What Is the Song "Kitagawa Kenji" About?
As usual, when analyzing single songs it is critical for people to know of any added significance for these songs besides the fact that they are just songs that are sung by a certain group. The song is about once again…yes it is about love and it revolves around a girl being very jealous of the guy that one of her friends happens to be dating. She is so deeply jealous that she is not able to tolerate this reality. If he (the man Kitagawa Kenji) comes within her view, she will fight for the sake of love. She tells her friend that he is not the one that will make her happy. However, love should not be treated as a competition. Here in 2019, Kitagawa Kenji is a better song than I have realized!
What Happens in the Music Video for Kitagawa Kenji?
In terms of the choreography for the video itself, Kitagawa Kenji takes place in a high school where Yamamoto and Watanabe are seen acting and role playing as students who are working on mathematical equations on the chalkboard. Meanwhile, the other students are sitting at their desks as a plane is heard flying by. The teacher is impressed and or shocked at the discovery that he makes about one of the answers written by one of the students. The scene shifts back and forth between the high school and the area where the girls are dressed in their usual idol uniforms and they are dancing.
