Take me to Wimbledon

It’s not just about the sporty vibe.

Of course, we haven’t forgotten the classic idol cuteness either.

This song best showcases the innate talent plus effort-driven idol qualities of these three—Yuria, Kuumin, and Dasu.

If Kuumin sang it to me, I might even start playing tennis.

No Sleeves’ songs go perfectly with Churi.

I can’t take my eyes off her singing, dancing, and expressions.

Somehow, they seem to suit her slightly tsundere vibe.

It’s also a wonderful track showcasing Matsurina’s skillful performance.

I learned about Yui Matsushita from this video.

The visual balance of the three is excellent, and above all, Rena Matsui’s charm really shines.

Just having Masanya and Rena-chan—both delicate beauties—standing side by side is enough.

It leaves you feeling like you’ve watched a quality film.

First, the PV begins with two “anglers” staring intently.

Aya Shibata-chan became a hot topic in the election, so many people probably know her, but her pulling power is incredible.

Another highlight is Ume-chan’s clarity, who has been leading Team E.

Even if they’re not the center, there are people who need to be right by the side.

In SKE, this is especially true for Mikitty, Matsurina, Reikatsun, and Riri.

It’s precisely because these four are there that Kuumin’s center position shines.

It also perfectly fits the image of a fighting girl.

It’s not flashy.

There’s none of SKE’s signature intense dancing.

But the girls’ purity and that unmistakable feeling of summer vacation are captured beautifully.

With my favorite members—Rina Matsumoto (Matsurina), Shiori Ogiso (Shiorin), and Mana Oya (Masanya)—all together, it’s simply unmissable.

Defense of AffectionSKE48

2010-11-27 Rena Matsui’s “Affection’s Defence”

There’s no other video that captures, in under three minutes, girls this beautiful dancing and singing.

Rena Matsui—now active as an actress—has a baby’s-breath-like delicacy and understated allure; Matsurina radiates a fleeting, ethereal beauty; and Shiorin’s visuals are overwhelmingly stunning.

It’s breathtaking.
