Really, you will have a waaaay harder time defending THIS album to your friends I will promise you that.
Depends. My friends are American and incredibly used to seeing images like these on album covers... I don't think they would bat an eyelid. I think the entire "Duty" shoot represents darker sexual undertones... forbidden fantasies, if you will.

Ayu isn't blatantly sexy as often (especially for an ALBUM cover), which is why some people are going to be shocked by this. I was only shocked because the entire middle section of the album looks like they're going to be midtempo ballads and the covers seem out of place. But... we'll see.
