"NEXT LEVEL" cover

Hello Guys!
I just want to read your opinon about "NEXT LEVEL" cover.

Personally i like a lot the choosen colours and background, it feels a bit like pop-art.

Anyway i find the cover style too much similar tu RULE/Sparkle one, do you agree? i prefered to see something different.

And what about Ayu's hairstyle? please, let me know!

The cover of the NEXT LEVEL is very refreshing to me IMO.
But Ayu REALLY reminds me of Namie-chan seriously.
Its far better than GUILTY due to its colorfulness.

As of now, Im looking forward to the music and the lyrics itself.

I agree with you. As I said on my other post, she just reminds me of Nakama Yukie in "Kami-sama, mou sukoshi dake"

Now, I care with the music not with the covers...But still beautiful covers count.

when i saw the small pic, i thought WTF?? her hair is bigger than her face, weird

but its fine when i saw the bigger pic. its very colorful, and beside the hair, everything is fine. i can sense this will going to be a dance album

plus, the hair looks like namie's funky town cover

I like the cover, it's like pop art, there are random objects behind but they fit well, it's the first time I like the font of an ayu cover, very colorful not boring hell like Secret and Guilty, look forward to the booklet and disc print!

My opinion boils down to three words. DO NOT WANT. I seriously hope the other covers are better.

I like the large version - the outfit is really colourful but I dunno about those gloves lol

I'm not sure about the title and text either, it doesn't really stand out. I would think the text should be a little more noticable in such a busy image...

its something refreshing from her considering all her past 9 album covers are just...more towards elegance or else..his is so poppish..kylie minogue-esque ^^
I'm glad she;s trying something new although i'm not so much into her hair, i think if the remove the afro wig and just let ayu tucked her hair behind and looks like Dior shots it should be better
BUT
BUT
I bet it'll be sooo eye catching when the big poster comes (esp here in HMV and they posted in front LOL)

I thought that her covers couldn't get any worst after seeing the covers for "Rule / Sparkle".
Well, I was wrong. Way wrong.

What the hell is she wearing?

That's all I have to say. Urgh.

I expected something like this, but it's a bit too cheap looking... come on ayu, first you're doing the diva for 9438348 years and then we get something like this. but I'll get used to it anyway.

it's just SO annoying that her fake hair is incredibly bad photoshopped and you can tell.

I like it. Just like the Rule/Sparkle covers - I just love it when bright vibrant colors clash together and is able to catch my attention. That's why I admire people who is able to pull off wearing hot pink on the train, or bright yellow shoes with lime green pants walking down the streets (e.g. my friend lol)

My only complaint is that her name should be more noticeable... if it was on the black parts just below the NEXT LEVEL text area.. the white would stand out more!
