I don't like HS cover, i was really disappointed. But i still think it's better than First Love cover... her hair isn't bad, but style is awful. She really looks boyish.

I agree.
Except for DEEP RIVER I don't like hikki's other album covers.

if i had to choose the fav album cover, i'd choose the ULTRA BLUE one^^ and my fav single cover is Wait&See, Can you keep a secret, Traveling, Hikari, Sakura Drops, Easy Breezy, Be My Last, Passion and Prisoner of Love.

Hikari and Passion are the most beautiful ones^^

btw, when she'll release the second english album?

She looks kind of uncertain/insecure/clueless on First Love.
Her hands look like stumps on the Distance cover, but the idea was cool.
DEEP RIVER was a major success.
ULTRA BLUE is okay, but could have been better.
HEART STATION is the same as ULTRA BLUE. x_x

I really like Distance's cover, it's probably my favourite out of album covers.

Although her best covers in general would probably be traveling, hikari and UH3+ <_<; <3

Distance covers were nice DEEP RIVER's had a really pretty cover, IMO. It was so simple yet beautiful.

If I had to rank my favorite covers (album wise) it'd be:
ULTRA BLUE (gorgeous cover; her eyes and the different colored scarves was a nice touch)
Distance (simply and sweet and beautifully green XD)
Deep River (the whole monochromatic scheme had to grow on me after a while)
First Love (Not the best, but the hair in the face kinda added a bit more innocence to her)
HEART STATION (honestly there's nothing wrong with this cover...just that the lighting made her look more sickly than anything else)

My favorite cover is actually her HEART STATION cover. I like the combination of white background with light blue and pink letters. She doesn't look sickly to me at all - just a pale person under some really strong lighting.

My second favorite is DEEP RIVER, followed by DISTANCE and First Love. The eyebrows on her First Love cover were a little too bushy for my tastes, but her stylist fixed that quickly.

I think her album booklets have the better pictures from their respective photoshoots. I remember there being some lovely ones from the DEEP RIVER one.

Hikki has really bad saggy eyes (I have the same problem ;_ where she has to much skin on the underside of her eye, always making her look tired.
I think it turns me off to a lot of close up photos of her. Thats the ONLY flaw I ever find of Hikki though. So I'm not crazy about the Ultra Blue cover ._.

I think Hikki looks cute with a boy cut x3 It makes her look.. hmm.. cute? I don't know.. maybe even innocent x3 And it makes her look a intelligent. So that means I pretty much LOVE the Heart Station coverrr <33 I don't like the ugly white shirt ._. But, eh, beggers =/= choosers.

And I think with her longer hair she looks really sexy ._. And even better with Box Bangs .. Like in Be My Last <33 she looked amazing ._. and in Passion omg.. what a sexy and mysterious Hikaru >W<

And I don't even think the First Love cover looks like her LOL!!
I was kind of like that with Ayu.. all the pictures I had seen of her before the internet, she had short blonde hair. and then I saw the.. B&D covers? and was like "OMG AYU DOESNT EVEN LOOK JAPANESE ._." ahahaha x3
