AKB48’s latest single is titled “Halloween Night”. The single is centered by Sashihara Rino who won the 7th AKB48 General Election. In line with the theme, the top 16 members from the election wore Halloween costumes and special makeup.
The short version of the music video and covers for the single have been released. The PV was directed by Seki Kabuki. The makeup was done by JIRO, one of the top 10 notable artists in the world for ‘Make-up Artist Magazine’. The video and tune of the song takes you back to to the golden age of disco, with the music video employing extras who danced disco during the ’70s and ’80s. Papaya Suzuki, who choreographed “Koisuru Fortune Cookie” is again in charge for this song.
Included in the single is the song “Yankee Machine Gun”, used as the opening theme for the drama “Majisuka Gakuen 5” while the song “Gunzou” was used as its ending theme.
