Chicken Line

Chicken Line (stylized as "Chicken LINE"; チキンLINE) is the 19th single by Japanese idol girl group SKE48. It was released on March 30, 2016.^[1] The song debut number-one on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart, selling 257,095 copies in the first week.^[2] It also reached number-one on the Billboard Japan Hot 100.^[3]

The title track is the main theme from the movie PriPara Mi~nna no Akogare ♪ Let's Go ☆ PriPari. This is the first single without the graduated member Rena Matsui, and the first after the release of Love Crescendo debut single, "Cup no Naka no Komorebi".

Unlike AKB48 and HKT48 (which release full versions of previous single, whenever a new one is released), SKE48 does not release full versions of their music videos on YouTube as of 2011, due to restrictions imposed by Avex Trax, which currently belongs. A short version of music video was published on March 7th. The full version is included only on limited editions, and was not published on YouTube. As "Coquettish Jūtai Chū", the full version from MV wasn't leaked prior its release.

This is the last appearance of Sae Miyazawa on a 48G single, as she attended for a last time on a AKB48 single prior her graduation. Miyazawa was featured previously on Kimi wa Melody (Released March 9th), and "Tabi no Tochū" is her graduation song which is featured on Type D. Sae graduated from SKE48 in a concert held on Nippon Gaishi Hall at March 4th, then from SNH48, on a special graduation stage on March 16th 2016.

Types A, B, C and D covers were changed, due to similarities with Body Language, from australian singer Kylie Minogue.
