New single MOON / blossom 7/14, 1st part of 3 single project [I]

[AngelSenshi]

Looking at it though, I wish there was a first press that foreign fans could enjoy; really had my heart set on a poster maybe *laughs* But to be able to have a sneak peak of the next song in the series of singles is quite incredible!

[duque]

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mmmm
mmmmmmm

what is the most "sane" thing to do????????....I mean I hate it when there are 4 versions of the single...I DONT HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY!!! LOL

ok I need opinions....

should I get both cd versions?
or just a cd-dvd?

my mind cant process this completly right now~~~

[hidekirby]

Yay! I'm excited for this new stuff!
But, I absolutely hate when they make 4 pointless versions
And I also don't like when the single title is changing between versions (pointless to).
But exciting!

easy. get 1 of the CD+DVD enough if you dont have much money. dont force yourself to buy it. think about it. are u going to play all of the cds? no right? you can download it. or other way if you wanna support ayu's sales you still can purchase the single track via itunes.

I was so hoping they will be kind and put all the RnRC remixes into the CD version...
But as usual... this is not happening

[Mary Weather]

I'm excited! I might try to buy the single when it's released!

[waterballoon]

hmm if the descriptions were right, MOON and the next 2 singles would be "consecutive"? Wonder what it means... I hope it's a consecutive & consistent theme and not consecutive months lol

Hmm, I don't get this hoo-ha over the word "consecutive". It just means "one after another".

"S/S ~LiA~" and "You were.../BALLAD" are consecutive singles. "NEXT LEVEL" and "R'n'RC" are consecutive albums. Time doesn't matter, consecutive just means things are going to come one after the other in sequence. So the 3 singles are going to come after one another as a set, 48-49-50. And not like 48, 49, 51 as a set, with 50th single being an extra, or something like that.

Nor does theme, for that matter. For all we know, the only thing linking these 3 singles together can just be this project of releasing chaku-uta previews of the next single. Until the 49th single (maybe even the 50th) is released, we won't know the sort of link that exists between the 3 singles. I, for one, doubt that the 3 singles will have too obvious a link between them.

Thank you for this input. Because like when they released Sunrise for example, they didn't mention it's gonna be a "consecutive" single project, so even with You were..., it didn't feel like they were supposed to be associated like a set/bundle or something.

But with MOON, mentioning consecutive gave me the vibes the 48th, 49th and 50th singles are gonna be linked in whatever ways avex deems fit lol..

maybe I'm just reading into things too much...

I can't help but feel that it's probably a ploy by avex to hype up the 50th single. Like, this project really screams out at everyone "WATCH OUT AYU'S 50TH SINGLE IS COMING!!!!" sorta thing. Lol!! Cause if this project didn't exist, I won't even know which single she's currently on.

But knowing the deep person ayu is, I'm sure she'll try to work some interconnecting link in between the singles.

I have faith in that too! And xD it does seem like a desperate attempt to hype her 50th single up... hmm but if they come as a linked set I wouldn't mind it at all (if it was good of course like vogue/Far away/SEASONS)

Actually, if you read the first line of the announcement, you will notice that (like you said) it says there will be consecutive singles for 50th single. But it also says MOON/blossom will be part 1 of 3. It gives the impression that these singles will be connected in some way as lead up to 50th single, so actually I disagree with your statement which says that there's nothing which says they will be connected.

50th シングルに向けて、3作連続リリース第1弾！

Facing towards the 50th single, this is Part 1 of 3 consecutive singles.

I wanna explain further. 弾 is used for counters when all parts make up one full legend, or a story, or like a manga series. They all have something in commons, and they are the part 1, and then part 2, and etc.

It is definitely connected in my opinions.

Between now and July 14th, does any1 know when the first press usually runs out??

I want to buy the single..but a serial numbered card is essentially useless no posters either

other first press gifts are often annoucned later, like posters and so...

But if you are gonna buy in YA I would preorder them NOW cause when they will announce psoter (if they do) the price will increase a LOT!

It is still possible they'll put more RnRC remix tracks on the other two singles. So far they're remixing 4, they still have 8 more tracks they could choose from.

Finally, but is gonna be released while i´m on holiday!!!!!!!!!

I wish CDJ would let me use more than 1 coupon with my order... :/

I love visuals, and I don't usually absolutely LOVE remixes, I tend to love originals a bit more, so I suppose that's why I went with the CD+DVD versions.

I really dont like 4 versions; it's really quite annoying because I'd love to get them all, but can't afford it, especially with two more singles planned for after.
