I would love that, but like others have said, it would kill the already set release of her new album.

^to be fair, since half of LOVE again's tracklist is already known and for sale i can't imagine people not wanting to buy at least the cd-only version of a fresh new studio album with unheard of stuff before.

but i'm a lunatic so~

What's left over for the last one would be a digital single.

Someone mentioned the idea that it could be her first physical single since, what, L? That might be a really good thing to do for her 15th anniversary, and it isn't exactly taking the attention off of LOVE again.

As much as I don't want to believe it, the 5th release may be A BEST 3

If it is, then you have my word right here and now I will not listen to another Ayu song for six months lol. That's just so pfft. Releasing it later this year, sure, but not on the anniversary itself pls ;-;

The anniversary happens after the fifth release, btw.

Last release - March 8th
Anniversary - April 8th

I couldn't really care less about semantics tbh I still think it's lame lol But knowing me I'd get over it within a day because who cares, it's Ayu~

it kinda puzzles me why she wont be releasing anything on her anniversary as well LOL

me too
my semantics course is so boring XD

i remember getting so bored of this chick
then i just started listening to her in a week again.

I really believe in the release of A Best 3 as the last of the releases. It wouldn't surprise me and I actually think it's time for another one.

What about Arena Tour DVD then? I guess it's more appropriate to release it instead.

AT12 will probably come around the same time but not be the 5th release since everything has been music so far.

The arena tour could potentially be bonus dvd/blu-ray content.

CDL is way more likely to be an A BEST 3 bonus, but it's not too common to get CDL before the tour.

Maybe it'll be a Live Album from HOTEL Love songs and there will be a CD+2DVD version with the actual concert? I'd like to see that tbh

A BEST 3 is coming. Bit of an anti-climax if the last release after an album was a DVD. Plus, she could have delayed the album until March and had more time to prepare it if a DVD was next, kept the best release until last. The only explanation is something bigger than a new album is coming.

Single IS a possibility but I can't see how that would follow an album - she could have just included those songs on the album. I think the fact she hasn't released a single for 2.5 years is not worth of commemoration. We all know the reason why she hasn't released a single.

However she could have recorded a new song for the best compilation.

A BEST 3 is very likely. It's an anniversary celebration and best-ofs are typical of that type of celebration. Plus we got A COMPLETE for the 10th anniversary. The album being the 4th release instead of the 5th. 6 years since A BEST 2 (and a 6 year gap between A BEST and A BEST 2). All signs point to it.

With all this talk of A BEST 3 being released and the belief that someone related to Slavex lurks around here, it will most likely come...

A best 3 is going to happen this year... its her 15 anny!
Is it going to be the 5th release or not, I dont know.

Really, there's a rumour that somebody related to Avex lurks in the shadows of AHS?

Well. That explains A SUMMER BEST. xD
