Don’t take me wrong I love Jpop but honestly I have never liked their dancing style of most of the groups, some are very powerful dancing but their movements aren’t eye-catching or impressive and they tend to be too repetitive. I know LDH have choreographies that require a lot of energy and body strength but they lack originality between one and other, the movements are usually very repetitive too and at the same time they look a bit messed up.
I agree, I'm into Japanese music but I prefer J-rock. There are more outstanding J-rock songs (imo) compared to J-pop, and the singers are also better. J-pop dances are indeed kinda repetitive and look like something we'd dance in a zumba class. Koharu is the only one I could watch for hours. That said, I also don't like Western-style dancing that much, because it's always either some very sexualized 'Dirty Dancing' copy or very aggressive into-your-face power dance that I can't sympathisize with, I feel uncomfortable watching both.
idk why japanese choreographers use so much arm movement and nothing else. i kinda don’t like that. i think it looks really messy when a group of people do it and it doesn’t look synced at all.
I think that's why they like it. I remember a kpop group changing the choreography to one of their songs to something messier with more arm movement because the Japanese like when it seems more messy. I'm not very sure
can you show me example dance with less arm movement? because this "japanese choreographers use so much arm movement and nothing else" win 1st place World of Dance in 2016 & 2017
ok so im 3/4 japanese and 1/4 korean, but i have never really listened to j pop at all, like i watch anime and listen to kpop a lot, the jpop songs, are, like strange? they all sstick to one theme and it is repetitive
