Idol

Literal visual eye candy. Every second is a blast to watch, and every beat of the song is entrancing and sparkling (much like the titular character Ai Hoshino). A must-watch for Yoasobi fans, AMV [Animated Music Video] fans, and "Oshi no Ko fans"! There's something for everybody in this music video, and the 23+ million views on YouTube (as of April 20th, 2023) are much deserved. I can't wait to see what else both Yoasobi and "Oshi no Ko" have in store for the anime and music worlds!

The flashiness was the only aspect of the music video that may be off-putting to some viewers.

A nice AMV, but nothing to listen to on repeat for 13 hours a day.

The visuals are top-notch, and every scene seems animated with love and affection. On top of that, many of them show some hidden meaning and convey the soul of the story pretty well, so there is not much to discuss there.
Now, it is the music what brings me conflicted feelings. In its base is a mixture of jpop with some rap-ish segments which do the job of not making it feel repetitive and hype up the chorus part; however, if you are a strong rap detractor like me, these kill the ... vibes of the whole song and make it harder to relisten to. Other than that, the song has a (very) catchy chorus and well-done high vocals (sasuga Yoasobi) so you should definitely give it a try.

In the end, as with most things anime, it depends on your taste.

I have watched the MV "Idol" and I must say, the animation is incredibly generic and uninspired. The movements of the characters lack creativity and the overall visuals do not stand out at all. I have seen better animation from underground authors with no real budget.

As for the music, I won't comment much on it as it sounds incredibly generic and lacks any real originality. The overall production is a complete goyslop, and I cannot say that I am impressed by it at all. It's unfortunate to see such a lack of creativity and originality in the anime industry these days.

Regarding YAOISOBI, I must say ... that their music is not to my personal taste. In fact, I find their music to be quite brain-damaging and lacking in artistic merit. However, I understand that taste in music is subjective, and what may not appeal to me may be loved by others. Ultimately, it's up to each individual to decide whether or not they enjoy YAOISOBI's music.
