I am just so excited for Maki's release!!!!! And the concert too! :heart

Osawa Shinichi! :luv2

i wonder how the music will turn out. i hope it's '70s, but hopefully it's not outdated too much. but i believe it's going to be great! ;)

rumor that Maki and Erika Sawajiri will have a collaboration

http://npn.co.jp/article/detail/97671415/

^i really hope it's true!! i loved erika's singles :heart

omg i hope so too!! this will be one amazing song then :thud

Yaay Collab With ERIKA That sound awesome ! :heart

Awesome! both about maki's mini album and the ERIKA collaboration. ^^

I think the collaboration is a really good idea since it would be beneficious for both Maki and Erika ^_^

Great news! Shinichi Osawa is god, and a mini album with him and a collab with Erika Sawajiri just promises this will be a total blockbuster!
So excited for this release!

wow, a collab with erika? that would be fantastic :D

I hope so!!!! The PV is gonna be amazing

Maybe something like exotiq disco?? It was sorta 70s like... :luv2

^ OMG I LOVE THAT SOOONNNNGGGGG (+that doods creeper voice XD)

i already pre-order it from HMV JP :heart
they won't charge my card until they ship the CD :lech

Ekizona Disco is one of my favorites too :D It's so good and better live

the album's DVD will have 2 PVs. one PV will be for an up-tempo track, and the other PV will be for an ballad.

Can't wait to see more of Maki

^
^
This is getting better and better :luv2

Not new news or anything, but I was watching this today and it was epic. I hope she can go on tour sometime soon. <3

btw whats wrong with her HP?

^ what do you mean?

i love this performance so much :weep i've been dying for a solo studio version of this i really wish it was added on to the HTUS album.

i've been missing seeing maki do concerts i hope her a-nation performances are on her upcoming mini albums dvd or something.

title, "ONE" and tracklist:
also, DVD tracklist, two PVs

its doesnt work xD Its shows me just a message in japanese and lnk to mail subscribe

^ ohhh it's been like that for a while now. it should be getting a proper layout etc. shortly.

i was expecting to see more english titles in the tracklist, hope previews/covers are out soon. :yes

crummy translations~ :P
i think these are roughly what it translates to...but feel free to correct me, i'm still learning. :laugh

01 宝石;; Houseki;; Gem/Jewel
02 EYES
03 言えないけど;; Ienai kedo;; I can't say but...
04 わがまま;; Wagamama;; Selfishness
05 華詩-hanauta-;; HanaUta;; Flower Poem/Song

There is a studio version, it's just not a Maki solo if that's what you mean.

Kind of underwhelmed by the tracklist, but at least we have some new info.

nice tracklist! :) i really want to see the covers!

But this is like a big single, not a mini-album.

BTW 07/07 is coming closer!! (L)

ty for the translations moments! all the songs except for EYES (I assume that is the "upper dance tune") sounds like they could be a ballad...which is understandable because of what happened I suppose.

Maki solo is the one I want! Nochiura Natsumi's version if okay but Maki's is 100x better :yes

Thanks for the title translations :D I was wondering. Well, all the songs sound interesting, I'm totally pumped :D (And with Kuu's single and Nana's album, July 7th is going to be an awesome day for J-pop XD)

Also, that entire 2007 tour is EPIC. Definitely one of the best H!P has ever put on (and features Zin and Maro as well XD)

Oh yay! A tracklist! That's awesome! And I'm really looking forward to those two new PVs!

Nice tracklist, i hope a great cover

Minialbum on the same day as Kuu's new single? awesome~

First press comes with a poster!! I'm seriously about to preorder. I just feel kind of weird about it since we don't even have covers yet. What if they're some fugly cartoon drawing like the SWEET BLACK ones? D:

^

TSSSS!!!! I hope they don't!

Doubt that'll happen cause the lady who drew that was used because her stories coincided with the SWEET BLACK project.

Good, cause I just preordered it. xD

:heart need HQ photo! maki's gorgeous!

^^is that the cover?
if it is, i LOVE IT!!!!:heart

*post was deleted now i look crazy :weep


She looks amazing in the picture :heart i really hate those shorts though :puke

I kind of hope that isn't the cover/poster D:

It looks like she got too hot in a regular bridal gown so she made a summer version. :X

ONE is definately a mini album, right? i just wanna make sure so i'm not going crazy, lol. :P

I'm not really digging her outfit, but she looks gorgeous.

She looks gorgeous! I like the top half of her outfit. But those shorts have got to goo. They're to poofy for my taste. lol. Song samples soon I hope. D=

It's definitely a mini album. :P

omg she looks gorgeous :luv2 :luv2

boo at the competions though :eviltongu

Wowwww, is that a promo pic or is the cover?

^Guessing a promo pic for now.

oh wow! she looks great! :D
but them shorts, gurlllll....

she looks hot from the waist up but it looks like she's in a diaper.

the promo pic looks great :yes

It really looks that way! XD

can't wait!!

tommorrow!!!! @_@ it's so sudden!! I can't waaaaaaait

smth is wrong with the pants, definately
leslie kee cover for sweet black was obviously much better

tasteless, hmm

omg cant waiiiiitttt :luv2 :luv2 tomorrow is a great day, yes

D= So soon? Yeeeeesssss! I can't wait.

