 Even though I can't handle Nami Tamaki's hyper-anime style music in large doses, I could watch her videos all day. Her dancing skill is the main reason I was so impressed with her Greeting DVD, so I decided to check out her newest videos, too. This is a really cool, extremely polished DVD, right down to the unique DVD jewel case and artwork. There are four videos included, each with a dance shot version, TV commercials, and a "making of" segment. In all of them, I'm really impressed with Nami - she seems so genuine, like she's not struggling to be overly cute or sexy. She's just herself, and she's a fantastic performer! Get Wild includes some cool dance moves (especially on the chorus) and some nice shots on a fancy motorcycle with side car (with some cool video effects). Her choreography is so fascinating, usually involving really complex arm motions (way more advanced than Morning Musume moves, but of course I love those, too). My Way actually has her leading a cheerleading squad in a school gym, and it's really fun to see those cute yellow uniforms following her moves. Result (my favorite track from the CD) is pretty much all dancing with a black and chrome color scheme - the set is an amazing rotating contraption (there's a quick glance at the blueprints in the behind-the-scenes segment). Sanctuary is the exact opposite (no dancing at all), and had enough budget to film outside in a cool hedge-filled misty garden. As a bonus, there's a track of Nami's choreographer teaching all the moves! This is a really top-notch DVD - it definitely makes me want to buy her last CD/DVD that I missed.
