I agree that it's illogical to think otherwise. My problem with some artist's interludes is that it takes away from the flow of the album as opposed to actually helping the album be fluid. I don't think Utada has this problem at all though.

on that I agree, but that is a whole different story and if people mean this, they have to phrase it differently. Same goes for singles. Leaving an a-side of an album does not mean we get an extra song.

The U Testament.

If that's what it's really called, that's legit. I like it.

In the article they said there will be no promotion for the album. Like, at all? I get no tv appearances, since she seems very private since her hiatus. But nothing?

I'm pretty sure the title is actually a joke lol there is a link at the bottom of the jpopasia article leading to the blog randomjpop who makes biblical joke names out of everything (e.g. namiesus, koda kehova etc.)

Well... This is actually pretty standart for her. Her comeback singles and blockbuster tie-ins aside, she never really promoted all that much.

Will she have any promotion?? Like a digital single, or something to tease us with what is to come?

This looks like it's going to be quite different for a Hikki album. I'm really really excited.

That's so exciting. I'm not a huge fan of the font, but the picture they used for the cover art is beautiful. I like that it's blurry.

I can't explain how much I am looking forward to this.
Having Utada back after so long. I am not used to it.
I am feeling the hype! I MUST know what the songs sound like.

Love the cover but can someone make a textless version? I hate that it's not cohesive with all her other textless covers lol
