DADAROMA - 私、バンギャじゃないわ [eng sub] HD

The second part of my tribute following DADAROMA's disbandment. I selected this song not because of any musical impeccability, but because it perfectly showcases Yoshiatsu's fun lyrics that I mentioned previously. It's a play on the fandom, the VK world and of course, the fans themselves. I'll use the annotations this time to explain some terms.
The girl in the song is a bangya, but pretends not to be because she thinks the band member she's seeing would prefer a "normal girl". It turns out he doesn't, but would much rather like her to just be honest about her interests and who she is.
Translation by me.
Annotations:
"Do you like normal girls?" - "Normal girls" is パンピ女子 (panpi joshi), which is a word used by bangya to refer to "regular" girls that aren't into bands. In this sense it sounds slightly derogatory, maybe like the English word "normie". That the girl in the song even uses this word of course makes it even more obvious that she is in fact not a "normal girl", but a bangya herself.
"I'm not a bangya" - So I kept this word in Japanese because I think many people familiar with VK actually know it, and because there's no perfect equivalent. "Fangirl" would be an option, but "bangya" (from the words "band" and "girl") includes being a fangirl of bands specifically. This word refers to girls that are into VK bands, but often to an obsessive point where they try to get to know the band members, travel wherever they go, etc. Basically, their lives revolve around bands and their members. Nowadays I'd say the word is more nuanced, so even someone who's not absolutely obsessed with specific members might refer to themselves as bangya if they consider this band a huge part of their life and maybe are willing to travel to see them. It can be quite individual.
"'Oh, isn't that a bag from Little Hearts?'" - littleHEARTS. is a well known shop specializing in VK, often even hosting sign or handshake events with bands.
