| Yonemai and Araki greatness nice short yuri anime |
deg said: I'm not sure about yuri-ness here, I think the idol is a crossdresser (see the transition of the black-haired boy into the pink-haired idol). Also for some reason they're involved in a military coup, wtf is going on nice short yuri anime Either way, Yonemai's designs are incredible as usual, this was a great project with awesome MVs. So many talented creators involved. |

I think it kind of alludes to the boy crossdressing as a girl. |

| Don't mind me, just passing by... Halloween 2024:       |
| @St0rmblade & @tl_dr 1:13 military plane in the background 2:06 solar eclipse "For many people in ancient times, a total solar eclipse generated fear. They thought the world would come to an end or a great evil would follow." |
| Yonemai CDs are so fucking good. Also seems like full on supervision by her. |
| Geeeeeeeez this is the animation we need in a show from WIT. Also idc if thats a dude, they hot af. |
| I don't know what the hell just happened, but the hottest idol girl in the industry just dropped and it turned out to be a guy. |

LittleStar said: I noticed it from the start (it's a helicopter) so yeah it was "foreshadowed" but I still have no idea with they decided to include a coup in the plot. 1:13 military plane in the background |
| Araki, Yoneyama, and Sawano came together for 3 minutes of immaculate anime cinema 👌 |
 |
| I mean, it could've been a girl who crossdresses as a boy in school. That would make sense if it's to hide the idol identity. Not sure if japanese schools would be okay with that tho. |
| Military coup? I'm pretty sure the giant black sphere is an alien object/invasion force, and the idol/guy was drafted to help out the war effort somehow. |
 |
| Wished it was longer but that was so good |
| After PV, I felt that COLORs gives me Yoku vibes. After watching full version this feels increased and now that I looked at Staff and checked Yoneyama Mai's works and I see she worked for Yoku! Well... That explains everything! 😆 If somebody like COLORs I highly recommend Yoku ❤ |
| The song alone was cool and catchy, but what shone the most in this video were absolutely stunning visuals. These colors in COLORs are truly... colorful. :) |

KiryuuAsuka said: the next scene show a boy get introduced to the class. I think in that scene he's taken out from the class because he got drafted in the military. That's why the girl looks so shocked The sign on the blackboard says "Congratulations! Special Cadet"  There's also a scene where's he's working out without the pink wig (if the black hair were the wig, he would not wear it during workout), definitely a boy. |

It's the boy who is working out, you can see the mole :) I think he wears colored contacts when he dresses as the pink-haired girl. His eyes does look browner in the workout scene, but he definitely doesn't have the vibrant green either in the classroom scene or the scene where it transitions from boy to girl version (0:32). |
KiryuuAsuka said: The only scenes that shows the boy is only in class, while the rest throughout the MV is the pink haired girl. Which make me think that the real one is the idol/model pink haired girl, and the boy is only born after the talk with the adult that made her enrolled to the black haired girl's school as a boy with mission as some secret agent to infiltrate the militer/terrorist? (because only boy can have way (higher chance) to join them). And the black haired girl doodling the girl the pink girl then the boy with caption "same person?" which make me think she knows the pink haired girl longer because she idolized her for a long time. So when there is suddenly a boy that resembled her idol, it made her curious. The first adult he's talking with in the cafe is probably his mom or his manager as an idol, they are looking at a time schedule. The other, glasses wearing guy he's talking to, who is also standing in front of the helicopter at the very end, is a goverment guy who drafts her. After that he is taken out from school and transfers to a special branch of the military. He is heading their to join up, wearing his miilitary uniform on the train, when the alien / kaijuu black sphere attacks the city. There are no terrorists in this story. The only thing I'm wondering, why he is asked to join the military as an idol? He will be a poster girl/boy for the war effort, like the sky marshall in Starship Troopers? |

Darianor111 said: He's probably hired by the military as a poster idol, to encourage more people to join up.If you were in the military. Would you crossdressing for a MILITARY operation, or would you still use your normal state? At least I do not think he has any special powers to fight or talent to be a commander. |

Darianor111 said: Poster idol in fight. Oh my, it's so necessary. You have not seen any Macross, I guess. Same thing here. |

| My first impression from "aw she likes her ♥" to "crossdressing?" to "the world is ENDING?!" was so. So. ......Please sir can I have some more? Gagged! I wasn't ready to be pulled in so many directions. So it seems she was first infatuated with a pink beauty. Couldn't get the girl off her mind. Mysteriously, a male classmate has a mole in the same place.. the way she'd recognize her anywhere ;; in the workout scene my mind immediately thought it was a binder lol. Or a sports bra. But yes, interesting gender play. The music and visuals are freakin gorgeous. The depth, the lighting! |
| "Sometimes it takes a real man to become the best girl" (c) Sun Tzu probably |
| I came here because of meme, It takes a real man to become the best girl, indeed |
| Rated 2/10, because this shitty meme somehow won't leave me alone. MFs definitely be projecting themselves into this one, probably why it's so popular atm |
| Incredible visuals/designs, beautiful. |

| @Luigi11Ism he is not a spy, because the blackboard clearly says "congratulations special cadet", so the whole class knows he was drafted, other classmates didn't know he was the idol, only the mc. |

| @CombatMagic From what i'm seeing she's a spy. It's pretty obvious too. It's easy to lie as one. |

| @Luigi11Ism It's a boy that crossdresses as an idol and was drafted into special forces, and the teachers even make the draft as a reason to congratulate him in front of class. Being a spy makes no sense, it also makes no sense that he is a woman because we can literally see him workout with a compression shirt, not a chest binder or a sports bra. |

| @Suginami85 hey that makes sense... So the story is a girl in the guy's class Secretly likes him, he turns into a girl but the girl still recognised him. He was talking to other people what to do with somethings. Got scouted in the military as they knew a kaiju attack was going to happen soon, as they picked up radiation singnals beforehand. To join the military he worked out a bit and trained. At last when the attack happened the girl confessed to him and said she still accepts him as he is, he kissed the girl in the forehead saying wait for me (or not). And that's the end. Wow finally figured out the story, and that's the best explanation I can come up with. Just the only one thing, why did he turn into a girl in the first place, he didn't like being boy or something else and why would the military allow that! |
