I luv this era! XOXO pv is really carefree! The one song that I've always wanted from ayu.
Angel pv has a relaxing effect on me. Those wings are beautiful. In fact I like the best the last scene.

I think the Angel PV was pretty. I don't think the ballerinas were funny or out of place, nor the angels. They were very theatrical, something that doesn't always translate well on videos, but I think it was done in a nice way. I just wish ayu turned into an angel (or devil?) a little earlier.

Andrenekoi 18th June 2014 06:55 PM

I'm in love with the Angel video...

ayu-michan 18th June 2014 06:56 PM

XOXO was okay, her acting was nice in that one, the idea was interesting but as someone else said it before, it got boring throughout the video. And Angel... her lip syncing totally ruined it + horrible effects. I can understand for the dancers but, come on really.

But of course, AHS doesn't like anything.

this era reminded me last time when Sparkle pv just coming out, those comment mainly repeated in this thread :D

AHS member is like that, they do hate when album like "NEXT LEVEL" "Love songs" "Party Queen" and even single "Feel the love / Merry-go-round" just coming out, but they will forgot what they said after Tour/CDL dvd released.

thats why i still hope she will perform new songs from "LOVE again", she just need performances to make ppl re-love those songs...

btw, i hope someone will make fan-made pv for Lelio by using XOXO scenes :rolleyes

Wow, she looked absolutely breathtaking in Angel! The dress was so flattering on her, wouldn't mind her rocking that look more often <3 The ending was beyond cheesy, but i did enjoy it. The song still makes me want to cut off my ears though ugh

XOXO was basically Shake It part 2, but i enjoyed it a lot. It's perfect for the song, very quirky and carefree. I'M DYING at her engrish at 1:53, it sounds like she's saying "do see, a slut" :laugh

I'm actually really happy with the PV's this time around, they fit the songs and all bring something different from Ayu. This is pretty much what Party Queen should've been lol.

you just can't have it all..

good covers --> check!
good songs --> check!
good video --> NOPE!

I love XOXO because it will finally shut the mouths of all the antis. She is finally staging an elaborated choreography, proving that if she tries, she can be easily better dancer and put a better show than Namie Amuro. Also she is more coordinated than all the 300 girls of AKB48 together. This was such a pleasure to a devoted fan like me, the dance on the floor shows how she easily can be sexy but still classy (Unlike Koda Kumi). Thanks god this PV finally came out, I wonder what now the antis are gonna say bout now that they're out of arguments

Good one!

The dance scene in XOXO would have been hot if you could actually see. The glare from the lights seem to ruin the whole scene.

We had all three good for 90% of her catalogue before 2012 lol.

Angel gives me life, It's the best video from te new ones. She looks beautiful and I LOVE her wings ; u;. Still will be buying the CD only version because I like that cover the best XD.

jbrat2219 18th June 2014 08:31 PM

I watch the Angel PV on mute (haven't heard the song yet) and I'm not going to lie... When the "angels" came down from the sky I nearly choked on my sandwich. I have never laughed so hard in my life. And when the ropes came to drag her a way I was dead. I kind of wonder if this was bad on purpose? It HAS to be. Everything in the PV is so bad except for ayu, she looks stunning.

Good one!

Yeap, she will never dance like Namie, it's almost impossible for someone who started to learn dancing as an adult to be better than someone who did it their whole life.

But her concerts are far better than Namie's... The better a zombie can dance, a zombie still is a zombie.

I'm a huge fan of Namie, but i'll admit that her concerts are pretty much only great cause of her dancing, she's obviously not a top vocalist in any way. Ayu interest me cause of her voice and the emotions in her performances, so yeah i'll give ya that one.

Namie's dead eyes give me life though, which is ironic considering she looks like she doesn't give a damn. It obviously works for her, she's got swagger and sass for days.

jyujiw 18th June 2014 08:54 PM

Well. I like the "Angel" PV. Quite don't understanding all the hate as always :laugh

The angels in the last scene weren't done that well, but at a first glance I didn't detect anything extremely wrong tbh. On a second view, after seeing the comments I started to see some points in the back of the wings and etc.
I think it's mainly because Ayu is on the center of attention all the time. And I like this, as well in Curtain Call, that PV is lovely.

Ah, the ballerinas meshed up extremely well with the chorus imo, something have to happened when it kicks off and I see that they matched well with this purpose.

pepper 18th June 2014 09:01 PM

^ i like Angel PV too~ But I can't understand the angels on the lines, they can afford to do simply effects with this... And then cheep effect of adding her those wings... Though the rest is very nice, is like Curtain call but with more work on. /with cheep ANGELS SONG effect. Angel-ANGEL'S SONG, lol/

Andrenekoi 18th June 2014 09:09 PM

The whole composition, the dancers, the body language... It looked like a contemporary take on renaissance painting coming to life. Even if the effect on the wings weren't the best (wanna see it on proper quality, but forgiveness and Why... CG work sucked too), I found every take to be really beautiful.

And also, there's safety rope in the end of the video because Ayu isn't really an angel and can't fly by herself... It's not a hard concept to notice.

Mari-chan 18th June 2014 09:11 PM

I like XOXO Pv... but her outfit isn't really good... looks like she forget to take on a skirt or pants. But.. the PV is fun.
For Angel.. ist is a nice Video... her acting is a bit to much for me.. and a big question... she has wings in the end.. why she needs the lines to fly?? Makes no sense.
I thouht, she become a devil in the end... it looks like a angle with black wings for me.
