The last one must be the poster. Well it's a bit "too much". The rest seem awesome.

The last picture is just awful x______x

It's like plastic fantastic.

That picture of her by the boat is smokin'!

As much as these are stunning, her face seems just a little too overly photoshopped in these pictures though =/

Edit~ Actually.... I don't think I like the majority of these pictures...

Triple post.

Triple post =/

Thanks for posting....they're alright, I guess. I never thought there'd be a day when I'd say this about Ayu, but she is trying too hard in these pics to look cute. With the exception of the carousel/convertible ones, the others just scream "Look at me, I am ~*kawaii~*!!" The clothes and scenery for the boat picture is nice but the hairstyle/shoes are stupid. The Marilyn Monroe one is also kinda lame....cute concept but the facial expression is so deer-in-headlights.

The sofa in the ocean one is just "HUH?" inducing. Either be in the ocean or be in a sofa. Mixing the two just doesn't work for me. The wig also looks horrendous. She looks oddly stiff and rigid in the gardening one. It would've looked so much better if she just smiled normally. And I think avex should fire their Photoshopper for going to work on that cover.

Overall, I miss the 2005 style in which Ayu just pulled everything off so flawlessly. She looked sophisticated yet upbeat and fun. I don't know if it's just the art direction but she seems very unlike herself in these calendar pics.

For example, whatever happened to the class/versatility exuding from these?:





Just IMO of course. Ayu can still take great pictures but there's something about this calendar that rubs me the wrong way XD;
