Yeah, it's like they stretched it out with the smudge tool or something.

I think I get it now. The covers are supposed to look like a tabloid. It's satire.

One arm is still missing
 They photoshopped it out, you can only see it through the mirror XD And wtf is around her face, and the top of her head? It looks like just really bad editing. Talking about the CD+235674DVD one btw. My favorite still the CD only, she looks gorgeous, and thin, as she's always been XD Thanks! Last edited by SURREAL__RAINBOW; 2nd March 2012 at 07:41 AM. |

No! Wait! THIS is what tabloids wanna see on their covers o___o
Quote:
Bigger versions still aren't endearing the CD+2DVD to me...I'm really hoping for a slipcase, or at least a nicer image on the back of the booklet, then I can flip it over xD Also no smudged makeup, she looks totally normal so the "look closely, she's sad!" statements still don't wash with me...unless we're to believe that all her ViVi, SCawaii etc shoots are also "sad on the inside"? If Ayu just wanted to do something random on the cover, she should just say it instead of saying it's deep and meaningful. I still won't like the picture on the CD+2DVD but I can accept it as "just fun", not as some profound statement on the same level as LOVEppears, I Am..., MY STORY etc... On the feminist argument - in my view, feminism isn't doing whatever the hell I want and just expecting the audience to pat me on the back for being a woman and "standing up for women's rights". Feminism is being strong, knowing you have choices and making the right ones to further women's place in business, public and private societies...not doing something that exudes immature or sexist behaviour (because if there was no negative stigma attached to this type of photo, it would have no meaning) and getting asspats for some perceived inequality between women and men. To be "feminist" is to be equal - not special or superior to men. I support men's causes just as much as women's because we are equal. Ayu isn't making some profound feminist statement here. Perhaps she tried, but it was lost in the poor execution. I won't laud prise on something just because of a supposed feminist agenda - that doesn't do justice to actual feminist advances... In the words of Morgan Freeman, who spoke on racism in modern society, "Stop talking about it. I`m going to stop calling you a white man. And I`m going to ask you to stop calling me a black man." - this principle also applies to feminism. When people stop trying to force female superiority by acting "tarty", "****ty", "tacky" etc and then crying about people being "blind prudes" or "anti-feminist" when the rest of the world views it as bad, then people can move on. Feminism won't be needed anymore because we'll be equal, which is what feminism was all about! And we all saw Mannie in the all fours poses, and we all hated that too  No bias over here, either sex in that pose looks tacky. Even if my fave male group posed like this, I'd think it was tacky....and to tell the truth, even if my fiancée did it I'd tell him he looked like he was asking for buttsecks Ayu's had no problems getting the point across for 14 albums, 50 singles and nearly 14 years under avex. I really don't see why this one was so off the mark to her audience. And although I asked it in the other thread, still nobody has been able to tell me why not liking this shoot's execution makes me a "bad" Ayu fan, although from some people's comments it's what I'm being accused of!
