(Who still have this camera? lol)

I bought the damn camera I don't know why they promoted like this, the camera sucks at taking photos in movement

we can tell which the camera model you prefer by looking at your profile picture.
That CM is iconic... funny. Shaking ayu for showing the camera function.

I also bought Lumix because of Ayu, my Sony was getting old (had it for 7 years) but I really liked the pictures, in comparison Lumix was horribly disappointing. My Sony (no idea what model, got it in 2001) has small resolution but pics were almost always sharp, Lumix pics were like stained by water, no sharp edges and what it advertised the most: the pics in motion, was totally not working. I had it for a year or so and decided to buy a Canon 30d (used one), never came back to digital cameras. After that I also had Canon 70d but now I only use it when I go to Japan, otherwise my phone is sufficient. I kinda felt bad because friends knew I got it because of Ayu and they were laughing at me for buying such a crappy camera.

I don't care about the title or anything, I just want the release date!

I bought the LUMIX camera with ayu & racing concept CM.
Was that her 1st CM for lumix?

I forgot how s the picture quality.
but the best point and shoot camera i had ever used was my olympus.

I believe the first LUMIX CM was actually not with a song of hers at all, but by a band that one of her composers (or someone in her song development team) was a part of—which I’ve completely forgotten the name of lol. But I still remember the little melody it had.

Edit: Band was called Breath.

But the racing concept one was definitely one of the first—and I loved it. The colors were really well done.

Or ayu will face some production or timing difficulties and release this album on 1st January)

From the TA blog 24th Sep

I have just finished writing my third song. (Just because I made it doesn't mean it will see the light of day.)
After the Summer Party ended, I was completely switched, and instead of being on the front of the stage, I'm going super inward, so it's a darker day than usual.
But I think that darkness is me, so I spin words without looking away.
And once again, I feel that what happened in my childhood will affect my life for a long time, and it makes me think about my daily actions.

I wonder if Ayu finished writing Mask that day

highly possible. they love drama production.

Ayu getting reflective about her childhood wounds, sounds like it will be an emotional and maybe healing writing process for her. Looking forward to hearing the end result, especially since I'm in a similar mind frame as her.

I really miss ayu era with
- HAL
- DAI
- Kazuhito Kikuchi
- CREA (ayu herself)
- tasuku
- CMJK
- BOUNCEBACK

Ayu is really excited about her new song this morning.. two TA posts in a row.

[Aderianu]

She said that listening of mixed song made her emotional. Also ayu going to shoot PV soon, and preparation for that took 6 months

6 months? Wow. She's really anticipating herself for that album.
