Japanese boy band shakes up the music world as all nine members kiss each other in new video clip

If there was an award for most male-on-male kisses in a mainstream music video, this idol group would take home first prize.

While female idol groups like AKB48 enjoy a lot of attention at home and abroad, there’s a male idol group that looks set to steal the limelight with a brand new music video that features all its members kissing each other. Over and over again.

The song, called “Shadow Kiss“, is performed by relatively new boy band MeseMoa., a nine-member group first formed in 2012 under the name Morning Musumen, so-called as they used to cover songs by the popular Japanese female idol group Morning Musume.

As the lead single from Secret, the first album released under their new moniker, a theme of shrouded secrecy runs through the new video clip, which is making news around Japan for its extraordinary number of male-on-male kisses. According to eagle-eyed viewers, there are 36 smooches in total throughout the almost four-minute clip, which averages out to one kiss every six seconds!

Take a look at the video clip below:

If you’re unable to view the video in your region, we’ll attempt to break it down for you here. The clip is set in a candlelit church, with the boys pictured dancing, singing, and kissing each other while dressed in archbishop-style capes.

Troughout the video, the boys can be seen in a number of poses usually reserved for anime and manga dedicated to boys’ love, a subgenre of male homosexual romance that’s loved by legions of female fans.

In amongst all the cheek, forehead, finger, arm and neck kisses are a number of other surprising variations designed to get viewers’ hearts racing, like this gentle foot kiss.

▼ There’s also a dreamy kabe-don wall-pound scene…

▼ And a raunchy trouser-covered thigh kiss.

With 36 kisses in total, the video for “Shadow Kiss” is already attracting a lot of attention online, as fujoshi (female fans of boy’s love), have been sharing scenes from the clip on social media.
