Sei -say- >>>>>>>>>>> never+land

I think the rock genre is more misono's style than the cute/pop songs from never+land. I'm really happy with the result of her 2nd album.

What are you talking about "not good" a #13 position is absolutely amazing for an artist as obscure as misono >.>

Well I'm just scared that her album will only fall in the ranks, instead of rise up...that's all. Especially with her single reaching #10, I was hoping for a bit higher...can't I wish? =D

On a side note...did anyone happen to see the oricon numbers for #1 and 2? They are 4333 and 4193...#3 spot has 3170, which are REALLY low for first day...meaning I think misono's album isn't going to sell that much in the first week.

^Ninin Sankyaku didn't reach number 10 because of misono at all, it reached number 10 because of Tales of Symphonia 2.

Regardless, with her recent small surge in popularity I was hoping for slightly higher sales, that's all.

I'm really digging this new album. misono did well on it and I hardly cringed whilst listening to it, unlike never+land.

It's okay. I mean, it's great for a misono album, but just as an album, I felt like there was something missing.

This album is considerably better than her last.

It's really really good, actually.

I'm enjoying it a lot (something that didn't happen with never + land)

I'm not really feeling the album to be honest. I mean, true, it's a HUGE step up from never+land. But it's still a pretty mediocre album. None of the album tracks really stood out to me, and the single tracks weren't really as powerful to me as the single tracks from never+land. never+land had VS, SPEEDRIVE, and LOVELY CAT'S EYE, some of my favorite misono track. The only single I really loved from the Rock Project was Zasetsu Chiten. They others where blah, so while it's a step up, it's still not amazing in any way shape or form.

^All the singles (except for Mugen Kigen which wasn´t that bad either) own the Singles of never+land (except of VS which was supreme) but they are totally different in style so.....I listend much more to juunin Toiro, zasetsu Chiten & Nini Sankyaku than to Kojin, Speed Drive or LCE

See, I find myself bored by most of the singles from this album. I liked n+l's singles better.

imo, dat's songs where 10x better than misono's >.>

I'm torn. Part of me wants to buy misono's new album and the other half of me doesn't.

I want to buy the album because I own Never+Land and loved it! I think she can have a nice voice....and I enjoy her musical style (most of the time).

However, I don't want to buy the album because I HATE the cover.

I'm going to ponder over it for a while.

The album is great actually. But if you're really that torn then just download it first. o___o'

I think if you LOVED never+land, you probably won't enjoy her new album as much. I thought never+land was all right (VS was the only track on the album that I was really wowed by), whereas I love almost all of sei -say-.
