As he activates the levers (shown as I, II, III, and IV) four miniature versions of Ayumi appear. Each of the four wears a different colour and displays a different personality. The  blue sings in a cute manner, the black cold, the white shy and the red seductive. As the man activates the last lever, the contraption begins to short-circuit, and the four Ayumis turn into one who sings in the rain wearing yellow. The PV for Is This Love? features Ayumi singing emotionally in an apartment. It is implied that she possesses some sort of psychokinetic power and can destroy objects around her and restore them back to the original state at will. As she passes by, objects begin to explode (i.e. a mirror, a bowl of fruit, a fish  tank, walls, lights etc.). But later these objects appear to be completely intact again. As she looks down the window, she sees a child about to be hit by a car. She comes to his rescue by blowing up the car. As the child is out of danger, the car is seen unscathed and drives off the scene. In the end Ayumi looks back at the apartment and in one piece it looks as if no destruction has ever happened.
