saying that being an idol is nothing more than lies or the fans are being fake with you? So many other previous songs have already been created about these themes and this song only gotten popular because it got played in the anime's first episode and being its OP.

There are plenty more better songs than this.

I have watched the MV "Idol" and I must say, the animation is incredibly generic and uninspired. The movements of the characters lack creativity and the overall visuals do not stand out at all. I have seen better animation from underground authors with no real budget.

As for the music, I won't comment much on it as it sounds incredibly generic and lacks any real originality. The overall production is a complete goyslop, and I cannot say that I am impressed by it at all. It's unfortunate to see such a lack of creativity and originality in the anime industry these days.

Regarding YAOISOBI, I must say ... that their music is not to my personal taste. In fact, I find their music to be quite brain-damaging and lacking in artistic merit. However, I understand that taste in music is subjective, and what may not appeal to me may be loved by others. Ultimately, it's up to each individual to decide whether or not they enjoy YAOISOBI's music.
