I'm netural about it , I hope the pics inside are much better than the cover

cute, but her eyes look dead

There is something unnatural about that picture...Definitely not her best.

lololol. a step up from her recent covers though. that hair is so cute

Kinda reminds me of Namie in the GLAMOROUS mag cover lol. At least it's better than the ViVi cover, lol.

She looks dead o_O !

Whu? I don't see anything.

Edit: Ha, I searched it on google.
Whu, the cover is boring.

she looks kawaii but her hair looks like Rainie Yang's hairstyle in a drama.

mm, I agree~
the angle looks sort of.. awkward to me though.

^ haha. well at least if ayu had eyebags, they did us the courtesy of photoshopping them out. photoshopped perfect skin > eyebags

ehh...cover not very special..
hope pics are wayyy better than cover ><

Looks like Momentum PV..don't you think so?

lol not really. i just prefer not to see droopy eyebags. they're quite offensive. luckily, ayu rarely has them with no make-up :P, if so definitely never as bad as namie. she needs some sleep! :yes

That's worse! It suggested to me : Surgery

It damn natural for women with big eyes to have eye bags as well...

nice!!

Somehow i foresee this hairstyle to be seen quite often on Japan streets lol.

@UH+: :rolleyes

it's damn natural for women that get sleep to be eye-bag free :yes

Its a bit to light. But its alright. :)

kawaii desu

is there anything wrong with that? artists supposed to be perfect in their fan's eye lol

yeah, ayu probably had surgery :rolleyes. after seeing her future in 2 years She took care of it!.

hahaha also, there is NOTHING "natural" in publicity photos. Make up, lightning, photoshop and cameras is no formula for natural publicity photos.

man you are so fixed on ayu! haha

its cawaii...

its cute♥

but...
her mouth...like past photo again...uh-oh

I don't know whether I like it or not.. I hope the inside scans is better :)

i dont like ayu's hair now.

it makes her head look like one giant fur ball.

i like it.. better than her recent covers.. =)

this looks like her really old mag covers, from like 1999!

Hoooo Ayumi is 12 today !
Don't like it so much

she looks like my mama ~~ ! i hate her new cover ! just too over photoshopped ! come on ! ayu we needn't that beauty ~^!

^Well ayu isn't photoshopping that pic or has anything to do with it besides taking it at the studio :laugh

She looks pretty cute though :)

This isn't a magazine cover, it's just a picture that was randomly chosen out of a dozen pictures that were probably better than this. -_-

lol u dont need to jump everytime someone compairs ayu with namie etc


we all know theyre both different and special


i love namie as much as ayu so yea




if you wanna make a good impression you should just stop listening to silly people etc

:yes

If she just didnt use those contacts.. it would look better, and more like human.. ahhaa

oh yea

about the cover...


its good i think

not her best but she looks really cute! :D

oh cute

shall look forward to seeing the remaining scans, hope will be better than the cover. The cover is filled with so many words, that I can only see her face. LOL! thanks for sharing though! (:

I think the picture is too light/bright might be due to the fact it's LQ.

I hope the actual product isn't so bright.

cute.

kinda' bright though :/
bleh

Oh she looks cute! But I really don't like the hair... lol. Oh well.

I don't like it :/ she looks quite terrible :/ I'd rather she did more natural shot, like namie... but no, ayu is The Queen, she has to be Perfect

thanks tough.

She looks magnificent! Ayu: Beautiful, talented, and graceful
I cannot wait to see inside of this magazine, it is sure to be a fun time.

uhm. Too much contrast, I don't like it :/
I hope the scans will be better :yes

lol, please. Everyone on magazines are photoshopped.

its alright...kinda boring...

her hair is awful. Couldn't she have at the very least stolen Namie's wig?

