NO! i probably seen this photo somewhere..

If not, it just looks pre-Mirrorcle World-ish

hmm, interesting. have we seen that pic before? it's not confirmed so this should probably be in general. thanks!

Big possibility it could be. thats the deluxe box

omg, that looks beautiful. i hope it's real, lol. :P

That pic does look convincing. Hmmm, it looks like a pic from A Best 2 tho...or from the photoshoot with the cheetah outfits.

btw, this should be in the enquiries or ayu rumor thread.

m i wonder...i wouldnt mind if it was :D

I hope so... it's really cool!

OMG I hope it is the cover! :heart on the side, it has all the singles photos :D

I sort of hope not >.>... I don't really like the pic, maybe I'll like it when I see a bigger version...

Plus, someone else made this comment, it looks very A BEST 2 -White--esque

I've never saw that photoshoot, so who knows ?

honestly I think it looks amazing ! (*-*)
so if it is the real one, I really don't mind ! :D XD

Could have swore I saw an vivi pic with the same dress...

the pic reminds me of photos out of A BEST 2 -white-:

http://photos.loveayumi.e-fan.org/th...s.php?album=75

^ yea that's what I was thinking, but I think this is leopard print

Ok... the boobs look weird.. so does the expression. I DON'T WANT THIS COVER but there's a huge possibility since it does look like a deluxe box plus the side has single covers.

it does look like the real thing

then again it's best to wait for official sources to confirm that's that

i totally agree, but check out the dress, the top part, is not the same on the cover. so it's not just taken from that shoot or anything.

i really hope this is the cover bc from what i can see she looks beautiful & fierce :love

yes i hope so too! it reminds me of kuu's kingdom covers, the color scheme..

hope it is

this reminds me of a photo from the past magazine: http://pic.yupoo.com/shijie0307/6796...c/6kshriku.jpg

Is it just for me, or is it gone o_O

I'm upset, I can't see the picture ; ;

ahhh the link doesnt work :(

this sux...I didn't get to see the picture either.

I can't see the image anymore. =O

it is! i wonder if it was a fake so they removed it?? aww :(

crap!
Did anyone save it?

me too :thud quite bazarre, but I SAVED it :D

^ UPLOAD PLEASE:)

http://i37.tinypic.com/2d9nwk4.jpg feel free to repost on main post

Ohhhh that is really pretty, I hope it is the cover, thanks for re uploading ^^

can't see....
kyaaaaa.i want see.......hiksssss

thanks!!!

the pic looks familiar.

it does to me also but I can't put my finger on it~


so, do you guys think it was fake, as of some great photoshopping skills or do you believe this could very well be what we were all waiting for? do you think the owner posted just a tease of a few minutes and then removed it?!

I'm pretty much convinced this could be it~

http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...izz/049330.jpg

I think we have seen that pose before but not the picture.Plus I think it looks pretty official because the box has all the covers for the singles on the sides.It looks pretty good.Plus the link doesnt work anymore,maybe avex told the site owner to take it of for copyright reasons or something.Then again what do I know right? :thud

I dunno it looks too good for it to be fanmade..but then again Ayu has some really talanted fans (those fanmade ayu pans are amazing)

It looks okay I guess, it could be better though.

is the official site updated yet?! it doesn't seem to work for me. maybe that means they are updating or something :O

...The first press of the CD+DVD comes in a box ^^;;...

There are two options to why it was taken down:

Option 1: It was fake and they caught it quick enough
Option 2: It was real and they weren't supposed to have put it up.

Exacly!!!!

A COMPLET's CD+DVD, First Press, comes in a "Special Anniversary Box"

yea like someone creating their very own kind of A COMPLETE box

It was real and they weren't supposed to have put it up<---this sounds correct lmao

who knows?! :shrug the avex administrator who updates the 'now printing' photos on the official site could possibly link to other sites and give 'sneak previews'

Someone deleted it off of imepita. Was originally from 2ch... wonder why it was removed.

Looks like the real deal. [photo is unlikely to exist elsewhhere..]

Since it did look pretty real, I'd bet they removed it because it wasn't supposed to be leaked yet, and they caught it. Which is really weird, since usually these things aren't caught.

