I just think the execution was tacky. Ayu looked cool, but she kind of set the video up for a bunch of choreography that she couldn't deliver on. I can't get over the anticlimax of the beginning of the video, when Ayu and the dancers are practically running toward the camera as if Ayu is going to show everyone she can dance, but they all stop and Ayu just hops around and shakes her ass like a toddler. The rest of the video is cool, but Ayu's scenes are just a letdown. If you can't dance, try not to frame an entire video around set ups for choreographed dance scenes...
XOXO was fun, but the execution was a little tacky. Again, just like the NaNaNa video, if you can't dance, don't set up choreographed dance scenes in a PV.
I think everything else about the videos were awesome though. I loved the throwback to do it again at the beginning of XOXO, and I totally loved LICO being a huge part of that video. I hate to admit this, but I wish Tim was with them in XOXO. And Lelio is totally full of energy and the guys do amazing acrobatics. Its just like how Angel is actually an amazing PV but Ayu over-blowing the lip sync was unavoidably distracting from the rest of the video.
I would love to see her do something similar. It would break the monotony of Ayu walking down or standing in halls like she's done in a dozen videos in the last 5 or 6 years. But I don't want anymore choreography setups unless Ayu is actually going to dance... Not hop around dance.
I wonder if Ayu has considered taking dance classes? She seems to have a good memory for basic routines. I bet she would pick up some advanced dance classes quickly.
