Koishikute is an odd one. I love the vocal arrangements and certain aspects of the production, but compared to her previous ballads it was a "flat".

Yeah, less singles would have been better maybe, but then we had HOTEL in 2014, which I didn't like that much as well apart from the shooting, it only got better with Dance In The Rain at the end of the year.
Well, you know, in a sense Bon Voyage was like making a blank page for Kuu, which is why I also understand her choice of the travel theme and the colour white.
It's also what she talked about in interviews back then, she said goodbye to her old life and started a reorientation where she wanna go with her career as well. Then she started to experiment more, leaving sappy love ballads, her overly cute image and her typical release schedule behind.
