I'm currently suffering from a serious case of KAMEN pv overdose + side-effects. ^^;;;; As I'm sitting here writing I'm feeling mentally and physically exhausted due to all the screaming... screeching... kyaai'ing... drooling... hyperventilating and dying I've experienced in the past 24hrs...and ^^;;;;; I have a feeling I'm going to be in this state for quite some days to come. LOL...SO HAS EVERYONE SEEN THE PV NOW?!??! If not...then... *WHACKSMACK* GAAAAHHHHH what the heck you waiting for?!??! STOP READING THIS RIGHT NOW and get your butt over to JC (or wherever else!) and download THE GEM!!!!!!!!! GO GO GOOOOOOO!!!!! (and once you've downloaded don't forget to show it to everyone else - YES even those who aren't T&T fans..hohohooooo...)

*ahem* ANYWAYYSSSS...KYAAA isn't the PV just awesome?!??!?! It was SO MUCH BETTER than I expected it to be. I must admit although I loved what I saw in the previews clips - imo it didn't look as good as the Yumemo or Serenade pv (my two absolute faves!)...but...now...after watching the whole thing I REALLY REALLY DON'T KNOW ANYMORE!!! I mean loved Yumemo coz it was so energetic... so electric and of course both the Ts looked really kakkoii as well (not that they don't look kakkoii in their other pvs but I just LOVED their Yumemo look) And I love Serenade...cos the whole pv is so kirei - love the sets...love the outfits...LOVED the DANCE + multi-function props...but... really do think the Kamen pv is fantastic as well. Again - it's just so artistic (thought-provoking concepts - packed to the brim with all sorts of symbolisms like True Heart was...and Serenade to an extent!)...it's classy, it's stylish, the editing is SUGOI and of course the subtle-eroness is a HUGE PLUS as well!!!! I really am so impressed at how cleverly thought out the whole thing was esp. like how they place certain scenes in certain parts of the pv to match the pace of the melody!!!! I mean LOL ok yes - I have to say I did get a lil dizzy watching the pv the first time especially all the bits with the revolving room cos the camerawork/editing was super super quick but I think that itself is what gave the whole thing it's incredible energy!!!!

BUT saying that ---> GAWDDDD it made screencapping an absolute nightmare!!!! At the end of my screencapping session I had about 90 caps which took me forever to get cos I had to keep pausing/rewinding and jogging the thing back and forth in order to get the image I wanted and even after taking the 90 caps there was still a lot images which I wasn't able to capture ><" nvm...here are a handful of the better ones I took...plus a whole load of waffly comments...^^;;;;

Firstly -> all the masks that were featured in the pv were so gorgeous (no sightings of those ugly and kowai GREEN MASK2 masks wooohoooo...) I really like the scene the first pic was taken from...LOL Takki's playing peek-a-boo! XD XD XD KAWAAAIIIII!!!! And then ooohhh the mask Tsuba's holding ---> it's SOOOOO phantom of the opera / masquerade ball...ahhh suddenly thinking about that masquerade ball in Romeo and Juliet where R&J meet for the first (I think?! can't really remember since a good 6/7 years has past since I studied this play XD) time and they're wearing masks *(or was it just Romeo who wore the mask?!><") and they did that palm-to-palm thing which I think is suppose to symbolise a kiss?!?! ooohhhhh can you imagine T&T acting out that scene?!?! GOSH they would be SO PERFECT! I mean afterall they ARE R&J!!! XD XD XD *ahem* moving on swiftly -> the red/orange/yellow phantom of the opera masks...AGAIN heart...actually heart a lil more than masquerade ones simply becos these were used in the BEST SCENE out of the whole pv!!! (more later about that scene) Hmm I wonder if you took each half and try to put them together would they actually 'fit'?!?!?! *ponders* Oh another thing - I LOVE the colours of the masks!!!! oohhh symbolism -> colour connotations...keke...yah I know I'm like SO over-analysing everything! BUT kyaa not my fault it's those courses I took at uni...><

