I guess I'm one of the few excited for a mini album by LOVE ( :P ). I think its exciting to get a glimpse of the old Ai unless the new tracks are like sophisticated techno ballads or something ( :laugh ). Lame, I know ( :laugh ).
LOVE's music isn't of course exactly like Ai's but it does of course have that quality of her so I'm excited. EDIT: WOW just saw the calendar pics. Anyone else got a nosebleed on July and August? Coincidence that it's on my birthday, I THINK NOT. |

i got my LOVE COOK first press + photo book today and omg
i love the photo book so much she is sooo cute i can't believe there are no scans to be found online of it.. or none that i know of please, if someone has a scan of this pic i really want it. i'd scan it myself but i don't want to wreck my book :scry http://i34.tinypic.com/a59l41.jpg |
yes ! can u please scan it ? i 've searched it for long time ! thanks u so much !
|
Like I said earlier, I love the calendar pics (ESPECIALLY JULY AND AUGUST), but why are they so expensiiiive? For only 6 pages... I know all of these singer's and band's calendars are this expensive but still!
|
^ Yeah, they say that they're huge and I believe it, but I have more important things to spend my money on, sadly!
|
Oh my god.
I discovered Planitarium today, I think I'm in love. I only knew about Ai's happy songs, like Sakuranbo and Peach (both of which I love to bits btw :D) but her ballads are also REALLY good! Ai :luv2 |
I agree, her ballads are soooo pretty and puranetariamu is one of her best. :)
|
Aww Planeterium was my first Ai song (or one of them)! I think its her best ballad, it's one of her most well-known songs after all.
HanaDan ( :heart ). |
is it no surprises on nowadays whenever I hear Planetarium , Hana Yori Dango immediately popped into my mind ? .___.

Who or what exactly IS LOVE? :tipsy I'm so confused as to what you guys are even talking about. :laugh

Thanks for posting Tsubasa. "Ai" is one of my favorite Ai songs.

She'll release a new stuff!
I would prefer that she release a new single and not a LOVE album I think her hairstyle +color in a-nation is horrible |
I really like Planetarium but there's not a lot else I like from Ai. Anyone have any recommendations? Also, one of my friends really likes the song Cherish...but she doesnt really like jpop in general. How do I use this to lure her into becoming addicted to Ai and eventually jpop :P Thanks

Also, you HAVE to listen to Sakuranbo and Peach :P but I'm not a die-hard fan, I'm sure someone else can give better advice :) |
Quote:
what else ... I didn't like Pocket initally but I grow to like it now & that goes for HEART which's unique basically if you can stand her crazy whacked tunes , then it will be Sakuranbo (which I didn't like initally) , PEACH , Smiley |

