^It is still in the
reversal chronological order. The only exception is BW remix. I guess it serves as a bonus track?

But maybe I just have a really strict view on ballads  I think in the end it all comes down to opinion. If you think Sakura Drops is a ballad, then it is!

That is why I put question marks on Letters and DEEP RIVER. DEEP RIVER sorta sounds like a ballad but the lyrical content is so out of that definition. Letters lyrically is a ballad, but the arrangement doesn't sound like it. It feels like she wanna be a bird, flying up high, and humming "ahh la la la". SAKURA doroppusu is a ballad to me, even tho in a traditional Japanese arrangement.
If using the really strict view ballads (arrangement and lyrical content wise), then I guess hikki ballads are: First Love, Eternally, FINAL DISTANCE, Dareka, Be My Last, and FOL -Ballad Version-. For me, Sakura should be included.
