30 July - Updated with Heavy Rotation PV, Lucky Seven PV preview What else can I say. WANTS. MEGA WANTS!!!! Radio rips of both Heavy Rotation and Namida no Seesaw Game have been released. Links below the jump. I don't really like Heavy Rotation. Only the chorus part, the rest is . . . . . And for the PV. I don't know what to say. I want that kissing scene (above image) of Acchan and Yuko. But most of the rest of the PV is looking disappointing. I hope my mind will change when the full PV is out. OHH MAA GAWD!!!!! The kiss scene made it in!!!!! This has got to be the most fanservice ever...

17 July: Updated with PVNo3b will be starring in a LISMO mini Mobile Drama, called [Kotodama no Onnatachi] (言霊の女たち) which translates to Women of the Power of Language. The theme song for the drama is no3b’s upcoming 5th single, [Kimishika] (Only you).Women of the Power of Language sounds like a strange title, but from the trailer (after the jump), you can probably understand why. The three girls are seen doing calligraphy in the drama. I think it should be one of the more important points in the plot because of the title.Its a mobile drama which means that it is only for Japanese Mobile phones....
