Wake me up

Thanks for the links.
So... Wake up, Snowy Kiss and You and I belongs together.

It is working for me, but takes time. :)

Not as disappointed as I thought I'd be. I like the "appears" reference in "snowy kiss" and the slow reveals of the camera.
Still not great videos though.

I'm kind of liking the PVs. (though it's somewhat because they're weirdly cryptic as usual and I don't think Ayu has done videos like this before. It feels like these could have been condensed into special screens for her concert without needing to be like 15 minutes of "PVs" but hey...)

Is the third guy not real or something? He certainly doesn't show up at all during snowy kiss even during scenes that had him before. Though it seemed like Maro was trying to get him and Ayu together judging from the motel scenes and when she was trying to feed him and got "REJECTED".

Perhaps something about these PVs is really revealing personally since Ayu ended up alone in the end anyway? I'd have to say that when she jumped in the water thinking that Maro was going to jump in as well before he just kinda left her there was kind of hilarious and sad at the same time.

I'm still unsure about why Maro and Ayu are fighting at all.

I also thought I'd be disappointed but surprisingly I like them a lot, especially "Wake me up".

"Wake me up" was pretty nice, I really like the fact that there's a storyline and that ayu actually has a role. Seeing her having fun and being sad etc is very different from what she's done recently, because she's not just singing over the song she's acting. I don't know how to explain it, I just like it a lot!

I gotta say I don't like "snowy kiss" as much, it's nice but nothing's happening. :/ this song really deserved a better video but we're basically just seeing them fighting in different places and her being alone in the end... I still like it though, it fits the song but since the song is 6min long it gets pretty boring.

I wish Masahi would explain his PVs though because I don't really get the storyline, why are they fighting all the time?! :laugh I hope in the future she'll do more PVs with storylines but made by other directors so that we can see another side of her, it would be so cool! *_*

I think snowy kiss is supposed to be 'the truth' of what happened? I mean, we'd see her getting along and being happy with Maro from You & Me and then they would cut away to the fighting and pushing in the exact same car with a different color. We also saw her waiting in the exact same outfit as You & Me's intro where Maro picked her up but this time... no one came for her.

i really liked the short versions and cant wait to get home to download these in FULL!!
im really happy about these.

Or... The PV of You & Me was just a dream of what Ayu wanted to happen....

The storyline would be :
WAKE ME UP > YOU & ME > SNOWY KISS

^THAT, that's the only thing i figured out xD still don't quite get the idea of that other dude... >_>

I think the other dude was just her previous relationship (in the music videos) and how that wasn't working so she got with Maro, but that didn't work out either? I wish there was a bit more explained, but at the same time I like that it's ambiguous.

You know, maybe the other guy is a 'ghost' of sorts? Like an ex that kind of 'lingers' or something? It's probably incorrect since Maro was high fiving him like for 2 minutes but he totally disappears during snowy kiss.

Maybe it's more like... she was just fantasizing with Wake me up~You & Me and snowy kiss is the reality?

Thanks for the links!

Maybe I'm just too tired, but I really don't get what they want to say with those PVs.
From my understanding the chronological order would be "Wake me up" -> "You & Me" -> "snowy kiss".
In "Wake me up" Ayu's relationship with this guy doesn't work well and in the end it is clear that she will break up with this guy and be together with Maro. "You & Me" shows the relationship with Maro and the lovey-dovey couple at the beginning turns into a fighting one in the end. "snowy kiss" just shows how they are fighting with each other like at the end of the "You & Me" PV.
Serious question: Have I missed something that would turn this into something meaningful and a real story?

^ The idea of her fantasizing makes sense

I LOVED Snowy Kiss tbh, i haven't seen her give this much emotion in a PV ever. Only that overly dramatic "I'm about to cry" look.
I'm surprisingly really loving these PV's. Seing her that aggressive was really interesting!

They make me think a lot, which is great. Usually i'm just like "yeah that was pretty" but that's it. Although in the Wake Me Up scence where the other guy rejects her (*****, queen ayu is serving you food you should be ashamed) made me laugh. For a short second i thought he'd end up being gay and hit on Maro LMFAO.

To be honest it doesn't look like fantasizing at all for me.

