Hmmmm all i can say that Bea's photoshoot is much better X]

[SheFliesHigher]

Are they TRYING to make her look American? Seriously, she barely even looks Japanese here.

[kuri♥ayu]

thanks.

i normally LOVE Sweet's photoshoots but ECKK! the 3rd pic is terribly scary! what's up with the bug eyes in every shot?!

i like the cover more than Bea's UP. but Bea's UP has better photos ;p (even if they're practically the same)

[Yum!Fruit_Salad!]

Deer in the headlights much? The eyeliner looks so weird on the cover =/

[Taki]

[AyumiBest]

thank you^^

Hello? This photoshoot is like the fricking FUTURE of beauty and fashion!

Well, not really The cover is a bad choice, but I do think the face-on pose with the black-and-white polka-dotted dress is one of her best pictures. The wide eyes, exaggerated lips, and stiff posture match the playfulness of the shoot. It's obviously deliberate they wanted her to look like a doll.

The orange dress is ugly. The other picture has a bad angle.

Not a terrible shoot, but not great either. Mediocre.

Thanks for the scans! I agree with a lot of people here, and I don't like the expression again. The clothes are nice! and her hair too

[Aisha_Angel]

Okay....W...T...F is up with Ayu's EYES?!!!!

They are overdone with mascara and big enough for me to see the reflection of the entire studio in them! And what's with the barbed wire dress? What is she a pop icon stuck inside a maximum security prison?

[rakeru]

have separated eyelashes EVER been in style? can the Japanese readers really swallow this?

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

do you people have mirrors at home anyway??


look at yourself and you will see how pretty this pictures are!

[Kobayashiwoof]

lol at the reactions, I wonder if she'll melt if you put her next to the kettle.

[milky_way]

I think the reason why people have such a problem with these pictures is because they're more artificial-looking than normal. The expressions and poses are more exaggerated. This, of course, is all deliberate because the photographer obviously wanted Ayu to emulate the look Twiggy popularized in the 60s.
