I was talking about me and all the people here who regret buying the mini albums. That's who I'm talking about. Because now a lot people regret what they did. If you don't regret it that's your problem that means i'm not talking to you.

I bought the 2 minis (taking again tomorrow from the post office) and I'm not dissapointed one bit for some reasons, each are, being able to have all the PVs on a blu-ray, not to mention that the songs are superb (especially on again), and having the instrumentals on the "minis". The only thing you can blame is that they called LOVE and again mini albums as they are more singles that promote an original album, and LOVE again is a normal original album, not overpriced like the minis and has an original album contect as it had its "singles" to promote it.

If at all LOVE and again were trolling, though they had good music.

There are more important things imo to regret doing.

The overreaction is about expected for what this release is but some things are just... wow. It's like people were waiting for this to happen so they could flame away.

It's been a long time since I read a thread so full of negative emotions on AHS. Just amazed at some posters here.

Maybe if you bought LOVE and again, just think of this new album as another mini album, and it won't hurt that much.

Yeah lol.

I posted my "worst case scenario" tracklist and it was the same (just with 4 interludes and now it seems there will be only 2/3) and it's not like no one knew it's going to happen ages ago.

This or just put for sale your LOVE and again copies if you regret buying them that much

And please, don't write mean tweets or she could cancel her account like Max.

if you don't like our reaction, don't respond. we have every right to feel how we feel. mind yours.

and I posted all my tweets here, none of which were mean in the slightest

[kagami]

I wasn't expecting this...

I confess myself bemused.

you are so right.

Gorgeous covers (and thank goodness there are no fish lips in sight)

yayyyyyyyyy people rarely stick up for me on this forum because I'm such a ***** LOL but thank you

[tasking]

I'm actually starting to think one of her staff besides Timmy are among us at AHS. They probably saw fans going "imagine how people would be if she did this" and presented the idea to Ayu, misinterpreting it as a good one. How many people said "watch her do this"? Even about the title too.

Either that, or she's just become that predictable.

Love the covers though.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

so I guess people on this forum need to stop saying stupid ****. I see it every day lol

[Larisa-chan]

Wow, I can't believe she actually did it.

Glad that I didn't buy the mini-albums... I feel so bad for the fans who spent so much money on them thinking that we wouldn't see these songs on a full-length album.

Positive things are that the covers are gorgeous (though I can barely see the text on the CD only version cover) and that the song titles aren't atrocious (though bye-bye darling is weird).

I'm not sure how I feel about this album... other than Wake Me Up and snow kiss, the rest of the songs have been "meh" to me. I feel like this will be a very bland album for me, but who knows.

Interested in seeing how the sales will be for this album, too.

Me, too. Now if Ayu would make LOVE again a double CD with Party Queen I might catch up with her releases, since FIVE was the last album I've bought. I almost feel bad, because I'm so satisfied with it, I can have all the songs and everybody is having a fit.

I don't think I'm the only one who didn't buy these so called "Minis" because they felt like a rip off. So everyone who is predicting that Ayu will sell badly with these, I think they might be wrong.

• ONE NEW PV for the most boring song from latest realeses. She could choose a song we don't know - much more promo. AND NOT A SAPPY LOVE BALLAD. Or even Ivy, Ivy is amazing compared to Melody .___.
• The covers are ok for me, but I think they are leftovers from LOVE session. And they are too similar to Love songs... Love love love love love.
• all the titles sound like a "puking love" crush girl drama songs. I'm so in love. Yeah. You are. Jesus.
• And the titles just sound stupid, glasses? wth SAKURA? like EVERY JAPANESE RECORD SAKURA TITLED TRACK. -_- Bye bye darling? WHY. only Gloria sound fine but for 90% is a interlude or a sappy ballad (it's between untitled for her & Ivy)
• I can't believe this is really hapenning. I hope that we will have 3 interludes (not 4) I'm glad for continuation for untitled ~for her~. Even if the typo is diffrent.
• LOVE again title ~_____________~

THIS!

LOVE + AGAIN = 7 songs for 4830 Yens (CD+DVD)


So stop this drama ...

Is that true lol? Well then....

Anyway, still excited for this.

I can't handle the mental breakdowns going on over these releases. You all act like this is any different than if she had released two singles prior to an album. If people are getting so hurt over something that IS NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL, then you really need to check your priorities. The music industry is a BUSINESS and she has absolutely no obligation to release anything AT ALL to anybody. She could retire and sit pretty on all the money she's made but the fact of the matter is she still releases music, mind you music that a lot of people seem to be enjoying lately, and in the end that's what matters the most. And let's not act brand new when a lot of the people on jpop forums don't even buy albums to begin with, I'm well aware a good portion of people do but a lot just download the HQ rip whenever it gets out somewhere.

At the end of the day, she is a SINGER releasing MUSIC, and you all act like with this she's commiting crimes against humanity. Get a grip people.

The difference is that people expected those songs to be on Love songs because they were singles. LOVE and again are not - they should be, but they aren't. That's why it's winding people up so much.

While I can see your side on this -- I'm technically unemployed: I work hard for no pay in order to gain industry connections and recommendations. My next "job" involves me going abroad to work on a film and my payment comes not in the form of money but in travel/food/accommodation -- I also disagree. I'm not at all angry about this happening - and, for the record, I'm not an avid Ayu collector: I don't buy her singles. So in that sense I was initially wondering what the heck her team thought when they marketed it that way. But maybe it's because I made the economical decision to buy the Taiwan press of LOVE and again that I could get over that in less than five minutes and not be annoyed - I'd probably be p~ed if I payed the JP prices. When I saw it all I thought is that I should have waited. But I can't change that now so oh well. There is no point in regretting things that have already happened.

Oh, a voice of reason. You better leave soon, before the mob lynches you.
