Even if the CD side of isn't worth getting, the DVD side certainly is.

The DVD and photobook worths it all ;)

OMG I want it toooooo! ;_;
Where's Pride? ò.ó

what about Trauma, immature and too late?

:(

and for the price, i would have though somewhere along the lines of like ... 9,000￥ ~ 10,500￥

UGH. I was so easer to get this until I realized how much was missing:

hanabi
July 1st
hanabi ~episode II~
grateful days
is this LOVE?
Pride
too late
trauma
End roll
fated
Born To Be...

Thats a whole 11 tracks!

Though I guess this whole release is unnecessary, so it's not a big loss. It'd just be nice if it were ~complete~

Well 4800 ￥should be the normal price of things like this, it's just that everything in Japan is expensive :dead2

Funny how they don't consider "Together When..." a single, despite it being a digital release and even kind of having a virtual cover :think

Also, I'm sort of curious...which version from Daybreak will it be?

^ wow, Impact, that's a really good question!

Same for "Kanariya" and "Fly High" ...

Seeing as this is a single collection, wouldn't they use the version in the PV?

yeah, that's true!

If they are the single versions, specially Fly high and kanariya, then this release will be a little more interesting LOL

It would be coool, but the PV version of all those 3 songs are remixes, reason why it makes me wonder...

Yeah.

I'd like the single version of "Kanariya" and "Fly High"

but maybe ... maybe not "Daybreak" XD

Interesting, though there's missing singles. Oh well I'll get this anyways.

I'll defintiely buy the 3cd+dvd

Wow I go to bed and wake up and all this news ^_^ I've already preordered cheaper than I thought it would be too, but Cd Japan emailed me with other artists releases as well <_< ah well I've got time to save. Its a nice collection to have So I definately didn't hesitate.

On another note I think it would be good if ayu didn't release a single just yet. Don't get me wrong I'd love new material <3 But I think it's best if she spaces out her singles. I have noticed for the past 2 years she was only releasing 2 singles a year. We already have had one (even though it was just an extended Mirror but still I enjoyed it greatly) Quality over quantity, I'm sure she'll have another single, I was actually expecting one in the fall but looks like since we're getting this "A Complete" it will be either a winter release *hoping for a winter ballad single* or a single next year sometime.

Why does this has AVEX marketing stamps all over it? The DVD and the booklet certainly seem worth the buy, but it's a bad strategy to release it so soon after A BEST 2. But then again, it could be AVEX milking it for all its worth.

I also dread what's going to happen when Ayu actually retires.

uhmm

they should of make it better

=S

like with the TV commercials for her albums/singles/etc

and put all her songs!! i mean the songs with PVs at least!!

there are many of them missing!!!

U.U


Its soo annoying when they do not do a good job!!

like this one

.......


i may buy it anyways lol

what else am i gonna do?



what else can we all do???!?!!??!!??


TT.TT



The only 2 reasons i can think of why AVEX did this A complete whatever DVD thing is because of her 10th Anniversary and to show to Asia [china, taiwan, south korea, hong kong, singapore, etc] her musical career or "musical history"

Avex is not so stupid after all ;)

I like this, especially the DVD content, performances I haven't seen. I'm going to get it, as I wasn't able to get the A BEST 2 -BLACK- CD+DVD package last year, and for once I have the money for it.

Guys, it's not unusual for japanese artistes to release something like this during their silver, golden, whatever anniversaries. It in no way signals she's going to retire. It's also a very profitable venture since the japanese buy into all that commemoration idea. I believe it's going to sell well looking at ayu's compilation sales trend except for A-ballads but that's probably because that album had almost no reason to be released. A 10th anni commemoration is a HUGE reason to be releasing a compilation album that encompasses every single from 8.4 to 8.4 so to speak.

Initially, i was frustrated when i saw the news of this release as well. What's the point of A Best 2 then? But i believe this is a very japanese mindset. The purpose is of the utmost importance. A Best 2 was to signal a 3rd chapter of her music career. This release is purely for the 10th anni spirit. Very corny for many cultures i think but there you have it. If you cannot understand this reasoning, then this release will probably annoy you very much, especially if you are a diehard fan who is buying this purely to support ayu. Ayu is very fortunate to have so many wonderful fans on this forum :yes

It's another funny issue.
I love it how people say that ayu rashes new material but when there is a bigger difference between new material releases (singles and studio albums) they call it rashed but if there is something that is released instead meanwhile then it's unneccesary and the new material is still "rashed" even with the big difference (since it doesn't look like people are willing to wait).
People should be less conservative lol.