WOOT. Don't let me down, Maki. <3

hmm


i don't really like the song so far and the pv looks so cheap :/ ahhhh

Don't love it. D:

I hope this isn't the real PV.

oh and the release date is july 28th now

^ One week after JASMINE's album.

At least I won't have to wait long for both to arrive since I combined them into one order. :)

Hmm. I dunno what to think of the song. It's kinda boring... On the other hand I like the video. I like candid shots like that. Could have done without the parts where she's all glammed up for it though that seemed out of place.

The covers are alright. I prefer the CD+DVD one at this point in time.

the song sounds nice to me.
and the covers aren't so bad. i prefer cd+dvd!

song is alright. i'll wait for the whole thing. so many things are coming out in July! D:

I loooove the song :D this is definitely one of the releases I'm anticipating the most this summer.

PV looks a bit boring, but I am liking the song, and she looks amazing in the vid

I like the song. ^^

whats with the cheap mv...

i like the song but it isnt anything amazing :( i have a feeling this wont be the main song, or has it already been said that it is? if so then i am dissapoint D:

WOWOMGWHAT?????? she has an amazing boday BUT WHAT?????

Which magazine is that?

^ "GLAMOROUS"

also i -think- her premium live starts in like 30 minutes...it's gonna be streamed from here?

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/avex-live

i wish i could watch but it's 5:30 am i really should go to bed lmao

Did anyone mention her website has been renewed ?

http://makigoto.tv/index.html

Love those covers <3

I'm surprised she'd pose nude =o

I'm starting the live now. On her site, discography is spelled wrong. xD

she looks gorgeous in the pics!!:heart

Eyes isn't really good either. I thought this was the hot dance track, wtf?

The compositions are just sub par.

the song is nice, but it doesn't really go anywhere so far. maki looks gorgeous in the PV, but i dunno, it's a bit too simple :shrug i like the covers very much, though!

i'm sad they changed the release date :weep i can't wait any longer, lol.

The song isn't as good as her SWEET BLACK stuff.

WHOA, I wasn't expecting her to pose nude!

I like the cover to the mini album. :)

Damn she's H-O-T!!! =D

^
^You were expecting her to post nude? o__O

so much new pics i'm overwhelmed right now

WHERE DID THE BLACK COVER COME FROM? I think it's a "DON QUIJOTE" edition or something??

bigger covers of the regular edition + promo images

What are these supposed to be? Posters you get from buying the mini at certain locations? o_O

Uh, no? That doesn't change the fact that those pics, and she herself, are HAWT! ^_^

Of course the hottest cover would be a store-exclusive. :headache

But since I likely won't get it, I guess I like the CD Only cover more than the CD+DVD one since it has better composition - even though I'm already buying the CD+DVD edition. :P

Though, if the exclusive cover is also a CD+DVD edition then, I swear, I'll *have* to get it somehow!

I wonder if the black one is the standard poster? It'd be kind of odd for it to be when it doesn't match the standard covers.

It's still hot, though! :D

wow the covers look amazing but I think her expression is a bit too sad...
I really like the preview so fa,r of course the sweet black stuff was epic haha but ONE isn't bad too :)

bigger covers and promo image

those covers are BEAUTIFUL!!! :luv2 i don't really like the devil maki cover, though, lol. but i LOVE the promo image!

Sugoi! Perfect! Approved! *_* I love it! I just wanna buy this because of the cover! :luv2

And the new song is so good too :heart

The nude pics are great too :laugh

Nobody thinks her boobies are... bigger, like a lot bigger?

her eyes are HUUUUUGE :OOOO tbh i dont really like them except for the black one, that one is HAWT OMAGAH :thud oh and the full body promo is gorgeous too!

LOVE THE COVERS
LOVE THE SONG

Oh they changed the release date ToT !!!!!!

Ah! Sorry! That post was directed at Mirai Noah who said she was expecting her to post nude. I think we posted at the same time.

----
All of these shots are seriously gorgeous. If the middle poster image is an option for overseas fans/CDJapan buyers (xD) I'll seriously throw a party if I get it.

i really like the DON QUIXOTE cover! the others are OK, but lol @ the contacts.

love her GLAMOROUS shoot too. :3

Omg! AMAZING. BEST EVER

WHOA! are you trying to turn me into a lesbian maki? if she only had a bit more meat on her the photoshoot would of been perfect!

i quite like "宝石" it somewhat reminds me of ami for some reason...looking forward to her mini :)

OMG!!!! I'll be in Japan for the 28th!!! So I hope I could buy the 'Don Quijote' special álbum!!!!!!!!!

So the new song sounds good.

So I accidentally stumbled across those pics of her nude...

and uh wow.

I wasn't expecting her do that but whoa.

Oops, I meant "wasn't!" I let off the contraction. Sorry, I'm sleep deprived... :headache
