I would rather they hold this back a bit further more. A 3D2 would be a more appropriate release.
Personally I feel that the tours DVD are lacking in quality. The past tour DVD comes with more content and are properly packaged. Don't know is it due to the time constrain or they're just lacking in creative personnel.

[polka-dot-jewel]

^ I completely agree with everything you said.

The content has been slowly decreasing through the past few releases. I wish there were more behinds-the-scenes videos on recent DVDs, more special screens... just more bonus content. Even the CDL~HLS~ cover could have been a whole lot better.

I do hope they release A3DII as well. It does seem a bit appropriate, seeing as it's about to to (or has aired?) on TV. I'd love to own it on blu-ray, I loved seeing it in theatres! (And I'm slowly upgrading my Ayu collection from DVD's to blu-rays, and I need AT10 in general on blu-ray )

Missing is just.....i have no words....T.T
so amazingggg esp that piano tune before the 2nd chorus.
You can feel the emotion in Ayu's voice just coming out...really superb work

edit:
Song 4 u (Orchestra Version) is heavenly

[Delicious n Bold]

Listening RIGHT now!
Holy moly.
Missing is just wow.
its kinda weird to listen to the whole thing cuz i overplayed the snippet (200ish times). but its so nice~
But why does Missing go quiet for a second at 4:09? I can't handle that.

And I'm kinda glad that You & Me is "on" the album. I was dying for an instrumental long taimu. I love that cheap song!

[Kazeyomi]

^
omg I thought to be the only one.
It's like the same annoying break on the Youtube ver. :/ WHY? Missing is too amazing T_T

Actually all three songs are amazing. Even Melody
LOVE screams Ayu everywhere.

[LeeLeeNeko]

Still disappointed because "Song 4 u" is so short but whatever... At least the whole song makes the last chorus even more epic.
"Missing" is gorgeous ! The cut before the last chorus is really weird, it kinda breaks the flow...
"Melody" is nice... I probably won't listen to it a lot just like "beloved" but it's a cute & happy song !

I don't like remixes and these ones are pretty bad... Missing + dubstep is a really weird mix
Song 4 u's orchestra version is gorgeous, MORE !

The CD/DVD Jewel case looks so unusually thin.
They're usually so thick, even with CD/DVD singles.

[TeamAyu2004]

oh.. my ears...
If I thought Melody was bad I should have never listened to that horrible remix...
I think Im in love with Song 4 U Orchestra version
It feels like Im playing the game....

the sad part is, i kinda like the original version of Melody. the remix made me appreciate it.

[TeamAyu2004]

^ Im the same way.
Its not that the song is bad.. its just, boring. The remix makes it look exotic, lol.

over all, I'm a little unimpressed with this mini. we have 2 strong songs (Song 4 U, Missing), 1 okay song, Melody. The You and Me remixes we had a while ago, the dubstep one is fine till all that 'dubstep' crap, and then the ungodly awful Melody remix.... then finally, the best remix of them all the Song For U... the saving grace of the remixes... :*).

[channy]

I find this single to be extremely uninspired. "Song 4 u" and "Missing" are OK, the two "You & Me" remixes are very sweet and the best part of this release, the Orchestra version of "Song 4 u" is good too but the instrumental sounds like something I've heard on countless Orchestra remixes before.

The remixes of "Missing" and "Melody" are unbearable to my ears. Uninspired, predictable, obviously made without any passion. Whose DJ work is this after all? Shame on them xD

The instrumental versions I won't judge, because they are always just as good as the Original mix.

[AyuGAME]

i love the break part...made the song sounds very dramatic and unique