man all these talk about otsuka , I should go & listen to her again I haven't done so in a very long time :dead2 |
BABASHI is amazing <3
|
any Youtube videos of the a nation performances?
|
just checked youtube. nothing :(
|
I saw her perform BAI BAI and also the other from the broadcast...icr the name. :(
|
@SugarBasil: LOVE is her weird cute rabbit... I swear they have been using LOVE as a merchandise for everything... I saw a lot of LOVE plushies, key chains and all in gift shops... but strangely, there's no credit to avex/Ai Otsuka... O_o
And wow her crazy songs rock! I love love love PEACH and Sakuranbo! <3 |
^ yeah! i see LOVE a lot in Taiwan too...i actually have this tiny LOVE keychain
I really like that one song of Ai's.....with a really long title....something about a black cow tongue? :thud |
^ From what I remember it's something like Salted cow's tongue for 768 yen...
There's 2 versions; one on her LOVE JAM (I think) album which is more mellow, and the other on Ai AM BEST, which is more aggressive/rock-toned... btw the original version costs "less", XD. |
lol she have such weird titles, i only heard the one on LOVE JAM
|
I prefer the one on Ai AM BEST lol, have you watched the PV? It's weirder! XD
|
oh no i haven't, i like only watched...1 Ai PV ever @_@
|
Wow you should lol... I think her and Kuu's PVs are about the most entertaining... I don't wanna clog up the post with youtube videos, but these are the ones I would watch because it's REALLY funny:
CHU-LIP SMILY Happy Days Salted Cow's Tongue for 768 yen And for cat lovers: Neko ni Fuusen The cats in the PV were really cute imo... :3 EDIT: @Joel: Btw, the other song she sang at a-nation was Mirai Taxi... so surprised to see that! But I love her performance... she owns the previous few artists... she just ran into the stage and started getting the audience high, XD. |
Ah! Yeah! That was the one! Mirai Taxi. :) Cheers. XD
Out of her upbeat songs I love Mackerel's canned food and Pon Pon the most. <3 |
xD Does anyone else find her hair at a-nation incredibly hideous? LOL
|
^ yea me too. that's a really bad color for her. =/
|
3rd that , she looked even more older than her real age in a-nation -_-
& I heard stuff that the PV pertaining to Kuroge Wagyuu Joshio Tanyaki 680 Yen was sexually suggestive in which I have no idea how so :O :dead2 |
i hated her hair at a-nation too. honestly tho, if you take a look at most of the hairstyles at a-nation this year from the girls, they really were quite disgusting omg
i liked her energy in her mirai taxi performance though |
have you all seen this?
WOW @ the costume |
^ Her performace for 360 looks interesting!
|
Can someone upload her a-nation performances on YT please? :(
|
looks really cool! haha..
|
OMG it's on youtube! ai at a-nation!

Quote:
YEAH! i even saw one in LEBANON!!!! no one listens to japanese music there XDDD iwas so excited when i saw him though :P and you have a LOVE keychain??? :O! ive always wanted to have one :( |
It seems like people are plagarizing LOVE... lol.
And she looks so beautiful, but why Ticket... another old song... couldn't they have used the "new song" from the new "best" album? |
wow that otsuka pic is beautiful :luv2
that really should have been used as the cover for LOVE LETTER :grumpy |

|
why haven't people here seen the tour yet? it has been out for a while. i watched it the other day :P i loved the shachihata performance (and that dress!), Kurage, Nagareboshi, and all the songs on the piano, and chu-lip! the ending was great. ai is an amazing live singer.
|
^ really??? is it uploaded on youtube? i really wanna see the chu-lip performance XD
OMG THE TOUR LOOKS AMAZING XDDDD that furr thing reminds me of kumi though :P |
The tour looks so amazing! *o* She is such a good performer <3 <3
I'm so going to buy it, haha xD Thanks for posting up~! |
Quote:
http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=aykohno&view=videos also, i love the do positive performance so much, it's making me like the song when previously i didn't care much for it. you all should really watch the tour~ it's at JPS if nobody has uploaded it here yet. i'd like to read your opinions on it. i usually get bored with ai tours but this one was really entertaining imo |
^I just watched it a bit but not all though. It seems as a really entertaining tour. I still have to watch it in full so I can't comment much about it.
|
ahh thankyou so much identity!!!!! i just watched animation+shachihatta, and though i didnt understand what the animation was about AT ALL, it was pretty cool XDD and OMG!!! i couldnt stop laughing at those male backdancers in shachihatta :roflmao were they meant to be dolls or something? XDD

