What do you mean by underestimated? Do you mean that it isn't given as much praise as it deserves?

I like this album, but to be honest I agree with you, this isn't her best album, and there are some some song I don't like. Though Duty and Surreal are good songs! (I love the begining of Surreal)

Yeah it is sort of underrated... 'Duty' after the first listen didn't really do anything for me but after a couple of listens it's probably my overall favorite album even though 'I am...' is just as amazing. 'Duty' just has such a great variety of songs and a lot of her best works especially 'SEASONS' and 'Surreal'. I think a lot of people love this album but there just isn't much to discuss over it besides the fact she should have done something else for the cover ^^;; I just don't like the Ayu/Leopard thing. - Team Ayu

it is one of her best albums. but not to many people like it, that's why it's rather unknown.

but it's one of my favorites

I haven't heard the whole album...

Thats probably the hardest album to find I think... 2 songs that I haven't heard, but I really want to are vogue and Far Away.. I haven't heard the originals... I love most of the songs I've heard though... She has great vocals on the whole album!

It is probably because when people think of a good album they think of I am... right away. Doesn't mean Duty is bad though, it's perfectly fine.

I like most of the songs in Duty album, I don't know why some people don't like them. The only song in this album that I think it was "OK" is End of the World and Girlish, the rest are all awesome!!

After a while of hearing the tracks, I think I like Duty more than I am... ! While not by some huge margin, I remembered blasting "End of the World" and putting that song on repeat when I first heard it! Plus, with other songs like "Far Away", "Surreal", and more, it's like the "lost album" to me

in my opinion Duty is just too awesome album from me... but maybe people dont like it because it is lack of promotion (maybe?) as we know... duty only have 5 singles... vogue far away seasons audience and surreal... (not like i am which is more than 5 singles).. and maybe because of the cover... (leopard ayu heuhuehue) but i like duty because its a well mixes up album... i just love scar and end of the world... i wonder why there isnt any pv of them... coz they are the BEST ever song ayumi ever sang...
