Words can't even begin to describe how much I absolutely love these covers! They are total perfection & everything about them truly is perfect. ayu's poses, her entire look (I love her hairstyle & nails so much! ) & the color theme. I think that whole dark-ish blue gives the covers a bit of a mysterious & winter-ish feel, which I happen to love very much. The dress ayu's wearing is also so beautiful & ayu's looking so incredibly gorgeous!

I don't even know where to begin, as far as which cover's my favorite! I just love each one too much! But the one I love the most has got to be the Regular Edition cover. It's just so pretty! The music cards are so gorgeous, as well.

After looking at the covers, I'm now more excited than ever for this single! I already look forward to listening to the songs!

^Total perfection! YES!!! They are so flawless I can't stop looking at them from time to time

OMG, very fantastic cover~ but looks like a 'white ghost' LOL
HQ pics please... >_<

[inspire_rmx]

totally stunning. I love her hair color and her dress so much! Ayu just took my breath yet again. Definitely her best cover in a long long time

[pchan1986]

my first reaction on the teamayu edition pic, "she looks like a dead person!". BUT i love the regular cover pic. absolutely pretty.

[clover_bali]

remember me CD DATA magazine (miss)understood era

[~kashifaita~]

It's very reminiscent of MOON/Blossom covers to me, but that's a good thing!
YASSSSS for the return of dark-haired Ayu. I've been waiting for too long <3.

Hmm. I don't really mind the font this time . I have a feeling if it wasn't this plain type of font they would try to make it match her outfit and use some tacky frilly font that would distract from the beauty of the photos. This is just plain, doesn't stand out and easily ignored imo.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Could someone please make a gorgeous PC wallpaper with these photos?!

[Refix]

^when avex release the HQ pic and textless (hopefully) then maybe all the amazing artist in this forum would dying to show their best shot.

So lets agree that no one who haven't graduated in Music should complain about her songs, and anyone who isn't a fashion designer shouldn't criticize her clothes? If something bothers me, I say so, simply like that. For me it is ugly and would make a big difference, but that's my opinion towards the font (not the covers as a whole)

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

With a title as long as this single has, a more elaborate font would run the risk of being really distracting for me.

Not to say that there isn't a perfect font out there, but well, for me simple is best.

Had the title been like H or &, I could see a really beautiful font working, but this title is -long- lol

[KillTime111]

Huge fan of these images, the photography and editing were done very well. The font though.. isn`t working for me.

[Tom Punks]

I think a huge part of the problem with the font though is they made it white... on a very light section of the photo... and then used a tacky ass drop shadow to make it legible. Even though the font choice itself is still pretty awful, they could've removed at least half the ugly if they'd made it a nice blue or something and got rid of the shadow.

As is, the text reminds me of those movie posters on Netflix where they didn't have a cover, so they just took a random screenshot and slapped some words on it lol. There was very obviously 0 thought put into the typography, and it sucks because stylistically it clashes so much with the actually really nice photos and distracts from them.

Even a generic serif font like Times New Roman, set to a small size and in black, would've looked so much nicer. And that's just as effortless! I just really don't get her design team's taste at all.

Edit: I just looked at the covers again and realized... It's Helvetica, isn't it? Like srsly? No wonder it looks so cheap.

[SpiceSquad!]

YES!!!

It's Helvetica italic... even worse
Helvetica, as a font, works better on minimalistic pictures, I think.
Or it can works on a majority of pictures when set as bold (like on the cover of Bold&Delicious).
