Only on my second listen, so I won't post a song-by-song review yet since it always takes me a few days to digest her new tracks. But from what I've heard:

- This is probably the most mature-sounding album she's ever released.
- Every track is UNIQUE.
- Like with most Ayu albums, experimental sounds. Wouldn't be the same unless we heard a song that is like nothing she's ever done before.
- Very nostalgic feeling, sounds are reminiscent of her earlier albums.
- It actually feels like an album, like Ayu has known what she wanted it to sound like right from when she wrote MOON.
- Thank U.. really not sure about that track. Its too sugary and sweet compared to the rest of the album. It is well placed next to blossom and Sweet Season, has a catchy 'lalala' chorus but it lacks substance.
- Tracklisting is perfect, I wouldn't change a thing there.
- My favourite album track right now is 'Like a doll'. Perfection.
- insomnia is in a league with the NEXT LEVEL interludes, its so good.
- November sounded better as a preview. The full version needs more 'oomph'.

Be back in a couple of days with a full review
