      BEST OF 2025 (mini-rate) It's 2025. I believe we haven't done the best of j-pop since... 2015, so it's been a decade. In some way, it's symbolic, as the 'diva' era ended around that time, too. While

    I completely missed the moment when Ichiko Aoba became big, I remember when it was like 3 people listening to her. But good for her, the recent material is nice (and the latest album was reviewed by a lot of Western outlets, wow).

    Well, I know that there's a Steam release of the Kingdom Hearts games today (which I'm too broke to buy rn), but it was still a jumpscare. I'd take Sanctuary or something over that.

    Ohhh duh, thay makes more sense. You'd think they'd do Simple and Clean since that's kinda the song of the whole series, but whatever... 

    We did just get that Simple and Clean re-recording that was incredibly boring :rainy:

    What happened to ayumi hamasaki sekai. Someone here knows the discord url? 
    Now how will know all my Ayu news :emofish:

    You have to wonder how that kind of thing gets all the way through production, editing, and release without anyone saying anything :biblio:

    It's not there for me either. Damn FFX-2 music rights... That soundtrack isn't on any streaming services. I wonder why.

     

    1000の言葉 is easy enough to find on YouTube, but I know it would be better to have one comprehensive playlist. :doc:

    It's probably something on Square's side, though a couple of other songs are missing as well, namely Hashire from the 3 SPLASH single. I suppose that one isn't a big loss and can be omitted, but 1000の言葉 is iconic and stuff, so I'll have to include it and pray that it's not a deal breaker.
