wow...congrats...how it's feel becoming Team Ayu?!?!
still hoping that someday, that Ayu will open the Team Ayu for international fans...i know that now we can do that too, but i looked the way to become one, and it looks complicated X_X so maybe there will be easier way in the future...when it's really official that international fans can be a part of Team Ayu

So crossroad is obviously not going to have the extra long sleeve that Mirrorcle World and D/G had, so I guess it'll be in a digipack after all? Or was that tidbit axed?

Well she did collab with Toho for Last Angel...just that they weren't as popular back then.

I thought the special packaging was for only for "L"? And the covers for that one arent out yet....

On CDJ, it says "special packaging" on "L" single, but not "crossroad".

Of course it does...? I mean when all of the versions of Days/GREEN were released we saw clearly it was in an extra long sleeve by the dimensions of the cover. Unless the covers we have now are cropped...

OK I see, I went on CDJapan too and it seems that only L is getting them based on the item description, so I guess so. Idk why I thought crossroad was getting a special packaging too.

I read in several fanaccounts that Toho fans still cheer Kuu on Especially when they heard LAST ANGEL in her medley at a-nation
Let's hope they will cheer for Ayu too next a-nation But I've seen Toho fans cheer for her already in the fancams of this a-nation (the towel last year and the uchiwa this year )

I think... CD-A Cover is the best one. And the CD-DVD-Version is worse.

I guess it's not for crossroad anyway, but regardless, when D/G and Mirrorcle World were posted on ayu's official site, before the covers were released, it just showed "now printing" in a rectangular shape, so we knew even before the covers were released.

so I think even for L there won't be a packaging similar to those singles...hopefully it's something cool though

I just hope its something that holds everything in place well, but doesn't take forever to open up to get at the disks.

I use CDs at home, and then ipod while I'm out. Sometimes i don't even bring music with me... especially like if i'm just going up the street to buy a couple groceries or something.

Also, i cant stand plastic wrap. I have to rip it off everything the second the item's paid for.

^That's crazy! But the whole thing is very clever. I think now we can rest assured that both singles will get #1.

The graphic was already posted here But Allkpop's title is a bit over the top They like to exagerate in their titles. The good thing is that allkpop is a website which is followed by Kpop fans around the world and now more people will know about it

Wow, that is so interesting! I really didn't think it would have this much of an effect on sales

The 2nd CD-only cover looks a whole lot better now larger. She still has that glazed look but still. I can't believe people are comparing these to Sunrise/Sunset or even saying those were better.
