I'm reading the comments on mixi... I don't think the PVs have been released yet, because they're still waiting to see them. Haha. But many people have commented on how gentle and nice Sunset is. In fact, someone compared it to HANABI, which is great news =D

Some comments on Sunset: I've seen one say that she has returned to her old voice (I can only hope that one is true^_^). Also, It is like Days combined with Curtain Call.

I've also read that the Sunrise PV looks very white, but that her nose looks weird.(possibly due to the lighting) Also someone said that now they are even modifying her pvs, like her photos, to hide signs of aging.

yikes... Even Japanese fans are saying her nose looks weird. For the record... don't think it's the lighting. *sigh* But I've come to accept the new Ayu!

lol The Japanese has been saying she's been looking a bit off for years. Some don't know what to think, some just say "OMG PLASTIC SURGERY!!!"

But, the lighting, the camera angles, the digital effects... that can all change your appearance.

I guess we'll be getting quite a few close-ups (or side-shots) if they're really talking about her nose. lol

Ah, so you're reading 2ch too~? wwwwwww.

I bet the nose thing is probably from funky lighting. Why would they edit the video? I don't think they've done that in the past..

^ I think they are referring probably to the supposed white lighting. The stronger the light, the more washed out someones face will look and therefore it is harder to see wrinkles and what not.

I love Born To Be... but yeah, that music video was terribly executed. Just a little less wattage, Ishii. Damnnnnnn.

I'm sort of expecting her to be enguled in sunlight for both PVs though, haha.

Even kazuyoshi's PVs aren't as bad as Born To Be... (imo).
The idea of Born To Be...'s PV was fantastic but the execution was awful.

*saved the huge cover*

Days is my favorite ballad ever and Curtain call is my favorite piano ballad of ayu (well still going against teddy bear) so I'm going to be pretty-eared from Sunset most likely (a new ringtone for me celly as well).
A big yay ayu you did it! (If that so).

Btw are there those huge covers with the single's font?
Like the original covers (with ayumi hamasaki Sunrise/Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~ on them).

They always retouch PVs and photoshoots. I don't see it as a big deal. She couldn't have gotten that many wrinkles since her last PV (which were also retouched), so I'm not worried. I'm just excited to see and hear and hopefully enjoy.

Retouching photoshoots are a given even for super fit beautiful models (sometimes the retouching notes are ridiculous.).. but.. PVs? I doubt that they want to spend the money to retouch video.

^You'd be surprised. Pvs, well films in general always have digital enhancements of some kind, so its not really that far fetched. Its not even expensive with the digital technology there is today. Alot of it is on set enhancements too, as said before, like lighting and such.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_intermediate

After thinking about it, yeah, maybe videos nowadays are being retouched, and I'm pretty sure they have been for years. Usually the lighting is retouched, but I know artists look sharper, cleaner, and better looking after the final edit.

Some people don't want to watch her videos in HD and see all her wrinkles and imperfections lol

That makes no sense at all. Sometimes AHS just dies like that because it feels like it. If something were to leak, I'm sure the server would completely crash, yo.

Now that the chaku-uta are out to the public though, I'm sure it'll pop up when people wake up [it's 5-6am in Japan right now]

Was it not in english?
Were you unable to comprehend my words?
...then it makes sense.

Also, considering how early Sunrise leaked, it's always a possibility.
AHS never completely crashes, at least not for me, regardless of what's being posted there. It just always goes down for a few minutes and comes back up.

And to stay on topic, how can one say that the single is varied when we haven't even heard five seconds of Sunset? Hm...
