Now the song is apart of this massive single project. She's taking risks and I would think the majority would find it refreshing. But like you I hope she doesn't fail. However, I really do feel like the public interest in her is moderately well enough to prompt success with this project.

well, time to have some faith, I guess~ xD

@ストロボ・EdGE : I think this 3 single project is a big deal

Ayu's being so different this year (which is a good thing, for me), I can only hope she's not overdoing this, gets tired, and ruined her voice >.>

We can start a prayer circle.














Oh, and buy the singles. That would probably help too!

Yeah I was debating it but I listened to the clip of MOON and the clip of Blossom 4 times maybe. So I somewhat know the sound of these songs - but now that I know it's a 3 single project, I'm debating if I might wait until the release date of the 50th single and listen to them all that day. But I don't want to hear an amazing fresh Summer song when Summer is over. I'll be sad I didn't get to enjoy it that Summer. Lol.

AHS would literally freak if there was another HANABI. Everyone is obsessed with them (although they are good songs). I just think the whole community would blow up with anticipation and reviews! I think I'm up for the idea.

HANABI~episode II~ might be one my favorite songs, like, ever. Out of the whole medium of music, not just Ayu or Jpop-wise. And I know that may sound like an exaggeration, but it's the only song I've ever been able to listen to without tiring for pretty constantly, (for me at least), a long period of time, which is two years and still have an emotional pull and connection on me. /shrugs/

So I'd love another Hanabi! Ep. 1 was amazing, ep. 2 was, well I already talked about it, so I think a third might blow my brains out.

It really took me a long time to appreciate Episode II actually. But now I like it, so I'd like another one if it was done right! I think it's very possible that she'd do this. It'd be great marketing.

I love HANABI series but HANABI ~episode III~ surely sounded surreal xD

Maybe with Yasuhiko Hoshino's comeback this trilogy means something like back to the way she used to be ? But well Don't Look Back sounded like she don't care with the past that much.. I don't know what to expect too

I want it so bad. Aghh now I'm getting hopeful.. Maybe, just maybe, if she does do a 3A single, she'll have Ep. III. It would only be proper, at least I think//

Surreal is the perfect way to describe it, ha. It's been 7 years since Ep. II after all.

Lol, don't torture yourself that way. If it's true that all these songs are done (or at least planned) and are all linked in some way, the point of releasing in 3 different consecutive singles is for you to listen to the first one and think about how the second one will be. Or at least that's what I feel ayu may be doing, since she likes to make her fans think about her works. So won't collecting all 3 and listening at one go sort of ruin the fun and possible deeper understanding of those songs? Like knowing the ending of a story before even starting the book?

I don't know, ayu is so philosophical and deep at times, I can't help but think this way.

@ストロボ・EdGE : but well, seing another ~episode II~ from newer songs looks so uncreative..

[freedreamer]

considering she recorded many songs in April....They've been working on the songs for a good 3-4 months...Im expecting good stuff
