If she makes a lighter album, I'd rather have a LOVEppears-like album - fun songs, but meaningful lyrics. (m)u feels to me like it was too americanized for Ayu and the lyrics are overall quite weak, meh. MY STORY I consider a rock album, so not much of a change o_______O
But really, a lot of bad stuff was happening to Ayu lately, so that's probably what influenced her into making a dark album. This time around she seems to be feeling better, so the next one will probably be more balanced, I think. It still will probably sell less than GUILTY though, IMO... I feel like it's very hard to get your album sales up after you're already past your peak... isn't it? First they go up and up, then down and down, that's what's normal... I think. I'm happy enough that the drop from Secret and GUILTY was small~
BTW I don't understand what people have against the Marionette prelude, it's one of her best interludes EVER. And it gives lots of emphasis to the main song, which is like the climax of the album (IMO). GUILTY had such great interludes XD reBiRTH was the only boring one ne. And it's still not that bad, I like how the melody sounds happy and hopeful in the beggining, than it distorts a bit and starts sounding dark-ish and almost creepy-ish, and in the end goes back to hopeful. It does feel a bit like a rebirth haha.
Wa, I love this album<3
