Utada Hikaru to Return to the Music Scene in 2015

The first 2015 issue of Bungeishunjū's Weekly Bunshun magazine on Thursday featured an article on the return of singer Hikaru Utada. It quoted a record company source as saying that confidential talks are underway regarding her return to the music industry. The source added that it has been decided that she will sing the theme song for the final new Evangelion film "slated to open between fall and winter of next year." The source explained that Utada has one more album left on her contract with Universal Music Japan, so the company wants the Evangelion song to be the focus of the final album.



However, the source said the theme song tie-in is entirely dependent on director Hideaki Anno opening the film next year as planned. The source explained that Utada can make a song without seeing the story or visuals, but she will not proceed with the project if the opening date is still to be determined.

Other sources have listed Studio Khara's fourth and final new Evangelion film in 2015. In June 2013, Enterbrain's OtonaFami magazine reported a 2015 opening date for the film. The website Web The Television wrote this past July that the film "is slated to open at the end of next year" — only to update the article less than an hour later to instead say the film "has created a stir online and is reportedly opening at the end of next year. […] (There is no official announcement of the opening date.)"

I remember there was an article about Kuu and beside the **** shaming, they made up a messy fight betweem Ayu & Kuu but seems like it was deleted
wait I found it http://mirror.uncyc.org/index.php?ti...i&oldid=899665

[❄ Frosty ❄]

Ayu and Kuu are cute together <33



The only conflict between J-pop I've heard of is between Ayu and Namie, but that was just speculation.

I don't think they are even true tbh. Ayu said once on Twitter that Namie is her senior, which means she has a lot of respect for her. Also Namie was seen attending the RnRC Tour and the last CDL if I'm not mistaken! I like to think they're good friends since Ayu hinted once in an interview that she's friends with some singers.

Her setlists are getting better with time but there's songs that she's still ignoring, that's sad. Hoping for some surprises next year. But I was hoping for Movin' on without you and I'm glad she sang it! Slayu!

[Chunk]

I'm discovering Shiina Ringo as of late and I think she's amazeballs. I'm also jamming to Ayu's version of Movin' on Without You a lot. The most bearable her voice has sounded in years.
