^ How is reusing a picture from the NEXT LEVEL photoshoot "creative and courageous"? If anything she's only recycling what she did last year... I mean that's understandable because it's the tour for NEXT LEVEL, but that definitely makes it not creative or courageous.
I'm not talking about the picture itself necessarily, but the fact that it's different from her other DVD covers in the past. And yeah, okay the image is from the NL photo shoot, but come on, that's the theme of the tour so what do you want? It makes sense to me.

I agree here, I like how the album and the concert dvd for the album match.

I like the cover. True, it's from the NL album shoot, but that's the point of the tour - it's called "NEXT LEVEL" because she was promoting her last album, which happened to be called "NEXT LEVEL". It's nice to see her creating very similar themes on both the album and tour.

I also like the little jack-holes (I forget what they're called ><) and the volume button at the bottom - reminds me of the "Pieces of SEVEN" performance ^^

Not really? True, the colors on MY STORY and the AT05 DVD match (they're both pink), but there aren't that many similiarities between those two, AT06's DVD and (mu), and AT07's DVD and Secret (besides the fact that they're black).

she made a photoshoot for the Concert Tour 2000 and for Arena Tour 2003-2004, but they weren't older photoshoot; they were made on purpose.

The colors, the editing, the chosen aesthetics (not only of the covers, but of the entire tours), IMO they are matching the albums covers and concepts since At05

on a happy note, ever since AT 05, her DVD covers have been screen caps/footage of the concert itself, so yay for breaking that pattern Ayu this time round! (^_^)

Those photoshoots were done before the tours started and were featured prominently on goods for the tour.

I think the NL booklet had a better shot than the one that was used... The one of her lying down and shes on both sides, (if i remember correctly)

The small balls and the TV just make this cover a bit too cheap and almost amateur for my liking. Other than that, the variety of colors just looks amazing. + her hair and the hat are nice too.

in my opinion, i dont like this picture. Mainly because its been used already. its like they had no idea of what to use as a cover for this dvd. i think they should have made a collage or a pic from the concert itself. BUT the concert is better than the cover
