Ooo! I wanna see the hand towel design! If I can get the CD+DVD versions with the goods I'll grab it on the 2nd from Shibuya :luv2

Xianghua 14th November 2018 04:48 PM

Ai mentioned on Instagram that she recorded a new song today. Since the only new song being released on Ai am Best, too is 'Dear you' and has already been recorded, we will probably be getting a new single!

Xianghua 16th November 2018 08:39 AM

Jacket for Ai am Best, too.

Ai am BEST, too video digest


oaristos 21st November 2018 04:23 AM

I wonder how much "Ai am BEST, too" is going to sell. Even though she's not nearly as popular as before, there are so many hits in this album...

jiarongisme 21st November 2018 06:31 AM

Damn, the video digest brings back so many memories. I wonder if she's gonna do something similar to Babashi no Theme this time :laugh

That's a letdown. I was hoping for all the mvs in Blu-ray.

And I'm not sure whether I wanna get it. I have Ai am BEST and LOVE PiECE, so technically I have about half of the songs from too. To be honest I'm not really fond of Ai's post-hiatus songs... Pocket is not on the normal editions (only appears in FC edition).

Have a think about it...

I agree, especially since she doesn't include all the PVs on her albums and you have to buy the separate singles with the DVD to watch some of them. I'm not sure I'll worry about purchasing right away then, it can wait.

Corvina 21st November 2018 10:09 PM

I rather have lives than PVs, watching those far more often. Definitely gonna pick it up.

Especially cause Ai got so far more interesting to me musically.
I've only liked some songs from her in the past, but her albums now are really good.
Love Honey turned into my favourite by far, it's awesome!

Saying that I didn't feel the last two new songs too much.
Let's see what she's going to deliver next year.

That's so sad to read. :(

Really sad to hear...but this makes me think back of what happened last year - SU's (Ai-chan's now ex-husband) cheating scandal:

Don't know why it took THIS LONG from the cheating scandal to the divorce announcement. :shakehead

I have to wonder - could this divorce be related to last year's scandal?

Corvina 22nd November 2018 12:04 PM

Not surprising after the reveal how Su cheated on her.
I actually thought she'd already done it.

Xianghua 23rd November 2018 10:05 PM

I also thought they had already divorced. I guess they tried to work through it all this time.

I wonder why they included the live performances instead of the music videos too. And even stared at the webpage wondering if I was reading it correctly :laugh

Maemi 25th November 2018 12:22 AM

She finally divorced that creep...

I find it very fitting - putting a 15th Anniversary Live on a 15th Anniversay Best album.^^

You're right, it is - I am surprised it is not an FC exclusive!

Ai am BEST, too special site has opened
https://avex.jp/ai/aiambesttoo/

As a countdown starting today, there will be one song added to a playlist daily on streaming services Spotify, AWA, and LINE music. They will also upload a CM and gif with each song.

Today is Watashi.
And if you are looking at the gif thinking, "wtf" like I was, it's a tongue twister that says "Watashi no Tawashi" which means "my scrubbing brush" :P
