(...) A new Japanese act debuting this week is hoping to become the biggest girl group in the universe.
The group’s name is SG5, and the five members are an IRL, musical take on the characters from the popular anime series, Sailor Moon. Spawning from the Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon world, SG5 (“Sailor Guardians 5”) call themselves an “intergalactic pop supergroup that protects the universe from evil, injustice and negativity.” Their superpower: music, of course.
The five members all came up in the J-pop (Japanese pop) industry: Sayaka, Ruri, Miyuu and Kaede were previously part of the group Happiness, which debuted in 2011, while Rui came from the trio iScream, which debuted in 2021 and recently released their debut album.

iScream - Meant To Be Together (Lyrics + Translation)
Original:
Wow, wow, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
We got this!
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on) oh, oh
最初からきっと 感じてたこと
That we're something special
煌めく瞳 like a star
いつも探している 特別な feeling 心の奥
You and I 何もかも
Feel alright (feel alright)
一人ならきっと できないことも
君となら叶えられるよね
どんなにさみしい夜でも 終わりのない道程でも
君がくれた勇気があれば
I just keep my head up, up, up
繋いだ手は 離さないで so tight
いま 輝く時なの
いつまでも同じ夢を見よう
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
出会った あの頃と同じ so right
時代 切り開く brand new world
心のトキメキ 確かめて
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
We keep dreaming on
最近はもっと 感じてること
That we're so much different
お互いをもっと知るうちに
違いは強さになる
一人じゃない 'cause I'll be by your side
悔しさ分けあった日も 涙した帰り道も
君がいたから 強くなれた
So let's keep our head up, up, up
重ねた日々 照らすような sky light
つなぐメロディー just sing along
変わらない思い抱きしめて
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
明日には 違う景色 so fine
いま 駆け抜ける brand new world
新しい自分を手に入れて
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
We keep dreaming on
どんな未来かなんて 誰も知らない
一緒なら行ける wherever
たったひとつ わかっていることは
そう we're meant to be, oh, oh
繋いだ手は 離さないで so tight
いま 輝く時なの
いつまでも同じ夢を見よう
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
出会ったあの頃と同じ so right
時代切り開く brand new world
心のトキメキ 確かめて
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
We keep dreaming on
oh
oh
Translation:
Wow, wow, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
We got this!
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on) oh, oh
I’m sure you felt it from the beginning
That we're something special
Twinkling eyes like a star
Always looking for that special feeling deep inside my heart
You and I, anything and everything
Feel alright (feel alright)
I’m sure there are things I can’t do on my own
I can make them happen with you
No matter how lonely the night, no matter how endless the journey
If only I had the courage you gave me
I just keep my head up, up, up
Don’t let go of my hand, so tight
It’s time to shine
Let’s dream the same dream forever
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
Just like when we first met, so right
Opening up an era, brand new world
Make sure your heart is beating fast
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
We keep dreaming on
I’ve been feeling it a lot lately
That we're so much different
As we get to know each other better
Our difference is our strength
You’re not alone 'cause I'll be by your side
The days when we shared our frustrations, and the way back home when we cried
You made me stronger.
So let's keep our head up, up, up
Like illuminating the repeated days, sky light
Connecting melody, just sing along
Hold on to your unchanging thoughts
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
Tomorrow it will be different, so fine
Now I’m running through a brand new world
Find a new self
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
We keep dreaming on
No one knows what the future holds
We can go together, wherever
The only thing I know is
That’s right, we're meant to be, oh, oh
Don’t let go of my hand, so tight
It’s time to shine
Let’s dream the same dream forever
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
Just like when we first met, so right
Opening up an era, brand new world
Make sure your heart is beating fast
(Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming on)
We keep dreaming on
oh
oh

bc of my idol spinterest i am quite fond of when jpop starts referencing kpop or the other way around i just think theres a point where it starts feeling more like youre trying to make money off a trend (this is with jpop referencing kpop in specific) rather than just like an Homage and it starts being deeply annoying to look at
i think a good example of doing it in a way thats Right is probably shhis bc their music is #1 good(for the most part fuck oh my god) #2 its not limited to just that one specific genre of terrible fucking edm #3 listening to their music you can pinpoint their influences and these choices that are made feel like theyre done by people that actually know what theyre doing. fly and flys intro being most likely a reference to after schools bang is so COOL to me because not only does imas actually have connections to after school (one of the members being on imas kr) but also referencing something as old as that feels like an actual appreciation rather than just a money grab compares to like oh my god just being a worse version of aespas black mamba
i need to edit this to include Motto which is essentially just a twice homage with the choreography referencing twice choreos and the mv having a location quite similar to one in the likey mv(iirc) and the song being so distinctly early twice that when i heard it for the first time my brain automatically put the TWICE! in the intro. and also idolish7s poisonous gangster which i dont actually care a lot for that song but its made by someone who worked with shinee in the past and the song is very obviously inspired by THE SHINEE WORLD DOO BOP out of all songs and its really fuckig funny to me
on the other hand theres like countless examples both in real and multimedia idols that are either Objectively good but have that distinct Youre trying to make money off of me feel (eg enstars' ruby love which if you listen to it its very obviously meant to be kpop inspired and is made by someone who has worked with nct but also it leaves me with a weird taste in my mouth bc it feels like You Are Trying Really Hard To Market To Me) (or like ldhs iscream whose music i really enjoy but it still leaves me with a weird feel) or the worst outcome which is Terrible song AND youre trying so fucking hard to market to me (48gs trying to do kpop inspired singles, criminally dinner, that one love live song i forgot its name for some reason my bad, etcetc theres way more im too lazy to think of them right now)
also like deresute doing the sheincore kpop gg outfits for fav+rica even though 1 of these characters dresses in decora kei and another is a FARM GIRL still pisses me off so bad like are you insane
