Yeah, I don't think any of her covers come close to this one in terms of sexuality. She has been naked on covers before, but I thought those covers were great because she looked beautiful while at the same time not screaming in your face sex.
And yes, she has a lot of female empowerment songs, but I don't see any connection between that and these covers. Female empowerment does not necessarily = sex.

In public those people are always happy and always smiling. They always look their best. (Ayu)
But inside they are alone and scared and just two steps from ending it all. The covers are sad and haunting really. I think this is most likely the closest we have ever gotten to how she truly feels about herself. (with the pictures and the twitters!)

Yes, I get that is what the concept is
supposed to be. What people are saying here is that it doesn't come across and I doubt anyone would have picked up on it if not for Ayu herself having to explain it on twitter. If the concept actually came across better, I would probably like the covers actually.