They are not bad. just okay. I liked the scene in snowy kiss where they are about to jump and she is jumping alone. That was kinda deep and very realistic. Whole PV's is just too monotonous (cool slo-mo effect thought) and it could have more than just fighting. The storyline misses a plot. She could dramatically break up with the "1st guy" or sth, then You & Me, then sth dramaticall could happend in the end (no, not the car fight) in the end of "You & Me" or in the begining of "snowy kiss". That would make more sense. Now we got crush and fighting without any reasons.

and I liked "bouncybouncy" car scenes in Wake me up.

I just don't like her being cute. She's too cute in Wake me up with her faces.

I quite like these 2 PV ! At least they are well filmed not like Love songs trilogy ...

IMO, the story lines are Wake me up -> You & Me / Snowy kiss
Like other said that Wake me up is about the story about bad relationship with a boyfriend and she's also have a good feeling to her close friend (Maro) too.
At the end shown up that while hugging with her boyfriend she's also holding Maro hand (but they didn't break up).

You & Me and Snowy kiss are something like her imagination. You & Me is a positive thing that what if she's in relationship with Maro everything would be great blah blah blah.
The fight scene in You & Me may refer to the normal couple that they might have a little fight in a real life for a couple. and then in Snowy kiss is showing the negative side thing that what if she's in relationship with Maro and everything turn out bad? Maybe they have to fight all the time. So the end of the Snowy kiss that why no one picks her up because both relationship with Maro isn't real, so he's not gonna pick her up.

They are definitely better than You&Me but I think I won't watch snowy kiss once again, it's rather plane and boring just repeating the same scene over and over. Wake me up is the best ^_^

.....................wow these were terrible and usually I can find redeeming factors in her pvs

kinda boring and i have to skip some parts just to know the ending >__<

one of the part in Wake me up made me think that the other guy is gay and interested to Maro LOL!

but really kinda mess up for me i didnt get the idea of all these fight scenes between Ayu and Maro

and seriously Maro and Ayu you guys didnt look like fighting to me, the way Maro pushed Ayu is too "soft" and that didnt look real =_= i just cant

I've watched them again and I sadly can't say I like them. This trilogy is missing a real plot. The break up and fighting just seems without any real reason. The scene where she's jumping alone was nice, but a scene that lasts a few seconds can't make a whole PV (or even a trilogy) great. In "Wake me up" I really can't stand her cute faces, that is way to much "hey look at me, I'm the perfect super duper cute girlfriend!!!".

Thank you lots

I don't think any imagination is involved. You & Me was a weak PV on its own, so she made a prequel and sequel.

Wake me up shows how she & Maro got together to begin with: cuz her real boyfriend was starting to ignore her & Maro made her feel more loved.

Then in You & Me they have fun for awhile before the fighting starts. They got together for what I'd consider to be the wrong reasons - because she needed SOMEONE, not cuz she loved HIM. So they butt heads - the relationship was never totally functional to begin with

Then in snowy kiss their relationship completely falls apart and she ends up worse off, lonelier, than she started.

I think it's a good story. Kinda redeems You & Me. Cept that the acting is still terrible =\

It's Bromance LOL!!

Agree with Delirium-Zer0 completely. The videos are very straight-forward.

Ugh, I wish she would be creative again~ Not here for this soap opera mess~

Well, she still got 'hurt' in some of them since she mentioned bandages and stuff on Twitter. I don't think they wanted to go for super realistic beatdowns anyway. I mean, I'd personally be kinda creeped out if they went for 'as real as possible' violence.

I guess I was mistaken about the scenes at the beginning of snowy kiss and Wake me up. It's not fantasy after all.

So she doesn't feel loved by her other boyfriend -> ends up with Maro -> not really 'in love with him' -> they fight a LOT as the relationship goes on (as seen in You & Me but in a hilarious fashion) -> she ends up alone again.

"sweet scar" has a plethora of well-used, subtle symbols. There you got your creative ;)

I also agree with Delirium-Zer0

I just try to find the reason of skipness of the whole story haha.

the PVs are such disappointment, ah well at least the songs make up for them.. i miss her old PVs like together when, you were, days

None of the PVs could leave a lasting impression on me but the songs definitely did. Really happy with all four songs, "Snowy kiss" has such a trancy vibe!

I'm just really annoyed that both electro remixes (Wake me up & Snowy kiss) suffer from those awful dubstep influences. At least the "Snowy kiss" remix is still bearable to my ears as to the slight amount of dubstep elements.

