Just do it now. Membership lasts for a year.

People complaining in this thread about being supposedly "screwed over" for the 2nd lottery, have absolutely no sympathy for. If you are prepared to pay for airfares and accommodation to go and see Ayu, the ~$50USD to pay for an annual TA membership is such a small fraction of your costs to go to Japan.

It is ludicrous people feel 'burnt' when you have to remind yourself that the 'international fanbase' still makes up for a minute portion of revenue for avex, Ayu and the wider JPop industry. Be glad Ayu is one of the select few JPop artists that even have an international fanclub.

Maybe they'll do special 20th anniversary ayupans ?

AMEN

Thanks! I'll do it now, then! (:

Thanks, that was helpful!

So this tour will have 3 different chapters

Chapter 1 is about Real World and Dream World, it would be cool if she does this.


Chapter 1 Performing "MW" (Reflection of her 10th Anniversary)
Chapter 2 Performing "Tell All" (Reflection of her 15th Anniversary)?
Chapter 3 Performing a new song for Her 20th Anniversary

Well it's not for sure that each set of dates will have different content. She just mentioned that the separation of a single tour into various parts reminded her of concert tour 2000s vol 1 & 2.

So themes for each part are still just speculation

I'm daydreaming. I like concert tour 2000 because it is not crazily done, and she focuses on singing more than overly performing.

ok, I have won tickets for all Osaka shows. I bought a ticket only for the first show though (July 15). hmmm, not so excited as I used to be about ayu's live, I just feel I can't miss it.

I can't imagine that the three parts wouldn't have different set lists at least (with a few staples like evolution in each part).

I was hoping for a new album still...

It kinda sounds like she hasn't been in the studio for a while so maybe no new album for quite some time. Though I guess a compilation could always come out with a new song or two in the meantime.

I think she was in studio with miccie 2 weeks ago: https://www.instagram.com/p/BSBD0J0D...miccieofficial

^ miccie could've been in the studio for his own projects though. He mentioned ayu because she gave him a gift, but it might not have been related to the part where he talked about going to the studio :)

She could've gone to the studio without telling us though

Whatever she could go to studio for a month and release a full album.

Or using old unused song discarted from other albums like with Love again.

I'm sure she's been writing. Those travels between Japan and Paris are long enough to write 2 full album songs xD (while you might be inspired)

I wouldn't mind if she don't release an album this year and only focus on the tour and anniversary...

I think we can all survive a year without new music. and maybe people will actually appreciate to have new music more next year :yes

I would be okay with no album this year as well. But I still would be surprised if she didn't release one this year.
A nice pre-anniversary single would be nice. And not just a digital single.:rolleyes:laugh
Again, A Ballads 2 would make me very happy.;)

No we can't:irked I really want an album so bad!!! I know it's not coming soon but I still have hopes.

This might have an opposite effect unfortunately. People might still be disappointed with the new music, and the fact that they had to wait so long for the new album will likely make the disappointment even worse