:yes this is what I strickly believe. I think someone was giving out sneak previews for a hot minute

Actually, they are. Thousands of people browse 2ch every day, and I'm pretty sure someone found out and deleted it as soon as they saw it.

However.. I'm unsure how someone could've gotten ahold of it more than a month before its release..

I'm surprised it was complete a month before it's release to be really honest. That's why I'm slightly suspicious of it.

If it was real, maybe it was inside? Maybe it's one of a few designs whoever creates the cases is showing to avex, and the picture got put up, probably unintentionally, from inside?

^that's what I don't understand. if so, that means that the creation of these boxes were already completed before the announcement

It reminds me of a photo shoot... I can't remeber what mag though...

It looks fake but I LOVE the picture on it! (:

Well, whatever happened, this looks really legit and it also looks shot by Kazuyoshi Shimomura. AGAIN. Oi, Ayu needs to stop using this dude.

i never see that pic...i think its real. but i don't know
looks like she use her kouhaku dress / together when fated CDL07-08 dress...
i think its nice

Her hair looks like the hair color and slightly like the style she had during Mirrocle World/the Tour... It doesn't really look like a very Ayu-type picture though.

I like the size of it, if anything, I hope the box is that size.

Yuck, if that's real, I can't believe they decided to stick with the ~ALL SINGLES~ part of the title.

i never thought about the fact that it's printed like....WAY in advance...iunno, i wouldnt mind if it was real or if it was fake...haha. i like it but i wouldnt mnd somthing else :P

That's actually not bad. Looks like a modified version of her GUILTY dress + her MW hair.

it would be strange to wake up tomorrow and find the same cover on the official site after this leak.

If that is the cover then I'm happy!

I'd say to assume it's real until proven otherwise.

Also, Ayu's not really wearing leopard print.. it looks more like a remake of the Together When... Kouhaku dress with the crystal-bra...

I wonder who would take a photo of it with their cellphone though. Hm.. maybe the designer in question? It had to have originated somewhere other than 2ch. Time to look~~

if it's true it's will be WOW! but i think that it's a fake.
PS Is this box will be such big? It looks bigger than MW special box even

Well it looks genuine... but anyway I like the style. Really glamorous.

Thanks for reupping the picture <3 hmmmm we'll know soon enough it's real or not.

The top looks like the dress she wore for a ViVi photoshoot, and the one she wore for the fated performance. It may be official, it looks really nice. I REALLY want to order this! *waits for her paycheck*

most likely that is the size. it has to hold 3 CD and 1 DVD, and possibly the photobook inside also...

That's a nice picture... it looks similar to the A BEST 2 -WHITE- photoshoot but her outfit is different.

Well, this means that we're probably gonna get a really golden and sparkly booklet that'll go along with the discs... though I wonder if it'll be just one for all three discs or one for each disc.

it looks real...and nice.....so nice.....

I hope there's three different booklets, I sort of hope that the discs are in different cases inside the box <3

someone should search the person who posted it on 2ch and go through their posts and see if they are connected in the industry.

that's what I hope too, one for each cd! not one same consecutive photo for all cds

it looks nice! i wouldn't mind if it was the real deal. :)

2ch is mostly anonymous, so there's no way to find someone's posts really..

And whoever did post it initially was like "Is this the jacket?"

Meaning that they found it elsewhere and did not get it from 2ch at first. Although I did find one person's ID that posted it first I think in an "Ayu's makeup" thread...

Never mind. The A COMPLETE thread was the first to see it. Perhaps someone at a random Ayu BBS posted it.

The cover looks so REAL. 0_o And if the box is THAT thick, I would really really want it!

Holy moly, I would not mind that being the cover. It's very pretty! If it's a shop job then kudos to who did it because it's very nice.

Hmmn... I won't say I dun like it.. but it doesn't really attract me at all. But anywayz I need a higher quality version before making a final judgment. I kinda want a cover to be something more than just glamorous... :P

I want three different booklets ! I'm spoiled :eviltongu

I love this picture ))

Well, I think I pretty much speak for everyone in saying that this is a HUGE improvement over these:

(Apologies if you do like these a lot, but.. yeah. Bald Ayu was never something that many people liked, I think. Plus the awkward cut of these two covers made her head look like she was from Mars)

Yeah anything will be better than A BEST 2 covers. Seriously those were not so great.

