AVCK? What's the matter with AVCK? (We're more too familiar with AVCD or something)

I'm trying to get into BoA's Japanese work but I don't know where to start. Which of her Japanese albums is the best?

I suggest Valenti! I really love the songs Sekai no Katasumi De, Discovery, Moon & Sunrise, Kiseki, and flower.

Valenti was always her most popular of her older Japanese works.

BEST of SOUL. Lol.

BEST of SOUL is actually a good choice! It was my first BoA CD that I bought, and it made me become a fan! It's the album that introduced me to BoA, but my favourite of hers would be Valenti. I guess if your a new fan BEST of SOUL would be the best choice, because it has all of her hits. ^_^ Last edited by Violently Happy; 25th August 2013 at 08:27 AM. |

Ah, thanks for all the suggestions guys! I wish they had more BoA albums on iTunes. Is Identity any good?

IDENTITY is a really good album, but I wouldn't call it her best album. It has some good songs like, THE END そして and..., This Is Who I am, Bump Bump!, Mamoritai: White Wishes, Neko Love, Possibility, LAZER. Those are the songs I like the most off of the album, but I think it's really different from her other stuff. I would give it a listen, and if it's not your taste I suggest you listen to some of her other albums, because I know a lot of fans who like BoA didn't really like IDENTITY... :/ For new BoA fans I would suggest BEST of SOUL, and Best & USA, because both of those are her best albums and it shows her older music aswell as some of her newer music! ^_^ |

IDENTITY is personally my favorite album from BoA, sadly it's pretty disliked by fans. It's her only album that feels cohesive and like a full body of work in my opinion, albums like The Face have some really great songs but sounds like it had no creative direction or concept whatsoever, just a bunch of random songs mixed together.
But on IDENTITY every track flows great with each other and has the same atmosphere when you listen to them. But i think that's the problem most fans have with it, the ballads can seem too samey and maybe even boring to some. Personally i think their some of her best. Mamoritai, Possibility, The End そして & Fallin' are just stunning! Is This Love is really the only track on the album i don't care for, it goes absolutely nowhere and never takes off.

I have to agree with you! You explained it well! I was trying to think of the words to describe it but I couldn't! Every track does flow with one another. I like THE FACE, but like you said it did feel like there was no creative direction in it. I feel OUTGROW also had a lot of creative direction like IDENTITY. I think my least favourite album by her would be Made in Twenty (20). |

I just saw the trailer for "Make your move" (Cobu). It doesn't seem too bad, but it's nothing special, though BoA's in it so I'll watch, otherwise I'd probably pass on this movie.

Tail of Hope English version
(edited vocals) |

|

^I've been looking for that one without it being edited.
Btw, despite the editing, i must admit that her English has definitely improved A LOT. Last edited by ILoveGeniuses; 10th September 2013 at 06:50 PM. |

Another single? :O I haven't even listened to Tail of Hope or Action yet. D:
I recommend VALENTI, LOVE & HONESTY and MADE IN TWENTY (20). I also love LISTEN TO MY HEART quite a lot♥ |

I haven't even DL'd Action... I don't usually bother with those random songs she does strictly for Korean shows. Most don't hang onto me as well as her actual singles and albums tracks.

^You're missing out then, coz Action and Between Heaven and Hell are 2 gems, way better songs than most of her album tracks.
