Maybe on the music side of things, but more money would probably equal to more promotion

...or hiring 10 more dancers

^ the second choice might be more likely :weep:weep

budget or not, i think she need a new concept/marketing team! and promote the new album/single strategically! she need a lift in her public image, for example i think the tokyo pride was a really successful move!

She should release a compilation called (G)ayu featuring her gayest staples

:spazzed

She could re-record Boys&Girls in two versions: Boys&Boys and Girls&Girls

But for reals I agree that the money doesn't matter when it's the same team. They still won't translate the TA entries, they'll still half-ass promotion etc. I don't really buy the reason that scheduling prevents epic PVs from being filmed.

Ayu's team could do a Connected ver 2 or something without even involving Ayu in the filming process or even get actors to film it in her place. I mean, we know we'll never get a pt 2 from Namie's Dr PV so Avex should just get Ayu to do it lol

Personally Ayu's been on a roll for me since A ONE. Colours is good as a stand alone but I feel the songs after the PQ>Colours eras have a good chance of being her new classics. There are a lot of great songs on the other albums but I feel like the newer era just has more songs that have more longevity for me.

Defend Love was Dr. pt. 2 und the continuation of that was the tour ....

yaaaaas back to A ONE hair!!!

Fuck. Me. Up!!!!

She looks amazing with this style ❤️

Love how she looks with darker hair! :luv2

I actually like those three LOVE again songs more than any of the single tracks, other than Sweet scar.

But I think LOVE again should've been two actual mini albums. Without the interludes and You & Me there could've been 6 tracks on each. They could've even put an interlude on each and a version of You & Me (remix, acoustic, something) to round it up. I feel that the songs don't get their chance to shine being on one album.

And I LOVE her new hairstyle. *_* I didn't like the previous one as much, because it looked too unnatural, but this is pure gold. Or grey-ish brown. ^_-

Where does she have darker hair???

Woops, never mind!

Saw her story insta, I was like "CHEERS!!!!!"

What's going on with Twitter/TA? She posted about a new song?

^ She finished recording a song today, and it's a "girl's power" song. She's going to keep on working hard as she continues recording more tomorrow.

^ Yaaaaas, i love her feminists songs :love

Should I put those in spoilers? Or post smaller sizes from instagram?

I love her hair - it gives me a "fairyland" vibe... so gorgeous!

Yaass!!! My feminist queen :luv2

I absolutely love the hair cut and color!

The dimension in the color is so nice.

I totally get the fairyland vibes too :-)

I hope we'll get some good summery songs and videos to go with it.

Perhaps we'll get ~something~ before a-nation?
