Nice topic! ^-^

For me, it's:

GUILTY - 8/10
I don't like it too much. (don't) Leave me alone, MY ALL and talkin' 2 myself are gorgeous but as an album it doesn't stand to its own, IMO.

HEART STATION - 7.8/10
I'm not a huge Utada fan, because I feel like a lot of her songs sound the same. And she tends to take one short melody and repeat it throughout the chorus (Beautiful World, HEART STATION, BLUE, etc.), which I find annoying sometimes. On the other hand this album has GORGEOUS songs (Stay Gold, Take 5, Beautiful World) so until I get used to Utada this goes on 2nd place.

Kingdom - 7.5/10
I really want to like this album more, because BUT, FREAKY, Aishou, Under and Black Cherry are some of my favorite Koda songs, but the album songs are so BLAND IMO. Amai Wana -- I got tired of that after a few days. anytime, it's OK. Ai no Uta, well ok that one's good. Koi no Mahou wtf? Anata ga ~something~, nah... I don't know, I'm just not feeling the album as a whole. Oh, Himitsu is pretty wack, too.

Edit: It's really close for me.. All three albums are great, IMO.

@austin: Yea wtf is up with Utada singing "HEARTO SUTATION" in HEART STATION lmao. The first times I was WTF is she saying? @_@
