1. GILLE - GILLEsound vol. 1
2. miwa - Delight
Other good, but not perhaps list-worthy albums from this year include Kalafina's Consolation, Sakanaction's Sakanaction, MISIA and Mami Kawada's best-of albums and Ayu's LOVE again. Still waiting for some more albums to really knock me out the way GILLE and miwa did. I'm pretty excited for yanaginagi and Ikimonogakari's albums coming in July, but other than that, can't recall any albums I'm expecting this year.
Bonus: Favorite singles this year - Every Little Thing's ON AND ON, BoA's Only One, yanaginagi's Yukitoki and Nami Tamaki's REAL.