"Wake me up" on the other hand faces entirely tonal devastation as soon as the dubstep noise kicks in. The rest of this remix is alas OK. Alas, because I actually love Remo-con and this remix except of the mentioned flaws.

ayu why doesn't go date with this handsome model than maro
LOL

I don't know why I seem to be so fixated on wedding rings, but I noticed that both she and Maro wore them in most (if not all? I only watched once and don't really need to waste another six minutes of my life) of the snowy kiss PV, which would definitely support the theory that that one comes last.

Though, given how much they fought in You & Me, it's a miracle they made it to the altar. :tired

I think that guy in wake me up pv is mannie in her real life and after it didnt work out she moves with maro.the very good song like wake me up has such an awful pv. Ohhhh

I forgot to say that but when ayu slightly pushes Maro on the bed and he just rolls over it and falls down on the other side I was like "wtf drama queen" :laugh This scene was so funny.

Thank you!

Wake me up was executed very well, interesting storyline and the realisation that its connected to You & Me, but snowy kiss doesn't have be enough plot to keep it interesting for 6 minutes - which is disappointing as its such a good song, deserved a little better. These videos do redeem You & Me but honestly, that was a PV not worth making a trilogy out of.

I've had to deal with a little bit of domestic violence between my parents growing up. I'd like it a little more if Ayu was trying to bring more awareness to the issue, but it seems she just did it for shock value and for that I have to say for the first time I'm really uncomfortable and disappointed with Ayu's work. At the very least there should've been a warning label for victims. Even though the acting was bad, that stuff is never cool.

Wake me up was kinda cute for me. i like the story line. I had to agree i thought that the story would end up with the new dude liking Maro when that restaurant scene happened.

snowy kiss now sounds like a painful song instead of the clubbing song. :( and the PV is boring but i am now intrigued to find out the link between snowy kiss, Wake me up and You & Me.

Wake me up: ayu in love with the other dude but eventually end up with Maro
You & Me: ayu is totally in love with Maro. Fighting scenes seem to show otherwise.
snowy kiss: ayu and Maro fighting constantly was what actually happened and whatever that happened in You & Me was just a dream.

my preliminary analysis. haha

we found love?

All I could think of was issues of domestic violence when I watched the snowy kiss PV, sigh. Not sure how I feel about that. On the other hand, Ayu looked gorgeous singing atop of the car with the city lights backdrop.

but they are fighting in "you and me" video too, so i don't think Y&m is a dream.

i really love the "wake up" video, and it work very well alone :love

snowy kiss is a disaster IMO , too much fights and nothing very surprising, they just try to fill 6 minutes of music with ULTRA SLOW MOTION takes.

Nothing will ever be as bad as the Love Songs ~story~ PVs, or the Party Queen PVs.

These were just... odd.

Thanks for posting, though.

i meant the "happier" moments are the dreams. what really happened were all the fights.. i may be wrong :P

I wonder what ayu think about this clips (Direction, edition, results)

she really think this videos are "good" or she realizes that as DVD product theses truly sucks! XD

from the beginning, when i heard snowy kiss i thought "this song rocks!, but i know the video gonna be awful"
the songs is so powerfull-high-level that the only way to do a great videos is with a big budget production
and i think ayu is not making big budget videos anymore.

can i just say...the scene where Ayu was on the car singing against the night lights was absolutely stunning in snowy kiss? the Bokeh and there was one particular scene in the bridge where she just turned to the camera...that moment was really beautiful. It was as though she was asking "Do you understand?"

Like most, I believe the story is straightforward but I did enjoy it more than I expected. I think there's something very real abt the plot. I dont know how to explain this feeling but..its like, reflecting something that DOES happen.

Wake me up was really nice. I DO enjoy seeing her so cute HAHA!! I also thought the guy would hit on Maro LOL

And i guess snowy kiss explains itself. Felt a bit agitated seeing Maro treating her like this...aargh lol..i personally dun think they had to show a reason for the fight..i mean...whatever it is, it is what the outcome that really matters...which is that they have fought and broke up and Ayu is alone once again. The main idea is also to drive back to You & Me. I especially loved the throwback scene at the platform. that scene was really symbolic.

Im not too crazy about them.

I agree with tasking.

I am sooo sick of this crap over and over :( The songs were a step up from her usual but her pv's this time were downright unoriginal and boring. what happened to pv's like microphone or because of you or rainbow?

well "BRILLANTE" and "how beautiful you are" was two expectacular works imo, but you're right, now often, 1 of 5 videos is good, the rest forgettable

actually i think her last 5 CLASS-A PV was: microphone / sexy little things / virgin road / hbya / BRILLANTE
(and im not really sure about "virgin road")

I think we'll probably get a different take on PVs later now that she has Maro PVs out of her system.

