I felt that listening to most of the tracks, especially sending mail and like a doll that it wasn't complete.

I feel that there was such strong potential and it just failed.....
I'm not surprised. For me many of her recent songs from 2008~Current had potential (nice verse and build up + awesome instrumental) but for some reasons Ayu just did not ace it (songs just fall flat towards the end)

Some examples:

Name / Reason for fail

Curtain Call - Had potential to be as awesome as jewel, but too repetitive
Microphone - Cool chorus and bridge, but what was she mumbling/murmuring about during the verses? :|
Don't Look Back - She really missed this big chance as she made it TOO repetitive
Meaning of Love - Nice title but sounds like a filler track
Blossom - Awesome chorus but verses = fail, and abit too repetitive.
