Updated with this GIF.  That is neither Heyx3 or FD.  But love Nino here, cracks me up, lol.  I'll make a better GIF when I get a chance, but this will have to do for now. :P  Updated w/a much better GIF, courtesy of aya_mcdonald.^^  Thanks Aya! <3

The performance was Heyx3 wasn't as disturbing to me as it was slightly sluggish, compared to the Music Station performance. The MS version just blew the song away, whereas I guess the energy level in this performance is slightly lower (perhaps it's due to a mixture of Nino's injury plus it's their first time performing the song.) Nonetheless, it's still fun to watch, but a bit of an anti-climax considering it aired after MS.

And you just *know* that Nino's back in the MS performance. Absolutely spot-on in his moves and he has a sort of finesse which I don't normally see in his dancing. Awesome stuff.

Yes! Sluggish is a good way to put it. Though the superficial side of me liked how they looked in the Heyx3 (outfits, hair) better than in the MS. Most likely they were able to keep outfits and hair closer to the PV style as they didn't have to tone down for a Love So Sweet performance. :)

True. I like it that even though the outfits were entirely black, it still varied significantly from member to member. The styling for the Face Down CD Jacket Cover is another matter though. It looked like the stylist just piled onto the boys whatever he could find in his wardrobe.

When I first saw those CD jacket covers, major headdesk moment. (Especially because I preordered both RE and LE.)

But the inside is what counts.. so..

I still think those outfits are hideous though...:x

I wish the stylist and PV director had just stuck to the black outfits for the whole PV. I guess I see the need for variety, but sometimes too much is a bad thing.

At first, I thought black might be boring, but the boys knew how to work it. And like you mentioned, though all-black, there's still variety.

However, the furry room w/those.. layer-upon-layer-upon-layer outfits.. eek.

Yeah, it looked like the clothes were just dumped onto them. I like scarfs, but the stylist was killing the look.