The gold banners remind me so much of ODOD XD except a lot more classier, more mature and sexier too...I love the contrast in colours between the gold banners, T&Ts black suits and red dancing props...I mean err...red dancers. XD XD XD speaking of which - it's kinda refreshing to see female dancers appearing in their pv's don't you think?!?! I mean I didn't really mind them cos there really wasn't that much emphasis on them. But saying that - what I DID mind however was that one (or two?!) dancer/s who was all over Tsuba *kicks that/those particular dancing red prop away* GET OFF HIM YO!!!!! DON'T YOU KNOW HE'S TAKEN!!!!!! lol...j/k j/k...Tsuba was like totally ignoring her/them anyways. *pats Tsuba on head...good boy...good boy...* btw is it me or were those dancers only all over Tsuba?!? I'm sure I didn't see any of them touching Takki! XD LOLLLL maybe that explains that cute lil twirl he did...to get away from the dancing red props! Or of course I could be wrong - maybe dancers did feel up Takki too but my brain just chooses not to register it. XDXDXD

I SO *heart* the person/ppl who edited this pv! (hmm wonder if T&T had a say in it at all?!?!) BANZAIIII!!!! There were SO MANY paints scenes dotted here and there and EVERYWHERE!!! Yvie likey...Yvie likey so so muchhhh...KYAA I tell ya...the ones that got to me the most though were the two near the end of the PV (above - pic 3 + 4) waakakakakaka...experienced severe-heart-attack number gawd-knows-what when I saw the one of Takki...def his most INTENSELY-ELECTRIFYING PAINT SHOT OUT OF THE WHOLE PV!!!! I mean ok so Takki's stare is pretty much LETHAL all the time *thud* but this time....holy mamaaaa miaaaaaa...fudge fudge fudge...INSTANT INSTANT DEATH BY TAKKI'S STARE!!!!!!!! WAAAHHHHH TAKIZAWA DON'T STARE AT US LIKE THAT!!!!! OUR POOR POOR LIL HEARTS!!!! *fan fan fan*

As for Tsuba's...OH MY LORD --->THE PAINT!!! THE BLOOD RED PAINT!!!! Eyes literally popped out of sockets (actually erm...they were already out of sockets XD) when I saw that scene and then of course brain started to come up with all these super-whacked ideas of T&T as Lestat and Louis from Interview with the Vampire...kekeke.... XD honto gomen nasai for being a bit freaky haha...but I've ALWAYS fancied the idea of T&T as vamps - esp TAKKI with his porcelain WHITE SKIN and fetish for BLOOD!!!!! *thud* LOL bet he got all high seeing Tsuba covered in BLOOD RED PAINT!!! muwahahahaha...back to Tsuba -> you know it wasn't just the red paint which got to me though - check out the way he was 'communicating' with his eyes!!!! WOOOAAAHHH!!! And who could forget the way he slowly...oh so slowly and seductively dragged his fingers down his face. *jaw scrapes floor* TSU-BA-SAAAAAAA YOOUUU ERO THANG YOU!!!!

*random thought ---> I hope they went for a facial after filming the pv though - the paint can't have been good for their skin...LOL unless it was some kind of sauce of course...then it would be fine...*licks sauce off Takki & Tsuba...mmmm yummmmy* XD XD XD

LOL what can I say - this scene wins hands down in every category possible... kakkoiiness...eroness...sexiness...stylishness (errrr...is that even a word!??! ahhh who cares...) It is no doubt THE best scene out of the whole pv and I'm so so SOOOOO glad they LEFT THIS OUT of the previews...!!!! Thank you thank you THANK YOU for saving 'the best till last' - what a treat!!!!! LOL you know - when Sandy emailed me (*heart hug chuuu YOU*) and told me that not only was there one ext ext important scene left out of the preview but it's SO MUCH better than the paint and hadaka scenes - my first reaction was actually ---> USSOOOOO!!!! How could it poss get any better than the paint?!?! but then *ding... lightbulb* ---> waaahhhh unless....TXT INTERACTION!!!!! D/Ls HAYAKUUUUUUUU ~~~~~~ and when I saw *that* scene -> $&£*{}{&£*$£$£$FEWIEU£UEDQ":$@:£%{<£$^:"$:^"?@:£$:!@":£"$!*£"$)I(&TGJWIY*"£("%)(£%OL:L£OR{"L£j("$*(" *hyperventilates... dies a trillion times* No amount words could possibly describe how I felt at that one moment (and still do) over that scene...it simply took my breath away!!!! MOE MOE MOEEEEE ~~~~~~ Gomen the caps really do not do it any justice...

