[Namie Amuro] She's the Queen of the Board ~Checkmate!~ The 62nd Thread

[AyuHamasaki01]

Beautiful cover! I love her hair.

[Beauty4123]

can't wait to see scans! that cover is fierce.

[R_Hikki]

Loving the Glamorous cover. Best Namie cover I've seen in a while. It actually shows her body!

[adantatu2]

one of her best covers for magazines

[Earth_maiden]

she looks gorgeous, and not tired for once...

[Kaiouforever]

She looks more tired there than other covers I've seen! xD But still a pretty picture

[Corvina]

That's one of her best magazine covers I've seen, beautiful!

[kayokyokufan]

I agree. Her natural beauty shines through. As cool as it is to see the really done-up ones, it's nice to see her with less glitz.

[toniayu]

well...i don't like the glamourous cover ._____."

Found some lyrics, don't know if they're correct...

『Fight Together』

作詞：Nao'ymt
作曲：Nao'ymt
編曲：Nao'ymt
歌：安室奈美恵

夜が明ける前に旅立とう

まだ見ぬ明日を迎えに行こう

そう決めたこと悔いはない

Oh I know what I'm supposed to do

どんな試練が待ち受けていようと

高鳴る鼓動　止められはしない

目指す場所はただひとつ

Fly to the light

たたかいの果てに得た絆

誰にも傷つけさせない

握りしめた手　開けば

そこに力が宿る

さあ始めよう

新しい世界が呼んでいる

ほら見てごらん

いくつの海　隔てていたとしても

いつだって支えている

恐れずに前へ

忘れないで

We fight together

穢(ｹｶﾞ)したことはない

あの日 見上げた

どこまでも高く　広い空

ずいぶんと遠くまで来た

それぞれの誓いを胸に

迷いなどない

背負うものがある

陽が昇り

悲しみさえ等しく照らす

信じてるんだ

いつかひとつに繋がる未来を

一緒に見つけにいこう

君の代わりはいない

忘れないで

We fight together

^ an HQ version already! i love it! ONE PIECE has pretty long openings compared to other animes i've seen.

[KarenPang]

opening/ending theme songs from animes are usually 1:30 min long . ONE PIECE seems to be the only exceptional case where it's 2:30 mins

But that long preview of Fight Together sounds great

[neuteka]

If I correctly recall, One piece has long openings to make up for having no ending, toei apparently can't afford to buy endings for One piece or something.

That opening kicked major ASS! One piece is my current favorite anime/manga and Namie is my favorite singer next to ayu~ This was definitely an opening to look forward to

[KarenPang]

my younger sister watches anime a LOT so I remember that she told me that One Piece is probably the only anime that can afford to have a 2:30 mins opening no.

Other animes that she has seen , both the opening & ending theme songs are 1:30 mins

But it can't afford to have an ENDING. It doesn't matter how much your sister watches any other anime, budgets were cut for One Piece and they compromised by spending less money by lengthening the OPENING than paying someone to sing for an ending.
If you've ever watched one piece you would know that it doesn't exactly have the biggest budget. If you knew anything you would know that it used to have endings but they stopped making endings about 3-4 years ago and replaced it with long openings. Do your research.

Sorry to go off topic... Can't wait for the song in it's entirety~

[dreamland2.0]

Wahhh it sounds really really good!!!!!!
