[Koda Kumi] The 117th Official Thread ~walk to the future~

[krauterol]

I prefer the first hairstyle! (L)

and OMG! suki de x3 is doing better in charts than crossroad!
I can't understand why avex is going to release the same day both materials, even when they know that at that point kuu can outsell ayu and let her lose her #1 strake.
Maybe they will use their "magic" to change the numbers xDD who knows hahahah

[agashi]

haha i dont care about avex marketing strategy anymore since they robbed my money~ lol
SEP 22 will be the historical day for me^^

[Cherry Dynamite]

OMG AWESOME CM

[Lee^ChaN]

OMG!! she looks so damn pretty
Love the 1st hairstyle~

[LacusClyne]

As the days drew closer, I'm scared to see how both singles will do on the chart.. I'm scared of the kuu bashing, luckily this is a ballad single, or u can bet that there will be fools who bash kuu for selling with her body or something lame and retarded like that...

But I'm excited at the same time if kuu sales can really be close to ayu! It's good for kuu, proving that she got good sales.

Am I the only one who feel this way?

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

OMFG THE CM IS SOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL

thanks for that!! XD I love it

What kuu bashing? I've seriously not seen anything extraordinary happening because of the 2 singles being released on the same date

What I mean is that the same ones that bash kuu all the time are the only ones I've seen bashing her lol and not others because of the singles thing.



You shouldn't feel scared. I'm pretty sure ayu is the one that gets bashed the most, and by her own fans mostly, which I find pathetic.

Also, funnily enough, I think you are the only one that seems to be bringing the ayu vs kuu to the kuu threads lol I haven't seen anyone else bringing that up but you. I understand you might be worried, but sometimes is better to let things go a little and forget about the "VS" thing? (Sorry if it sounds a bit rude, I don't mean it that way)

[freedreamer]

AWESOME CM!

(p.s im worried for Ayu...and thats a good thing for Kuu >.<)

[fuawas]

A new mini-tour??? *O* I'd love to see Kumi doing an acouistic concert

And that's a really nice CM, I like it ^_^

[krauterol]

^
me too! hahahah
Though I have the feeling that this single could outsell Crossroad (it's 10 times better!) I honestly think that Avex won't let ayu lose her strike.... what is sad

her previous singles moon/gossip candy sell very close... and considering is a kuu ballad, she have all the numbers to sell a little more than ayu. let's see...

Maybe you should judge when full Crossroad song + PV are released, and we haven't even heard 1 second of Ayu's version of SEVEN DAYS WAR, nor have we seen even a glimpse of the blossom PV.

Just defending Ayu here, because Suki dex3 / anata dake ga really is an amazing single! Suki de has been stuck in my head I just don't really like the PV, it's soooo dramatic, but it kinda fits the song. I'm also worried for Ayu, good job Kumi!

Ok, that is true. It's just that I can't say that ayu's single (even if they're just previews) is giving me a good feeling. I don't like what I heard, sorry.

[ALPHY]

There is so much promotion going on for this single. It's amazing. Kuu-chan is standing strong with this one!

[do it again]

here's the music.jp chart
suki de debuted as #1!


it's also #1 at mu-mo.

[Cherry Dynamite]

Glad it's doing well on the charts
Can't wait for MUSIC STATION~

[Beauty4123]

kuu looks so lovely in that ichikami CM!

[emi♡]

omg she's gorgeous...she's just such a beautiful person, inside and out.

In any case, I really hope that the Japanese public decides to dish out for both Ayu's and Kuu's singles.

How many cover songs has Kuu officially released so far? Avex loves to repackage previously released material so I'm sure that we'll have heard some of the songs on the album already.

"Got To Be Real" will probably be on it, maybe "Venus" too, is there anything else?

[Beauty4123]

i don't really love covers, but hopefully they'll be good songs

[U-GO-BOY]

omg, imagine Kuu'd do a cover of Push It xD
