CDTV reveals cover for 'M(A)DE IN JAPAN'
 

Ayu's hands bound with rope. I am guessing this is CD+DVD. Text is average.

A comparison with previous covers -


LOVE it. We'll probably get the other versions later this week.

oh wow...I thought we will get oriental concept..but we got this...I wonder the meaning behind it

I was like, I should check the forum for news about the cover before I go run errands. Such perfect timing. I can't wait to really see it in detail. I'm bout it.

looks very interesting!

love it!! she looks amazing even in this low quality picture

thank god it's not beauty shot :yes

Now for PV shoots!

Free & easy feeling

oh, damn

I'm going to wait until we get a HQ reveal, cus I feel the fish lips are back. If it's not the case however, I'm really liking what I see.

And GTG at "M(A)DE", ugh.

I don't think we have the weird lips. This photographer seemed to discourage that if it's the same guy I'm thinking.

Interesting - was not expecting this.

I suppose you could look at "(A)" in terms of being enclosed within a primarily defined space.
She was made as Ayu and she is forever linked to that image, as she is primarily defined by the public and fans, continually being compared to herself and the image/icon that was built from it. People don't see the person, people see the product, and expect her to eternally live up to that.

This is probably her edgiest and perhaps most conceptual cover in a while aside from Party Queen since... the early 2000s?

Interesting.

This cover is so iconic.

-sparkly eyes-

Wow I adore it! :heart Thanks for sharing

Looks like a strong symbolic cover instead of weak symbolic with lots of fashion / filter / stylish image cover.

We haven't seen this kind of cover from ayu for a while, tho?

CDL must have really impacted her to inspire this and the lyrics.

I wonder if we'll get a version that's not a close-up.

I'm in love with this. Looking forward to a HQ version~

I think CD only could be further away. That or perhaps TA versions?

I hope it, I am tired of close-ups, though this cover rly rocks!
