AAA / ココア

I had mixed feelings about Chiaki, but after reading this report that someone had put together of what she said during the talk show, I can fully understand what she went through and support her with all my heart.

She made the decision for AAA, because she loves AAA, and AAA is more than her life itself.

I thought she could have chosen another path, instead of just quitting. But she truly knows about herself and the group so much better than how we can imagine. She set her mind after thinking so darn hard about it and getting support and acceptance from the members and staffs.

That’s how special AAA and members are to Chiaki. And that’s how special Chiaki is to AAA members.

What kind of album is third album NEXT PHASE?

Sota: I think it’s one with a lot of width. I think it even takes it one step further than previously, and the songs we’re releasing this time have enough presence to where any one of them could have been a single. I think we’re presenting a Da-iCE that has gone one step beyond our previous sound, which will also be enhanced since the album comes out one week after our Budokan performance. By the way, the phrase “NEXT PHASE,” which is also the title of the first song, came from all the members. It’s a phrase we use frequently. When a new tour is decided, we always say “We’re going to the next phase” or something along those lines. Because we’ve used it as a milestone for so long, we felt like we should use it as a title.

Yudai: It’s one of our favorite phrases!

Sota: It’s a really cool habit, right? (laughs) It’s so familiar to us, we really needed to use it.