The whole segment was so beautiful to watch and the fact that it was filmed in 'slow-motion' just added to the whole feel!!!! Kyaaaa getting super-high+hot just thinking about it!!!!! I totally loved the whole theatrical/phantom of the opera (maybe even a lil Matrix stylee?!) feel to it...LOVE way they were REACHING out for each other (LOL at first I thought they were going to reach other and grab each others hands!!!! *thud*...in yvie's dreams...^^;;;;)...AND of course - probably THE NUMERO UNO thing I *heart* to death is...dun dun dunnnnn....OF COURSE THE EYE CONTACT!!!!! OMG!!!!! I tell ya - it soooo is ALL ABOUT EYE CONTACT between those two!!!! Intense...deep...passionate...it was ALL ABOUT TXT and ONLY TXT!!!! Maybe that's why I get so giddy when I watch/think about it?!?! I mean it has been a while since we've seen them SO ENGROSSED with each other.

RANDOM: Actually erm...I don't know whether it's just me (lol prob is) but it felt kinda peeping-tom-ish as well...like it's one of those moments which is so 'private' and so erotic that you feel like you shouldn't be watching but at the same time you can't help but watch esp cos it's so ELECTRIC between them... LOLLL ok I'm soooo not making any sense at all... GAAAHHH... Freud/psychoanalysis/Laura Mulvey is coming back to HAUNT ME!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

*ahem* but anyways - the hadaka scene does make SO MUCH MORE sense now...LOL thanks to this scene - it's def not as random as I initially thought it to be...*more ero-thoughts flying about in head* Channel @ please please PLEASE show us lots and lots and LOTS of footage for the making of...of this scene! ONEGAAAIIIII!!!! Random side note again: I bet T&T NG on this scene soooo many times!!! LOL can so imagine them cracking up whenever they stared at each other...or should I say - I can imagine Takki cracking up (and BLUSHING!) whenever he had to look into Tsuba's eyes. Seems like Tsuba has no problem STARING at his aikata...don't blame him - if I had an aikata as BEAUTIFUL as that my eyes would be GLUED to him too XD

REVOLVING ROOM SCENE!!!! ---> of course still love this scene a lot (lol even if it did make my eyes go all funny XD) BUT one COMPLAINT - the speed of editing made it so so soooooo difficult to watch (analyse) all the dance moves!!!! *cough* stoopid *cough* black *cough* panels *cough*...here was me thinking (+hoping) that I'd be able to see the complete dance once I saw the whole pv but nope - it was the complete opposite. LOL actually had to *try* and mentally piece together all the dance moves bit by bit myself - which was soooo hard!!! But the bits I managed to catch looked damn good though - esp the whole 'ai sekai' move (Takki behind/top, Tsuba 'grinding' in front/bottom), when they face each other and roll their hips fowards, when they pointed upwards and whenever they threw their heads back!!!!! *thud* SEEEEXXXYYYYYYYYY!!!!! But then I can't help thinking - are they really gonna to dance ALL THESE MOVES??!?! cos well...you know how they tend to sing a 'shortened' version on tv...well if it's shortened then it seems quite poss that they'll leave out some of the moves too right?!?!? (ok don't know what I'm talking about XD) waaahhhh looking forward to the performance EVEN MORE now!!!!!

OH and one more thing before I shut-up...don't you just LOVE the fact that THERE IS NO MASK2 FILM FOOTAGE WEAVED IN ANY SHAPE OF FORM INTO THIS WORK OF ART!!?!?!?!! cos I certainly LOVE (and not to mention damn relieved too...can't even begin to imagine how much it would've RUINED the whole of this pv!!!! ^^;;;;;) WAKAKAKAKAKAKAA...... UUUURESSSSHHHHHIIIIIIII!!!! Thank you thank you THANK YOUUUU KAMISAMA!!!! *jumps up and down...dances around room...throws confetti...bounces off walls...* I LOOOVVVVVEEEE KAMEN PV!!!!!!! (and seems like everyone else does too!!!!) *chuuuuuglomp T&T* THANK YOU/BIG PAT ON THE BACK BOYS and all the production peeps for a job well done!!!!!! You have truly made every single one of us T&T fangirls bery bery bery HAPPY!!!!! *ahem* nehooo...yvie -> OVER and OUT and OFF TO BED XD
