the analysis was great!!
thx for it~
the PV seems much better

freedreamer 20th March 2008 03:39 PM

I dont believe ayu will make something so random...totally meaningless...she has been at it for 10 years...

waterballoon 20th March 2008 03:53 PM

Ayu will NEVER EVER do anything for no reason! I knew there must be something about the hanky dropping off from her red dress... Lol.

Thanks for making this PV deeper than its superficial outer appearance!

GRACE 20th March 2008 08:43 PM

Amazing. This makes me so sad that I can't buy the CD+DVD version because through this analysis I realized that I love this PV...

We have a genius on our hands, 5 stars Idealist! It was brilliant!

everlastingRAINBOW 20th March 2008 09:20 PM

This actually makes me like the song lots more :yes

ayuayu798 20th March 2008 09:21 PM

I love your interpretation of the pv!! I would have never thought of something as good and detailed! ^^

Chiharo 20th March 2008 09:31 PM

Amazing!I really don't only understand the PV,but the song itself too.

lol, can you say "great minds think alike"? i was thinking about doing a thread like this, but you beat me to it! and did a way better job than i ever would! i had some differences in my interpretation, but i had something similar. your wording is fantastic! :yes good job!

Honestly.......I don't think there is anything to analyze in this PV. Usually I'm the first one on board for an Ayu PV analysis, but I think in this case people are just trying to find something to analyze in order to make the PV better. IMO, analyzing this PV is as pointless as trying to analyze the Blue Bird or Born to Be PVs.....sorry. Sometimes I think we have a tendency to over analyze things here in the Ayu world. :)

edit: well, admittedly at least it has more of a plot than Blue Bird and Born to Be. :)

jon_the_d 21st March 2008 01:10 AM

yeah, I'm kinda with sunshine slayer.

although ayu will have some ideas and message and meaning behind it all, I don;t think we'll be able to agree on what it is, and even if we did, doesn't mean we'd be right!

To be honest, I;m more inclined to thnk her 10th anniversary single will have more to do with her life, her fame, growing up, getting older, etc. and not some obscure "technological singularity". Even if it does talk about technology advancing, doesn;t necessarily have to be referring to this ulitmate singularity. just basic average technological advancement, and the digital age.

I need to think about it more before I decide what I think she's trying to say...

but unless she gives the answers, we can only guess.

thanks for your efforts though guys.

[EDIT]

I'm sure most of you noticed....the reference to being strong not to cry:

They praised me, saying "you must be strong not to cry."

the more even laughing became agony.

thanks for posting this interpretation. although it doesnt label that this is the true meaning behind the PV, i think this analysis will help people enjoy the PV better and start to think more abstractly

Bashumaru 21st March 2008 02:23 AM

Woah nice explanation!

But that's one reason that I feel very certain that Mirrorcle World is about transhumanism. Ayu will be turning 30 this year; she has lost her ability to hear in one ear; her dear friend died fairly recently. These things (aging, disease, death) are all things that technology has the promise to solve; if the singularity occurs, then we gain the ability to leave the problems associated with having physical bodies behind. Mirrorcle World would be Ayu's way of showing hope for this future.
er....no, sorry.

don't buy that "singularity" idea at all. I think you're taking the idea too far.

Ayu_no_tenshi 21st March 2008 11:13 AM

ok...first of all...no matter what the PV implies or whatever, there technically is no such thing as a "random" video. why do people keep saying that constantly?? it's not like they just say "okay...now jump in from of the camera and whatever happens, happens. and when you go to change into a new outfit, just grab something randomly from the rack." Everything is planned out and done for a reason. just bc we dont always understand those reasons, does not in any way make it random.

Are you sure you're not looking too much into this video? :| It's kind of odd to me that Ayumi decided one day to make a PV that tackles the subject of singularity. I mean, are we, the world, really heading into that? Sorry if I come off arrogant or whatever, I like your analysis, it's great and all, really in-depth, but is Ayumi really capable of such a thing? Well if she is then... o________o;
It's just really puzzling to me. x_x

I really don't see anything wrong with speculation. Yes, it's a pretty deep concept, and yes, it's also likely Ayu didn't just decide to form her video around such a concept. Writing an interpretation of how one may possibly perceive the PV is not going "too far".

I think with this video, some see it as something that isn't worthy of interpretation, which is fine... opinions are opinions.
Whether it was Ayu's intention to touch on this or not, I know that this analysis really made me enjoy the PV more and it made more sense. Evidently, many share my feelings. And, basically everything in this world is open to interpretation. :)

Trueeee.

Basically I think that there is a story behind this PV, but I'm not sure if it's about singularity.

Lanz16 21st March 2008 02:12 PM

Wow! Nice interpretation you had there, Idealist.
Thanks for sharing us! :-)

Yukitora 21st March 2008 02:52 PM

The last screenshots reveal the car's number plate.

13 CRY MIR.

Interesting.

FoObY 21st March 2008 04:52 PM

^ I'm very curious as to what this encodes, aside from the obvious "MIR". Or maybe it's not as obvious as it seems!? =O
