But it would be kind of strange to have a making of of an animated pv...

Oh PLEASeeee not an animated PV for such an epic song >.<

Maybe looks like Koda kumi Real emotion MV


i think progress will have a collaboration between Ayu and the aniimation from the game for the MV

[SunshineSlayer]

Promotion for this album so far seems really lacking. It comes out pretty soon and usually by now at least one of the PVs would have aired I think.

[LastAngel]

Still hoping for some performances.
Mainly at Music Station

[Yagami Raito]

Here in Japan only TA members know about this new mini album （+maybe TOE players ? ）
I'm not expecting great sales... lol

[SunshineSlayer]

^ Yeah, I agree. So far here in Japan I haven't heard so much as a peep about it. Unless they do like a huge blitz of promotion the week of release, I'm not expecting much.

[roanmy]

How was the promotion for Ayu's latest releases in comparison?

If my memory serves me well during the last few years we would rarely get PVs earlier than 2 weeks prior to the release and sometimes even later. So this isn't anything unusual. And when it comes to promo I doubt they will do much more than they've done for the previous few releases.

Yesterday Ayu wrote on twitter it's time now to work for the promotion.
Anyway, she doesn't seem to be so much into promotion in the last years... I think actually she doesn't even care of sales, she's just happy with her fans buying her release ^^

But fans want to see performances too!

[njanjayrp]

^ I guess that's what the tours are for and lucky for us at least she has plenty of concerts.

[Yukitora]

^not lucky enough to get them ustreamed

[Tony G]

Seems the trend of Ayu not promoting during concerts is continuing (NEXT LEVEL anyone?). Even though a-nation is only once a week.

And her PVs have come out later and later in the past couple of years, still 2 and a half weeks until release, I wouldn't expect a PV until maybe late next week or even the week after. And it will be one of those stupid short versions which don't do her any favours in terms of promotion.

She needs to release those 5 PVs and bombard music TV shows - the Japanese seem to love maxi-single/mini-album releases where each song has a video, its a great selling point that has worked for a lot of artists in the past.
