There are two versions of Ai one is how she feels from inside or you can say real her on the other hand the second is how she is to the world , outer self/ fake self. And yeah in the japanese version of this song it's completely on different level fully engaging and mind blowing that's why it's become first anime op reaching 100 millions Fastest (34-35 day's ) this season is full of wonderful OP as you mentioned like skip and Loafer, hells paradise, heavenly Delusions, The Legendary hero is dead, i got a cheat skill in another world and become unrivalled in the real world too ( guilty Pleasures) and oshi no ko on top of all ❤️.

While the lyrics are largely unchanged you should try to listen to the Japanese version with subtitles. The lyrics are absolute gold, there are things like her calling herself Maria which may be a parallel to Mary. Moreover Maria is said to mean "star of the sea," "rebellion," "bitter sea," and "drop of the sea." Maria is also associated with the meaning "beloved" and "wished for child". Plus there’s details like the choir says “you’re my saviour, my saving grace”

Sorry for commenting so many times in succession but yeah I’m commenting as I watch so…ANYWAY I digress. Mahou Shoujou Magical Destroyers has one of the craziest openings I’ve ever seen and even the ending is a nice vibe. (They were definitely high when they were making that anime)

Rabbit in Japanese = Usagi For the word "sagi", it also means 詐欺 (to lie) in Japanese. This means, AI wearing a rabbit costume on the stage - covering in lies/to lie At last, she can finally put down the rabbit mask and say out her words without lying anymore. AISHITERU❤

One cool thing about the visuals is the bunny costume. In Japanese, you can spell bunny as "Usagi" which is close to Lie ("Uso"), so in the beginning Ai is covered in lies, while in the end she finally manages to break free of it to say a sincere "I love you".

私は多くの外国人のリアクションを見ました。 この曲はアニメを見た後に歌詞の意味が分かって初めて本当の魅力を発揮すると思います。 あなたに6:30と7:28の表情をさせたことで英語版は作られた意味があったでしょう。 ナイスリアクション!!

For us YOASOBI fans, an English version is not to be compared to the original over which one is better to listen to. Because its obvious the japanese version flows naturally into your ears. But for YOASOBI, they are able to translate words and sounds to match and flow together so you get to hear Ikura flex her ENGLISH ( which gets better every time and we are so proud of her progress over the years ) and still sound similar to the Japanese words so it becomes a mini game to go back and look at which parts are GENIUSLY translated. Also, Ikura rapping in ENGLISH is something we need more

The way they got “Daremo ga” and “That emotion” to go so perfectly in line scratched my brain just right

„Idol“ is not just a great song it’s addiction… but one you didn’t want to break with!❤

Anyone: "Wow this English version is good!" Sub watchers: "Allow us to introduce ourselves"

Thank you for these reaction video!

There really are a lot of great openings this season, but this one, Hell’s Paradise, Edens Zero, Demon Slayer, and probably a few others that don’t come to mind are ones that I wouldn’t skip even if I were in a hurry. Some of the endings as well. Which is why I hope that nothing interferes with my anime time. At the very least, I can always listen to the songs I’ve already downloaded.

Actually the first episode running in the theater played full version Idol at the end.

I've heard that Yoasobi does this a lot - and that's release official versions of their songs with English lyrics. And I'm guessing it was released yesterday or today because the English dub of Oshi no Ko started streaming today, and while I haven't watched it yet (I'll eventually get around to it) so I can't confirm, but I've heard this version of the OP will be attached to the English dub.

I'm Indonesian, hearing the original Japanese version without knowing what's the lyrics means just make me feels "this song is good" But when there's someone translyric this song in Indonesian (kzread.info/dash/bejne/dYB90pltaNzXp5s.html&feature=share8), I'm actually crying Damn that episode 1 of Oshi no Ko 😂

日本語と英語の両方のバージョンを聴いている者として、韻の踏み方とか、日本語の歌詞の意味に限りなく近づけている点が、非常に素晴らしいと思いました。

I think checking out the short anime version with lyrics would be great too. The lyrics with the visuals are insane

Thought the day would never come where Joe could do a music reaction

Just the best intro ever any praise to it in this world is not enough. The animation symbolism the beats

The song is pretty much the whole story of ai in summary Also the English version 😆 amalee now won't need to do much works when she release a version 😂

「愛してる」でアッ……てなるとこ好きです(笑)

It sometimes took me 1 hour to finish an episode of Oshi no ko because I always find myself repeating the OP. haha!

