New singles crossroad 9/22 and 「L」 9/29 [VI]

[Ranma Matsuri]

^I guess S/S is automatically better because it actually had a "concept". Forget the fact it turned out to be absolutely fug. But to each their own.

[njanjayrp]

I wish crossroad would leak already. Especially now that there is a radio rip of 好きで、好きで、好きで。 and the quality is decent T_T

just watch, it's like they don't even have him in the video. they just said that to boost sails. lol

I think they'd only say they were better because they were kinda themed towards the single...it being all summer and stuff.

Other people might not like her expressions here either...you know...those people...lol

They ARE much better covers though lol


edit: I still cant believe they used that ugly font for S/S...

hehehe~ lovin this, girl

So crossroad is obviously not going to have the extra long sleeve that Mirrorcle World and D/G had, so I guess it'll be in a digipack after all? Or was that tidbit axed?

That tidbit was for L. And it was for special packaging (TBA). They still have yet to specify just what will be special about the packaging for L.

Why would we do a comparison of covers between the 46th and the 49th singles (S/S~LiA~ vs. crossroad)? I'm guessing about it - could the 49th single be taken by the (dreaded) Kazuyoshi Shimomura? I'm suspecting that...

Lol, this!

I always thought there was a mutual agreement between Ayu fans that the Sunrise / Sunset covers were her worst covers ever! :O

because...people were comparing them...because the S/S covers are the worst ever...and some people are saying these are worse...


even though they totally aren't. I'm sorry, but the S/S covers are just BAD. Comparable to the awfulness of hikki's This is the one cover.../shudder

For me they are the on the same with M/b but this one have some pluses (no fringe, nice pose on 1st one, interesting dress) - same with M/b for photoshop, not natural face (like a cg graphic persona) blurry effect. Oh, and the crossroad have good font, but they are not consequestial - diffrent text on each cover.

And they look A LOT better on this forum's users signatures.

Hikki might've had a blank expression on her face, but it's nowhere as horrific as the fake-background, barbie-expression, photoshopped disaster that S/S was.

That's exactly the same as saying the Crossroad covers are worse than S/S. It's just like you said, they totally aren't.

Ok.. so let's look at Hikki's next to the S/S ones..

Spoiler:

jk it's pointless plus that wouldn't belong in this thread anyway.

I need the tracklist for L, like now omg. -F5's TA-

[Picaflor 7/4]

I definitely like s/s over c. (way to lazy and tired atm to type full words). ^ but I will say your set does make them look less eye sore-ish. As I've said before. I just can't believe these are the covers, if anything, they look like they belong in a magazine as a photoshoot and nothing more.

lol sure okay.

[rakeru]

S/S's covers are better only if you like to play the guessing game on whether she's human or blurry wax model.

[adantatu2]

We have to wait for the pv and the song in HQ (i know, crossroad is a ballad), and maybe the cover is ok for this song.
I only love the body of ayu in sunrise / sunset covers, definitly is hott!!! grrrrr. but the design is horrible, it looks fake

Yup, finally got that figured out. It's just that as always info changes so suddenly and I had thought that it was for crossroad too.

Oh btw who was the photographer for these covers?

[truehappiness]

People think it's Kazutaka Nakamura again, but it's not confirmed or anything.

All this crossroad info has me full for the moment, the wait for L info doesn't seem... so bad now. Don't know if I'd be able to say the same if there's nothing by the end of this week though. lol