Yay fun summer party! Oh wait it's December. Gellup Gellup Gellup!!!

I haven't watched Snowy Kiss yet, but the end of Wake Me Up made me laugh for some reason. :lech

I coudn't agree more. Doesn't "dig" fashion Sexy little thing thingy though.

+ 1
I can't understand people calling these "boring," because I find them deeply unsettling.

I think the relationship between the 3 videos is quite clear.

In You&Me, she is clearly recollecting the happier times she had with Maro in the summer.

In Wake me up, we see the prelude to what happens in You&Me - she is with that anon hot guy, who then dumps her, and she gets together with Maro.

In snowy kiss, we see the aftermath of the relationship with Maro, which sours, and then it pans back to Ayu on the beach again (cf You&Me), i.e. she's recollecting the same relationship, but different parts of it.

I guess the biggest take away is a theme she has been interested in since appears - the idea that at any one point of time, people only see one facet of the relationship between 2 people, and that there are many untold stories that we are not aware of, that only the 2 people in question are privy to. She explicitly sings about this in Return Road ("futari no koto wa futari ni shika wakaranai" - what happened between the 2 of us, only we will know)

In a sort of indirect way (if you wanna read closer into this), she is essentially telling everybody to stop speculating about her relationships cos nobody really knows what's going on apart from herself (and the men in her life, of course).

I would like to know what the reason is why they are fighting? The new guy from Wake Me Up looks a bit too random in here... Anyway, I like the trilogy, especially Snowy Kiss is a good PV and caught my attention. Thank you for sharing!

EDIT: I wrote this before I read js_surrealism post. Makes a little bit more clear. Thank you!

that makes sense and I believe that could be said for many many of the lives of celebrities as well..thanks for this :)

The entire "snowy kiss" video is one big reference to the "appears" video and therefore the lyrics to "appears". It's just a shift of perspective, Ayumi isn't looking at the lovers and wondering if they're truly happy anymore, but she was in such a case now. Makes me wonder if it was inspired by her relationship with Mannie, it seemed happy to the outside, but just ended one day.

Don't get the big deal about the domestic violence in the video though. It's the most effective action to show that a relationship is not working for either partner, so it only makes sense to show it in the video.
Art is free from moral responsibilities for me.

Very interesting! I had to face similar experiences in the past and therefore exactly the same thoughts when I watched this PV. Definitely not going to give it another play.

I appreciate her more natural style lately but sensitive issues should be handled with more care. What they did for "Snowy kiss" is barely reasonable as fighting couples are not necessarily performing pillow fights but other, more serious stuff.

This is what I think about the triology.

Ayu is pretty much desconstructing her popstar image since... Five?

Appears is so influential~
Song of the century.

Wake me up - You & Me - snowy kiss

like what some people have said, it shows her relationship with Maro; how it started, the middle, and how it ended.

little details here and there I liked in all 3 PVs (random model obviously isn't into Ayu and Maro cares for her quite a bit, how they really had "the best time of their lives" in the honeymoon period of their relationship in the summer, and how she just knows she ****ed herself real bad when the fights all happen at the end)

overall, it's a much better trilogy... although I think Ayu should give it a rest. she doesn't do connected PVs well, and I personally thought if you, as a casual listener, were to catchy snowy kiss's PV on TV, you'd find it awkward, and as a fan, I'm somewhat embarrassed she's making herself look like a joke.

it doesn't matter how connected the PVs are, or how "symbolic" us hardcore fans think there are... she still makes herself a laughing stock to passers-by. maybe she doesn't care anymore but I think she's indulging in herself too much lately and forgetting she's a singer for a reason.

snowy kiss was an epic song and it's really frustrating to see her waste it on a video that she wants her new bf to be featured on. Wake me up was a weak replica of Days. she may look great (except she looked 40 in snowy kiss with that God-forbid hair) but yeah... my thoughts on this trilogy.

Six years to go. What's the matter? :drunk

She just gracefully looked her age in "snowy kiss" - while looking better than 95% of the people her age.

I guess my point was that she looked really old and unflattering... lol.

