Shouganai Yume Oibito (しょうがない 夢追い人; Helpless Dream Chaser) is the 39th single by Morning Musume. It was released under the zetima label on May 13, 2009. The CD was released in one regular and two limited editions, Limited A and Limited B, on the same day. The Single V was released on May 20, 2009, and the Event V version on May 30, 2009.
"3, 2, 1 BREAKIN'OUT!" was the official theme song of Anime Expo 2009,[1] where Morning Musume was invited as the guests of honor in July 2009.[2] Following the release of the single, Anime Expo announced on their website, that Morning Musume, in collaboration with MySpace, was holding a worldwide contest, to create a music video for a shortened version of the song. UP-FRONT WORKS had released a set of videos of the Morning Musume members performing in front of a green screen for applicants to use upon agreeing to contest and usage rules.[3][4] The results of the contest were announced at Anime Expo 2009 during Morning Musume's concert,[5] and the winner was awarded 390,000 yen.
