It's a nice concept, they could do some mirror / reflective work with the numbers 15 / 51. But that concept is almost to extravagant for Ayu's career now-a-days, lol.

^ hope so~ honestly people keep saying they want her to take a break and recharge her creative batteries, but i don't think that's ayu's game. it seems more like she works through her "low" points until she reaches something solid because she wants to.

I know she can't constantly make everything perfect, but I at least wish her Memorial address-Secret PV days would come back. She shot some of her best PVs back then.

She's stuck in a rut PV wise IMO. She needs to work with completely new directors, maybe some foreign ones idk.

Her PV's were not that grand to begin with... but I will say Memorial address and Secret PV's where more interesting then most of them.
I think Memorial address had the best however. I do miss those days...
I love I am... but it had some flaws... Memorial address on a whole... for me was ALMOST perfect.

this put in my mind "Mirrorcle World ~again~" xD i think it would be nice

BTW if they use reflective/mirror it would be 51|12 or 15|21 (with 52 you could draw a heart in the middle xD)

Well in the music business... 10 years is a long time...
heck, 5 years is long (and ayumi did this with 30 singles)... its normal.

25 years should be a HUGE celebration however.

i actually think she should have waited wth the announcment for LOVE again in terms of, it's kinda like too much time ahaid to wait and everything has been already discussed left and right. The fandom just dries out lol

Now I want to have a discussion titled, "how lame could the fifth release be?"

I was just imagining all the disappointing things that could come out of the final release. XD Like a poster or something.

I really want to buy LOVE again, though. It'd be nice to finally add to my Ayumi collection after such a long time. O.o

I disagree. Ever since she debuted her PVs had that something, even the early ones that made me want to see them over and over again. I guess she pretty much peaked with stuff like STEP you, is this LOVE?, alterna, fairyland, JEWEL, 1LOVE, Because of you, RAINBOW etc. but even after the golden era, GUILTY had a couple of awesome PVs, NEXT LEVEL pretty much only had GREEN that was even remotely interesting. Rock'n'Roll Circus put her back on track with Microphone, Sexy little things, Don't look back and You were. MOON and Sweet Season were nice, Virgin Road = simply epic.

And then came the boring love~breakup PVs featuring people she is in a relationship with. Sure there were a few gems after that like do it again, progress, Song 4 u and lately Sweet Scar, but the rest ranged from uninspired /boring to just plain terrible...

its a matter of tastes really.
I find most of her PV's utterly boring.

She has something like 100+ (?) and about 1/3 of them are interesting... the rest... blah, I could do with out.

^^I wouldn't be so sure about do it again being a gem in her PV filmography, it took me a good moment to recal what it was about.... But it's probably just me, tho really it was nothing going on it it lol
Her Pvs aren't bad, they're good eyecandy. They all seem to have potential.
Tho I think the only PV I really really fell in love with since RnR is sweet scar .
