It is obvious why they chose actresses who look like that - that is how people like Matsuda Seiko and the other 80s stars actually looked on their album covers... back when snaggleteeth were the rage, poofy hair dominated, and no one was able to get plastic surgery on their eyes.. The shots look like perfect recreations of old-school vinyl covers for idol albums. Amen, very glad to see Denki Groove back in action!

But with all the relatively cute struggling actresses out there, they seemed to go out of their way to really not use "traditionally attractive" types.

Can you imagine the ad? "Wanted - plain girls for 80s idol homage music video." Can't stop watching the video though, it's so catchy!
