Music Video

The PV for "Fugainaiya" was directed by Hirano Ayako. The video is set inside of a hedge maze, and has elements reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland and Beauty and the Beast. Each character shown in the video is dressed in a costume that resembles an object; a ribbon, a teddy bear, a candelabra, a pair of scissors, a lamp, and a portrait. A 'maid' character in the video is shown with the actual object before or after the the person dressed in a costume is shown. To tie-in with the theme of Honey & Clover 2, the stacked-animal statue from the opening makes an appearance, and so do two white poodles. YUKI appears only after the bridge, dressed as a large red chair. During the filming of this PV, YUKI was pregnant with her second son.
