BUT GAWD AYU STOP IT WITH THOSE FUGLY NAILS. It's not cool or unique or hipster anymore. Just completely lame.

I think her hair looks so bad. It's one of the worst parts of the picture for me. I"m used to the nails after Kumi's witch nails >_< those are worse, though. Thank your stars this is as bad as Ayu's nails get.

I don't get it. Supposedly this album moved her to tears, but you don't see that at ALL in the cover. When I look at it I think of a Kuu ***** album. Like it's one big "Shake it" theme or something. What the hell, AYu. you make no sense. I dislike almost every single Album cover you've put out!!! I'd just once like to have one I liked....

[~Amy~]

You know what I don't care what anyone says, Ayumi is the QUEEN OF NAILS. O_O She always has amazing nails! I mean look at those things! They looks like claws but not really claws omg awesome man... just awesome...

I wouldn't be surprised if there's really 3 new PVs since it's usually the case for Ayu's album.

OMg. I cannot believe those are real, even though they are. God Ayu is stupid. She has no sense of style whatsoever. She looks good in magazines because other people design them, but when she gets to design her own album art she lost her mind.

Ever since Memorial Address, her last good album cover. She's crazy. God I am totally NOT buying this album, I'll just download it FREE and then never have to look at the gross covers again.

I'm being dramatic I know but whatever, this is what I'm feeling. I know it's "just about the music" to some people but if an album has an ugly cover then I don't buy it. And I thought she was moving in a good direction with the gorgeous Together When cover and the song itself. Now THIS.

Omg Ayu.. Omg.

I FEEL YOU BB!!!!!! </3

HERE HERE TO THOSE OF US WHO ARE DISGUSTED BY THIS

And to all of you who will complain "ayu just can't please you guys can she?"

NO. APPARENTLY NOT.

[kumikomishitate]

...I would have preferred for those to be fake- I really, really wanted a dark cover and then I get beauty shot. Her happiness in the pictures makes me depressed. T___T;;; Damn you Ayu and constantly disappointing me. ~but, they could be worse.

[evolution7931]

This THING is like (miss)understood the 2nd.
I never thought ANy Ayu album would be able to compare with the uglyness of MU. I was wrong.

[zoomzoom]

^it looks like any of her magazine shoots?

I'm not a Kumi fan so I haven't seen her nail "fashion", but even though there are even worse forms of nails I think the ones Ayu's wearing on these covers are bad enough for me, lmao.

I think her hair looks nice because it looks healthy and natural; Ayu hasn't had natural looking hair in a while. Her hair during the A BEST 2 promotion period was really stiff and wig like and her hair during the summer was all Barbie doll-like.

And I don't know guys. I'm actually glad the cover isn't all emo and stuff. I'm going to quote someone on _ayumihamasaki at livejournal when I say, and in big font since I thought it was a good point,

Instead of it being like "Sigh, I'm guilty..." It's like... "OH YEAH I'M A SEXY BEAST, GUILTY AS CHARGED!" That's what I get from these covers!

And evolution7931...dude, it's just a cover. For one, I don't there's a need to be that angry. Yeah I don't think she's had a good album cover since M.A. either but this cover could be a lot worse. Secondly, if you let an album cover affect your view of the music....well, to each his own.

[evolution7931]

^Dunno, dont care. Ugly.

And I didn't say I wouldnt like the music because of the cover. I said I hate the cover and wont buy the album. I'll probably still d/l it and make myself an illegal copy to play in my car.. and put it on my iPod. IF the music is good enough to merit me going to the dollar store and buying a blank CD for...

[Coelacanth]

I don't like the idea of multiple covers for different versions.. There should only be one cover for an album. In this case, I think the CD only would have been nice if it stood alone.

Well, at least the covers aren't pretentious..

Alright, I was just sayin'.

Ouch. The only thing I don't like about the covers is that I can't read ayumi hamasaki. Other than that, I kinda love 'em.

[s1012h]

you guys are funny
most of you bought (m)u, and that album cover is the ugliest cover from her
so it's pretty funny to me that some people are vowing never to buy GUILTY just cause the font is "weird", and her dress is "bad"
truth is this cover is better than alot of her covers lately

[zoomzoom]

Memorial Adress wasnt that good anyway. Didnt even look like her.

Finally someone who has my view points D:

This is the worst year Ayu has had for me. The only song I've liked is talkin' 2 myself. The rest of them have sucked balls. I don't even think the music will be good. If this kind of cover is what she gets when she is "moved to tears" by the album, it obviously is not good
