ayumi hamasaki ARENA TOUR 2015 The FINAL DVD/BD release

[Delirium-Zer0]

Others have touched on the cover art already, but yeah... The fact that it's a collage isn't the problem. it's LITERALLY everything else, haha. It's a poorly done collage, for one thing - nearly every collage she's had has been better than this one. The font is unreadable and has that outdated embossing effect on it.

The thing that's probably most infuriating is that the tour is SO BEAUTIFUL, and the cover makes it look cheap & tacky. Because it tries to emphasize the coolness of EVERY performance, you don't notice the coolness of any of them. It's the DVD cover equivalent of a used car ad with starbursts on every single car, and every price is the same HUGE size, cuz they're trying to get you to look at all of it. There's no hierarchy.

...Actually no, the thing that's MOST irritating is that the poster artwork used on the tour merchandise is so freaking great, so amazing, and could have been used here with just a few minor layout changes and it woulda looked fabulous.
