A protagonist, grappling with personal uncertainties, finds solace in the melancholic melodies and evocative imagery surrounding them.

A thank you letter for her fans, friends and herself, from an idol who's achieving her dreams. Flower Rhapsody is a look back on the journey of how a ponkotsu, clumsy shrine maiden who had no self-confidence, worked her way to become the idol many of us know and love today. The MV shows various events that she's been apart of throughout her years of streaming, each scene depicting her personality very clearly, from showing off her characteristically messing up and getting the short end of the stick in any game she plays, having the most cheerful and contagious laughs, her resolve to persevere and trynew things, and most importantly, being a loveable person and just a joy to be around.nnAs a fan who watches her, I have seen that behind her upbeat personality, there are times when she shows her vulnerabilities. There are times when she feels like she messes everything up, that she's not fit for the job, that nothing goes her way. In the MV, we can see that she has many friends that love and support her, whose friendships feel extremely genuine even through this short video.nnNow she stands on a stage, filled with fans cheering and crying for her.nnnOther personal thoughts:nFrom my very basic understanding of the lyrics, Flower Rhapsody puts a very positive veil over life that makes it seem so filled with beauty and happiness. Miko also mentions of her weaknesses and regrets, and how she is proud of herself despite them, which I try to implement into my own life to try and get through my mundane days.nnCompared to her other songs, Flower Rhapsody has a very different tone and even her singing voice sounds different. She sounds like she is filled with so many genuine emotions while singing that I am ready to burst into tears whenever this song starts playing.nnWhat I like most about Flower Rhapsody, is seeing Miko's growth as a person. She is someone who decided to put in the effort, found people who love and support her, and is proud of herself for being herself and making it this far with no intention of stopping. It's an inspiring story of a real person and it shows that anyone can make it if they try.nSakura Miko is ELITE
