Right? It's the washed out colors, warm amber tones from scrolling lights, large public entertainment spaces, community, what it feels like, and for a brief moment fall into the illusion of a wondrous past as if it were right there within reach, to just touch all those familiar things you see or smell the air. It would be astounding to mingle in public with total strangers again, a world yet unhindered by quarantines, social media and developmental issues as a result of their environment.

So true. :( like she sacrificed a piece of her youth for this thing. :(
This I think is one of the first times I ever cried watching a Music Video. For about 7 months, I was laid off, and it was a struggle to find work. As I saw my peers continue to blossom in their careers, I was finding myself going through countless rejections, pausing a lot of my life, and becoming extremely discouraged that I was even able to work in my field of interest in the first place. I felt like an impostor, that I was just lucky with my previous job and that I'd never get a chance anywhere else ever. I was waiting for someone to reach out, and it felt like that moment would never come. Nisemono and the EP as a whole did a lot to help me heal and keep my head up. As I kept trying for opportunities, sought out resources, and just tried to take care of myself, I would have this song helping me walk through getting over the feelings of being an impostor, and to just do my best and keep going. Seeing the Music Video... With Amaiwana performing amazingly as Kimiko going through similar moments of being alone while the world kept moving, trying and trying again with agencies, and ESPECIALLY waiting by the phone just for anything, the visuals have added a whole new level of connecting to this song and sharing that experience of displacement. I was seeing myself in Kimiko's struggle. While I'm thankful I'm not in that situation anymore and am settling into a new, more positive change, Nisemono as a whole has been such a personal journey that Cameron has shared with many and one that I'm grateful to have experienced through his craft. My own Nisemono chapter that I was in has been best bookmarked through the sounds and scenes of the EP, and so I'm thankful to have had something to connect to. I cannot wait for what amazing stories and experiences Cameron will share with his team and us in the near future! Congratulations on another amazing story, and genuinely thank you for helping me get through such a difficult time!

So what I'm getting from this whole album is basically: Kimiko was this big star who didn't like the fame, which then big man Ginger Root took her job since the manager needed someone to perform, and he wrote the song. And now that she sees him with all this attention and fame, she feels jealous and wants that stardom back. But turns out, Ginger Root doesn't like the attention after all (as seen in "over the hill"). Now what I am guessing is that both Ginger Root and Kimiko are gonna team up and make a song together. Mending the bond, in a way.
As a musician myself, I’ve got to say I dig this song a lot! It sounds super retro, yet futuristic at the same time with the effects used to make it sound this way in the final recording. I’m also incredibly fascinated by how subversive and unexpected the changes in chord arrangements, harmonies, and melodies get as this song progresses onward to the end. Kinda reminds me of the songs on Captain Beyond’s first album in that regard. So yeah, I’d say I’m a new fan!

I remember that when we get addicted to watching TV series, we get overly attached to some characters and develop hate towards other characters. This parasocial feeling that people hating on Kimiko-chan adds up to the appeal of this whole GR saga lol They did well producing this dramatic atmosphere.

Getting to see Kimiko's side of the story is great, and the whole Nisemono saga is so compelling. The combination of song and video really stir up an intense sense of melancholy and regret - the colour grading especially. Phenomenal video, can't wait to see where the story goes next!

Although cameras can record high quality and high frame rate already back then, TVs aren't able to show this quality due to hardware and broadcasting limitations compared to now. I like that is used to visualize Kimiko's career, where the ones with low frame rate and video quality are the moments she was stil in the business, and the ones with high video quality and frame rate are the moments she was out. Neat detail.
this is the most amazing ep marketing i've ever seen.
