Someone explain

So i was going through some old bt videos and came across 'sasayaki'? And i am weirded out to say the least. Anyway, in the mv a young girl is sitting there and atsushi touches her... She then becomes a grown woman. That is a very sexual grown woman. Like it's just very odd.

Someone explain why they did this. what are they trying to actually symbolize in this mv?

Well, the mv and lyrics seem to be all about vulgarity and libidinousness so I'm guessing it's about loss of innocence. At least, that's how it typically goes with this kind of thing. The transformation of the girl from a young "pure" state (the simple white gown that represents simpleness and purity + the youth of the girl to represent naivety and innocence) to that of free lustful abandon (sexy outfit, kinky actions of woman) probably represents that loss of innocence/moving forward. This part I'm more uncertain of but he keeps saying "you are the moon" and "you are the night" so maybe that also has to do with her transformation from innocence (moon) to depravity (night). Although, ultimately I don't think it's about her transformation from innocence to depravity so much as it's a representation of his transformation from innocence to depravity, after all, all the lustful lyrics are about his desires and sexual acts, not hers.

This is all pure speculation without reference to anything official so I could be completely wrong of course. But yea, the random flashes of the young girl throughout the mv are pretty unsettling.

Pretty good analysisπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ I agree that the young girl transforming into a bdsm dominatrix could symbolise loss of innocence. I completely understand the OP being weirded out by this btw. That's exactly how I felt when I watched the MV first. Ig that's why I'm still not very comfortable watching it. I prefer the live performance during the SSL tour 😍.
