Well, this kind of suits the fact that her 15th anniversary is coming, but really? Why would I buy this kind of mini-album when it's more like a maxi single of over a decade ago? I'd rather not buy this!

who tell you to go and buy this? We are free to do anything we want
some people support Ayu, some just come to make drama from each her single song or release

"that' maxi-single, that's not mini-album" WHO CARES?

Yoake 25th September 2012 09:17 AM

I pre-ordered my copies! :)

Jester 25th September 2012 09:29 AM

I think they (Avex) called it a Mini album because she doesn't have a #1 album yet this years. From the success of FIVE this album might reach #1 so after this she may release 1 single per month who knows?

ExodusUK 25th September 2012 09:35 AM

I imagine Avex is putting a lot of faith in that this is a Tales of tale tie-in with DLC..Juju's bests are split across two different CD releases so that might hurt her a bit.

If I read the article correctly, it states that releases are, for no other reason, released the way they are in order to garner as many sales as possible within the Oricon week. Instead of honoring that form of release pattern, Ayu is honoring/commemorating the 8th of the month, her debut. The ranking is not important, but rather the day on which it is released.

She has also stated:


Rough translation? She wants to thank the fans who have followed her throughout the years by releasing a lot of new songs. And that she tends to enjoy every 8th of the month along with her fans.

This Oricon article also states that we should expect further surprises as well.

"releasing a lot of new songs" makes me excited!

brener 25th September 2012 10:32 AM

another "love" thing. lol

i hope this mini-album/maxi-single (i think they called it a mini-album since oricon consider all discs with more than 8 tracks as a mini-album or album) have a masterpiece like BRILLANTE and i hope it debuts on #1

owlflight 25th September 2012 10:47 AM

Preordered CD only and Tales edition :D

inspire_rmx 25th September 2012 10:52 AM

I love the title of the mini-album. but with only 3 new tracks. Avex should market this as a new maxi single! I realli hope all the 3 track would be amazing with great PVs and tv performances. Wondering what the other releases are only to be. I can predict a new album on the fifth month! Excited -claps-

stepYOU1234 25th September 2012 10:57 AM

I don't know why but 4 songs = maxi single but 5 songs = mini album to me. Still new songs :D

Mari-chan 25th September 2012 11:27 AM

I hope, one of the songs will be a ballad. (^.^)
And I really hope, the December-release will be a Winter-Ballad. I really love her Winter Ballads so much.
But.. only 3 new songs with a lot of remixes looks more like an Maxi-Single than an Mini-Album.

Didz-19 25th September 2012 11:31 AM

^^

I thought one of the song called "Melody" will be a ballad~~~ :)

Heartplace? haha

issit wise to just pre-order this alone with that hefty shipping fee?

Choyan 25th September 2012 12:35 PM

man....15 years already!!!! *0*

The below thought just crossed my mind XD :
Rewind 10 years... this mini would have been a single :P XD

(Edit: just realised a lot of people are thinking along the same line ish xD~~~~)

Cornie 25th September 2012 12:51 PM

I don't care about the name, this is a single, or a mini.. We get new relaeses, so exciting!!!
Ayu told on her blog months ago, that she working again with composers from the past, and writing lot of lyrics.. Now we can see the results

stivenoto 25th September 2012 12:58 PM

I think the important thing is Ayu release new songs..

It doesn't matter if this should be a maxi single or mini album.. At least new songs from Ayu in 5 consecutive months...

(Just my opinion) :D

C+R+E+AYUMI 25th September 2012 01:00 PM

OMG I've missed this what will they invent every single 8th of the month for 5 months in a row? Sure she will celebrate her 15th anniversary with a huge series of concerts which will inaugurate her touring season

Minttulatte 25th September 2012 01:05 PM

I'm so damn excited now! :D I really love the idea of releasing new stuff on every 8th for the next 5 months. Hopefully they really do it this time and Ayu will have lots of TV performances and all that. I miss all those TV lives for sure. ;_;

And looking at the song titles makes me smile because few years ago I wrote songs called Missing and Melody myself. :D I really love these titles so I'm curious to hear what these songs will sound like. <3

And 2013 will the 7th year of my Ayu fandom. Wow, time flies. It feels like I heard Bold & Delicious for the first time yesterday.

Also, I'm going to treat this release as a single since there's only 3 songs, remixes and instrumentals. I think that mini-album should have at least 5 new songs on it, which this certainly don't. This is like a triple a-side single to me. XD
