PLAYBUTTON cover

Oooh I like many of them. LOVEappears, Duty, RAINBOW, MA and Secret are really nice.

Those look so cute. I want them!

Those are really cute & cool :luv2 Didn't expect them to be this cute lol

I looove the fact each PLAYBUTTON has a new symbol in relation to the album.
FIVE's one looks pretty cool, I also love the ones for Memorial address, Secret, NEXT LEVEL, RnRC...
They all fit the album so well. :laugh

By the way, what's the signification of the "0630" for Memorial address ?
I know we can also see it in the photobook but I never really knew where it came from.

It's been speculated that her father died on June 30th, IIRC, hence the connection to Memorial address. It's never been confirmed, obviously.

I'm loving the designs for the buttons! Still not enough to convince me to buy them, though.

They are very adorable!! I love FIVE and MY STORY!!

So far I only ordered Party Queen's PLAYBUTTON, which is still "now printing." Aww so curious!!

why is Party Queen's wan still printing hmmm...they might but 13TH ALBUM on it hahaha!

and i really love the simplistic and symbolic image for each album!! very very cool. THIS has thought put into a design LOL

Omg I want NEXT LEVEL lol.

they looks too cute! :luv2 they're better than I thought.
I know they're quite useless, but I'm tempted to get one of them now :laugh.

They look so cute! Now I just have to figure out where to order them from...

they're so cute!!I want them!!!!

Please update on how to get them hahaha
and i love the A BEST one. It even has the classic tear on it :) what's LOVEppearss design though

is this limitted edition?? i dont really have money right now T_T

a bit bigger?

YesAsia have them. :)

Wow...now I'm actually tempted to buy one!!!

I'm kinda surprised that they didn't use the actual covers. This idea is kinda cute, but I'm still not getting any.

I love design =) very cool

I think it's the unicorn tattoo with inverted colours.

EDIT: I read "Secret" xDD LOVEppears seems to be one of the butterflies on her nails.

It's Ayu's hand with the butterfly nail from the booklet. ^^

No, it's a picture from the album's booklet (they just slightly altered the colors) ;

EDIT : Oops didn't see your post OyTony haha

anyone can link me to a thread to buy from playnation..its 20 bucks cheapr on playnation LOL..
oh and thanks for the LOVEppears info! hahaha..totally couldnt catch it.

anyone know the numbers for the Memorial Address album??

There you go.

I think it's 30th June =) who knows

Really? Which site? :P

i thought about that, but I just can't think of any good reason for it... lol
Some say that her dad died that day, but I was under the impression that her father left her when she was young and she never "looked back" per say.

So that doesn't make sense.

Wow, they're so cute!

:D

EDIT: OMG I MEANT PLAYASIA..SO SORRY!! >.<

They all look really artsy and cute! I can't pick a fave, although I like NL, ASFxx, Duty, FIVE and LS the most, they're all awesome!

And how does referral save you 20 bucks?? :cool

It seens like the whole EP is a Memorial Address for someone who left her, and died without never getting in touch again... So, her father is the most likelly person.

They're so cute... I thought about buying A Best 2 -White- but they are so overpriced. :irked I'll wait and see if the price goes down...

Ayu actually mentioned in an interview that the song Memorial address is important in the same way as 'teddy bear' to her, so I think that kind of confirms the father connection to the song.

I thought Memorial address was about her grandmother?

EDIT:
Wait, no.. i take that back never mind.. i was thinking of a different song.

I didn't want any... but now I'm really tempted to get one. :grumpy

^ I'm the opposite. I wanted a few, but since they don't have the actual album covers on them, I no longer want any.

^ Haha, yeah the exact contrary!
But I don't know which on I'll choose. If I had to choose for the content I would get Duty/I am.../M(u) or Love songs...

But those buttons aren't the best imo.

A Song for XX, Ma and NEXT LEVEL look really good.

God am I seriously contemplating getting one of these? The power of Ayu.

I don't like the A BEST 2 buttons but the rest are real neat.

wow they are really nice

I wonder why 0630 for Memorial address.

I'd love to get A Song for XX, Duty and A BEST :luv2

some of the badge designs are really really cute and arty. my fav is definitely MY STORY. will be getting that and SECRET :) can't wait to get my hands on these!

Oh my god, they're so cute! lol
I think I'd go for Secret.

Oh NEXT LEVEL ♥

*******, I'm now thinking about buying one... xD

Omg they're so cute! At least they took the time to design it <3

I love how people want these now.

