Thoughts on 1 LOVE PV

ruixiong89: Otaku is person who is obsessed (to an unhealthy level) with anime/manga/idol...etc. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otaku)

Ayu's pole dancing blown me away... she is so sexy! That otaku looks real to me O_O I wonder what is that censored thing he is holding (a nxde figure maybe... ) And the beast, I am amazed by the makeup... the teeth and fury skin... woa!

The ending is a surprise to me... I thought the police gets to run away...

I love Ayu's outfit! The pole dancing it's ok but I could have been better imo, she doesn't dance a lot. anyway she looks sexy!
I don't like the clown it reminds me of alterna's one, they're scary! The pv is good though I prefer (talking about dark pvs) Game style.

Really suprising ending, I was expecting them to all get busted and that evil clown get what he deserves.

anyone else noticed the v for vendetta mask (appears @ 00:39)? thought that's really interesting.

pole dance

I watched the PV a lot of times, and I'm quite confirmed the woman at the end is Ayu. If you refer to the Vivi Diary, you'll realise the police is someone looking like Ayu in her KOSE CM feat. I am ... as the background music. The sharp vampire mascara CM. If you look at the PV, yup, it's her all right. It's just that her hair is pulled back and she's wearing his black headband. I think the camera zooming makes it a bit difficult to see but if you watch the HQ version, yup, it's definitely her.

Make that obsessed to an unhealthy level. Heh.

The PV had me captivated from the beginning to the end, it was awesome. But the ending made it all so much better. The scene with the police woman gave me such a horrible feeling (especially since she looked pretty).

Lets go there and save her.

[the angel song]

Wow, I didn't think pole-dancing could look so classy(!)

This video has so much energy and atomsphere. I love it when she does stuff like this!

[ruixiong89]

Ooo ... as an extra, do you remember when we first got shots of the PV (as a sneak preview) provided by CeS? Well, go dig that thread up! You'll see CeS's friend and Ces's friend's friend. They appear 1 minute and 53-54 seconds into the video. Not to mention if you notice the video more, you'll notice that they're seated in the front row of the top left corner (as from your viewer's perspective) of the stage, with Ayu facing the front, with the assumption that you're taking an aerial view.

Yup, and Ayu's not the only police, there's two other guys behind her struggling when they're put on auction at the end of the PV.

Does anyone think that the PV felt like a Lumix commercial very very momentarily when you heard the camera snap coming from the ring camera? Haha, it's so reminiscent of the Lumix CMs.

[truehappiness]

Lumix MINIFX~ ;p

I can't imagine a real camera-thing like that though.. O_O

[Keishi]

can someone screencap which one is CeS?

Good PV. I liked it. I don't enjoy the song much except the chorus, but the PV is good stuff.

The otaku probably had hentai pictures?

I also loved the mask that police Ayu was wearing.

@Keishi - there's pictures of her in this thread,

Ah I see now. I was skimming so I didn't really notice. Thank you.

[Butterknife]

The PV is brilliant!!! I love when she does darker PV's like ourselves, which is my favourite PV ever created.. The ending was so great, I like that throughout it, it had a coherent concept ( the underground freak market, police coming in to bust it. ) The set was beautiful, and 1 Love is a bad ass song. It was all great <3. I also felt like it was a lumix commercial once the camera popped up for the first time. The camera snap sounded exactly the same as it does in the commercials, also the view of the camera lens is really similar to the commercials too.

Also did anyone else think that eater guy was disgusting? x-x.

But oh well, the whole storyline makes up for it I guess. Although I wonder why does she labeled as musician, instead of dancer.

Not really. Honestly I don't really find the idea of Koda's dancing in this pv exciting... probably it wouldn't be fun to see especailly due to the style of the song. I liked Ayu's pole dancing. It was sexy enough without being too over-the-top and ending up distasteful.

[Surreal]

I can't believe you guys totally missed the fact that THE POLICE IS AYU!!! Look at the eyes behind the mask! And slow down the video when the police was struggling.

[immel]

I must say I agree with Demure, although I have never seen Koda dancing so I can't comment on that part.

Ayumi's pole dancing was not the main feature of the PV and it didn't make any tries on being suggestive enough to make it sell because of that, the message of the PV is something completely different, deeper, and it maintains a story. The story of people being sold, how people are not accepted in the community, how things & people being and acting weird sells in the media of todays community... and it ends with a twist to it, a horrible little twist.

I noticed it! I can't seem to get a screencap of it because it flashes by way too quickly.

[SnowDrop]

To be honest, I don't think this PV is so good.

It was pretty boring and repetive. I guess I was expecting too much. >_<
