10- 15.80 HAN-KUN – TOUCH THE SKY

Now the ninki ranking don’t actually indicate how well a group will do come release day, but they are an interesting guide point. For a song that has had no PV and no commercial play it is quite interesting to see it ranking this high on the ninki charts. Hope everyone has their preorders in cause they might stand a good chance at charting in the top 10 again with this one!!

“Tokyo Joshizukan” EP1 on YT & Translation Summary

Tokyo Joshizukan EP1
The beginning song is HALCALI’s version of ” MY SWEET DARLIN’ “” which features Hitomi Yaida herself in the song as well.

Translation Summary
HALCALI interview a “rebel racer” Mika Kagoshima, a race car driver and model. Mika brings with her her helmet that she always wears. Halca smells it because she is ridiculous and believes anything Yucali says. They ask why she is a racer and Mika says it’s because her father was also one. Therefore racing is her primary job and being a model is more like her hobby or side-job.
Yucali then asks her in addition to being rebel racer, if she is a rebel in general. Yucali says she wants to be a rebel, and Halca says “Wait- you want to be told ‘man, you’re such a rebel’?” and Yucali is like “Kinda cool, right?” Mika then suggests that being a “rebel” is something that never ends, like an evil person.
They then talk about Mika’s future dreams.
At the very end they take Mika’s picture and Halca says “We were deceived by a the unassuming look of a rebel today.” Yucali: “Yeah, we were. Next time, we should try to deceive others, too.” Halca: “wtf wut.”
