I'd probably go as far to say that the last album that really felt like an album was the universally-claimed-to-be-rushed Secret. And perhaps the reason why a lot of people really like (miss)understood is because there are barely any interludes to be found.
That could be true. I also think one reason why some people can't be completely happy with her last couple of albums is that there aren't as many full songs in them. It's like if just a couple of interludes were full tracks there would be more of a chance for people to be pleased with them. We know how amazing a full ayu track can be. MW was so much better than Mirror and until that Day... was originally supposed to be an interlude.. I can only imagine how awesome a full "The Judgement Day" or "Disco-munication" would be.