Does anyone have translated Ai interviews?
And I heard a rumour (and I have this weird feeling D: ) that Ai could be retiring soon (with all the bests and the LOVE minialbum, and also Bye Bye being the last single that she has released, and that supposedly she wants to marry and have kids). What do you think of it? I would be very, very sad if Ai retired, she is one of my favorite artists -_- |
I hope she doesn't retire! :(
I'll also be sad.. |
Quote:
|
I want to say hello to Otsuka Ai thread~ :D
I think it's just another rumor... I just heard that "The First Period about LOVE has ended" Next year, the second period will start, i think that the LOVE period here talks about her LOVE titled album (LOVE PUNCH, LOVE JAM, LOVE COOK, LOVE PiECE, LOVE LETTER) so the next period will start in next year i think, and the album wouldn't have any 'LOVE' title anymore~ :D |
^ whaaaat??? no more LOVE albums????? thats so sad :(
Quote:
|
Quote:
i'm getting kind of tired of the LOVE before everything, so i wouldn't mind it |
I doubt that rumor is true. I can't imagine her stopping composing and singing for a life of domestication (especially without a boyfriend). :shrug
And can someone help me out here? I really want to buy her LOVE LETTER tour DVD, but I need a region-free version. My computer can only switch regions up to 3 times before it sticks in the last used version. I found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT and it's super cheap, but I'm a bit confused on it. It's missing a bunch of the songs she performed (according to the set list), and the set list is completely different. Does anyone have any idea as to what might be the deal? |
^ it says on that page
"This release records her concert at the Zepp Tokyo on March 1." the one that was released this month is from her concert at Yokohama Arena on the 17th of May |

eh Cat , her LOVE LETTER DVD's already released in avex Taiwan's site
http://www.avex.com.tw/4th/artist/ar...&anamec=otsuka in fact that took place way back in May :dead2 HK press of the DVD can be purchased via HMV HK - http://hmv.com.hk/product/product.asp?sku=479705 |
So basically, Ai has released two DVDs of the same concert? I think I'll dl the one on JPS when I get home. :love
|
|
It looks like misunderstood...
It means that, her 'LOVE' titled album before is the first period, not the Bunny named LOVE, i mean... I don't know very much about her LOVE bunny, but about this 'LOVE' period title, so we're going to see another her album title without words 'LOVE' anymore~ I hear that from Taiwan website though, she said that in her concert in Taiwan this year~ (LOVE IS BORN Anniversary 6th if i'm not mistaken~) And Channel-Ai member who came to the concert also mentioned that :laugh |
LOL what if her new albums start with...
Spoiler:
|
^ HAHAHAHAHAHAH

released on 23rd Sept - Ai Otsuka Love Letter Tour 2009 - Light Terashite Ai to Yume to Kando to ... Warai to! - at Yokohama Arena on 17th of May 2009 |

I would say if her new albums start with CRAZY? CRAZY PUNCH (ugh) CRAZY JAM (...) CRAZY COOK (LOL no thanks) CRAZY PiECE (Ha...) CRAZY LETTER (.LOL) BEST ALBUM - Ai am CRAZY! |
I would not put it past Ai to name an album SEX _____

LMAO , Kuroki Meisa's different as compared to otsuka
otsuka has been all along known for her girl next door demure image since her debut in the scene 6 years ago to ask her to sex things up now , it's a sell out thing which I really hate |
i don't think the LOVE JAM cover was very innocent lol
|
LOL 8D
it kinda put me off from eating Jam if you ask me @_@ |
Quote:
|
i'm not sure if this is true but i always see people talking about how ai says some sexual stuff during interviews too. i wonder which interviews they're talking about, i don't read any translations so idk
|
^ omg lol.
It's a joke people! I think Ai approves of this! (does she? :laugh) |
I think although Ai puts out a very innocent image, she's very sexual, I mean she's always using innuendos and metaphors like that.. xD
|
Suddenly, i remember LOVE JAM covers, and Tsukune 70 Yen Lyrics~ :laugh

|
^ yeah she even said she used to watch porn with her parents :dead2 :roflmao

omg are you serious on that ? that's gross :dead2 & I thought looking at KAT-TUN's Akanishi Jin's naughty somewhat porny photospread he did for an.an mag was BAD but this's just .___. |

Don't take it seriously though~ Some article said this : Quote:
That's why i love her~ :D |
oh I didn't realised that she was born in Osaka & yes Osaka people are really funny & are LOUD *points to Kanjani8 as prime eg :laugh
I want to hear her speak in Kansai language though . That will be something worth checking out for heh |
