PV Analysis: Kiryu - "Akai Mi Hajiketa"

Active since 2007, Kiryu is a visual kei band with a strong influence from traditional Japanese culture in style and theme, and their music conveys that influence in a modern context. Comprised of Mahiro (vocals), Mitsuki (guitar), Takemasa (guitar), Hiyori (bass), and Junji (drums) their band concept "Tsuuzetsu Nostalgic" is taken to new extremes in the PV for their single "Akai Mi Hajiketa".  They describe the song as expressing the madness that lies in the depths of humans, and the imagery of the PV tells a dark tale.
