Although I don't expect for everyone to only have positive opinions either, I would think that some people would be more willing to give it a chance before automatically assuming that it's going to be bad. As fans (which I assume most of us are being that we are on an Ayumi Hamasaki forum), I understand that we don't have to love everything that she does but I don't think that it's unfair to say that we should have some faith in her to release a quality product, whether it fits our personal tastes or not. For me personally, I'm excited about the album and have a positive outlook on this release but I'm staying neutral for the most part so I don't have any expectations until I hear more songs than we've heard at this point.
That's what annoys me... I can understand people complaining about an album or single because they don't like the music/covers/arrangement/composer/ayu's nails/etc, but to say they "won't like it" when we have so little to go on just seems so ...dramatic to me. We have one full song, and a live audio performance/CM snippets of one other... how can someone say they won't like this album based on that? I don't get it.
