New live DVD/BD 'ARENA TOUR 2012 ~HLS~' March 8, last of five 15th anni. releases - Page 11

I hope she releases something else that actually celebrates her fifteen years as a whole.
That's what was so great about A COMPLETE and the Days/GREEN and Mirrorcle World releases featuring anniversary versions of older songs.
It revisited the past, and celebrated her career through every era.

At the moment it feels forgotten.
Not that I'm complaining; I've loved the LOVE again era, it's been great!

But I'd love to see Ayu recognize her previous works in a medium that is not a concert setlist.

Not too happy to know about this news though.

I hope this DVD release will include some of the songs that is not from the last show. I need "Letter" live.

Have any first-press items been announced yet? I never pre-order DVD's so I don't remember if any have ever been given out with concerts, lol.

I completely agree. My first concert was also AT08, and I'll watch the TV version over and over again because the concert I went to was the one they filmed for the TV version. But the DVD...I've seen once, only so I don't tarnish the memories I have from being at the concert.

I think we will see A Best 3 next and the &DVD/Blu-Ray counterpart will be the 2012-2013 countdown live.

On the subject of this release, I hope the Blu-Ray has a slipcover. None of Ayu's have so far, which is annoying as the Namie ones look lovely.

TeamAyu2004 · #6 25th January 2013, 10:53 PM

Now A Best 3 packaged with self covers... that would be nice.
I'm still thinking we might get 3 types of A Best 3, also something along the lines of a Super A Best (that spans all 15 years)

Chibi-Chan · #7 25th January 2013, 11:39 PM

I'm truly disappointed.

ayuuk · #8 26th January 2013, 05:07 AM

Now that the Blu-ray/DVD of AT 2012 is coming out on 3/8, when are we gonna get its ayupans!? Really look forward to the opening and cat girl ones!!

Since it's her anniversary, and it has been about 6 years since the last A BEST, everybody assumed that A BEST 3 was part of the Anniversary-release pattern.
Since it's not the 5th release, we think that Avex could release A BEST 3 on April 8th, Ayu's 15th Anniversary.

I'm thinking the same thing, April is the exact date of her 15th anniversary and there might be something released. Not expecting A BEST 3 actually I've no expecration at all LOL

I think the DVD for CDL 12/13 isn`t announced til yet (or have I not seen it?). So it could be that.

alternarist · #13 26th January 2013, 11:38 AM

^ but the 5 releases were on nov, dec, jan, feb and march. not april. ayu mentioned that she will released something on 8th april?

marekcarey · #14 26th January 2013, 11:42 AM

Some are just overthinking...

Well, A Best 3 WILL happen, its just a matter of time.
And if I wasnt clear before, I was talking about you and others.
Sorry about the confusion.

Jawdarna · #20 26th January 2013, 12:26 PM

I actually think A BEST 3 is a release you can expect at one time or another as it has predecessors. In my opinion, it's probably more realistic than receiving another single...

If we were talking about something a bit dreamy like Ayu releasing unused tracks and the like, then yeah. But still, it is better to dream and be disappointed, than to never dream at all.

Back to the DVD though, I can't wait to see the cover.
