i think this album will land in her lower tier of her Discography with Party Queen, Made in Japan, Colours and Rock'n'Roll Circus.

Usually all her albums has at least few songs that I want to skip right away, this one doesn (Maybe Summer Again is the one I dislike the most, but it is objectively far better than ''Thank you'' or ''Eye Smoke Magic'') However, none of them feel like a clear stand-out that I could see myself playing in repeat 10 years from now. (Maybe VIBEES when we hear the full version? and since it is only 3:18 I think it will just be a short fun song).

I am still very happy we finally have new music on an album and it is a much satisfying product than TROUBLE.
I agree, this is far, far from her worst album. I'm pleasantly surprised. My favorite songs are Dreamed a Dream, haru, yo koi and mask. I think mask should've been a ballad, but oh well. I'm really happy we're getting an album and even happier that it's really better than expected. It also feels like everyone's having fun.
