For Ayu, I think it's like "Circus" is "Cirque" which is "Vegas" for her.

the covers are very simple, ayu looks gorgeous, but just again way too simple, only can hope for great booklet pics.
my favorites are CD+DVD and CD Only, the bluray version looks kinda creepy haha.

Covers for A ONE are fantastic, simple and not pastel coloured, love it. LOL! At those that read into Ayu's hair and viewed it as an 'L'.

CDL covers are, interesting, I like them but don't love them. Concept was expected, and better executed than what first thought.

I was expected for something iconic and epic so I'm pretty disappointed with covers. CDL cover is too much photoshop.

The BD editions was nice although it was so generic for her. Slash that. All cover was generic. In the other hand, CDL cover was tacky.

Only Ayu can turn selfies and turn it into an album cover. Kind of expecting the usual "A" logo tho

The album covers are a bit magazine but they're really pretty. I like the CD+DVD and +Bluray a lot. Her eye is weiiird on the CD+DVD though, I can't unsee it and it's ruining the photo.

The CDL covers just look awkward and too edited, did they even edit on the rabbit ears?

I think the album cover fits the songs. Would people prefer another Party Queen cover for them to be 'interesting'?

I adore the album covers!! Her natural look makes the covers amazing. And the typography makes the covers elegant.

Hey, remember the time when Ayu made an effort making album artwork with a concept?
Like I am... or Rainbow??

Good times those were!

It was also a weird time for her as a person though judging from interviews. She obsessed over her image and starved herself to be skinny among other things... wasn't healthy. I think she's let go of a lot of that aside from her concert standards.

HOLY SHIT I LOVE THE ALBUM COVERS. CD-only is definitely my favorite. Blu-ray version seems -just- a tad off, while the CD+DVD is just good.

The CDL covers, on the other hand, are total catastrophe.

for some reason album covers looks more like single covers than album

they are super pretty tho but still singles have usually different feeling than albums

She's almost 40 now. I think she should be able to assert and convey that kind of vision and strength in image with more control over her insecurities than she had in the past.

One that I don't understand is why they covered her tattoo in one cover and the other not.
