:love

Since the covers for both the CD + DVD & CD + Blu-ray are the same , I wonder if the back covers will be at most different ? :3

At TSUTAYA Shibuya

I guess the CDs on TSUTAYA's display are only place holder, with those OBIs.
This whole shoot is gorgeous, I love all the pictures from WINTER of LOVE.

@KarenPang: All the back covers are different: CD FC is almost like the front cover, but she's looking down, and I think the CD Only has this picture:



About the Hello KYOTO event, I think it's great that she's doing stuff in her city.

Btw. Kuu was selected as ambassador for the city Kyoto at that HELLO KYOTO event to present the app of the same name - she's going to be featured at poster in the subway of Kyoto from today on as her first task.
The mayor of Kyoto said about her at the press conference, that she's not only born in Kyoto, she's also a (fashion) role model for young women and has a lot of fans in Japan and overseas.

The best part about the video is when she's inside the house and is in the 'selfie' mode. From the laptop is looks like she's on skype singing to you. haha Love it.

OMG NO ME WITHOUT LOOKS GORGEOUS I NEED IT!!

Cant wait to get home to see On And On btw

Ambassador of Kyoto?? Good for her! Glad the mayor sees her as a role model and not as "the shame of Kyoto." Who the hell even came up with that title for her?

Bad previews of the mv

GOORGEOUS, there is no other way to describe. Even with those weird blue contact lenses.

@jean-baptiste I was about to say that when I saw the article. From "shame of Kyoto" to role model, I wasn't expecting that.

WOW that's amazing news that she is an ambassador for Kyoto - so happy for her!

And I forgot that WOL is out tomorrow! As it's not a release I will be buying physically, I can just get the new songs instantly from iTunes!

I've only heard previews for On and On and NO ME WITHOUT YOU once when they first came out so I barely remember what they sound like. Looking forward to some new kuu. Gonna wait for my copy to arrive, it shipped a couple days ago.

These two new songs are good, but both PVs are low-budget ones but i unterstand Avex that it's not worthwhile now. The final work from her which makes me excited that Dance In The Rain.

I love On And On PV much more than NO ME WITHOUT YOU's PV. But I also have to sat that faraway PV (on It's all Love! DVD in case you don't remember) should have been done like NMWY's because it's beautiful while faraway's PV has always seemed so... boring for some reason, lol.

I'm obsessed with No me without you, if I cried with the Ai no kotoba opening in Premium Night I cant imagine how awesome the The Artist one was for the people that attended; such an emotional song

on the other hand, I hate the On And On PV it looks so messy with the screen divided in 3, like if they didnt know how to fill it up for a TV size version. And she looks reaally tired but I guess that was intentional

Not sure how...but then again, Koda Kumi was born in Kyoto.

WINTER of LOVE CD only

Nice first day sales.