I'm kinda impressed that the photoshop team actually left a little of her eyebags in...in most magazine pictures they just photoshop the entire thing out. Of course, no magazine is without photoshop (I believe Sex and the City Movie even made a joke about "Vogue airbrushing")

But her hair looks...kinda unhealthy. I dunno if it's the lighting or low quality but it looks really fried.

she's getting cross-eyed lately. its like she's not looking at you but she is at the same time... O_O or she's staring into space... and her hair looks funny... like the asian bowl cut at first glance (maybe b/c the cut of the bangs) hahahahahaahaha... but regardless, she looks beautiful here... as if she was drawn perfectly *sigh*

thanks!!!

Not a very nice cover... Of all the photos they took, this was the best for the front page?

Close your mouth now

Very nice yeah all pics are photoshopped on mag but it's a very pretty pic I think.

It's better than the ViVi cover at least...

I just wish Ayu would look herself more often instead of like an idol.

LAME
too photoshopped

that looks like Sparkle hair :)

me too~
I mean, its not too bad or too ugly...
her eyes are beautiful though :)

cute. hopefully the scans will be good!

Thanks.

But as I don't like her new haircut+it's so light+too many photoshopped=I don't like it.

I love it! I hope we'll have scan soon!

She sure does overdo the whitening effect. It would be nice to see her try anything new for magazines.

Cute. But a little dolly IMO. Still i like it. :D

lol
i like it!!!

lol ditto that, it ruins the pic for me when i see eyebags~~

looks really natural, and the lip thing is a lot less....

Namie is prettier in cover but don't like the wig; ayumi looks weird her face her eyes.

not good picture of Namie but she still looks pretty.

I think she looks cute. Anyway, this is not the first time for us too see Ayu too photoshoped. It's getting boring ...

Well its somewhat better than this other cover she did. XD forgot which mag it was from though.

@_@

She looks a little...off.

Yes! I completely agree! That stare + her mouth being opened makes her look so stupid.

too 'glittery'
i'm illuminated already:thud

This is not the "next level". Lies Ayu, lies.

I kinda like it. I want to see the inside pictures though. :D Thanks for sharing~

Oh...

This is Cawaii's last issue, isn't it? When do they stop production?

I....really don't like this. :thud

Photoshopped too much again.

she looks like one of those alterna dolls...

i like the cover, but yeah they overdid the photoship! there's like 0 lines of her face, everything is white :P

Wow then every magazine model in the world had surgery in her eyes to remove her eye bags :rolleyes There's something called sleep which usually gets rid of eye bags. And make up and photoshop do wonders.

Ayumi is in Cawaii Magazine again on May!!!

I totally agree with you! :yes

i dont really like the cover that look too "fake " i hope the inside pics will be betetr i can't wait to see the full scans

know why it is a bit unnatural?! coz of the lips colour.. it is way too pale... i think its the lighting or the photo edit thingy... i think it is too white for a real human... haha but i still like the cover.. CUTE!! thanx for the update!!

ayu-stylish~~

We don't have the scans ?

^ ahh i know right? i'm anxious to see them. also it's common knowledge that the scans are practically always better than the cover :P

There are better covers than this one....

^duh.

Thanks!

It makes me wanna get a copy of this mag. I wanna know the contents! Hope it has many pages of Ayu interview. hahahaz.

Not bad. Seems typical for a Cawaii cover, but it's not too bad. :)
Thanks.

OMG shes so pretty! :D

This is another recent magazine cover which does not look like AYU at all......-_-"

huh? is it just me or is this a good picture of Ayu? I like it. She actually looks like herself. She's been sooo different lately, thinner nose, slimmer jaw, different eyes. Imo recently she looks more "perfected" but this photo makes her look like I am... era Ayu. Only thing I don't like is the color contacts. I hate those. Her natural irises are so much prettier.

10x for the pic :)

A BEST 2 -WHITE- CD+2DVD+BANGS

wow.. what?! not one of her best covers, hEh. wonder what the pics inside will be like. sanks for updating~.
