"愛とか恋とか" was released on April 15th and is currently ranked high on subscription sites, making it a popular, heartwarming, pop, and positive love song. The music video is not a love story or a human drama, but a gentle and beautiful work that depicts the "you" that "you" thinks of, which cannot be summed up with words like愛とか恋とか.

The heroine will be played by actress Nagisa Sekimizu, who was selected as a finalist in the 40th Horipro Scout Caravan and has been selected for a number of popular movies and dramas. This will be her first time appearing in a music video.

Novelbright is currently holding the "Novelbright LIVE tour 2022 Hope Assort tour ~ A tour that makes the common goal of 'From Street Performances to Budokan' come true." "愛とか恋とか" will be performed on future tours. Their first performance at Nippon Budokan is also scheduled for June 23rd (Thurs) and 24th (Fri), so be sure to check that out too!

[Comment from TAKENAKA YUDAI (Novelbright)]

Among the songs that Novelbright has released, this song has a very different taste. It has no band sound, and is composed of acoustic guitar, synth bass, and electronic drums. It is a song that we ourselves challenged ourselves from a different angle. It is a very pop and positive love song.

[Comment from Nagisa Sekimizu]

This is my first time appearing in a music video!

It was wonderful and cool to see all the staff working together as one, and I was able to enjoy the shoot with everyone pulling me along.

Takenaka's songs and singing voice were truly wonderful.

I'm really looking forward to the day the MV is completed and everyone can see it!

[Comment from Okuto]

Takenaka's beautiful singing voice and the lyrics of "愛とか恋とか"

Each and every facial expression that Sekisui-san showed was linked, and I was instantly drawn into that world.

The beautiful scenes from the shoot are still burned into my mind.

I'll definitely watch the music video for "愛とか恋とか" dozens, maybe hundreds of times.

It was the best memory of my life.
