It's okay. Personally I think the feel of the PV is too dark for the lightness that is "glitter". The "I'm famous! Woe is me!" scenes are overdone. I think it would've been perfect for "glitter" if they had just done more scenes like the happy dinner scene...in my mind, the short film went like this: "glitter" is when Ayu meets Shawn Yue and they fall in love and have lots of fun, because the song is very hopeful and a happy--not Ayu on vacation in Hawaii happy, but happy in a more optimistic sense--PV would've fit it better.

I envisioned that "fated" would be the PV in which the price of her fame would kick in and we would witness her and Shawn being separated and such. I thought that "fated" would zero in more on why they can't be together because she's/they're famous...I didn't think they'd take so much time in "glitter" outlining that, because I see that as time in which they could've developed the relationship between Ayu and Shawn and thus make their breakup more poignant.

But I'm rambling XD; Overall, it's not a bad PV--a little out of place for "glitter", but maybe once the entire short film is unveiled everything will tie together more smoothly.
