Reflect

The Hololive ladies are many things but they most often than not forget that they are idols. Gura herself in a past life was a Meme Queen and dropped plenty of bangers left right and center, Reflect is no different.

While the song isn't really to my taste the video itself is godly so easily raises what is otherwise an okay song in my books to a different level entirely. Gotta give it to the EN ladies and Hololive in general, they can hold a note no matter what language they're speaking. No matter the age they hit different every time.

The song itself is great, no doubt about it. However, there are two parts to music video – the music… and the video.

Unfortunately, the video is not that great in this case. It consists mostly of 3D rendered background, or still images with added effects. The animation level is just above of picture drama. I also feel like the video sometimes doesn’t fit the audio that well, like in the faster parts of the song, the pictures are still going at pretty much the same pace.

The lyrics are fine. Not on the level of Mori’s songs, but not meaningless either. The inclusion of ... Greek portion also gives it a nice flavour.

So, as a good song paired with average video, I can’t really give this more than score of “fine”. The song really is catchy though.

Reflect is basically a song about Gawr Gura and her "other self." I couldn't really find anything to love/like about this song. Sometimes the English felt a bit off, and the animation was pretty lazy, with both Gawr Guras barely moving. Every few seconds was basically images that were slowly zooming in and moving onto another... while this doesn't happen for all scenes, this was often shown. The sound was pretty decent, it was simple and I couldn't find anything good about it. It was fine. The character part is one problem here. I often cringed at both of the Gawr Guras. Sometimes I would ... feel like vomiting at points.
And for the second last part, I didn't really enjoy this much. There were only a few scenes that looked pretty nice and fresh
4/10 The song is good but English is sometimes off, and the song was just bad overall. I couldn't find anything to really like about this music video.
