If they're going for a certain atmosphere, they might achieve it with this song. I dunno. I don't know a lot about the story.

I totally agree

I just read the manga and Ayu was all I could think about. Some of the statement, visuals, symbols...they're so frequent in what Ayumi says and does. Her music is the perfect choice, though I'm unsure if evolution(lyrically) is the right choice. I wonder if they will take the story from the manga or the storylines that were planned but never realized because of the author's accident...or both...this film would be the perfect opportunity to finish the unfinished story.

This film sounds really interesting! I think Erika is a really good actress so hopefully I'll get the chance to see this. Thanks for the interview evolution 7/4 - she came over really well.

It's cool they've chosen evolution though I don't understand why. From reading the description of the film, the lyrics don't really match.

A remix or recording would be nice though. Adding evolution to her next single would defiantely be a good idea!

mi|kshake~

wish we could wish for a remastered version with new arrangements maybe :)

Just finished to read the manga. If you don't mind: nudity, cursing and violence it's highly recommended. It's a cruel and bitter sight on model's careers and beauty obsession. Although it was written on '95 it would apply perfectly nowadays imo.
I'm looking forward this movie! Also, Erika Sawajiri is totally suited for Ririko :yes.

At first I didn't get why they have chosen evolution as main theme, but after reading the manga I got it. To be honest I don't really want a remastered version. evolution is perfect as it is.

BTW, the manga is from 2003

That photo is very Ayu.

And so what if she'd re-record it. It wouldn't destroy the original version. It's not like that one would cease to exist or anything. :rolleyes

^
you're right, but evolution don't really need to be re-recorded imo. However if they will do it, I wouldn't complain lol.

ops my bad.

By the way, I asked this in another thread and I'm not sure if you answered or even quite where I asked it but, what effects did you use on your avatar? To make Ayu look so "standout-ish" and somewhat comic-booky? To give it that really sharp effect?

^
ow, maybe I didn't see it. Sorry!

btw I used Topaz Clean for made that effect. It's from Topaz Lab a PS filter :yes

Ok cool, thanks!

If they rerecord or arrange it that would totally defeat the purpose of choosing the song in the first place imo

Yeah it's terribly unfortunate about what happened. It's such a trivial thing to me, but I guess artists have to be extremely careful about how they handle the media in Japan.

I really enjoyed her two singles that she released. I don't think they were as generic as she insists, but it's nice to know she's critical about what kind of music she wants to put out.

I believe the original run of the manga was 1995-1996, but it was compiled into one volume in 2003.

WOW SO EPIC!!! X) So this is the kind of promotion they were going for Party Queen, so in 2023 we'll get a high budget movie with PQ as it's soundtrack :3 perfect can't wait!

ZOMG SO GORGEOUS!! X)

I don't know why, to be, the poster looks like japanese porn movie poster.

That actress is incredibly beautiful...!
