I think his review perfectly shows the difference in perception of a non-fan, casual listener who has no idea what Ayu has said about the concept, and us fans who read her every word.

He isn't bashing or hating, he's really praising the opening tracks for their mixture of styles, impact and power. The reviewer just doesn't think the rest maintains the quality.

Did people miss HIS point completely?
The way Ayu aproach the concept on the lyrics is pretty literal... The "lonely party queen" thing begins already on the 2nd song, on a line written in English... To get the "story" behind the album u don't need to go deeper than reading the lyrics in order...

Sorry, but this review is pretty lazy...