Unflattering? I can't think of any point of her career in which she looked more beautiful without the need of crazy amounts of make-up or shiny dresses.

out of these videos she looked her best in sweet scar

different strokes for different folks.. i just think it's real ugly

I agree, and don't agree.

If Ayu had portrayed the domestic violence well, which she didn't, then that is fine. There are other ways to show a relationship isn't working. Her portrayal of domestic violence completely trivialised an under reported and very very real issue. It's absurd.

If you're going to portray an issue like domestic violence you need to do it well. If you don't, you look ignorant and shallow and people who have experienced these issues have every single right to call you out. If somebody does it well, credit to them.

So, I think people are 100% justified in calling Ayu out these shambles of a PV.

It's not about morals, it's about understanding the issues you present. Ayu clearly doesn't understand.

Really... what was showed on the video doesn't fit this IMO... None of them were being abused... They were FIGHTING each other. There's no agressor/victim, but 2 stupid people hitting each other.

Doesn't look to me like she was dumped in Wake Me Up; looks to me like she starts to cheat on her boyfriend with his friend. They then actaully become a couple in You and Me, but it is short lived and turns violent by Snowy Kiss. Maybe the message is that a relationship that starts out in lies is bound for failure?

What? See what I bolded. That was clearly in the video. And when Ayu shoves Maro, she is the aggressor and Maro is the victim and vise-versa. One can also can see it as Ayu defending herself against a man who is bigger than her shoving her around. I'm sorry, shoving a woman down in a car, let alone in any capacity, is NOT okay, stupid or not. It scares me to see what some people's definition of domestic violence is.

^ I don't think he contradicted himself. The bolded part states "by one partner against another", while Andrenekoi is noting that in the PV both of them are being agressive, just because Maro is stronger doesn't mean that Ayu isn't being agressive to him either.

I agree with Andrenekoi, I really don't think this PV is trying to show domestic violence (like one part showing an abusive behavior towards the other), it just shows a couple fighting with the same intensity. It's not domestic violence, it's just a really bad couple fight with both parts being agressive toward each other.

And it's not that what's happening is stupid, it's that they are being stupid (having a stupid atitude) toward each other.



I actually like those pvs, the way they show the development of a relationship that started in an unexpected way (the girl staying with the friend because her boyfriend was a jerk), had its nice moments, but turned out to have a really bad ending. It's something that actually happens to a lot of couples...

Which is why I said when Ayu shoves him and vise-versa. But in reality, the majority of the video has him shoving her around. Ayu's natural response is to hit back. Here's the difference: where she's only hitting him in retaliation, Maro is grabbing her and shoving her back into the car, onto their bed, out the door of their room and onto a balcony and throwing a suitcase at her. Maro, being the guy, could cause some serious injury. And in my opinion, whenever that's a factor, regardless if it's one or both, man or woman, it's most definitely domestic violence. That's probably not what Ayu and crew intended, but that's what's being portrayed.

Think I'm gonna actually have to watch these :laugh


It's funny because, at fetlife, we just had a thread about what is "fighting" to you in your relationship.

I feel really really sorry for people who even resort to raised voices. Glad I never had partners like that.


Is it domestic violence if it's consensual :roflmao

By Andrenekoi's definition, I could shove tasking around all I like and it would not be domestic violence as long as she shoved me back? In my opinion it is still domestic violence. It's just being perpetrated by both parties.

What exactly would 'portraying DV well and with understanding' have looked like anyway? *especially in music video form* I don't really know if there is a right way to portray it without making the audience somewhat uncomfortable. I know that Last Friends did for one of its story arcs but that is a drama and not a 6~ minute music video without dialogue.

I don't think we're allowed to talk about such serious topics like ~domestic violence~. If Ayu started singing about the banned areas of discussion (politics, religions, etc) would the rules have to be changed?

THIS. This time, the first feeling which has overwhelmed me after watching the trilogy was - what a pity that such good and powerful songs have such PVs... As music is and will always be primary to me - I just really feel sad that there are no strong, individual, energetic PVs for them...

I think they got to set on the idea of selling the Ayu+Maro relationship and took their focus off making good videos. Same thing they did with Ayu+Mannie. I don't care if she puts dancers in roles in her videos, because they have made better ones before. But repeating the relationship trilogy and seriously blowing chunks while doing so just sucks. She can do better videos by herself holding up her iphone to film it all.

or maybe her PV budget has been cut due to low sales of her recent albums, dont u guys realize lately her PVs look very simple, her last extravagant PV is probably ballad.

