Eh, so did glitter, but we eventually got over that, I think. It's a given with Kazuyoshi's photography that Ayu tends to look very inorganic in his photos [look from A BEST 2 / VOGUE NIPPON until now... it gets worse with every shoot!]

The thing about the covers that's hot IMO is that it LOOKS like it's not her body.. but it is... -lovey dovey face-

Hmm in this photo the feathers are in Ayu's hair not her hand as in the "covers".

Calm down i didn't know they were from team Ayu sorry.
Well if they are real I can officially say it, never thought I would. Ayu has a bad cover. And they're not horrible just so not...her. And I'm mad Love is All is not on there.

Maybe it'll grown on me when larger images are released, as of now I'm still bleh about it. For going the 'NEXT LEVEL' poor Ayu isn't reaching for it with these, ^^;;

LOVE the song though! =)

Yea! Why isn't ~LOVE is ALL~ on the covers? >.>
Anyhow...I will wait to make proper judgment on the covers when there are HQ versions, because I can't really tell anything about them from the small pictures that are posted. By the way, thanks th for posting them. I am glad they are finally out though~

Ok, I looked them again and again.
They're not so bad.. but, they looks really cheap.
It seems a bikini catalogue photoshoot.

LOVE is ALL is there, it's just in very thin letters.

I can't believe those are the covers...what's the point of going to bali when the background is gonna be like that...I never expected shimomura to do a great job but I can't believe ayu approved the covers...like seriously?

oh
my
god

Every single one of us could just grab their cellphone, put Ayumi on a REAL beach, make her smile and, just like that, shoot a cover pic that's one hundred times better than this.. this.. "travel to hawaii!"-pamphlet.

Atrocious.

(I'm a little bit disappointed right now, sorry. Might get better when high quality pics are released but this is just terrible)

Even if you didn't like NEXT LEVEL's covers at least the quality was a lot better.

And True, please don't listen to your testosterone this time. Strip yourself of your masculine desires and take a good look at it. That's what I did and then... ( ) If you just not look at her boobs and stomach for a second!

DAMN those letters are small. These lack art. Ayumi has really made a horrendously bad cover. They're not gonna stop me from getting the single (thats ridiculous to not get them because of that) but man oh man I am dissapointed.

I wonder what the first press will be... better covers?

o_o; Seriously? What's with all the hate on the covers? I can understand it's not "like Ayu" at all! But be thankful it's not like this!!

She really needs to fire her photographer. Or give him to Namie! Or Hikaru (seriously, am I the only person who hates The One cover)!

She reminds me of Farrah Fawcett on the cover. XD Call me a drama queen but unless the PVs are kickass and Sunset is better than Fated I won't buy it.

^ I would rather Sunrise/Sunset have Koda Kumi on it than this. Or a kitten getting shot in the face, either one is better than what we have.

I'm not blaming the photographer I'm blaming Ayu. She makes all the decisions, her face isn't that bad but the colours are bland, the setting too ordinary, and a total lack of summer feeling. Wheres the dreamy dayglo visuals of fairyland or the brilliant colors of Blue Bird and glitter? They just look fake fabricated and over sexed.

@HIKARU - Wow...Kuu looks really bad there. >.>
I am waiting on HQ covers. They don't look THAT bad right now, honestly. But I was expecting something more...fun, I guess?

Colors? Bland? The blues, greens, and reds stick out so much! I think some people are just being really really really really really really really overjudgemental on these, haha.
