Yet I think I'm fine with the song. Well I just heard it once. I hated meaning of Love, but this one is fine IMO. Her voice is really gentle. But I don't really see any improvement from crossroad for example.
Unfortunately, this mini is shaping to be very uninspired, forgettable. Somewhere I don't understand why she is not trying to go further.

By the way, when did ayu take the vocal training? Before PoM? Did she speak about it on tweeter or TA? I want to read something about it as I missed it...
I'm totally agree with every single word! She should evolve.

And about the vocal training, yes, in one TA entry she said that during a rehearsal of PoM tour, her voice just stopped, she couldn't sing, so she called a vocal trainer (the one who teached her to sing for the first time so much years ago, I think) to take some lessons. Apparently, she started taking lessons from the most basic things.

After that, she could sing correctly.
