PV was boring, the ink thing looked grossssss. She looked really good on the couch scenes though, and I'm sure it's ladden with symbolism. I just didn't care for it

Hmm. The song isnt that dark to me though...

I love the pv but same as alot of people here.. I can't really understand the meaning of the pv.

My first thought was that...

The ink... represents her thoughts...
The words she wants to express.. the thoughts she wants to express... it's overflowing...

Then the mess in the room.. represents the frustrations in her?

Fingers bandaged because of creating the mess in her room.. she accidentally cuts herself with glasses...

She wants to express...
Yet she couldn't do it clearly...

Then the scenes with her playing with dogs..
Seemed like someone video-ed her...

So maybe in the pv...

She lost the "someone" and have many things to tell the "someone"


I agree that the ink kind of scared me. LOL

Wow, it's been a while since i posted on here, lol. But this is a really interesting topic and I feel like giving my two cents...

Anyway, I'm guessing the Black Ink was supposed to represent sadness/depression, etc. etc. After her lover died, all of these emotions slowly covered her up, up until the point where it constricted her and made it almost impossible for her to see, much less even breathe. She tried to take it off too, in the later part of the PV, but failed and instead, makes a mess out of herself.

Grief has overcome her too much from her loss. So much, that she can't let go and move on anymore. Even if she tried to, it would still stay and haunt her, and there is nothing she really can do about it. This grief is slowly killing her in the way the oil is covering her up, but making it hard to see reality and to breathe freely.

I think the scene with her dogs was in fact her lover filming her. She does look back (lovingly) at the camera a few times....

The scene with her messed up room is pretty much self-explanatory. She's upset/frustrated about this loss. Maybe she tried to destroy everything that reminded her of her lover, thus resulting in injuring herself. This all comes back to the idea that, her emotions are eating her away, and she can't see what is the truth anymore. She's slowly becoming the reason for her own (emotional and mental) death.

Overall a very interesting PV . Hehe, I thought the oil was pretty cool........

i don't suppose it has anything to do with the gulf of mexico oil spill? it just seems so uncanny in timing that she would release a video in which she is covered in oil, ink, or whatever it is right when this disaster is going on.

i'm sure its probably as people in the thread have described it, which makes a lot of sense. i really like that scene. as i've said before, the weirder the PV the better. unfortunately, i felt like some of the other scenes just went on for too long and the PV as a whole is a little underwhelming. i would say i like it, but don't love it.

People...
Old video with happy Ayu + dog
Recent video with sad Ayu + no dog

Conclusion = Dog is gone
There is no big mystery here... Didn't Maron got cancer or something recently?

You think this PV is dedicated to a supposed deceased dog...?

What truehappiness said about it being filmed by the lover who is now gone makes more sense and was what I'd think everyone would assume immediately..

Considering Ayumi has ayupan figures for her dogs and how much love she shows for them, I wouldn't be surprised at all, even if I find it to be very pathetic

But like, I respect whatever you view this PV as, and of course PVs don't always equal the song's message, but this song is about two lovers and the anguish of one of them... There had to have been someone behind the camera sharing that lovely time with her, like with BoA's Eien PV, so it's an obvious past-present happy-sad comparison, even if the dog isn't in the present part. I don't think she would've gone so dramatic with it to make it about her dog.

It was explained that the scenes with Ayu and the dog were to be filmed as though a loved one had filmed them.

Basically, the PV is about a lost love and the dog was just there to make the scene a bit more realistic. I think Ayu said she wanted to have the dog there so she'd look more "joyful" or something.

So it seems that someone who Ayu loved quite a bit has left her for whaever reason in this video, and she's sort of just feeling broken because of it. The dog didn't disappear... and it'd be weird if the dog was there when she was depressed or whatever.

I absolutely loved it. Beautiful PV; I really really hope it's a trilogy...I'd LOVE for there to be a continuation

I thought the scenes with ink were like...the ink dripping on the paper was like, a leak, right? So maybe the ink dripping on Ayu was like a leak in her heart caused by the loved one filming the Cocoa scene leaving or dying, or whatever happened to them? And perhaps then the trashed house represents her breaking heart?
Or...am I just digging for conclusions...?

The ink part was cool, but that didn't necessarily save the PV for me.
