The execution of the covers as far as the design, clothes, hair, layout, font etc. for aesthetic appeal is irrelevant in that point of view. So what I was saying is people who are talking about it in a negative sense about execution, concept, style, whatever are all mimicking gossipers pointing out flaws in a celebrity during their fall from grace ("omg, look at her hair" "what is she wearing" "she looks so cheap" etc.) In that sense, Ayu's execution is perfect. If Ayu wanted beautiful covers she would have shot beautiful covers. But I think the point of all the terrible execution design-wise was intentional to further her tabloid concept. It's not just what we look at it's HOW we're looking at it. Do you see what I mean?

Okay, makes sense. So, I guess I don't fall in the category of people who are "falling for tricks" because the things that I'm complaining about are things like the shade of brown that her contacts are I love wearing contacts, but I've always stayed away from that shade. Its just small irrelevant details that I don't like that make me not love the covers.

15 days until official release.
I wonder how many days until the leak...

[TeamAyu2004]

Im hopin for the sunday before! ( i would love before that, but Sunday would be fine)
Besides I dont want it to early because I want to enjoy DH4

I don't know if someone already said this, but her arm's NOT PHOTOSHOPPED. It's just the angle that makes her left arm not visible when not mirrored...

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

Yeah, I never thought it was photoshopped

[TeamAyu2004]

I just think her entire position is awkward. I like the photo, but it is almost like they are trying something not nature or not... well, somthing.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^I don't think so. Imo, it's a sexy, natural, albeit unoriginal pose.

[yamadashun]

after seeing the bigger pic, i notice there are some plant thing on the mentalpiece...

[happiholic★]

Well, I definitely think that the CD+2DVD version is my favorite cover. Its the cover that I'm going to be using on iTunes. The picture itself is pretty amazing, looking at it as just the picture alone, minus any text, etc. I really do love sexy Ayu.

[freedreamer]

I think everytime Ayu has leopard prints, we get a really introspective album. I hope this doesnt differ the more i see the big CD+2DVD, the more beautiful i think she is hahah

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

It kind of looks to me like the photos are on a leopard print carpet. There's some type of greenery by the title on the cd DVD DVD version that looks like a rose leaf. Porportionatley it looks like its outside of the actual picture, as if someone is cutting up and cropping the pictures before going to print, or something.

But I guess that can't work...

[TeamAyu2004]

^ LOL, you remember.. i was thinking after i posted this.. man, that was almost 20 years ago.. who would remember that!
But.. its almost down to the same undies too I think... lol
Maybe she was inspired!

I'm not entirely sure about this, but apparently the track order changed for Party Queen? Originally call was the first track or something like that. This came from the SCawaii interview so I won't know if it's 'legit' until we see it for sure.

[saigodansu]

The weird looking thing below her head is the photoshopped arm that's missing, their idea of fixing her face blending in with her arm. Epic Fail, but that's Avex photoshop pros for ya.

[emi♡]

that makes no sense darling.

[saigodansu]

look at where her arm is in the mirror, from the front you would see that arm below her head
