Love Again (stylized as LOVE again) is the fourteenth full-length studio album released by Japanese singer Ayumi Hamasaki. Stylistically, the album is a return to the aesthetic of Hamasaki's twelfth album, Love Songs. It was released in Japan on February 8, 2013, in six physical versions: CD Only, CD+DVD, CD+Blu-ray, Playbutton, CD+DVD+Goods, and CD+Blu-ray+Goods.[2]

Love again debuted atop the Oricon charts with first week sales of 56,348 copies, eventually reaching total sales of 88,825 copies by the end of its chart run. The album was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of Japan for shipments of over 100,000 copies, becoming Hamasaki's last album to do so.[3]
