Seeing Kazuyoshi wear his mask the wrong way just makes me cringe so hard.

I came here to post the same thing LOL Especially after Ayu's team already dealt with a Covid outbreak. Can anyone translate what he says to her in the clip?


Ayu looks AMAZING in these photos/clips! I keep getting Part of me stuck in my head after looking at them haha

I also wonder. I did a Google Translate of her caption and hashtags and it appears that the director was teaching her how to act just by using eyes. don't know how accurate this is.

I think he's just directing how she should move on the scene they were about to shoot

so so happy that rainy day will get a remaster! one of my favourite ballads of hers

and yes—talk about curve balls! I guess she's making space for lesser known ballads like HOPE or PAIN and Life, at the expense of some of her more famous songs.

ALSO: kind of disappointed that there are only three covers?

I hope tomorrow's video brings more "suprises" because last week they were the obvious song choices.

So excited for new PV!!!

I wouldn't get my hopes up. Thinking about playing BINGO with these:

CERTAINLY WILL BE ON (19 !!)

You Were...
BALLAD
Zutto...
Walk
Days
Virgin road
Sunset
Pride
forgiveness
HANABI II
Together When
How beautiful you are
Pray for you
Ohia no Ki
WORDS
Beloved
The GIFT
Walking proud
Curtain call


one or two curveballs from these:

SAKURA
Count down
Return Road
LOVE SONG
SAKURA
untitled
BRILLIANTE
Ivy
Missing
Winter diary
Part of me
Sweet scar
Pray
Angel
Life
GREEN
Last Minute
memorial address
Sweet Season
Mad world
The way I am

So the unbolded ones are what’s left. It’s like Survivor! She has so many, the third reveal is going to be satisfying or devastating many people lol

haha I totally forgot to check MY STORY and (miss) understood yesterday.evening.
I even had rainy day, HOPE or PAIN and HAPPY ENDING in my playlist.

TODAY is a surprise.
Even if I'm not a fan of either TODAY or SAKURA, I'm happy for the ones who like it and get a better quality of those two.


And I really like the double-ayu fancover on the page before. i already said the colors are pretty in line with A BALLADS, but someone else pointed out the original A BALLADS and RAINBOW were already about coming to terms with herself, so she may did not want to reuse it (although i'd have like a twist on it to keep the concept - maybe a mirror?)

gosh I forgot about Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~ completely. this song gives me such a strong nauseated reaction so I always skip it.

it also seems to be one of her most popular ballads so I'm almost 100% sure it will make it in the album.

Justice has been served for Life.

Hope the DVD will include that epic 2011 Music Station performance.

I forgot life existed, that was a move.

Interestingly I never thought of Today as a ballad.

Mixed feelings about track list but overall I like it. Thanks god she didn’t forget about Ballad. The covers are really mediocre. I like the colors but everything else is just so uninspiring. It looks like she took some selfies with a Snapchat filter or something lol But we don’t have covers for the limited editions yet, could that mean we could get something different...? And what about the PV she has been teasing all week long? Lol
