As Hiroshi Nagai（永井博）has so wonderfully depicted above, the hot season may already have arrived. The temperatures are a little cooler but it's certainly comfortable and the sun out there is gorgeous. Who wouldn't want to tear off those work clothes including the stifling leather shoes and socks and wade into some cooling water?
The ladies at Nogizaka46（乃木坂46）share your pain and desire, and back in July 2016, they released their 15th single, "Hadashi de Summer" (Barefoot Summer). Written by Yasushi Akimoto（秋元康）and composed by Hidetoshi Fukumori（福森秀敏）with arrangement by APAZZI, it's just the aidoru tonic to get fans ready for the season. The music video by Takeshi Maruyama（丸山健志）filmed in Okinawa Prefecture may have gotten viewers to book their tickets on ANA or JAL for Japan's southernmost province. Nothing like a summer vacation with friends.
"Hadashi de Summer" hit No. 1 on the Oricon weeklies and it would become the 6th-ranked song for 2016. It was also a track on Nogizaka46's 3rd studio album "Umarete kara Hajimete Mita Yume"（生まれてから初めて見た夢...The First Dream I Had Since I Was Born） from May 2017. The album also reached the top spot and became the 7th-ranked album of that year. It also shares space with the hit single "Influencer".
