I'm not a fan of the cover in the sense that the picture from the café looked so much better! I would have loved a full body shot for the cover with the wall she has a hand against showing the title!

It might be hopeful thinking but I really want to believe in a 10 tracks, 2 interludes, no Haru yo koi, no One night carnival situation!

Ideally something like:

Trickstar (interlude)
Nonfiction
New song (upbeat)
Dreamed a dream
23rd Monster
Interlude (tasuku)
New song (rock ballad)
Ohia no hi
New song
New song
Love your vision of this new album ! I want trickstar so badly lol

Yeah looking at the other threads it looks like us two are obsessed with Trickstar ahaha!

It was just the kind of sound I like at the moment, and the fact it had recorded lines just made it stand out - I can't imagine she'd record lines just for a concert interlude?

Same here, I would think she could release the new song. Not sure if I recalled wrongly but she released 23rd monster on the day of announcement right?

I think it appeared at iTunes even before the announcement because of time difference

Ok I read to quickly.
Ayu herself announced it at the end of the concert then? Good.
I'm SO happy.

Considering the description mentions R&B for Nonfiction (even though I’d disagree lol, based on the concert at least), and since she sang from your letter, which leans far more to R&B, I’d love love love if she went in that direction for some songs.

I’m boring maybe, but I love easy listening songs lol. Also, she mentioned Komuro who, at one time, made great R&B songs.

Something like Amuro’s Private would be fantastic too. With Ayu’s deeper register now, I think it could be great.

In terms of jacket, I assume it’s related to the picture from the cafe, however if I had my way—it would be great to have a picture with some depth… instead of a flat closeup of her face in an empty studio lol. I miss her “destination” photo shoots.
YES to all of this. from your letter is one of my favourite songs from ASFXX and PRIVATE is easily top 5 Namie songs. I would LOVE if she went in this direction.

(But if Nonfiction is an indication of what's to come then...)

Maybe she wants to release a summer single first before the new album.

I was wondering if she would release another single but I was like, hmm unlikely because she would announce it right together with the rest of the news

I don't see why she'd be announcing a digital single for, say, July in April.

I understand the logic of announcing the album so early but not all the singles. I can see one ore two more digital singles being released between Nonfiction and the new studio album.

Actually I wouldn’t mind a summer single. I miss her summer single, fairyland BLUE BIRD glitter. Also helps with a new song while waiting for the fall album

Nonfiction is not really the type of song I like. It reminds me WARNING. I am not a big fan of WARNING either.

I really like her recent ballad songs tho.

I hope her next digital single will be a ballad song.

Dreamed a dream
23rd Monster
Nonfiction

Three singles in a roll are all non-ballad songs.

We had Haru yo Koi between Dreamed a Dream and 23rd Monster.

Summer single is definitely possible, it seems like she’s very inspired these past couple of months.

I’d love a classic jpop summer sound from her again

I say YES PLEASE for that summer single from Ayu. Something catchy and popish prefetably because I'm not in the mood for more rock songs atm.

I'm SO happy she did release some songs that are NOT ballads.
We had plenty of ballads already :p I want a catchy or rockish album for once, it's been a while !

If there would be no songs from A BALLADS included (also I just dont listen to Ayumi's ballad anymore - have I ever tbh? lol) I will be satisfied. 23rd Monster and Dreamed a dream should be on the album totally (with the new single 'course)