^LOL yeah~~~

They're so cute! I really want to buy them, but I can't >.<

They look like cute little CD albums! :heart

i think die hard fans will buy all of it...
average fans will buy 2 or 3...
fans will buy at least one...

i think this release could be huge...i wonder if the sales will be count to album sales or not...

average fans will be broke already so won't be able to buy any for now xD

Unlikely. The format is just too 'special' to count as an album sale. It'll be interesting if they do count them towards her Oricon total though...

but could buy one in the future...

like me...i'm really thinking to buy one or two..because i just can't resist it...

This xD

i think the one for Party Queen will be a pair of lips.

^like on glasses

Can't decided which one to get, but I'm only gonna get one cause of the price! Maybe MY STORY?

I pre-ordered I am... when the links first came up, but I think of maybe getting LS too, the heart on the button is so cute.
Maybe I also will buy one or two in japan, are they sold in normal CD Stores there?

No A BALLADS? T___T Why?

omg true that! I just noticed D:

I'm a massive fan but I'm already broke ordering 'just' the CD+DVD edition of Party Queen! Big fan doesn't equal big money :laugh

oh ya i just released that there is no A BALLADS. that it soo sad. else will highly get that as well..

Damn yes, I never noticed that too.
A Ballads playbutton whould be cool, it could feature the little teddy bear from the Booklet^^

definitely getting rainbow
it looks pretty

so cute
i like it

Oh yeah now you guys mention it, how come there is no A BALLADS? :P

That is kind of a weird omission since they have A BEST 2 on there as well as A BEST. Maybe they didn't want to include it since it's more of a 'remix' album than it is a compilation album?

I would be tempted by one or two of these if the prices weren't so extortionate. I'm already spending too much money on music at the moment with most of my favourite artists releasing new albums/singles within a month of each other.

I'll stick with my iPod, thank you. :)

And no A COMPLETE -ALL SINGLES- XD.
I think they only add her official BEST albums

You would need 3 buttons for A COMPLETE, hahahaha~

that would be 50 songs, they wouldnt do that when how many songs the rest would hold and also how much this one would clash with the album buttons but a bargin buy if it was in except no guitar solo in M :(

I hope they're available to purchase in Japan, I want to buy one or two when I'm there in December. :yes

The NL one is just adorable. Loving the Duty one too though it makes me think of KISS, the band xD

^ awesome *_*

i wonder what is the design for Party Queen

I think it'll probably either have lips or a shoe.

I wonder when we're going to get it.

UGH they look so cute....I WANT THEM ALLLL

CUTE OVERLOAD!!!

I think the boxes are made of the same plastic as the transparent slipcases of Ayu's Arena Tours DVDs (usually) : it shines a little, and looks glossy :P

Maybe I should post it here as well. My friend who went to the TA Limited Preview took a pic of the Party Queen PLAYBUTTON! :D

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/2937/...20311at105.png

Thank you. That button looks cool, I might get it when i'm in Japan, if I like the album songs enough

i just placed my order for 2 of these adorable little things: NL and RNRC!

totally overcame with joy once i clicked on the 'pay' button.

maybe if i like the Party Queen album after listening to it, i might get that playbutton in the future...

i expected to see lips )

Same here!

I wonder how they arrived on that final design since there's no real hint at the skyline other than on the TeamAyu background.

well, but the leopard print is a given, right?

there should be some special meaning to it...

That design is actually same as that of the Special Limited Box Set (Blu-ray ver.)

Ah, I see that they used the skyline in the box designs as well. I guess the booklet will probably explain it a lot better, haha.

I wanna know the dimensions of the PLAYBUTTON.

According to Playbutton.co's Specs-page, the buttons are either 4.8 or 4.0 cms (~1.88 or 1.57 inches) in diameter (not sure which diameter is the one Ayu's albums have). If that's what you were asking for. :)

Now glasses looks weird. maybe they came from previous version of design. with different font and lips

They all look so pretty! Omg I want them!

The buttom for party queen is amazing too ♥

REALLY debating buying some (or all), but I'll never use them...but I collect everything ayu releases. Kinda pissed off at Avex for this. LOL and I think they should be cheaper, especially the older albums.

I am literally debating buying some or all of them as well!! Why are they so pricey!! :no

I wouldn't mind owning them but knowing me, I just won't take care of it and will probably end up damaging it . Heck I already leave the cds out of the case lying around on shelves lol

Why Party Queen PLAYBUTTON is not on YesAsia? :no

^
It's sold out.
