Singer/Songwriter ayaka has unveiled details of her upcoming DVD, which is tentatively titled MTV Unplugged ayaka, and is due for release on January 13th.

In the announcement, ayaka revealed that she had been diagnosed with Graves' Disease (which affects the autoimmune system) and would be withdrawing from her music career to concentrate on treatment.

The DVD will feature footage taken from "MTV Unplugged ayaka", which was held at Osaka-jo Hall on November 18th. The release will be issued in three variants, with the regular and limited edition scheduled to hit stores on January 13th. The BLU-RAY version of the performance is expected to be released on January 20th. The regular edition and BLU-RAY will include one disc which will feature footage taken from the performance along with a documentary feature, whilst the limited edition will include the aforementioned disc plus a bonus CD with a live recording taken from the concert.

The DVD is expected to include songs from across her career, from her debut song I believe to national favourites Mikazuki and Minna sora no shita, plus her rendition of Michael Jackson's Human Nature.
