WAVE vol. 24 (A BEST 2 cover offshot)
 

This was a free magazine released in 2007.

To make these scans a bit easier to find, I'm placing them here. Thanks to miskiq for these gems!

this is new magazine issue? (pictures, seem to be from A BEST...)

That shot is a million times better than the actual cover they used. *Sigh*

nope it's from A BEST II era, I guess.

Thanks a lot to miskiq though :heart these shoots looks way better than real covers.

Amazing amazing

This, this, this...

just to add from my previous post, this pics are not from WAVE mag

Thanks for the reply with more photos! These are definitely going to make people happy~

Thanks! Wow, the offshots really look nicer than the actual covers did.

thaaanks

Thanks so much for sharing these!

WoWa! Thatz rare scan magazines! Rare! Rare! Rare!
Thanks! >___<

I really love the smiling shot! I wish she had used it for promo or something....

wooooow thanks for sharing! I love the pic where ayu smiles and the one with her eyes closed..both are so sweet expressions

So they chose covers where she looks like a bug eyed freak over these beautiful offshots where she looks like a high class goddess and actually human.. okay..

Hope they had replaced the White cover, the alternative photo's way more gorgeous! i have no problem with Black cover

I'm wondering... Why this scans suddenly came up now?? No scans for this magazine before?

^ because someone who own the magazine finally decided to scan them?

omg finally a good scan of the cover! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!

AMAZING! Thanks for sharing!

Idk I guess she did that herself.

I wish they would've used the closed eyes one, but I'm glad they didn't pick the other ones.

Ah, Ayu looks great in those photo's. Gorgeous!

Wow those are actually really nice! I especially like the one with her smiling it's so elegant looking :yes.

I think they would've functioned very nicely as the actual covers, looking back. The happier look would have contrasted well with her original A BEST shots.

Thank you! These are lovely simple images.

O! i've never seen the ones with the eyes closed! beautiful simplicity

thanks you for scanning these images, miskiq! :heart

thx ^^

thanks *.*

I found this poster on ebay, you can see more of ayus body.
