[Trending as Cool!] Cool Japanese Music PVs (11–20)
Wonderlandiri
This is a song that collaborated with Sony’s WALKMAN.
It shows scenes of the artist sitting and singing softly inside a certain shop, intercut with different people in different places.
There aren’t any flashy, high-energy moments, but it’s a stylish music video you can quietly take in—more like something you gaze at than something that pumps you up.
Slow Dance feat. BIMSIRUP
A track included on SIRUP’s first album, released in 2019.
It’s also a collaboration with BIM, a young rapper who’s a friend of his.
The softly retro vibe and heavy use of slow-motion blend perfectly with the two young artists living in the now, making it incredibly stylish!
Need Is Your LoveJoji & GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE
This PV, which begins with a sudden and shocking title card, depicts a world where AI-equipped robots are the norm.
What stands out most are the expressions of the characters.
Almost everyone remains expressionless, while only one woman frequently smiles.
It’s a work you’ll want to watch to see how that smile changes amid a love triangle involving men and robots.
Higher (dir. Spikey John)Mall Boyz (Tohji, gummyboy)
This is a PV that expresses the stylish world of Mall Boyz, the unit of rappers Thoji and gummyboy.
Among men, many people are probably paying attention to the fashion as well.
It really makes you want to copy their casual style, doesn’t it? The composition, showing them hanging out with their guy friends, looks cool.
Road Trip (Dir. by Spikey John)Shurkn Pap (MaisonDe)
Produced by Spikey John.
In keeping with the Road Trip theme, it’s a slightly bad-boy–flavored music video of friends riding in a car and having fun.
You can even see people riding on the outside of the car—something you’d never encounter in everyday life—because it creates a purely virtual, MV-only world.
It’s a video packed with yankii (Japanese delinquent) culture.
ART( OBKR / Yaffle Remix ) feat. Gottz,Tohji,Shurkn PapOKAMOTO’S
The music video, created based on ART’s concept of “realizing personal desires,” became a hot topic for its strong storytelling.
A man brandishing a chainsaw appears, as does a baby doll, expressing a surreal worldview.
The video insists that asserting individuality and being true to oneself isn’t just neat and tidy.
