Happy Thanksgiving! + Kamonegix Full Dance Video

Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian readers! :D

So, lack of motivation has caused me to not blog in the past 2 months. @.@ I am slowly getting back into the groove of blogging, so be prepared for some AKB0048 episode reviews. I have other blog post ideas in the works, which will be more on the informative side like my Idol Auditions in Japan post. 

Lately, I have been thinking about what dances to cover. I pick a song, and then download all the videos I can find, but not one video is good enough to follow (unless you are watching dance shot versions from Hello! Project groups). Watching 4 different videos 20 times to learn a dance is very time-consuming and slightly annoying. 

As I have been really into NMB48's latest single "Kamonegix" (カモネギックス), I decided to make a video focusing on the dance to simplify the life of anyone who was planning on covering it, but could not find a good reference video. There is a "Dancing Version MV" of this song, but I think the editor got way too fancy with how many camera angles they had. Using 3 different camera angles in the span of 2 seconds is unnecessary and does not particularly help those learning the dance. 

Without further ado, here is the full dance version of NMB48's "Kamonegix":
