I think I'm quite ... disappointed. Actually, I have already thought that it would turn out to be something like this.

Seriously, how could they make the whole thing look so fake? Ayu' body looks good, but the picture as a whole is a total fail. Her skin is overphotoshoped. Even the background is overphotoshoped. What is the point of shooting in Bali anyway? The cover doesn't show any scenery even a bit, showing Ayu, bushes and water?

I don't complain just for the sake of complaining though, I just don't like the cover that much. I really can't get use to this style of Kasuyoshi the photographer. What surprise me the most is that Ayu, continuously, approves to use his works.

According to the small pictures we have I can't see so much trouble with the bakgrond. I think the colours looks so pretty. They blend in very well with each other!
And yes maybe they could have done less photoshoping on her but lol, Ayu is always hard photoshoped these days so... Let's complain on everything else too!! Nah I love that summery calm feeling these covers give, I love her outfit and I love the colours used!

No my conclusion that from these small covers, I LOVE THEM! They maybe I will be proved wrong when the bigger one comes, or even more in love. ^^ I'll wait and see.
I love them. I really love them.

That's true LOL. But she's a singer before a model now. Plus, I think they just tell Ayu too look sexy, she doesn't know how to that's why she acts like that in front of the camera imo.

So true, but it's going to be the same reactions from people for whatever Ayu does, had done, and will ever do. (including songs, pvs, covers, books, magz)

Thats why I keep coming back to check this thread.

To keep the laughter going, the first 2ch comment about it that I've been able to find:

"新曲のジャケ写きもすぎwww
また劣化したねwww
ブスブスブスブス"

"The new cover photo is way disgusting. lollol
It just keeps getting worse. lol
uglyuglyuglyugly"

I imagine this is the first of many such comments about to pour in.

Actually, the offshot of Mirrorcle World and talkin' 2 myself were rather quite good [probably among the final few shots she probably wanted]... so.. I kind of wonder if there were one or two better shots?

Maybe we'll see in the booklet, haha.

The outcome of these covers are really out of my expectation
I feel that this kind of low quality background cover doesn't fits Ayu's status at all LOL!!

True, but I feel like he 'guides' her to those expressions. Before when ND CHOW and Leslie were mainly the ones doing her covers/magazines etc... it just seemed like she was more relaxed. And now with Kazuyoshi***** it's like... this explosion of awkward facial expressions.

Shimo: GIVE ME SEX!
Ayu: ....-pout-

It's sad that when you look at 2ch, you can't really tell what's a fan-reaction and what's a troll-reaction. -sigh-

I know some threads are labeled "(FAN)" but.. blah. So many awkward photos and random pr0n ASCII in my years of looking over there, haha. What's mixi saying?

hm, disappointed in the covers. i like her hair, but there's no aspect of fun in these. or even sadness--it's just...no feeling. i mean it's a pretty setting, it's just not exciting. it's just like "stand here---ok finished! now go back to swimming~~~"

maybe bigger versions will be better.....but iunno.
not her best, that's for sure

To be honest though, Kazuyoshi has never even attempted to make covers that make you 'feel' anything. They're all very much: "Stand here and look pretty. You're done now." which is lame imo.

Where are the days of & and H where she SMILED? WHERE ARE YOU TORU FURUKAWA[?] and Shin Watanabe!?

I wonder if she gets a big backlash from her TeamAyu fans if she'll...apologize? Its probably too late to change them but I wonder what she'll do...
Seriously the only covers that I really, really don't like. Like I legitemetly cannot believe they are real.

...At least the hair is nice! And the costume would be fine too if it was in better context. Like infront of a, i don't know beach? As opposed to a green screen.

Not that she has to, no. but seriously thinking, if a majorityof her Team Ayu fans posted messages to her saying they were dissapointed would she address it in any kind of way?
