The awkward moment when you actually prefer the S/S covers to the A SUMMER BEST covers...
But no joke, I think the 2CD is possibly the most terrible cover in her discography. It really does take the Photoshop cake; at least Ayu looks reminiscent of Ayu in the S/S covers, she looks almost unidentifiable in the A SUMMER BEST 2CD. Saying that though, I think the 2CD + DVD looks decent. |

Didn't think I'd see the day when fish lips were preferred to a smile lol. To be honest, this cover is starting to grow on me...

IMO, the worst cover is (m)u in terms of photo only The worst cover is S/S in terms of photoshop. I don't think anyone in this place make such distinction to think the worst cover.

Disc Ayu
Disc Nagase It means summer http://japanese.about.com/library/blkod88.htm Actually, these two covers interpret Happy Summer (CD cover) and Sad Summer (CD+DVD cover), I think covers are quite thoughtful.

Maybe DISC-A means Ayumi

my classmate has just arrived to Tokyo. and she sent me an instagram of ayu's LANDS of Eden ad (made on metro station I guess). this immediately made me think that actually ayu's still there around. she's not forgotten and you can find her ad even now, after 11 years of "the face on every billboard". and I'm so glad about it.
she's obviously aiming on gyaru girls. that's why we had this tanned ayu wearing contact lenses....... what I want to say is that I'm quite worried about sales and charts and so, I hope this won't flop and end up selling 150k only

Interesting titles (for the disk)
she is always so thoughtful! I love her and Im sooo thankful that the better cover is finally a cd+dvd... im usuallyt more happy with just the cd cover but always get the dvd one... sadness! |

I don't think it'll sell even 150k, tbh.
Ayu has overgrown all these gyaru girls, like the past 6 years. don't remember any gyaru aged more than 25. it's a bit ridiculous to be aming at them, I think |

There pretty much Gyarus over 25.
Ageha e.g. just made a (sub)magazine for 25+ ones. Lots of onee and ora ora and other forms are generally older. Though I agree Ayu definitely don't aim at them as her fan base is much wider than that.

If Ayu promotes it like how she promoted A BALLADS (she won't) it could do 200k.

many gyaru graduate at 25 or even earlier. although she might be aiming at onee |

150 is too much... I'm afraid she can reach only 100k

I always think that the "general public", that is - not "fans", prefer buying "BEST" albums over studio albums, simply because they have all the hits. So I think that A SUMMER BEST will hopefully do just as well as Party Queen, if not better.
And the covers are slowly growing on me, but they remain some of the worst in her discography. I can't put my finger on it, but I really dislike something about them. |
