I think she trimmed it more. I like the ashy color better but I'm not sure about the length...

another album maybe? I hope

Let's all cross our fingers and hope so

wow she's recording something new

I don't mind if she releases single not an album though

I just want something with a physical release, so she can tack on TA Tour 2016 for a TA-exclusive release. I'll pay $80 for a single, I just want that tour!

Please let it be a ballad.

But I'm sure it'll be an upbeat summery track.

tbh it's a bit late for a summer single

It's probably going to be a rock ballad titled "Just the Beginning" XD

OMG you're right!

If that really happens I'll just about die laughing.

Or it'll be a track for A WINTER BEST called... Me & You with some kinda weird relation to You & Me.

I can totally see this happening!!! omg....

Summer ballads like HANABI, please.

"I wonder what you are seeing now."

I wonder is it ^ something related to lyrics of new song

with this photo she posted "自分のためになんだったら、出来ないことばかりだよ。
君がいるから諦めずにいるよ。" for me it looks like line from song, but I didn't find from with one

I wonder what you are seeing now and she is looking at her fanny, I couldn't help laughing. But she looks so exhausted and that's not funny.

^ I wonder what she's referring to....

I love this picture and hate it at the same time. It's so raw and honest, it scares me. There's a line in "Sorrow" that goes, translated to English:
I wonder if seeing me like that has made you cry and I think it fits beautifully here.

I can't wait to hear new songs by her. It's been a year since Made In Japan (If you don't count with We are the queens, of course.)

To be fair to her though she had a huge amount of stuff in 2015-2016. 2017 was a 'break'.

I think she put out about 3 years of stuff out in that timeframe.

Ayu spoils us. All other artists I like, don't release as much as she does/did.
Even though it has been quiet lately, I have to agree to @truehappiness that we had a bunch of new stuff in 2015-2016. We are good.
Allthough I can't help but to be very happy to hear new material is coming up!

I hope the silence means good things. Hopefully she doesn't push herself to the limit.
a'nation should be fun to rehearse for, not an obligation. I have so much respect for her!
