I'm uncomfortable with the content of PVs like snowy kiss etc., too. I also think she's singing about Mannie, and perhaps her past relationships in general, but even given metaphor and artistic direction, I don't know why you would want to act out a scene like that with a new love--the literally violent end to a relationship--and present it to a public who has only just learned you're together. Also, how could you ever bring yourself to watch the result?
Watching them smack each other around in despair makes me really uncomfortable.
I don't know...Ayu's been much more into sort of..."literal" or real-life-ish (as opposed to fantastical PVs with no apparent setting, like ourselves, STEP you, forgiveness, or even BALLAD) stories in her videos. Maybe that's what makes me uncomfortable? She's very obviously presenting a real relationship she's had/is having, and doing so with actual romantic partners in actual locations "as themselves." So while I don't think this is what their relationship is like in reality, it feels somehow just real enough to make me uncomfortable watching.
