Uuh... To be honest this kind of songs aren't my cup of tea. In general Aikatsu handles those types of songs pretty well and after listening a few times to them i end up loving those. But in this case... i think the "fluffy" side of the song is too strong which makes me wanna sleep. I know this is pretty ironic since the theme of the brand is basically dreams but i don't think it should have this much of a "soft" tone to it. In my opinion it made it boring to listen which is a big let down because i literally liked everything else about it. The pastel colors of the stage and dress, the character design of Kirara, the theme of the brand, the lyrics and the song title. What i mean is that it had the potential to be "almost perfect" but didn't. I don't know if it's because of the slow melody of the song or the really sweet voice of the singer (Miho) but this song really was "meh"-ish. (Oh, and i also didn't like the dance but this applies to almost every dance in aikatsu stars, why did they make them so repetitive and slow? Was it for the audience so they can dance to it easily?) I'm pretty sure if i listen to it a bunch of more times it'll end up being "ok". But as far as it goes it's probably my least favorite from the new season. The thing that i like the most is the title for some reason. The japanese version of it has a stronger "feel" to it than the english one tough. I may be wrong but i think "Onegai" can also be used as "i beg of you!" In this case i do think that the correct translation is "please" but just repeating "i beg of you Mary" in my head gives me chills and the lyrics doesn't help. They're obviously making us understand that this "Mary" (the lamb) is someone very important and we would like to stay friends with him forever. (Is this a sort of metaphor by the way? The girl meets the lamb every night in her dreams so Mary represents dreams and our will to stay with her represents us who would like to keep our dreams forever even if we grow up and become adults, so like... dreaming forever even if we know it's impossible to achieve them by the time we're old?) Hahaha... i think i'm going too deep.
