hm..it's alright. :\

It's not that she's losing her creativity. That's just ayu's way. She's always been big on friendship, and giving her friends chances to maybe do things they've always wanted to try. Letting Peco (a choreographer) become backup singer was also the same thing. Though I respect her for it, I think ayu needs to let the professionals do their jobs sometimes as well. :p

To be honest.... If professionals were responsible for last years logo... I'd rather have the friends LOL.

Also, I think the whole theme with the album covers and this logo is simplicity. Nothing is really over done or over dramatic and I honestly prefer it that way. Besides, this CLD doesn't really have a theme so I didn't expect a spectacular logo anyway.

Since Minazou did it, maybe he painted it and then had a graphic designer retrace it. I'm sure it looked better painted..

I've nothing against the album covers, they're really good. But this logo just seems unfitting to me. Kiddish is a good word. I'm not saying it's not a good logo, it just doesn't fit the glam diva and Jpop queen that ayu is. Looks more like a logo for more childish groups like Morning Musume. I miss the elegant logos like the MS key, and the 10th anniv heart and crown. Now those just proclaim "ayu, the queen" which is the right vibe, I feel. :)

I like it. I mean, I really don't expect some crazy logo because there's a limit to what you can do with the A imo.

Yeah but it's possible that may she just didn't want to portray that this time. Ayu changes like the wind next year we might get some elaborate logo or one that doesn't seem to make sense lol. Just rest assure that it'll be different next time around.

Oh if her nail designer designed it, then it makes much more sense~
No wonder it looks like those nail sticker designs you buy in convenience stores~

i think the logo is nice...what do you want?

i believe she is training like crazy now for CDL

Who is minazo?

BUTTERFLY!!!

so CUUUTTTEEE!!! and it's pink!!!!!

I love it!!!!

hope the their t-shirts will have some 3D butterfly sticking out?? wahahaha XD

seriously.. i don't think its kiddish. :)

it looks sweet.. actually butterfly is a very versatile insect for girls or women, it depends on how they match it with... i trust ayu and her team! they will make it glam ;)

com'on!! people!! Trust Ayu and her team!!!! :yes

True. I woke up this morning, took another good look, and it's not as bad as it looked last night lol!! :D But I still like last year's kind of logos more~

I still like it. I think it's sweet.
For me, butterflies have been all around at any age so I don't find them superduper childish. Also this logo could have turned up muuuuch worse. I think it got some edge with those black lines and I thank god for them too. :P

I like this logo a lot lot more than the Future Classics one, that was... interesting.

The covers and stuff are all nice and light, avoiding the heavier feeling rock stuff of RnRC that started with GUILTY - and while NL was colourful, it didn't feel....laid back?

I'm just liking the calmer feel of this release so much more, and this logo fits with that. ♥

IMO this logo is not childish or anything, it's cute but not childish.

I'd like it better with if the wings have some sparkles (not a lot but enough to let the wings truly stand out & more glam)

It's cute, but NEXT LEVEL is still my absolute favorite. And then MY STORY.

I LOVE IT!!!

Ahahaha I really hate that antenna thingy, kinda like cockroach antenna...ughh it's give me a chill~

Then again, that butterfly design kinda lame. CLAMP design's much, much better than that, or watch Mariah Carey butterfly design. Although I guess they deserve some credits, it's really creative.
