Japanese girl idol group Momoiro Clover Z has started releasing dance practice videos featuring their single songs on their official YouTube channel. Following “Renacer Serenade” posted early this month, the second song they chose is “MOON PRIDE,” the first opening theme for the Sailor Moon Crystal anime series. In the video, the four members perform intricate formations and glamorous dances against a backdrop of lighting that represents the nighttime atmosphere to the song.
