When she uses her A its like for example, Ayu BEST or Ayu BALLADS, so which means this album is not Ayu ONE but has a different meaning

In Party Queen's covers it was visible too, but not in a close up.

(I like this kind of random fact ♥)
Secret? It had a fake tattoo completing the real one, but I still would count it in

I love all of the album covers.... she looks soooo gorgeous. Weird seeing her in the CD+Bluray covers without super duck-lip powers going on XD The onllllyyyy complaints I have are that 1) I wish she didn't wear those contact lenses (because the rest of her looks so natural...) and 2) the covers aren't exactly creative by any means.

However. I will take something like this over covers like Party Queen any day... AH GOD SHE LOOKS SO BEAUTIFUL IN THE A ONE COVERS. I think I like CD+DVD the best. Oh and I agree with the A(L)ONE theories. And that maybe she's not alone anymore so she removed the L and is "one" because she is whole now.

Ayu using amazon.jp as the link to pre-order on her official facebook page. Maybe she trying to help fans, because amazon usually do have a much better shipping price. Compared to YA CDJ which are like you have to give them a arm and a leg just for shipping costs, I never though of using amazon to do my ayu shopping

This is one of the few times I cannot decide which cover I like the most.
She looks gorgeous in all of them imho .

Also, I'm happy there aren't many people complaining about the font this time

I hate the title but I think there's at least a little bit more meaning behind it than behind FIVE's title. I don't care what Ayu said. There is no way anyone or anything will ever convince me the "hope" contrivance was anything more than a last-minute afterthought. And even if it wasn't, which is totally was, it's still stupid because five and hope are in no way related or symbolic of each other otherwise. lmao

I'm sure she probably is just legit going for the "A ONE -> ALONE" thing. It is super cheesy but it is what it is.

I still think it's very amazing that someone figured out the word 'hope' in FIVE. I would never have noticed.

Probably cause she isn't really doing a super fun diverse record. Looking back, she's only ever really had two super colorful covers.

A One covers are nice. I'm a little under whelmed, but they could be much worse.

CDL I hate.

Probably because her virgin stans flipped a shit when they saw the album cover for Party Queen.

why cant people appreciate beauty shots as covers? These are so simple and stunning. She doesn't need to be styling for an artistic cover anymore. It's no longer the days when you do that.

^some people may not like them because they find it boring.
People are not going to like everything that ayu does.

5 was released 5 months after the tsunami, and this is where hope and 5 connect with it other... As people need hope to go through a major disaster that will affect them for years to come.

But I'm not surprised you didn't get that... Why do I always feel like I'm reading a post written by The Grinch everytime you reply a thread?

I wish conceptual cover...but got this...well...i'm happy as long as it's Ayu..haha

maybe she wants to approach younger listener with casual looks,,

still what i don't understand is the concept behind the title...

love the CDL cover though...
