I thought it was very different, but absolutely amazing. I was very impressed with it overall. The lingerie scenes were gorgeous and she looked stunningly beautiful throughout the entire video. I especially loved the part in the phone booth.

I so agree with you Bondy. I just finished watching the PV and I. LUVED. IT. Ayumi should off a great sense of style (I LOVED THE BOOTS! THE BOOTS OWNED THE PV). OMG, I so luved the red dress (Holy tree! She must have spent thousands dollars on that dress! ) ANd OMG, Woot! Go, Sexy Ayumi! Show Koda Kumi that you can look sexy without looking whory in a lingerie (Koda had a red piece fugly lingerie....and yea, she looked whory! Sorry my fellow kuu fans. )! I wasn't too fond of the scene where she was in black. I was cute but it sort made ayu look old. My fave scene though, is when she was trapped in the glass box. Woooo, Ayu looked so fierce and sexy. I have more faith in the single selling well now.

@Meighy: I don't think she was try to look like "super-sexy" or anything. I don't think she's old either. 30 does not mean your old.

It was her best PV in a while.
But.
She waited a bit too long to decide to be sexy.
I mean, come on. Be sexy at age 23 or whatever. Not 30.
I'm not buying the whole SEXY! image at all, since the Ayu I love is just. . . Ayu.

And AYU is not some sexy J-pop singer, she's just her own person

I was a bit underwhelmed, I admit. Usually I don't care if I get a visually-centered PV from Ayu, but from this single I was really hoping for something grand. By the end of the first verse I realized that I had spent the whole time watching her walk across a bridge and didn't feel so entertained.

I kept waiting for something to happen involving the men in suits. But beyond the booth scene, nothing much. Oh well. Still pleasing to watch.

everybody's making some fuss again? =/

mmm...

I say I LOVE it and I'm not gonna hear other statements

what I love is that finally Hamasaki is trying to be wild & sexy - of course maybe overacted a bit...

now a small dispute:

when I started watching the PV the parts with agents and lingerie bits in the beggining so much fit the musical acoustic beggining, for the atmosphere...
then drums - and Ayu's on bridge, spies and such...her heels on the bridge, her gait fits the drums very well I think...
when I watched this piece I thought - what a cool PV, there's a plot in it, yay! Ayu is watched by spies, she's agent 007, maybe she'll watch smbd too or will fight with the spies on the Effel Tower?

hell no...after the bridge part the PV turned into a mess...I mean, they put more images of hers...from all of them I like the white dress in da booth...I hate the red dress! =/ so they put them, the lingerie Ayu is nyaaaaaa! sexiiiiiiii, awww, loveeee ...so they put them all so unwisely...I mean, there werent a single connection between the images except the spies...but if they put more thought into it I thin the PV would be better...

I waited for some noir battle action scenes XDDDD

I found this dark feathers part very useless....it doesn't resmble Kuu for me though...I dislike it how ppl start already here: "OMG, she's coping Kuu!" bla-bla-bla...hate that

but wtf? I LOVE THE PV!

I know....I should have been it's director - believe me, I know howto use Paris, spies and lingerie!

PS it's very different and I love it...I'm tired of Marionette, 1LOVE 'usual Ayu PV style'

The worst and the best PV ever. Seriously, I pretty hate and love it. The same time it is pretty it is scary. Well, I really know I'll love the PV to death in this and in the other weeks and that's why I am posting this weird comment here.

AYU, DON'T ACT LIKE A DIVA SINGING HER HIT!
- i'm walkin', posin' & singin' my own song!

AYU, DON'T ACT LIKE A PROSTITUTE WHO YOU AREN'T
- i'm so sexy!

AYU, DON'T PUT WEIRD MAKE-UPS IN YOUR SWEETY FACE!
- i'm so scary!

That's why I'll always love Ayu. She do things for her, not for people around. She's stylish, she's the best. Oh no, I'm acting like a non-life fan, let me leave this topic now.

If the lingerie scene and alterna scene was taken out, I probably would have liked this pv. Those 2 scene makes it random to me.

really?? i thought her lingerie scenes were really hot lol but the alterna stuff was kind'a random so i would agree on that.

beautiful pv, bad editing. could've been better, but if i were ayu, i would never work with that editor/director/whoever managed to mess it up again

i definitely think it's a biiig step up from the GUILTY PVs...by a long shot.

i do think that there could have been a different direction taken, but i think it seems to be the best thought out PV she's turned out since i guess 1 LOVE.

I don't get the where the "30 is too old" comments are coming from, yeah if she was like 60 or something and did the lingerie scene, I'd be very scared, but 30 is not old!

I don't why people think Koda started the "whole sexy" thing in Japan and why she's the only one who can do it.

Probably because Japan is more focused on being cutesy. There's few artist that do the sexy thing. Off the top of of my head, the only other person besides Koda that does it is Maki Goto.

hmmm not sure what most people were expecting from a ROCK song + Paris...coz i couldnt see a single link at all
and when i knew 5 styles were showing up, it was definitely a "STYLES" MV...(which i totally loveee...i like to see different looks of artistes)
and when Ayu was told to be in a gown, i knew..something seemed pretty weird already...rock song in gown??

so here..here's my take...
actually i wished it was longer!!!! I mean, Yes, they are trying to catch her i suppose...BUT WHY? and yea, some facial expressions are really funny...lOl...especially the first half on the bridge...being like random hand movements...

and that big red dress...she look so...burdened by it i feel BUT SHE WAS PRETTY...it was just that when she was on the floor, the camera also stood still and with such a HIGHLY 'moving' song, the camera should have move in directions so bring out more dramatism... the dove thing...I tot it was very Paris..as in, fits the mood HAHA

I tot the feathers wan was quite...sudden and good. haha. it's like a sideline ayu..ayu behind kinda thing. and yea, quite 'alterna'

i dunno why Lingerie AYu was there LOL...but i was glad she sang some Woahs and Yeahs...

the phone booth wan..Yes, her expressions were funny ahhaha...but she called for help didnt she? to be taken away...

on the whole, i think there is some very subtle plot...(catching here..) but mainly eye-candy..and i adore that...
those who say it can be better...yea i can be, if they showed more of wad happened before or soemthing...

But i do LOVE IT! its different .. and she looks great...and Paris!
