I'm liking the album, but I'm not amazed by it. Are ya ready? is the best track to me. I like the interludes too =O!!

just finished listening to the album! i absolutely LOVED it. i can tell the difference between ATTITUDE and hellcat, in terms of music style. i think i prefer her look and style now than before. but anyway, i think "are ya ready?" and "#1" are my favorites right now, but i love "Late Show" and "Awakening", too. the interludes are also very good. and i LOVE the scans, like seriously stunning scans! much better than hellcat's, IMO.

good job, meisa! this album is awesome.

I'm a bit disappointed with the songs. I know it's a mini album, but 3 instrumentals? Was that really necessary? I really like Stand Up and Are You Ready?

^ I know what you mean, but for some odd reason, that didn't bother me

that's true

hellcat didn't had those interludes so in a way the album felt short changed with 6 songs as compared to 8 in hellcat

ah well T_T

ayumi.hamasaki · #**246** 31st December 2009, 11:21 AM

that is true there are too many interludes in the album

aqua_crystal · #**247** 31st December 2009, 11:32 AM

Wow, the ATTITUDE booklet was actually quite nice

As for the songs, there are too many interludes, but like Temmy, I seem to have no problem with that. The only problem I had was that the songs sounded repetitive and her voice was missing that extra edge which she had in hellcat. Overall its good album but Kuroki could really do with some more vocal training. I'm quite curious to see how it'll do on Oricon tomorrow.

KarenPang · #**248** 31st December 2009, 12:08 PM

well at least she's moving away from the whole image she portrayed in hellcat if you know what I mean

but yeah ATTITUDE needs a lot more spins at my end , it's not like hellcat where every song on the album's so distinct/unique

NintendoHTF1242 · #**249** 31st December 2009, 10:48 PM

Are ya ready? is so damn hot <3

mcluva420 · #**250** 1st January 2010, 08:32 AM

just heard the ATTITUDE album. I love the whole thing! *O*

TV CM for "SPACE BATTLESHIP ヤマト":

You see Meisa at the 0:21 mark.

It looks like she's a fighter pilot or something. That peaks my interest in the film significantly.

KarenPang · #**252** 2nd January 2010, 04:26 AM

lol I'm sorry but basically I was staring HARD at SMAP's Takuya Kimura in there D: D: D: D:

Kuroki was like a blink & you miss kinda thing in the CM if you know what I mean T_T

Beauty4123 · #**253** 2nd January 2010, 04:29 AM

i saw that CM during JE countdown

i gotta admit, takuya kimura really IS handsome

meisa looked nice even if it was for a second.

FIRSTKLAS · #**254** 2nd January 2010, 10:06 AM

Takaya Kimura's hair is positively mesmerizing so I think you two can be forgiven.

And it looks like Meisa's character, Yuki Mori, may not be a fighter pilot after all:

Quote:

Yuki Mori (森雪): initially Dr. Sado's nurse, Yuki gained the additional responsibilities aboard Yamato of operating the radar, performing computer calculations, taking care of the crew's morale and searching planets for food sources. She is from the outset attracted to Kodai, but conceals her true feelings with girlish glee. As the only significant female crew member, she is also frequently the victim of fan service. Her Japanese name means "forest snow", creator Matsumoto being fond of female characters with "Yuki" (snow) as part of their name.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ato_characters

Unless there's extensive reimagining involving her character she may not be as kick-ass as I was hoping.

KarenPang · #**255** 2nd January 2010, 11:03 AM

yeah Takuya Kimura is just hot . It's a pity that he's married with 2 daughters if not I would have stood a chance JOKE xD

& the character that Kuroki's playing in SPACE BATTLESHIP ヤマト , it sounded like her in a way or 2 , a tough fighter

my eyes went big when I saw the words fan service attached to the description of her character there xD xD xD

aqua_crystal · #**256** 2nd January 2010, 11:57 AM

What the heck...? SPACE BATTLESHIP?! Sounds like the Japanese Star Trek... Lol, trust Kuroki to come in the strangest of roles.

Baernash · #**257** 2nd January 2010, 12:35 PM

I think I like her debut mini-album a little more. It's melodic, have more tracks etc. Anyway ATTITUDE still keep a good level

KarenPang · #**258** 4th January 2010, 02:00 PM

does anyone knows how ATTITUDE is faring on the Oricon charts ?

with that , I'm going to write my album review of her new EP on my blog now

Picaflor 7/4 · #**259** 4th January 2010, 02:48 PM

Just recently listened to hellcat. (yes I got around to it) I preffer hellcat over attitude. honestly if I was in the mood, I could skip every single song on attitude except are ya ready. on hellcat, I love every song except lost. I love sex, no no no, bad girl, like this, and criminal.

KarenPang · #**260** 4th January 2010, 02:59 PM

yeah that's the 1 problem that plagued ATTITUDE in that most of the album tracks on there sounded the same if not repetitive

also the intro & 2 interludes were a bit un-necessary I feel seeing that it's a mini album & not a full length album to begin with

not to mention , this time round Kuroki didn't had any personal input in ATTITUDE as compared to hellcat where she co-composed 3 songs there
