[Official Message] Ayu releases to be postponed

[cool_kickin_dude]

@gogirlanime: thank you so much for that post! I too was saying the same things and was a complete bonehead for saying them(I said them in another forum and caused a lot of trouble over it).

That being said, let's think about this: I don't think Ayu would want ot release them right now. I think she wants to help Japan in any way possible. As true Ayu fans we are, we should support that decision and not be whining about it. Sure, things are beginning to be normal, but let's never forget the people in those damaged areas(some with not even a home, much less a town to call home anymore) who are still suffering the after-effects of it.

Sorry for the long post, but I just thought I like to add in my common sense of it.

[Didz-19]

still can't stop arguing eh~~maybe if Ayu sees this thread, she would definitely cancel the release~~hahahah...

and stop comparing other country with their losses~~it's not the same!

[Minttulatte]

As much as I am impatient about those remix albums, I still don't want them to rush things like releases in a time like this. I can wait for a while longer for Japan to get things under control for real. People should have some patience lol.

[Cyberbird]

They finally make a decision with tour dates, but nothig with release dates at the moment >_<

[MissElin_]

I'm only happy to hear that they postpone the concerts. That already said in the concert thread. For the CD's it's not the same massive use of electricity-problem as for concerts but it only makes sence that they keep on postponing them too. I'm all happy to hear that they concentrate on helping the country instead.
Also, if I may be a bit selfish I would love them to postpone everything til the end of April/beginning of May or even later. I'm still a bit broke.

[Sandy]

Wow. A lot of things floating around this thread. Just want to say the thing everybody knows: happy they postponed.
Actually, that's all I'm feeling. Don't care when the CD's and what not comes out. If it'll be August 21st 2015, then let it. Ok, a bit overreacting, but who cares about the date?!
The date Japan will be over this catastrophe is never. So for those who want Ayu to release something after Japan will be okay... wow, you'll have to wait a loooo~ong time.

Off-topic: I'm happy to see people helping outside of Japan. Here in Helsinki, people gathered round Helsinki Cathedral one night and lighted up candels for Japan and you could give donations. It was sweet. I was there, standing next to a lady, in her thirties or so. She was crying like h*ll so I asked if she'd lost someone. She said something like "We all lost lives. I doesn't matter if we knew them personally or not, they were all part of us." I thought to myself: A World Is One.

^just wanting to share...

I just want to say, that for us here in America (at least for me, because I guess I can only speak for myself), there is no connection between wanting ayu-mi-x 7 and the terrible loss the people of Japan are having to endure.

Yes, I'm selfish, and I want ayu-mi-x 7 SOOOO BADLY!
But that does not mean that my heart does not go out to all of the people affected in Japan. It's a terrible situation and I wish everyone the best in rebuilding their lives.

With that being said, hell yes, I want ayu-mi-x 7 ASAP! Hence all the complaining. I don't believe that it makes me (or anyone else) heartless in the least. It's possible to be caring and selfish at the same time.

I mean, this is an ayumi hamasaki forum and (some of us) are pretty die-hard fans. This isn't a world relief forum.

It's fine, you can want the CD's and so, but you have to understand the delay. There are people right here in this forum who may not take kindly to your "complaining" as you put it and you have to understand why that is. If you don't, then you might be just a tad selfish or heartless or whtvr you wanna call it.


Edit: Your last comment cracked me up ^^ funny stuff

Some people with all due respect seriously need to wake up. There are things outside WAY more important than a bunch of cd's.

Imagine you wake up and realize how it feels like to see you have no food to eat. or fresh water to drink. Realize fish or meat are a luxury. Or deal with the fact your beloved ones are gone and you're totally alone.

But i guess you cannot imagine that. What a shame for the people who cannot understand it.

what's that kesha song? oh yeah, blah blah blah. i stand by my previous post.

It's not that we don't understand it. But in order to FULLY understand it, we would need to be in their shoes. Thank God we aren't.
You may sympathize with the people of the Japan, but there is NO WAY IN HELL that you (or anyone not in Japan) could understand what they are dealing with, unless you have endured something similar.

so please get off the high horse.

edit-- I don't mean for my post to come off as insensitive, and no offense to you or anyone else...I just have strong opinions most of the time.

But the most of time arguing you became rude, there are other ways.

Perhaps if some people had know this before they read your comments, it may have made more sense. I'm a pretty sensitive person so I probably over-reacted while reading your comments as well. I think we can all agree to disagree at this point, knowing we all pretty much feel the same way, we just use different words to say it. ^_^

Happy to have a release date anyhow, gives me more time to save up a little bit.

[ownsarai]

Wow, this thread is stressful...>_>
Yea I don't mind waiting for the remix albums at all. I'll be happy when they do finally get released but I'm not in a huge hurry for them.

Great! It's just made my day!

[Ayus!]

2010!!! lol

[errikkutrancex]

at last !!!! :p hope no other problem meanwhile !

[ayuuk]

Even though I've pre-ordered the ayu-mi-x 7 boxset and the DVDs through TeamAyu shop, I don't mind them postponing the release date. I think Ayu and Avex must have some reasons for postponing, and it is thoughtful that they want most resources to be directed to the most needed area/people.

(On the other note, TA shop only charges your credit card when the items are shipped, right? So that means that I will not be so broke in March?)
