First, I can't believe she chose Shuya as her male counterpart in the PV AGAIN!... Does she have a crush on him or something?
I actually thought CG was way better than in Startin', for example, or any of her videos for that matter... the horse looks completly real to me. Snake is obvious CG, so is that bug (what's the name in English?) and the butterflies.
Really nice to see her in a kimono, although the things she had in her hair - that looked like cheap plastic, kinda distracting. Others were dressed nicely as well, although I have no idea why they were there in the first place (what for?), except for Shuya's character.
The sound effects were distracting also, especially when the flowers grew, it was just too much of a detail to add sfx in that moment.
I actually thought, after the very first scenes of the PV, the whole thing is like an answer to 'poker face', her very first video. There was a tree there with Ayu standing in front, and so there is in this one, but as the video progresses it shows that's not really the concept (although they could have had such in mind).
When a DVD rips comes out, I'm gonna try to do a video edit with part of Me and poker face...
Oh and BTW: I LOVED the plummeting red lipstick <3 The scenes on white background remind me of old Ayu.
