I agree that the pose is a bit awkward! But the style is good

STill a cover could never affect which version I'd buy

Hm... well I like them, it's not that standard '"omgz!! AMAZING!!"
which I know some people would probably prefer I'd love that instead (ie, WE MAN, Vivi Jan 06 etc) which I LOVE [OMG D:!!] also but I think this is good too, I like it coz it's not so THAT type of amazing,

The only thing i find a bit more awkward about is how ayu's face looks lol kind of makes me think of a no fake tad ganguro XD~ oh and ESPECIALLY the character in Nana... Nana's(Hachiko) friend.. what's her name? ah Junko~

i think it looks awesome. it's different, its the next level and its perfect to look at. her hair is awesome

sort of like the style of the 4th Ayu in the Step You PV. I thought it might be colourful hence the pink/green/yellow special covers. Sort of a bright cover

I wasn't disappointed.

I don't really like this cover..I think there are too many colours here, and I agree it's really somehow like Rule/Sparkle. And I also agree it looked a little cheap, unlike the previous albums imo. Actually have hoped for more different styles or a more classy feeling..

But it's a new start for Ayu! So a refreshing image will be gd too

Anyone else think Ayu's going backwards on the "levels"? I'd expect this kind of cover from a much younger and amateur artist trying to catch attention with a load of clashing colors - not the empress of J-pop with her usual elegancy @_@.
Though with that said, I am glad she's trying different things I guess...but ugh that hair has got to go.
And -> whoever photoshopped this photo should get sacked.

I like it!

She really meant it when she called the album "NEXT LEVEL"

AyUta · #7 4th March 2009, 02:31 AM

I didn't like it at first glance, but now I do

lovelism · #8 4th March 2009, 04:35 AM

i think its ok imo....
The other album covers looks much better then this. However, its the NEXT LEVEL! So, there is a change!

mcluva420 · #9 4th March 2009, 05:06 AM

i dont love the cover, but i was so surprised. all those funky colors and funky hair

kirei_ayumi · #10 4th March 2009, 05:13 AM

i love it! the colors are magnificent...
its new and unique...
kinda like namie and kuu combined XD

NintendoHTF1242 · #11 4th March 2009, 05:24 AM

I don't like it, the colors don't blend well, Ayu looks like Namie, and her pose is awkward, and lol photoshopped out tatoo.

YuriChan · #12 4th March 2009, 05:27 AM

I think it's a nice concept! Weird, but nice!

I'm looking forward to the other covers! HOPEFULLY, the CD+DVD version will blow everyone's minds! XDDD

Iyreen · #13 4th March 2009, 06:13 AM

I like the cover, except for her frizzing hair and that striking yellow glove (@_@)

The gloves are the only dislike I have of the cover... Other than that, it's a really nice concept.

jimex289 · #15 4th March 2009, 06:20 AM

It's a little different from her past stuff. Overall I think I'm neutral on it. It's not horrendous but it's not absolutely terrific either.

Deneb · #16 4th March 2009, 06:47 AM

I like the old elegant covers, this cover's head is abnormally big imo.......

mcluva420 · #17 4th March 2009, 08:24 AM

the cover is like...
her hair is like a tied up afro .. like namie amuro's funkytown cover, like someone said
the outfit looks like her outfit in ladies night pv
and those gloves! somewhat like a mix of rule/sparkle & duty (the CLAWS)
her eyes look kinda scary and big..seems really photoshopped.. they look really light brown @___@

i never expected her cover to look anything like this. i always expected something more classic/elegant or something.. then again, shes probably taking her album cover to the NEXT LEVEL too lols... maybe her wardrobe too jk

ayuchloe · #18 4th March 2009, 12:05 PM

in my opinion, ayu needs to bring her style too, to her NEXT LEVEL... and of course, the songs too

LacusClyne · #19 4th March 2009, 12:08 PM

i hate her hair and that ugly cover and nails.

i'm just crossing my fingers that i won't get a poster from cdjapn with THAT picture

SURREAL__RAINBOW · #20 4th March 2009, 12:18 PM

ayu is going electronica

so she had to change her style a bit and make it a bit phunky and crazy!!

i lovee it

love the colors and everything

cant wait to have the album!!