^You've got a point. That could be a possibility.

Ayu pls stop producing such low budget pv.... I miss pvs like evolution, marionette, M, together when, momentum etc....

She used to be great, above other artists... Her videos are like one of the best in Japan's music industry (2000-2005 era)... But what's happening now? She used to be WAY better than what namie amuro is producing. But amuro seem to be doing so much better.

Do u pple agree?

This, pretty much this.
The definition of domestic violence is not mine, I got it from wikipedia (that's why I quoted it), but it really is pretty accurate. As far as my understanding of the subject goes, Domestic Violente is a "little" bit more complex than a couple shoving it other... Maro is not being agressive to Ayu in order to show power, to repress her, to make her less, to humiliate her... And those are typical characteristics of the domestic abuse.

If Maro was abusing Ayu while trying to keep the relationship, if he was trying to dominate her, them, that would be another story... But in the end, he is the one who left her, and he did it pretty fast, not the oposite. I don't think AT ALL this video is about domestic violence, I don't think this was ever the point. This video is about a idealized relationship failing. We don't even know who started abusing who on the video... Because it doesn't really matter to the storyline.

I already saw some lovey dovey couples turning into street fighter when the relationship was about to end, just like the PV... And the most pathetic, imature and sad it looked, I wouldn't consider it domestic violence.

The PV wasn't even filmed in Japan, this already makes it more expensive than ur everyday jpop video.

if anyone hasnt noticed she has been pretty much telling a story since Love songs... all the videos are connected to her at the moment, its pretty much telling us/showing us her chaotic life.

AS for the DV talk... I consider it as something that escalates... One blow out doesnt make it bad, but stupid... it's when it starts happening all the time that it becomes a problem... as for one person being right or wrong... if they are both doing it, they are both wrong. Just by ayumi retaliating she is in the wrong and she is just as bad as maro.

I will wait to I have the DVD hahahaha

she's like in her 30s and she should just stop acting like she's 17yo with those faces. I'm sorry but when I watch that restaurant scene in Wake me up I can't help but cringe. Snowy kiss was like...wuut.

My thought exactly!!

I have but one word...."meh."

Thank you for sharing though!

That's still violence between two people. I don't know about everyone else, but to me it clearly looked like Ayu was only being defensive with her violence, thus it being violence against her.

I don't really want to get into this, tbh.

Regardless, my point still stands that whatever is going on, it's still a pretty bad PV.

Wake me up is too good to deserve such a cheap PV...

That's why I made one ;) Check it out !

Sometimes I believe Ayu fandom measures how artistic a video is by how many wigs she uses on it...

Or how many cuts are synchronized with the beat.

Surprisingly I liked full version of Wake Me Up. snowy kiss was okay to me. Too much pointless unexplained fighting in it doesn't make me wanna watch it again.

I can pretty much see what she was trying to show in these music videos, but I'd rather watch Sweet scar again & again than these two. Good thing it wasn't another part of this story-line.

My thoughts exactly! Sometimes I think she really over use it.

When I saw the snowy kiss PV a while ago, I really don't like it. As many people said that there's a lot of pointless fighting and it's unexplained that's why I don't get. I'm not used to this kind of PV just like from LOVE SONG era where she had Mannie. Glitter/fated PV is already enough for me.

Wake me up is kinda interesting but won't be my favorite.

EDIT: When I was the PV of "You and Me", Ayu's character in that PV kinda reminds somehow of myself. I don't know if I should be telling this but when I'm disappointed, frustrated to my BF, all that Ayu has been behaving in those PVs, I became aggressive towards my boyfriend. I use anger and aggressiveness and luckily my BF won't go with it.

Wake me up has the best music and video

I guess everyone is expecting miracles from this chick we know as "AYU"

Some of you were around when Daybreak PV was released...

Seriously, the "again" PVs aren't STEP you's in their own right, but I actually think they're more enjoyable than Next Level PV or dare I say it, evolution PV.

These are very personal.. and make you think.. They can`t be so blatinly obvious, or it isn`t as interesting.. I enjoy the cryptic messages.. That`s why when you watch them all together, it kind of makes sense, and makes you wonder.. Is Maro playing a past character in her life? These give a more cinematic feel to them.. Reminds me of the Love songs PVs.. Can`t wait to see Ayu in a movie now :).. Overall, pleasantly surprised at the direction she`s going in, fun.
