Both Kotonoha & Sentimental are already uploaded online o_O

I wished Sentimental was an upbeat B-side , surprised it's a ballad , not that there's anything wrong

Curious to see how the Kotonoha PV be like

YesAsia's description of Kotonoha

Having successfully completed her tenth anniversary celebrations, ayaka makes a fresh start with the new single Kotonoha. As the theme song of the NHK drama Tsubaki Bunguten ~Kamakura Daishoya Monogatari~, the warm medium-tempo number carries a message about the importance and power of words that sprout from the heart.

I like the concept of the PV even though in a way it can be quite boring as ayaka mainly does nothing but walking :x

Same 'ol choice of outfit for the past few years , nothing new +_+

^ She also looks a little bit too old for me.

Also want to add this tidbit:

why does she keep cutting her hair short? She looks so much nicer with longer hair... -_- I can forgive the 'ol outfits choices but with that hair... she looks much older than she is. Such a shame.
