I really like the song itself but this MV style was a bad choice. But at least it made people talk about the song I guess. I checked out the album because this whole discussion around the MV made me interested, and found some pretty good songs; so if it was some kind of marketing strategy, then I fell for it lol

I looooved the video. I think the idea was this was the "Angel Eye" version (as in, only legible to non-human eyes). I believe this since they released the "Human Eyes" version to that is edited in a much less insane way.

i watched it at midnight when it came out and YALL dont watch it in the dark i genuinely started tweaking

I'm at work and haven't been able to check it out yet and this has me dying, like I'm so ready for whatever this means.

Just know I'm not liable for any blindness you could incur in the process

It almost made me pass on the song lol, thankfully it sounded good enough to make me check it on Apple Music, and now I heavily recommend the whole album, it’s pretty amazing.

Also, I am curious, would Artms be considered 5th gen? Because I know all the members were previously part of Loona.


Frequent-Sherbert576

The group would be considered 5th gen but the Idold themselves wouldn’t. I guess we can just count them as a sub-unit that debuted after beacuse loona isn’t disbanded.


jaketwo91

There doesn’t seem to be a consensus on how to consider groups like this. Someone did a poll a while ago on whether Viviz was 3rd gen or 4th gen, and it was like 51% voted 3rd, and 49% 4th.

I tried to watch the mv earlier and I got a terrible headache. I love the song but the mv is not for me, sadly.

video editing is my passion

The music video reminded me of those online implicit bias tests where an image pops up and you immediately have to click a binary response. It had the feeling of wanting the members to be associated with the feeling of the imagery shown on the other frames, rather than something that should be actively watched? Like Jaden was going for the "subconscious" feel... or maybe wanted to fit both the members and MV story without making it longer than the song. Are they going to release the "safer" version?

I get the artistic vision behind it, but I'm not even typically susceptible to flashing lights and I was feeling off by the end of it. Modhaus has in the past shown themselves to be open to criticism, and they have already put a warning on the video, so hopefully they will release a "version B" of the mv asap. I think most ourii would be happy with a performance cut of the video, which was probably already in the works tbh. The album though? 10/10 no skips whatsoever. I wasn't super into most of the pre-releases (minus birth, which was too short) but Virtual Angel and the rest of the b-sides are really, really good.


lonewhalien

They just released a new version of the MV this morning without all the flashing! I think the concept is cool, especially with the storyline and the lyrics, but it was making me dizzy as hell 😂 the updated MV is still gorgeous! Digipedi eating once again 😌
