When I saw the thread I thought it was something new. I don't want a compil. At least there is a new song on it but...it's not enough.
I wonder why avex don't pay more attention to her. It's a pity! I hope Avex doesn't want to drop her!

I'm having a hard time deciding which version to preorder. I usually get the version with the DVD but the CD only version has the new song. I guess once we get more information about the content on the DVD, I'll make a decision from there.

should scare you that her staff didn't want the title out so early as well. ;) but once amazon put it up, everyone did.

sure sounds like a final release, especially with the mix of label songs.

never could stand her avex music.

Really? I love her Avex music, lol. Although it looks quite bad right now, I really hope that this isn't marking the end of her Avex career. I really hope this album sells well so they can see that she is an asset at their record label.

The fact that GIZA songs are included is scaring

i honestly never heard her GIZA music (except for the song "are you happy now?") but ever since she came on avex, i've really liked aya's music. so although she's not part of my main artists, i'll still be pretty upset if she does end her career with this album. :( but what if she got picked up by another label? who knows, it could happen, lol. :P

oh no, this sounds really bad, another compilation album could be the end of her avex career!!
she is beautiful, talented, and she makes nice music, she needs just promo !
i hope she can release more stuff in the future like alan

most of the tracklist is out now

　　

so i guess "THE FINAL JOURNEY" is that new song? i recognize the other songs on disc 2 from her 3 mini albums.

Another release from Aya:

The Final Journey -Final Edition-

Price 5000yen (5250yen Tax incl.)
Format DVD (Region 2)
Release Date 2011/09/07

CDJ Preorder Link: The Final Journey -Final Edition-

Description from CDJapan:
Double DVD release from Aya Kamiki. Disc 1 contains music videos of all the single released in her GIZA studio era. Disc 2 features the concert tour "AYA KAMIKI LIVE 2008 - Are you happy now? -" and its backstage footage.

+1

Does her releases get oversea versions? This compilation seems interesting, but Kumi's new single made me a bit poor :innocent

^ all info on the DVD release is out as well.

lmao I checked this morning and nothing was up i'm so cursed ahah
Those are some super awful covers.. This release is so useless.
I was planning on buying it but I guess I'll just pass..

Is it joke? She isn't on the covers.

Here is the website pic:

^ that picture should have been an cover, lol. i love it! :heart

i guess i'll only look forward to those 2 new songs. :P

Although I was originally planning on preordering the limited edition and the DVD, I think I am going to pass for now and figure out if I'd rather buy her GIZA studio albums instead depending on if I like them as a whole. As for the DVD, I may or may not order it at a later time and see if it goes on sale or if I can get it on eBay for cheaper.

aya made a pretty long post on her blog:
http://ameblo.jp/ayakamiki-blog/entry-10991736760.html
(translation made by Utena)

also, aya will still be making music but it'll be distributed digitally (like digital singles?) and she's still with her management, but i'm not so sure if she's still with avex. :shrug it's sad, since i really liked her avex music. :(

I got the confirmation that she'll be leaving avex and remain with her agency Box Corporation. And yeah, she'll still make new music, but nothing will be released physically for now, only as digital singles or so.

Sad news for me, but I hope I'll be able to see her perform someday :)

At least, she won't vanish from the surface of the Earth.
Maybe, her live'll be release in DVD. Who know?!

her career with avex was so short !!!
at least she will release more music in the future.
I hope she can get a contract with Sony
