even though almost everyone on ahs was disappointed that trouble isnt a full length album and the promotion seemed to be absolutely confusing, i get the feeling that people in japan are appreciating it a lot and ayu is drawing a lot of attention through the 'bad promotions'. i actually think it works. she gains a lot of positive messages which I absolutely love!

do anyone have a translation

Message from ayu 2:15

feel free to correct the mistakes


"Hello everyone, I'm Ayumi Hamasaki. Have you heard my new album "TROUBLE"? This time promotion was quite different. It started from the demo track and every week we opened a piece of puzzle. Did you feel happy looking forward every week? This album is made from various elements. It contains my mood, and I hope that everyone can find a song for their own mood on the album. If one of the songs can integrate into your life and become your joy, it's a happiness for me. This year is my 20th anniversary. I've got a lot of feelings from it. I would like to thank everyone for their support since the beginning, because it's 20 years that everyone gave me. So in order to repay to everyone, I will continue to dedicate to you year after year. Please advise me from now on. Cover for this album was filmed by Shimomura-san, and I hope everyone like it. I also hope that with this new album TROUBLE, I will be able to bring you an unforgettable summer ayu."

Found this at Shibuya station, Yamanote line and thought people might want to see it. =)
Took me 5 minutes to get a picture without people on it. lol

Yamanote line promotion seems nice. And the message? If people keep asking and speculating whether she retires or not after this message then I have no questions xD

That is really nice message:love. Thank you for translation Aderianu:)

Ninki for TROUBLE: 53.2.

I was excited) Even if I didn't like demo, I was interested to see how it's progress every week. That was definetely something unusual. I would like to know more about her working process.

I miss beatfreak track-by-track interview where ayu told us about each song

Yeah, I miss it too but at least in magazine interviews and stuff she would go over songs even after beatfreak/TeamAyu mag interviews stopped. I think she could possibly talk about them on IG or Twitter too but who knows if that will actually happen. Maybe if these tracks end up on another release...

Considering this is an EP, that's alright I guess. I am pretty much expecting Perfume to get that #1 anyways, hopefully she sells enough to get that #2.

This time we will have digital numbers too (on a different chart) I'm excited for that

Oricon does that now? What do they include?

I don't know their criteria, but they do count digital sales (maybe iTunes and Recochoku?) since the end of 2016.

For example, Utada Hikaru's Hatsukoi digital sales by Oricon:

Interesting!
