I'm sold already.
I knew this would happen.
That's probably why avex released that classical album: to give Ayu time.
She works her ass off anyway. She can push out an album a week.

I told y'all we'd get one!
This better be 'I Party Alone' featuring the songs 'Days Alone', 'Me & I', 'Free & Lonely', 'Sour Scar', etc...

I truly hope she proves me wrong this time around.

Spoiler:
We had such a nice time. We started dating in t2m PV, took it slow you know, let our love grow. Then it got really serious in 2008. Then after AT2009 we moved in together. It was lovely. Then on AT2010 he asked me to marry him. He was such a sweet. And Ayu gave us our blessings. She was also such a sweet. Now me and Maro are such a sweets together. Aaaw, how time flies.

Although it's not a common practice, it's not unusual for an artist to release a mini-album and then put the majority of the songs from it on a full album (2NE1 (Japanese release) and OLIVIA have done it). As Zeke said, she hasn't been following her usual formula lately (no physical singles released prior to "Party Queen" and releasing mini-albums in single format) so there's no telling what she'll do with the little information we have. While some feel that she would have included information with this announcement that the songs would be on the album, it wouldn't make much sense for her to do so as she is currently promoting "again" since it is her latest release that's out right now. No one would buy it if people knew that the songs would end up on her full album right now so it would be smart on their end not to announce the songs this early. Although I'm not saying that the songs will definitely be on the album, it's not completely out of the realm of possibility. I would prefer it as I have not purchased "LOVE" and "again" just in case she pulled this stunt but the possibility that all the songs could be brand new is just as likely so I'll patiently be awaiting the release of the tracklisting information before I make a decision to buy the mini-albums.

Korean 'minis' are more like singles. If you look at most things called mini-albums in the J-pop industry, they usually don't end up on other releases.

She just put them out as a mini album because she has 'Singlereleasaphobia'
It's a rare condition and commonly affects women who're almost at an age where their amniotic fluids rotten.

Something wrong there? Pretty sure Yahoo kinda just went with whatever RIAJ had after trying to stick to what avex was saying about the ~mini albums~. I don't think they're going to put the 7 songs from the minis on here.

^ Nope, they put it as an EP which all EP's end up on the Singles charts.
RIAJ doesn't have a cat. for mini albums

I always thought it was as easy as Ayu and Avex trying to get a #1 album this year. Even though the race already was lost they probably thought they might as well try it out, just in case. There's no harm in trying.

If no song is released as a single cuz Ayu has Singlereleasaphobia, that's like 12-13 songs plus inevitable interludes unless Ayu ditches them (I hope so)

But like I said, she also has never not released physical singles before an album like "Party Queen" and she also hasn't released mini-albums formatted like singles either like "LOVE" and "again". That's the point I was making. She's done things recently that she's never done before so it's been pretty hard to determine what she'll do if she's changed her formula recently from what she's done for the majority of her career.

I was referring to 2NE1's Japanese mini album as an example (which is why I put Japanese in parenthesis next to it). All of the songs on their Japanese mini album with the exception of one song ended up on their full Japanese album. OLIVIA is Japanese and the majority of the songs on her series of mini-albums ended up on her album.

As I said, although there's a possibility they won't end up on the album (she stated before that she had enough songs that she made during the "Party Queen" era for a second album so she has the material to make this a completely original album), it's not completely out of the realm of possibility. As much as I would prefer not to have to buy "LOVE" or "again", having an album with all brand new songs is even better. My wallet would be screaming in agony but it would be better in the end, especially for those who purchased "LOVE" and "again".

Well, with the competition (like four best albums or so) I don't think they thought they were getting #1 anyway.

Where they were released doesn't really matter. I wouldn't expect their management to really follow 'standard Japanese practices' anyway.
