covers are just gorgeous.
|
i was really worried about the photos for the cover of this release. I didn't like the AWA streaming cover in the least. i didn't want the photoshoot to be the same as the tour so i was SO EXCITED when it wasn't. I'm not too crazy for the TA versions of the album. it is kind of amazing how different they are, i don't think she has ever done it that way before. but they are just too simple in my opinion and don't really go with the feel of the album. The regular edition covers on the other hand. I FUCKING LOVE them so hardcore. I love the rope idea, it's so meaningful and her face! i'm sorry, i don't see fish lips really. not as bad as she use to have them. and FOR ONCE i love the CD+Bluray cover. I always feel like my favorite cover is CD+DVD (and it still is in this release) but my least favorite is always CD+Bluray, the Cd+Bluray is actually my second favorite cover this time around! I can't wait to see what the booklet shoot is going to look like!
|
I adore the covers. They're just so different for Ayu and a bit more raw feeling. I know she's had emotional covers in the past, but they've always had that Ayu sheen on them while this time it feels more real than ever before.
|
i feel like they have gone more towards pretty as opposed to like raw emotion like this cover does. it's very pretty too, but i feel like that's not the only point of it.
|
I am really curious why TA is so different from the "normal" covers.
|
i am as well, they have never been really different like this. although i'm glad we did get the rope covers and that those didn't end up being TA versions, i would have been so sad because i'm not in TA and i love them lol
|
While I do love the first three regular covers...I just can't get enough of the TA versions, especially the CD+Blu ray. :heart ayu's expression is too cute! But all of these covers for MADE IN JAPAN in general, though, are amazing in my book. :D

Hmmm maybe it's the fact that there's a rope on this one and she hasn't used a rope before? =/ |
sixxxxxx was like "Look, I'm so fierce with my perfect hair and wind machine in front of me for this 'raw' photoshoot of the REAL Ayu!" as she usually does which tends to look very staged.
But this is more like... "I just woke up 2 seconds ago and I barely slept, why are you taking a photo of me?". She's done a lot of the 'real Ayu' being 'natural' concepts, but this is probably the closest we've ever been to a frumpy-ish Ayu on a cover. |

only 2 new PV? ooh no, Survivor, Summer Love would be great having PV too, such a pity
|
Quote:
Think she picked the best songs. If only Breakdown got a PV~ |
Back in the day we would get 4 or 5 PVs on top of the previous singles' PVs...I guess Ayu's budget has been cut due to her sales.
|
I think the usual number was single PVs plus three.
I don't think this is that strange. I am sure she could do more PVs if she wanted, but most of her budget seems to be going towards tours now with much less as far as PVs or even videos during tours go. |
This might be a stupid question: How can I get a TA version of the album if I'm not a member?
If not I'll just go for CD+DVD ver. whose cover is my fav! |
You would have to order it through someone in TeamAyu and they would have to get it shipped to them and shipped to you.
|
^ Not necessarily. They can ship it to you directly from tenso :)
|
Is avex marking up the prices of their CDs? Didn't standard CD editions use to cost like 3000yen
|
The info about the PVs is still not on the official site though lol
|
Yeah...
Ayu's team probably thinks they did it but forgot. |

What do we call this? Frumpy chic? |
I really like all covers. I like how it fits the concept. The darker covers (general audience) refer to the first part of the album and the start of her career while the lighter covers (TA) refers to the second part of the album and the second part of her career when she started to focus on TA and true fans.

team ayu covers are ugly :))))
|
The main one (CD+DVD) is actually pretty nice - minus the awful translucent font...but the others are just too uninspired

CD+DVD the best =)
|
That CD+DVD cover is so fierce omg. I love it. <3
|
am i the only one who's annoyed that TeamAyu CD + 2DVD has a different font size?
|
I like the placement of the CD+DVD the most, tbh.
|
I like the covers, the TA ones are my least liked, but it's because I don't think they go with the album really. Looking at them from purely a photo perspective, I think they are really pretty. As usual the CD+DVD is my favorite cover, but at least the CD+BLURAY is not the one I like the least. Which has happened the first time since LOVE again.
|
On the normal covers Ayu is looking like a final fantasy character lol

It looks as though in the TA covers she's saying, "Help me?" XD

Anyone knows what this is about?

