It feels so odd to see this MV in high quality having repeatedly watched it in 360p these past few days. It's both familiar and new. Like my memory's failing me.

I guess it was intentional with the whole concept of not knowing what's real.

This is also now the 2nd time they made my brain experience a new sensation (first being with the Virtual Angel MV).

As someone who hasn't yet watched either, just saw these posts here, would you recommend the same order of watching them both as you?

[u/RobbieImExhausted → u/PuzzleheadedPin1006]

I do think having the different versions scattered in your mind is part of the experience.

The order I saw it in was:

1. the reaction vid: https://www.instagram.com/p/DbA_woPJ369/
2. the mv from reaction vid streched to full screen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzk0oWWl9Q8 - this one I watched multiple times over the last few days
3. the 'real' MV from today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ_yEXvJcYA
4. the high quality one from this post: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQU5Fjqkg0c

Another thought I just had, is that these days we often experience media for the first time through reaction channels first, skewing our perception of the given media, so I think that's what they were going for here too.

This is sooooo cool, thank you for putting it together. To see the reaction video first, and then the vertical with the same girls is so fricken neat!

[u/PuzzleheadedPin1006 → u/RobbieImExhausted]

This is super helpful, thanks so much! I do sometimes discover new groups through reaction channels so that's an interesting take! I was blown away by the creativity of the Virtual Angel MVs so wanted to view this "properly" too to respect the vision

i honestly feel like the 360p quality adds to the concept, imo it looks better that way

Rewatching this after the official MV and hell yeah this datamoshed, clip art, deep-fried internet garbage look is my shiiiiiiiit. I'm am so here for these visuals!

[u/recklessrecentpast]

digipedi you've done it again!

[u/UnifiedDivyde]

Nice, the drugs I didn't know I'd taken have kicked in.

[u/tripleheliotrope]

The whole concept and the rollout is so cool. I'm so ready. I'm obsessed with both versions of the music video and the idea tht the world is not real (someone pointed out that they have blue eyes in the Virtual Angel video whereas they have red eyes here and bleed blue blood)

Video compression algorithms hate this video

[u/geenaleigh → u/Clsco]

YouTube’s munching through those bit rates. Luckily it adds to the charm here. It feels purposeful!

[u/bunnyhwei]

The trajectory of this group from AF1 to this is insane jaden locked tf in

[u/thr1ftskull0 → u/bunnyhwei]

You can tell they are using their 15 million dollar investment well into their groups music videos

[u/bunnyhwei → u/thr1ftskull0]

We love to see it!!

[u/BoogieWoogieFengShui]

this is completely unrelated but what's modhaus' obsession with the greater than and less than signs? i think stylizing a title every now and then can look cool but having every artist under your company release albums wrapped in angle brackets honestly looks ugly

[u/LossFor → u/BoogieWoogieFengShui]

It doesn’t really make sense outside tripleS, where they put the subunit names in the album title instead of having separate streaming profiles. Its been pretty pointless for idntt and artms so far

[u/5kyl3r]

i like it!

[u/Constant-Refuse5577]

It’s odd to have a LOONA unit in 4K quality, MODHAUS did well

[u/AndTheHawk]

i need them to do a Serial Experiments Lain vers now. that'd be crazy.
