I agree that NSD is one of the better PVs in 2009 compared to again and IATM. YUI really seemed like she was having fun jamming on stage. (My personal fav of 2009 is Sea though)
But after so many PVs and recent ones being...quite generic (my personal opinion) I think there needs to be something new. ...Time for a new director?

^ MTE. +1 for a new director! For a fresh new attack on YUI's song. I think Kubo reached the peak of making YUI PVs. Time to change.:)
Geeky and Nerdy 2011 for me!

I would think it's him. Some familiar camera moves in the PV... :rolleye
But her earlier PV directors are great! Loved LIFE, Tokyo, IRY, Tomorrow's way...probably because they have different directors and it feels fresh each time? Not too say Shigeaki Kubo does a bad job but once you work together for so long, the ideas get stagnant. =P
