The third team song from NMB48’s latest single (check here for Team M and Team B translations) is Team N’s がっつきガールズ (gattsuki GAARUZU / Greedy Girls). It’s upbeat and summery, so I guess it’s a good contrast to the previous two Ota Yuuri centers (the fluffy 職務質問 and the black leather 焼け木杭).

I’m not sure I’d peg the current Team N as the “Greedy Girls”, though I guess just calling them the “ambitious girls” doesn’t have quite the same ring to it. Well, also, outside of Yuuri, Murase Sae, and Yoshida Akari, I don’t really know the Team N members. I will compliment NMB’s wardrobe department again, as the casual clothes across all three team videos are really good.

I kinda like their yellow font at the end, but I’m not quite ready to try using it across the whole video….

The full versions of all five MVs from this single are available on NMB’s YouTube channel, so go check them out!
