Aya Matsuura thread 2007 Week 28 (July 8 - July 14)

from here to here

 

First off blackwin kindly reposted the Gomattou - Shall We Love Making of which is in the RS folder now.

Then Matt (having reported the move of the thread review to its new ad-free home) inquired about this photobook (Aya & Maki in HP 2006 Winter).

He then followed up with two of the most kawaii pictures (from a 2003 Domoto Bros episode)

Quintaxos then started a discussion aka laudatio about Aya's acting, and japanese_boy provided a few more pics, stressing her killer legs :-))

Matt then just had to post the next two: She had gotten (slightly) better lately with her fashion (and the pics above are great), but when I watched this episode from what appears to be some sales show (on the tracker right now and in the RS folder later on) I thought: OMG!!!!! The reincarnation of my grandma!!!!!!
Coz that's exactly the kind of dress and pearls that grandma Irene used to wear. 30 years ago! And look at the hairdo. They didn't even care to hide those hairslides properly... Fumi to the rescue pleeeeeeease
The criticism was unanimous amongst all thread members.... WyldKat suggested that she needs Miki's help as well, but not with fashion. She needs the ability to death stare the hairdresser into submission next time he/she wants to experiment. Though Matt is afraid that Aya herself had gone to the lavatory when God gave out fashion sense...

Nights4Saturn reported the completion of his Ayaya PV series on veoh. Good work, mate :-))) He also uploaded probably Ayxa's first ever live performance (of 1000kai no kiss on the Hello! Project 2001 Sugoizo! 21seiki Concert. She was about 15 then. On veoh and in the RS folder

rnwc completed the subs for episode 7 of Aijou Ippon (looking forward to the last three :-)))). The whole episode is in the RS folder of course.

And Matt tried his hand at some mosaic artwork: (for which there was no reply - I'm insulted...)

and some early official images:

Coming back to the fashion thing Aya sported a cute top (but awful pants and shoes) in the new Meringue (some pics from the torrent description).






WyldKat remarked: "You'd think one of the staff would have said something. "No really Aya, go back to your dressing room." But then again alot of her concert and PV outfits have been pretty out there. Ok really out there. Kind of makes me think that perhaps it's intentional. Clueless and needing sheltering from the world? And Matt replied Or simply wearing what she likes (which could be interpreted as a strong character). To which usagi_no_kami presented the last word this week: Maybe she just really likes dressing that way... trying to be a trendsetter and not a follower.

Cya next week :-))))
