I don't think there are bigger versions of the covers yet...are there? I've seen some enlarged versions of the current res covers though.

I only like the CD + DVD version. The others are sooo weird. The poses are strange.... Oh well....

No, two amazing songs and perks does :P And hopefully a hell of a PV... two PVs would have made it perfect! Hahahaha.

I think covers aside, this is a solid single! And the music alone has people very excited and that's what counts the most, right?

I also think people are most certainly entitled to their opinion, but before anyone calls it "crap" or "ugly" they should consider what went into it. I mean I agree, the CD-only covers and such could have been a hell of a lot better... I'm not sure what inspired those poses, I'm not sure I want to...? But at the same time, I wouldn't call them "crap," more like "not very good." I think choice of words plays a lot into it.

Yeah, I agree with you! It may not be one of the best covers, but they're not crap too. Many people like them, like me, so... we could call it "crap" if really nobody in the world likes them.

You know... The CD only's covers are......

I think the only cover that I like is the cover of CD+DVD.

i dont see what you all (sorry, most of you) complaining about - i love the covers... they are different, fun and cool :P hehe - love it. reminds me of the cover one greek singer made few years ago - funky

They are bearable to say the least.

I find so many things wrong with your post that I'm not even going to bother pointing them out. I think they speak for themselves. This thread was clearly made for people to express their own opinions about what they thought of the covers. You do not have to go as far as to call people ignorant because their tastes differ from that of your own.

I haven't seen any Dragonball in my life. So what? Does that mean I have no right to comment about the CD cover because it relates to something I've never seen in my life? Some people aren't even interested or could care less Rule is related to Dragonball. Maybe to you it's a big thing because you happen to be a big fan of it and its creator. There's nothing wrong with that. This doesn't mean everyone else has the same interests as you though, and there's nothing wrong with that either. In the end it's just another single and whether people find it "the single most awesome single Ayu has ever released" is up to them.

I will add this though: there's more to a single than the art/concept behind it. Certainly, being drawn by such a critically acclaimed and prolific mangaka makes it special but this alone does not give it any more merits or consideration than her past works.

finally someone agrees with me :thumbsup
!thx!

i know right. AHS - the forum of pessimism ;)

i could not believe my eyes! they look so different and un-ayu!!

CD+DVD is definitely the best and is my favorite! The other two versions are a little awkward... I love the kick back to the 80s theme she's doing though! Since that's when Dragonball Z started up. :)
