Voyage: It just incorporates clips from the movie into it...I've only seen it a handful of times because I really didn't like that PV much.

Rainbow: It's all about healing one's self, how she has to come to terms with her past. It's kind of like she is two people and breaks in half and then is chasing her other self, the her that is in pain, trying to come to terms with it all. She kisses herself because she is comforting herself. It really goes closely with the lyrics. I think in the end, when she has healed and comes to terms she kind of laughs at it all and the other Ayu, the sad troubled Ayu vanishes.

Daybreak: Someone already explained this one way better than I could. It always reminds me of the word daybreak though, it's like dawn, and if you look, it seems like she is walking just at dawn, just at the break of day.

Game: If you read the lyrics it mentions being lost in a maze with no escape and she's asking why can't she find her way out of this? It also mentions how she can't control the game (life I assume) like she would wish. That goes in with the PV because really, the whole thing seems like a big maze with no escape, sort of like a nightmare or something.

Moments: I'm not sure about this one...I think she needs to tell strange little kids not to play in her house though. But then, they all turn into those weird wooden dummies, so I don't know what that means. I did notice how in the lyrics she mentions "after watching your smile I fall alone quietly" and then it shows her laying on the floor almost as if she is a fallen angel. You could be right too, that she has given her wing to him. I'm not sure.

Hanabi ~Ep II~: I actually think this PV hasn't got any meaning besides Ayu being sad and crying.

Forgiveness: Hrm...I know there is the Ayu who is kind of "captive" down in that potato cellar looking place, and there is the goddess Ayu...maybe the captive Ayu is forgiven and set free to become like the other Ayu?

Ourselves: There's been a lot of discussion of this being a reflection on her career and how she didn't want A Best to be released. It seems like a statement of how people are after her and how she is always under such scrutiny, sort of like her own worst nightmare but at the same time a statment of f--k you too. Also, she mentions in the lyrics that she may have secret sides, I think they played up on that in the PV.

Uh...hope my ramblings have made sense in some way.
