i didn't really know if some songs from the mini albums would be on this new album, but now they are gonna be on the album after all, i don't really mind so much. i like both mini albums & thought most of the songs were really good, so it's okay for me. i also look forward to hearing those new songs, too. the titles are nice.

and the covers for this albums are so pretty!

I don't get why you guys are so upset, just don't buy the album if you don't like it..it's like getting mad at Apple for releasing a new phone after you've bought one. You have choices as a consumer, don't be a slave to Ayu/Avex. People said from the start that the mini-albums were just glorified singles for a future album.

it's not just about that though. it's her career and her loyalty to her fans. and they definitely advertised this at first as being all new songs.

She's always milked her fans dry from day one. Avex gonna Avex. Even the Melody PV that they pulled is on this..too perfect..bravo Avex haha.

Truly my opinion.

One must agree, we indeed had a lot of people on AHS, including myself, pointing out to others that "LOVE" and "again" were mere singles. A lot fans on here replied with naivety and ignorance, insisting on the singles being mini-albums as declared by Avex, now wondering why they are included in the upcoming album.

It may be a lesson for some members not to buy everything in a rush. Albeit some of you waited, did not buy "LOVE" and "again" and are now free to choose whether they buy the two singles + the new album or just the album, which is fine.

I did not predict anything in particular. Recognizing both, "LOVE" and "again", as singles might have prevent certain people from being disappointed, though.

Has anyone hit you to hard on the head? You may be as disappointed as you like about this release, I don't care, but to respond to channy's post with "Go suck an elf" is in every way disrespectful! I think you should apologize!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLL

So glad I didn't buy anything until now.

I also think it's a little....well, I don't know, like a tick of the list to make a song called "SAKURA."
Everybody has a song called "SAKURA."

I totally even forgot they said it was all new songs.

"new" I guess.

Was that a translation error.

whatev. Not like I'd spend money on her anyways. I'll save it for Koda's next album. Cause she knows how to actually work.



And AWW look at my Meeko

I love you!

This bi-tch went crazy. LOVE again will flop HARD.

The covers are eye-pleasing but also BORING AS HELL.

Don't know why someone blames avex cause avex can't force her to do something like this.

  • The covers are ok for me, but I think they are leftovers from LOVE session. And they are too similar to Love songs... Love love love love love.
  • all the titles sound like a "puking love" crush girl drama songs. I'm so in love. Yeah. You are. Jesus.
  • And the titles just sound stupid, glasses? wth SAKURA? like EVERY JAPANESE RECORD SAKURA TITLED TRACK. -_- Bye bye darling? WHY. only Gloria sound fine but for 90% is a interlude or a sappy ballad (it's between untitled for her & Ivy)
  • I can't believe this is really hapenning. I hope that we will have 3 interludes (not 4) I'm glad for continuation for untitled ~for her~. Even if the typo is diffrent.
I also love you! Wow, great day for me!!

Not entirely expected, but disappointed. Still, new songs right?
Oh, and according to TA there will also be a Playbutton for this?
It says;
【PLAYBUTTON】
・AQZ1-50856 ¥2,100(tax incl.)
※TeamAyuオフィシャルショップ/mu-moショップ/イベント会場限定盤

According to Google Translate this will be exclusive to the TA-shop at mu-mo, is that correct?

I keep retweeting every disgruntled/upset tweet I see directed at Ayu

This hasn't hit me yet. I'm not angry. Baffled, yes, but I keep laughing at the general reaction...of at least the international reaction. I keep seeing mostly okay Japanese tweets. I've seen two that were upset, but the majority of the ones I've read are happy/okay/nowhere near upset.

I hope this sells well so they keep doing a similar cycle for all her releases..that why we get more music more frequently and more remixes/instrumentals but yeah moral of the story from now on is wait at least six months before buying anything with ayu's name on from now on fml. I didn't buy asb, love or again so this suits me fine for a bday present

Japanese fans are not complaining now. But when the album comes out I'm sure they won't buy it. This will sell a lot wrost then again.

I don't blame avex ayumi is to busy right now to write new music. She is in lodon playing around with Maro.