YOASOBIの凄いところは英語でも日本語に聞こえるとこだ。 でも日本語が1番気持ちいい とりあえず日本人でよかったです

Thanks for the reaction

The song is based on a short story written by Kaguya author Aka Akadaka who also writes Oshi no Ko . It is written in the pov of a former member of B-Komachi Ai was the leader. It is about her feelings towards Ai. The short story is titled 45510 which is also a reference to Oshi no Ko.

Otaku elf op is another one this season that’s incredibly good , this season really is giving us great openings

I suggest you to hear "Survive" song of Myndarin from "why Raeliana ended up at Duke's mansion".

日本語で失礼します素晴らしいリアクションありがとうm(_ _)m

Well now that's a first for Joe, after memeing so much that it was just gonna be him vibing while the music was muted 😂

In Japan, the comic serialization of "Oshi no Ko" continues to run for over 140 episodes, and recently released episodes have revealed that the two Ai in the opening and middle of this animation are Ai on one side, but the other was Ruby, who played the Ai in the past. The lyrics of this song trace back to Episode 1, but the animation was made to preview the story over 100 episodes later, which is really amazing!

2:44 most of YOASOBI's songs are like that xD Good vibes + Sad lyrics

The last part I Love You is heartbreaking 😭😭😭😭

7:05 残念だったな、これはもはや聴く一話だ。 最高のリアクションをありがとう。

Both versions such a vibe fr fr. 🔥

I downloaded the song by episode 3, just off of the opening. So, the rest of the song was a pleasant surprise.

日本人の僕達と、同じ箇所の同じフレーズで、同じ表情になってくれて嬉しいよ😂 「やっと言えた、これは絶対嘘じゃない、愛してる」

Japanese idols are often treated as sacred beings. For example, they never go to the bathroom or have never had a boyfriend. That's why I think they have to pretend to be their true selves and stand in front of the camera. I think it's a song that expresses Japanese idol culture well :)

Well, now that you've reacted to the full version of the OP, you just gotta see the full version of the ED now

I did expect Ikura Chan to be so fluent in English 😳😳 and it really feels like the Japanese version

This song is like the song "Hey, ya!", Happy tune but sad lyrics

12:19 people imitating how the songs sound is the funniest thing ever, I watched like 10 videos reacting to this song

2:38 You just described all of Yoasobi's songs

I reach bro , with that first episode oshi no ko anime being so much emotional

"Ah.. i can finally say it.. sorry for being so late.. *i love you* " At that moment, my heart just dies

The main concept of "YOASOBI" music unit is to "make music from novels. Therefore, all of their songs are based on novels. The group created the song "Idol" based on "Oshi-no-Ko". Despite the dark melody and sad lyrics, the bright voice of vocalist "ikura" makes this song an even better song. I think that. :)

The best ops of the season are this, Vinland saga, and magical destroyers

BEST ANIME IN WHOLE MULTIVERSE HISTORY

Ay the Op of "The Legendary Hero is Dead" is a banger too tho

The song is based on 45510 the password for Ai's phone which is also the name of a short story that was relased for the anime about one of the former B Komachi members reflecting on Ai

In Jungian psychology there is the persona and the shadow. The persona is that part of yourself that you express to others and how you want people to see you ass. The shadow is the part of yourself that you suppress subconsciously and hide from people (this is what the Persona games based themselves on) That’s what the 2 sides of Ai are, her shadow and her persona.

The last part of both song Is ai telling her childrens she loves them The same line she said before dying And I always hear rie rie dying message wahaha 😢

I see you have Dai Dark on your shelf... huge respect for liking anything Q Hayashida has ever done tbh.

YOASOBI secretly the rage against the machine of Japan! Lol hell running in the night is a stab at working conditions leading to depression loneliness and sometimes suicide… YOASOBI and ado need to get together and do a real rage against the machine style song lol

11:31 This frame making Ai looks crazy is the weirdest frame of the video. It gives me chills.

Oh, and I agree with you that “Work,” Hell’s Paradise’s OP is awesome too. I love Sheena Ringo. The full version is so great. “Innocent Arrogance,” the OP of Heavenly Delusion, by BiSH is good too. I haven’t heard the Vinland Saga OP as I haven’t seen that anime.

The ai we see throughout the 1st episode is just the mask she uses to hide her true self. The only instances we see the 'real' ai was her inner dialogue and death scene. She uses her charisma and lies for masking so much that, if you read 45510 short story you'll see that even her bandmate who was jealous of her didn't accept the imperfect ai which leads to the words in the rap part of the song
