AKB48's 22nd single [Flying Get] covers and preview have been released. The members featured were elected in the 3rd general senbatsu election and just in case anyone didn't know their positions, their rankings are actually printed on their arms.
TYPE A and B feature media senbatsu. Theater edition feature lower senbatsu with Maeda Atsuko and Oshima Yuko. I'll admit that I'm not a fan of these covers. The gold costumes aren't really doing anything and the TYPE A and theater covers would be so much better if they were better designed. What is wrong with Matsui Rena's face? Why is Shinoda Mariko in a hairstyle normally reserved for lolita Oota Aika? And why are the male actors on the covers too? I suppose the designers had extra space left over after trying to distribute 21 members across 3 covers and decided to stick them on too?
What the covers lack, the PV previews make up for it. Going back to River and Beginner, we see our girls dressed in Chinese inspired outfits swinging their weapons with lightsaber-like effects. Unlike Heavy Rotation, lower senbatsu is visible throughout the PV preview. So for all of us who voted for #13-21, we're in luck this time.
We will be graced with a 18 minute long PV, a short movie in itself that follows a dramatic fight between senbatsu and a rival group of male fighters who challenge them. However the true fight is with their challengers, but within themselves. In order to not spoil the rest, please watch the preview and prepare to open your wallet.
Flying Get will release 4 weeks from now on August 24th 2011.