^ seems like they will run a program on Adema TV where Ayu fans will talk about her. Ayu herself won't appear

Hi Guys, I have one question! =)
my signature TA has expired, and I'll not have money to renew it because I am sick (have to choose between having the CD or renew TA). You can tell me if the Mu-mo will sell MADE IN JAPAN with TA Tour version for non-members as well? Thank you. <3 |

I want PV news ;_;
|
When are the PVs going to be released?
|
Perhaps within a week or so?
Though she could also really cut it down to the wire and wait until like, a few days before the release date to show them off. |
Has anyone else stopped listening to M(A)DE IN JAPAN?
I listened for a few days only, now I'm waiting for the CD rip. I think that's a bad sign; I couldn't stop listening to pre-A ONE albums when they first came out...my God I had colours on repeat 24/7..not even joking. Radio rips, doesn't matter, I had to play those tunes non-stop. XD |
^ I listened to it a few times in the week it leaked. Then I stopped and I gave another listen early this week to see if I could get more into the tracks.
I'm liking FLOWER a lot more now although my opionion on the full album still the same. |
besides you are the only one and breakdown, i love all the songs!

I am going to listen to it more when we get rips, but I still have it on rotation with the last 5-6 albums.
Such a good album. But even better is that I love the albums like LOVE again just as much as before, hehe. |
Personnally, I'm like "forcing" myself not to listen to it too much before the official release. It's a strange feeling, but I usually want the product worth buying : if I get the physical CD but I'm already sick of the material, I just consider it a waste of money.
I know it's not, but my inner self just want to "legitimately" listen to the actual product and enjoy it at the fullest. |
^I would understand and agree usually, but I'm so in love with this album that I just keep playing it and will still want to buy it at the end of the month!

the rip we have of the album is still very LQ, so I stopped listening for that reason.
|

|
I still listen to the album a few times a day. Trying to internalize everything, lol.
|

|
Exactly, the quality is kinda bad on headphones. I can already imagine how awesome they'll sound with a high quality rip.
|
I wonder if the physical edition will have a new mix of Winter diary.
|
Quote:
|
I mainly wonder because the PV is on the video disc, so it would be a bit odd if it was for a song that wasn't on the release. However, my name's WOMEN's was allowed onto STEP you IIRC, so I guess anything is possible.

It looks like MADE IN JAPAN is in the Hot Titles list on YesAsia.:yes That is a pretty good sign.:thumbsup |
I don't think that's a ranking, is it?

|
I'm more wondering if it's just gonna be what's on youtube or actually the full story and when do we get the summer diary continuation....
|
Summer diary's continuation is Winter diary.
|
Its been so long for me but do you have to be a member to get the teamayu version?
|
Yes, you do.

Really cant wait for a better rip of the album. Especially FLOWER. I need it in sheer crisp quality!
|
I'm excited that this is the first time that I'll be buying a new ayu album while in Japan! My last two trips didn't coincide with any new releases from her. :D :D
|
I really want to pre-order the album via TA, but are they no pics out of the fanclub goods until now?
|
I still wait for the setlist of TA TOUR before pre-ordering or not.
Hope that the setlist includes the songs from the previous day especially Pray |

Yeah, she needs new ideas for romantic scenarios |
She probably watches a lot of those movies during her downtime, lol.
|
I wonder what kind of book, show and movie she likes
|
Is it difficult to buy things from TA/mu-mo Shop?...
I'm thinking about joining the fanclub just to get the TA Live DVD tour... :( |
It isn't too hard but can be expensive.
