Last Week in Gyaru ✨ (LOALO Edition- January 26th 2025 to February 2nd 2025)

Hey Y’all, it’s Kirarin!

I've mentioned before about how I closely follow a lot of Gyaru content from Japan,

From now on, I'll be writing blog posts every week about recent news, updates, & trends in English from our favorite gal publications like Egg & Loalo, as well as some Gyaru content creators from Japan like Yuchopa & Dededo, etc!


Today I’ll be focusing on what’s been going on over at  LOALO from January 26th 2025 to February 2nd 2025! 

If u haven’t already seen the digest I wrote for Egg this week, check it out!


So without further ado let's dive in!

New Videos this week


Still... / LOALO MODELS【Music Video】 (uploaded 1/31/25)



Featured LOALO Models: Piitan, Shan, Lunaconga, Mirei, Fukitisu, Rebra, Yayo


The LOALO models released a music video for their brand new song “Still…”

The song’s main vocalists are LOALO models Piitan, Shan, Lunaconga, & Mirei!


“Still…” is a song with a 2000s r&b type of vibe!


The song is about missing someone after a breakup but still choosing to move forward. 

The music video is really cinematic, with a story shot that stars Fukitisu, the face of LOALO, as the main character. Rebra & Yayo make an appearance at the end as well! 

We get to follow Fukitisu and her “boyfriend" through their story of an unexpected breakup.


Check out my detailed review & style analysis of the MV!

New Insta Posts this week 


[As of right now, LOALO has not made any new instagram posts, but ofc I’ll continue to keep an eye out! 😉]


Honestly, LOALO doesn’t seem to be nearly as active on their official social media accounts as Egg is, so for future weekly digests, I may add links to recent posts from the models’ accounts that I think are cool or interesting! ✨


We are up to date with the recent posts from LOALO!
