I think because people see Loveppears, Duty, I am, etc. as the "Classic songs," they will like the PV more simply because of that.

Like evolution is nothing but an upbeat version of flyhigh.
Without the audience.
And only one ayumi.

It's not bad, but I think it's not fair to say that her pvs in the past were so godlike, and then now so bad.
It sounds so confucian to say it like that. ahaha.

Like, to me, Dearest, Rainbow, Momentum, JEWEL, evolution, SURREAL, they were all about glamourous, star images.
They had storylines of course, but you know like, they also had that glamour glamour sort of feel.
To me, at least.

Her pvs now are really NO DIFFERENT than the pvs she used to make.
Mirrorcle World is a darker version (and more twisted / sexy) of Dearest, her running from people trying to control her.
Marionette's storyline and visuals remind me of alterna, Ladies Night.
don't leave me alone reminds me of any PV where she has had ugly clothes.

Like, look at Depend on You, You, trust, poker face.
Yeah sure, maybe they have storyline, but I prefer Mirrorcle World over combination of all of those.

Like, Boys & Girls, to me, was her first glamour pv.
All it was was her. In the yellow rooms.
That's it.

I think it's just people wanting to go back to songs that were in the olden days, like confucians. w~
Because obviously, if you don't feel as strongly about the song, you won't like the PV.
So I just feel that even though I don't really like Dearest PV,
Many people do because it IS Dearest, the song.
