Man, do I ever have mixed feelings about this one. On the one hand, it’s still a fun idol rock song:

And the setting of the video is a VR-driven hallucination of Haruka’s, so that’s neat.

On the other, I miss the Party Rockets that banged out things like “Kasabuta” and “Miriae” and sounded like the damn future.

I’m not going to blame anybody, especially not somebody on a major label, for dropping a summer single, especially not one putting their own spin on the concept. It’s just, you used to rock, Party Rockets. This sucker’s coming out on July 20; if we’ve learned anything, it’s that there’s always hope on the B-side.
