I was expecting something a lot weirder. But that's ok, because she looks gorgeous (and really young!) and different. She's never done a cover art based on something so obvious as a national flag, but it looks good.

I like them, because I just loved the ViVi shots we got. I'm kind of surprised that they used this shoot though. Would have loved the other ones with her in the leather jacket against the wall to be the cover shots.

i'm really impressed by these covers, i didn't have much hope considering the recent string of fails but, go ayu!

i think i like the CD only one more, although her eyes are beautiful in CD+DVD

I'm here everyday except I dun post until ayu has something new coming out, or some interesting topics attracting my eyes. And I think lots of us (older fans) have already debated/discussed with the newer fans about her new direction of music. Overall I think it's just our tastes towards ayu/her music are a bit different. Newer fans are attracted by her newer music/videos/whatsoever, so it's understandable that they get excited by her recent music easier than those of us who love her past music. Also, we were used to her dramatic changes (esp her images), so sometimes we hope to see her making some bold statements instead of giving us something like sunrise/sunset.

But after all, I believe all of us love ayu. If not, we won't even bother to post here. Criticizing is not a bad thing as long as it's not something really harsh. Not that we dun love her new music, it's just the level is not always over 80% (the passing grade for an A-) .

Actually, I really liked Sunrise/Sunset (when it came to the music/PVs) as an old fan sooooo..... eh. I think I might just be an exception, haha. I came onto the fan-scene after &'s release, which was pretty amazing. It'd have been even crazier if I were actually a part of it during 2001/2002 when I listened to teddy bear / For My Dear, but... I don't think AHS was that big at the time and I wasn't interested in forums at 11/12, haha.

For me, a lot of the people I knew that frequented AHS from 2003-2007ish have left the forum for the most part. I think they just fell out of love with Ayu or moved on from listening to Ayu primarily and Ayu is just a bit of a distant memory.

I think the cd only covet is a little off. I think it's cuz of the cheap flash hitting in all the wrong spots. It would have been wiser to do that shot in a lighter area. The cd+dvd cover is awesome! I love it.

I'm def not a "new" fan either, and I don't really think sunrise is that bad. The composition and to a certian extent the structure is very different from her past summer singles. I think people, new fans or old fans are too quick to label her songs when they don't like them or discard them simply because they have some reseblance to a song she relesed earlier (Which all of the songs she releases will have to a certain extent considering the enrmeous body of genres she's done already). I remember when talkin'2 myself came out and it got so much praise even if it's not really a ground breaking song in any way for ayu, and definitely not more so than sunrise is.

tis is way earlier than i expected to c the covers. i am definitely liking the cd+dvd version. pure loves. i like they placed the album title on her cheeks. kinda cool and diff. definitely wayyyyyyyyyy better than NEXT LEVEL, and (miss)understood covers. i'm glad that the theme has nothin to do with circus. =)
i jus wish she would have use a full body shot for the cd only version. cos her outfit is so amazing. so it's kinda a waste.
p.s i have a feelin the limited box with have the same cover as cd+dvd

I love the Unpleasable Fanbase and/or Broken Base that AHS is. XD

That aside, I love the covers. They were what I expected them to be. While the CD-only has a bit of an "I will stare into your SOUL" vibe, I still like it. <3

The only thing I ask of this album now is that I will instantly love it. ^^;