I agree, it is a step up from the A BEST 2 covers, even though I do like the A BEST 2 covers XP

I hope we get an official leak sometime soon...

^I agree. I like the A BEST 2 covers, but this is a definite improvement. Ayu's long hair~ :smitten I really hope the picture is an official one.

Hope this turns out to be true :yes I really like it!

That's beautiful!!

It photo looks like one that this in the book in A best 2

the A BEST 2 covers weren't that bad to begin with aside from the CD only ones that I didn't like

hopefully the A COMPLETE one will be da bomb

WAW!!!
That was so beautiful! :love:luv2:luv2

wow this is like: guilty cover x mirrorcle world hair x together when dress

I dunno if I like this cover...it looks more like a mag photo shoot...but it IS a lot better than the A BEST 2 covers.

I think that a lot of this photographer's work looks very magazine-esque. [for reference, he's the one who did the ViVi shoot in her old clothes, t2m/A BEST 2/MW's covers and booklets, Cawaii shoot during the t2m era, VOGUE NIPPON, the brand new 2009 calendar etc..]

I think she should use ND CHOW or something instead of this guy for everything.. or a mix of Leslie Kee and ND... Kazuyoshi always seems to make Ayu look really artificial in his photoshoots imo.

His photoshoot portfolio [not all]
His PV works (tbh, none of them are that good..)

Don't be surprised when you see a certain someone alongside Ayu in the photoshoot portfolio..

LOL TH you make me so happy and sad at the same time :D. How do you know that I actually love A BEST 2 covers?? You do read my mind hehe. At the same time I feel like an alien because I belong to one of those few people who love A BEST 2 covers so much... :cry... Anywayz, I dun think I will compare A COMPLETE w/ A BEST 2 covers, because A BEST 2 covers follows the A BEST cover. A COMPLETE doesn't need to follow the pattern so I expect she has more freedom on making the cover. But like Ayumiko said, I feel like this should be a magazine cover.

Again, probly i will love the cover once I see a HQ version. :)

I like it :) But I hope it's just the cover for the box and the CD case covers (hopefully more than one CD case) are all different photos showing how Ayu style has progressed through the years along with her music... I think that would be interesting.

Wow, he did cocoon and Kingdom too o_O Sort of surprising on Kingdom's part, Anna's cocoon covers sort of remind me of A BEST 2 now that I think about it.

oh that is cool~it would be great if that's the cover, but i'm waiting till the offifical new~ but i wish she didn't wear leopard..

It'll probably be a different pose or a completely different photo altogether. I'd say a different pose would be somewhat cheap for such a grand compilation, so.. it's possible that there could be a different photo on the CD only..

Eh, we still don't have exact confirmation if this is real.. but I'm gonna guess that the covers will be revealed this week [a month prior to release]

Mid-2005 and onward of cover reveals compared to actual release dates:
fairyland c/w alterna: July 5th -> August 3rd
HEAVEN: August 23rd -> September 14th
Bold&Delicious / Pride: November 5th -> November 30th
(miss)understood: November 27th -> January 1st / December 27th
Startin' / Born To Be...:February 14th -> March 8th
BLUE BIRD: June 1st -> June 21st
Secret: November 8th -> November 29th
A BEST 2: February 5th -> February 28th
glitter / fated: June 29th -> July 18th
talkin' 2 myself: August 27th -> September 19th
GUILTY: December 6th -> January 1st / December 25th
Mirrorcle World: March 11th / March 12th -> April 8th

It's usually a little less than a month to a month before the release. They're all fairly similar though.. We should expect the covers sometime between August 10th -> August 17th...

HmmmI think I'll buy this, it's just a freaking beauty

he directed XXX LMAO! XD

Oh I really don't care if this is the cover, of course the cover can always be improved on but hey, I am already satisfied =D i also like the gold colour scheme man I wonder if its the real deal or not?

wooow pretty.. i hope that's the cover
