HKT48 have released the short version of their Alice in Wonderland-themed MV for “12 Byo” (release date: April 22).

The video was directed by Eiki Takahashi, who has previously directed the videos for HKT’s “Otona Ressha” as well as AKB48’s “Iiwake Maybe”, “Ponytail to Shushu”, “Ue Kara Mariko”, etc. This may be why the Alice in Wonderland theme was selected, to re-use the tiny room from “Ue Kara Mariko”? While this is only the short version showing the beginning of the story, expect there to be a lot more fantastic scenes in the full version!

“12 byo” will be released in Type-A, Type-B, and Type-C CD & DVD versions. The coupling song for all versions is “Rock da yo, Jinsei wa….” which is a cover of the Himawarigumi 2nd stage song, and is often performed by HKT48 live. The Type-A exclusive track is “Hohoemi Popcorn” which will be performed by a unit made up of the 3rd generation members called “Popcorn Children”. The Type-B exclusive track is by Team H and is titled “Chameleon Joshikousei”. The Type-C exclusive track is by Team KIV and is titled “Hawaii he Yukou”. The DVD for Type-A includes the MVs for the 3 songs on the CD and the Type-A version of “HKT’s KITCHEN”. The DVD for Type-B includes the MVs for “12 byo” and “Chameleon Joshikousei” and the Type-B version of “HKT’s KITCHEN”. The DVD for Type-C included the MVs for “12 byo” and “Hawaii he Yukou” and the Type-C version of “HKT’s KITCHEN”.
