Made to show what I saw. Not the actual picture I saw

This wasn't the cover used in what I saw. It was one of these covers Im pretty sure I saw.

Or possibly even this cover...

But it was 4 different ones, all same cover, but slightly different pink line over it

As far as we know of the documentarys she was very upset abpu the production of the original A best... and she was very disagree about resinging songs like A song for XX . I would be very surprised if shell do the same again. Maybe this release is a chance to do the things well about A Best production.

I'm actually excited about this rerelease. I remember a friend lending me A BEST soon after I started listening to Ayu - it was my first foray into her pre-I Am... music, but I never bought it. I think I might this time around.

The ones I saw had the official text title on it. Just not with the main picture. I know what I saw and that picture on ayu vogue pink thing is different and the picture really looks fan made. The picture I saw didn't have the fan made look

It doesn't really make sense to say things like "Ayu's didn't have the fan made look" when home girl has straight up jacked certain elements of covers, logos, etc. straight from people's fan art. :rolleyes

damn, I certainly hope that the said image with the pink line has nothing to do with the release cover. A BEST's cover is iconic, everyone knows it. It would make no sense to change it for the anniversary edition. Using the same cover with just that small "-15th anniversary Edition-" discretely under the title is perfect.

THIS.

I actually love it with the pink stripe, but I can see why it shouldn't be the actual cover. Was wondering if she was gonna do the six cover thing again, but glad that doesn't seem to be the case! lol

I'm eager to hear the album remastered. Hopefully I can hear a nice difference!

I meant the polished look and compared to the picture from ayu vouge. And you can clearly tell something is fan edited because a lot of people usually over saturated with colour. Though looking at the website on my PC, I got a different picture this time. The picture I saw from looking on my mobile I can't see any more, that was the one I was referring too, it had a pink line in the centre going from left to right with a rip effect.

Found what I saw. I got confused with
AyuSecrets (浜崎あゆみ) facebook page. They have made their page name and picture look similar like ayus, I must of just assumed it was ayus page. woops :P

T-shirt is usually 3000 yen-ish, so shouldn't the limited edition be like 6000~7000 yen?

No. It's limited and contain: CD, DVD, Blu-ray, T-shirt and photobook. Following your logic I would even say is underpriced, because price of CD is like 3100, DVD like ~6000, BR ~7000, t-shirt (as you said) about 3000 and photobook ~2000. If they would release it and sell separately price for this set would be over 20000.

^ i don't think DVD with only 8 music videos would cost 6000¥

oaristos 16th February 2016 05:20 PM

I know it's manmade, but I wouldn't mind the pink stripe on the cover art either, as long as it wasn't as vibrant.

The price of DVD and BR that you say is for the DVD and BR tours.

album+DVD is 3800 and album+BR is 4200 so 3000 for the album + 800 for the dvd and 1200 for the BR are 5000¥ + tshirt 3000¥ + photobook 2000¥ so the total cost will be 10000¥, 1000¥ of difference only.

I think the price of the photobook is 1000¥ instead of 2000¥ because is not going to be a big photobook.

So they finally make you pay what it cost.

i'm 11 pages late to this party, and this has probably already been said, but i actually think it's a terrible idea to re-release this album. ayu didn't even want this album to exist in the first place, hence that goddamn cover and her determination to re-record some of the earlier singles. re-releasing it now is a classic case of a company missing the goddamn point.

also, if they were so determined to re-release something in a remastered form, literally ANY OF HER EARLY STUDIO ALBUMS WOULD HAVE BEEN A BETTER CHOICE.

oh well. at least there's a new album.

mizuki-7 21st February 2016 09:02 PM

It's false to say that she didn't want this album to exist ! What bothered her so much is the fact she couldn't handle this album like she wanted to do because everything was planned prior her agreement and she thought it was way too early ... but today I'm pretty sure she is proud of this album !
I don't get the disappointment about it ? It's just a re-release nothing more ! I already own the original so I will pass that's all !

visionfactory 21st February 2016 09:29 PM

I need news about this!!

Pieces_of_SEVEN 21st February 2016 09:47 PM
