I want her to WOW me again with the covers. Not something peach, or where she's just had her glam squad work on her. Something surprising, like Duty, H, NEXT LEVEL, FIVE, etc. I like the Terminal and A ONE covers, they're gorgeous, but not too far out of the box.

Hoping for something summer-y at least.

I like the title!
I like when she is doing creative things like this.

Better than "Love Blablabla", "BLABLABLA fill in the blank Love", "BLABLALove"... Whatever...

The title is a little weird for Ayu. I expect this sort of thing from Ai Otsuka or Anna Tsuchiya but for Ayu... not so sure.

FIVE had a meaning that could be explained quite well. Plus, the font design was pretty neat.
The "weird" thing is the iteration of "X" that we don't know the meaning yet.
And I understand truhappiness who says that "sixxxxxx" is more likely a title for AI Otsuka, Anna Tsuchiya or whatever Jpop female singer. But it doesn't suit Ayu so far. We learn to be used to her new titles, it became a routine.
I bet there's a meaning behind it, or at least, I hope so. Unfortunately, I've learnt to have low expectations about Ayu's releases to be not disappointed.

It's been kind of a weird shock but I still have faith in ayu with this title. I mean A ONE was kind of a stretch but with a title like sixxxxxx it's more... Concrete I guess.

It happens with all her duet's Just don't pay much attention to there posts. They are not really adding to the conversation than just being a bitter person Its like criticizing a painting before its even been painted.

With a title like "sixxx...etc." I hope the covers are a little edgy.

It's the stylistic choice on how the title is presented.

FIVE, in all capitals, is SO Ayu.

Sixxxxxx is very in line with stylistic choices that Anna and Ai have both made in the past.

The title imo suggests an edgy photoshoot. Ayu, don't go for only pretty this time!

The new description for the mini seems like they abandoned the uptempo thing and want to go for a 'summery' feel for everything and have variety across the five tracks. Wonder if they ditched the RedOne track for now.

From this:
2015年2作目となるアルバム! 仲間由紀恵主演のNHKドラマ10『美女と男子』主題歌として話題の「Step by step」や、宇多田ヒカルのカヴァー「Movin' on without you」を手掛けたプロデューサー、RedOneによるダンス・チューンなど、アップリフティングなアゲ曲 中心に全5曲収録予定。 Blu-rayには、「Step by step」(video clip)、「Step by step」(making clip)他、全3曲6本の映像を収録予定。

Ayumi Hamasaki brings an album including "Step by step (the main theme song of TV series "Bijo to Danshi")," a dance tune produced by RedOne, and more for five uplifting songs total (subject to change). Comes with a bonus Blu-ray featuring three music videos including "Step by step," making-of, and more for six footage total (subject to change).

To this...

2015年4月8日にデビュー17周年を迎え、通算16枚目のオリジナル・フル・アルバムをリリースしたば かりの浜崎あゆみが、早くも2015年第2弾アルバムを投下!仲間由紀恵主演のNHKドラマ10『美女と男 子』主題歌「Step by step」や、夏らしい爽やかさと切なさを携えたPOPチューン等、バラエティに富んだ楽曲を収録するミニ ・アルバム。 (C)RS

First was "FIVE", and now "sixxxxxx" - although there's five songs, not six...maybe the sixth one could be a hidden song (like "FIVE"?)

True. No maxi-singles-packaged-as-mini-albums anymore, plz. thx u.

I'm interested, but I hope she doesn't get to a point where she's filled her discography with regrettable names, like Matsuda Seiko has. I guess there's this point where, inevitably, you've ran out of common sense names to use (like it was going to happen sooner or later that Ayu named songs MOON, BALLAD, HANABI, etc.) But I hope Ayu doesn't end up with names like Baby's breath or 20th Party or It's Style '95 or LuLu!!. She's gotten close with crap titles like Song 4 u and now sixxxxxx, but let's hope it doesn't get out of hand and end up with something like A BEST 3 ~KAWAIIIIIIIIIIIIII ver.~ and A BALLADS 2 ~Boku wa Super GO! Saiyan-pan Sad!~
