Also I still totally disagree with anyone who says FIVE has a concept. That thing does not have a concept and there is no way you can pull one out of it. It's just a bunch of random stuff thrown together.

All songs in FIVE are connected by the theme of hope. Even the album art and PVs are linked in to the concept of hope, though the messages are all hidden. ayu herself has clarified all that in various mag interviews. So I won't call that "no concept".
If I had to name one ayu album that has absolutely no concept and is really just a mash of songs, m(u) will be my choice. To put it in the bluntest way, that album is literally just a bunch of unlinked singles and another bunch of unlinked songs written by GEO put together. But that doesn't make it any less wonderful; m(u) is one of my fav ayu albums actually.
So yea, it's nice when ayu albums have a concept, but does it really matter if it's "just a bunch of random stuff thrown together"? Does having no concept (or none that we've noticed at any rate) make a lousy ayu album? I don't think so. So, sorry but I have to totally disagree with you on this.
