This is definitely not a joke. None of these is amusing. "LOL".

5-releases-for-5-months itself I think is a nice stunt leading to her anniversary. As for contents, I think I remembered someone saying from the beginning that there's no guarantee for all 5 to be all mini albums/new songs/singles/albums/sperm whales/asteroids, so I never expected 5 new-song releases. This final release being a DVD is not uncalled for; everything's been true to her pattern since November (single ("mini album") - single ("mini album") - album - remix album - DVD), the 5-for-5-months is just a way to make things interesting. And it -has- been so indeed.

I have to say I -did- kind of expect the final release to be extra grandeur (being the "final" and everything), but if I knew avex and ayu, I didn't think it was possible. Then again, this might very well *not* be the final release: there might be something prepared for April 8. Or not. You never knew.
