Z CLEAR // サイン (Sain): I’d rather love than be loved

After the release of their single “広島” (Hiroshima) in late December of 2024, Z CLEAR have released not one, but two new singles: “ぶちROCK” (Buchi ROCK) in April and “サイン” (Sain) in July. That last one is a one-track digital single, but does come with a music video.

“広島” (Hiroshima) already had a strong power of attraction, but this new single is definitely a sign that the group is on to something! It’s power attracted 雪 (Yuki) once more, so she took a closer look at the single and accompanying MV, and is ready to tell you all about it in this review.

NETH PRIERE CAIN’s single “神の啓示、月光の聖女” (Kami no Keiji, Gekkou no Seijo) may have been released in February of this year already, but the single tells an interesting story of contrast that we do want to share with you.

DEVILOOF // Devil’s Calling/Angel’s Cry: The story of love that I vow to die for
