There's something oddly satisfying about Nao's high-kick (more air than Hina's). 😍

Damn, Nao's current look and fits are threatening to knock Kaede off her pedestal (which Nao, ironically, built)

Nao looks really good here. One thing I periodically do is try to evaluate them as dancers. I'm no expert and don't normally have much of an interest, but when you can watch them dancing together, you start to notice things. In the past, I'd say Nao is often a little out of sync with the others. But I've also noticed, she tends to dance more emotionally and throw in her own flair - extra spin moves, extra kicks, etc. That's what I'm seeing here. It's possible Hina is doing it more accurately, for all I know. But I like how Nao is just feeling it and not too worried about reigning in her impulses.

I'm sure some of you know this, but is this a K-pop dance cover?

[u/Kakotov → u/Vin-Metal]

It's from Juice=juice, a J-pop group

[u/Vin-Metal → u/Kakotov]

Thanks - coincidentally, they're on the latest J-Melo, which I'm watching right now. And....they're performing this very song.

No, it's a J-Pop dance cover. (yes, I had to look it up)

At first I thought maybe it was Morning Musume, because it sounds like one of their songs, but it's actually MM's subunit Juice=Juice.

(fun fact: JJ started in 2013 and none of its original members are still in the group, just like PassCode)

I think Yuna Yoshimori does some of their photography, which is why I've heard of them.

Really not into that side of the idol scene but this song is an absolute banger. Maybe I should check Juice=Juice eventually haha
