コトノハ = Kotonoha, not Kotnoha...

But, yeah, I can't wait for the new song!!! Could be a single, because the last time was June 2014? That's almost three years!

(And, that single, Nijiiro, was also used for an NHK drama!)

Sorry for double-posting, but for those who are impatient to get their copies of the 10th Anniversary SUPER BEST TOUR live DVD/Blu-ray that is going to release this week:

I believe 2016 ver. (from the 10th Anniversary SUPER BEST TOUR live DVD/Blu-ray)


(Hopefully my copy of this, as well as the Blu-ray re-release of her first live tour "First Message" [from way back in 2006!], will come by next Saturday, as it was been for my Rina Katahira and Leo Ieiri delivery last week! I don't want a repeat two years back when my copy of the 3-STAR RAW live Blu-ray took longer to deliver than what I expected!)

Finally , 14th single Kotonoha (コトノハ) will be released on 10th May

Kotonoha will be used to promote NHK drama 10's ツバキ文具店～鎌倉代書屋物語～ that will start airing on 14th April

ayaka looks mature in the covers & promo picture . At least she doesn't look awkward (like what happened with poor Rainbow Road)

And Kotonoha sounds good

And for her to do a new & long acoustic tour , it's great

Kotonoha PV short version



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9H5WfGLm-kc

I like the concept of the PV , it's nice but wish that ayaka would stop wearing cardigans over her outfits which seems to be a recurring theme for quite sometime now :no

sounds like a lot of her other recent midtempo/ballads...

i like it:love

Kotonoha (the A-side only) will be released digitally online on 2nd May
