BOYFRIEND - Hitomi no Melody

                                                              Detective Conan ED 44

Tracklist:

1. Hitomi no Melody
2. TO MOON


1. Hitomi no Melody

At first I thought there was a Japanese band called Boyfriend... but it seems that Korean artists are slowly making it into every pore of Japanese music, as this is the well-known Korean boyband.
Anyways, their new song is one of the usual happy, love songs, which is are becoming somewhat boring. Though, it is spring, and the arrangement fits that with a heavier use of piano and some whispy synths. Their voices are, of course, unnimpresive as most other factory-made boybands, but at least the raps are mostly enjoyable. For a high profile anime like Detective Conan (I mean, it is its fourthy-fourth ending song), I am not very pleased.
Rating: 5

2. TO MOON

 The B-side is a bit more interesting, with a mix of an electronic composition with the dance beat of K-pop. The synths are used in a cuteish and funny way, but then again, this track is almost the exact same as Hitomi no Melody, boring and average, that is. I guess some people like music like this, but I can't bring myself to listen to this for more then 2 minutes and not get sleepy.
Rating: 6


Wow, such a fail after an awesome song like Janus. I don't mind when groups like this do this in Korea, because I know most everything there is alike to it. But, I do mind when someone begins to ruin an unique genre anisong is. My overall rating for this release is: 6.
