That's unexpected and the cover seems to be very... strong.

I suppose you could look at "(A)" in terms of being enclosed within a primarily defined space.
She was made as Ayu and she is forever linked to that image, as she is primarily defined by the public and fans, continually being compared to herself and the image/icon that was built from it. People don't see the person, people see the product, and expect her to eternally live up to that.


this is exactly what I was thinking.

I love what I've seen so far. The concept behind this album is really strong.

Her eyes look like something out of a Japanese horror movie.

It looks like she's been through a lot with this cover.

Like this is how the 'mad world' makes her feel.

Somehow this styling is very Ai Otsuka though.

Thanks for the better pic, Aderianu~ I loooove the look in her eyes. She's channeling the first half of the album's lyrics.

I love the cover! It represents very well the concept and social critic of the album.

Well, at least her lips don't look like sixxxxxx's and A ONE's.

I like it.

That is a really interesting cover! The font isn't awesome but the imagery is so interesting!
I think it really represents a lot of the lyrics of the album

Hm...

Okay, at this point, people are saying that she has "those lips" when they are just her lips. They exist. We can't shave her lips off.
