Sunrise PV thoughts

[vampireknightzero]

It's an okay pv, i do enjoy it

[Andali]

it was fun, but I thought very Western. I like Ayu's arty PVs.

[ayu_ready?]

okay, I say the PV kinda didn't make me love it or hate it, it left zero impression and I felt very indifferent towards it

I didn't like the song from the beggining, but Ayu's PVs sometimes make you like song. this one just left me feeling blank. I'm not interested in watching it again too

Ayu's hair was to imitate wet beach hair but it didn't look pretty
her shoes were hilarious, though her outfit was so nice, but probably it should have been another color

the stage was cool. I already posted I hate her dancers. they with mics looked very stupid. then, the ahem *choreography* was so hilarious too! because they just jumped with towels? I was like, WTF? it may be good for Mini Moni, but for a mature woman? it doesn't look kawaii at all

I'm not insisting on showing every fan out of 300 people, but at least maybe showing the crowd more to get the feeling

so I felt blank watching it, then I felt annoyed, because they continue-ously (did I post it right? haha) showed Ayu & her dancers jumping with towels for nearly 3 min or more...it looked so stupid, no, really

as far as I got it, the PV was to imitate upcoming a-nation and Ayulive
hmm, well, I think it didn't make it

exactly what i thought, because I hadn't really heard the songs before (the recording on youtube did not help at all), i was hoping that I would like it when I watched the PV, but nooooooooooooooooo. and Sunrise and Sunset are on the same set, the same thing, the same mic, same dancers and same audience.

[RPGames]

Its cute but sorta boring! Same scene entire time lol. What else did Wataru direct?

That's what I've been feeling about her PV's lately too. I still like her PVs a lot, but they just don't feel as... special? as they used to. :/

[maze]

so boring D:

[JinHamasaki]

why is everyone comparing this to fairyland? fairyland budget = $2 mil, Sunrise ~LOVE is ALL~ = something like $200k XD

Budget doesn't necessarily have anything to do with quality. If you have a good concept, the budget is secondary.

But I didn't say that. I just stated that's what the opinion was on 2ch. All I stated as fact was that a filter is only used on her close ups and not the far shots. People can draw their own conclusions from that.

So why not compare it to BLUE BIRD, which is the same concept - Ayu having fun. BLUE BIRD still wins out because better scenary though, but also suffers from no plot.

A budget like Sunrise could never match fairyland, well, you can have computer effects blow up the structure with the TA members on it?

[Aisha_Angel]

^LMAO...Not even 200K. Britney's Slave 4 U video was like 88K and that video was 1,000,000 times better than this.

[rakeru]

^ such heresy!

anyway, i feel the same way about it as i do the other "mic"/party PVs (Fly high, Humming 7/4, etc). fun and charming, but depth preferred.

[rainydayumi]

i dont know what to say.. i just saw the pv and its so simple and normal.. i wish it was more original like the marioette pv..

[Polyrhythm]

I don't have a problem with the white light. I really dont care if it make's Ayu look younger or w/e, I just like that it makes the whole scene very bright...like a fun summer day should be. It just sets the right tone.

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

#1 energyfull and summerish

#2 ayu doesn't act, no fishlips or sexy poses, she's natural and gorgeous

#3 I like the light, the outfits, the location and the hairstyle

#4 TA members don't appear too much

#5 a little bit repeatitive, but's ok

[foxhana]

actually there is like one second of fishlips. ^^ Which is why I know she is lip syncing. All PVs are lip synced. so no complains here, i just wish she would not make it so obvious..

[JackieRos]

and i thought i was the only one who hated it
i swear i havent watched that video and wont ever again

[Surreal]

wouldn't watch it a 2nd time. but she looked real pretty and exceptionally tall because of her legs. love her hair, make-up, love the lighting too.

LOVE the staircase stage. sooo unique!

and happy cute ayu = nice.

her overly exaggerated lip movement is really annoying me though. her lip-syncing is getting so bad.

[Aisha_Angel]

With all of the fish-lipping she does her lips probably get stuck together because of her lip gloss.

[asmAyumi1992]

At first, I thought Ayu will use the TA members as the students in school. I thought Ayu would use school as the background. But I was wrong. But I still like the PV.
