Sad i couldn't be here for the final (i was at the movies). But thank you so much @Graves for such an amazing rate! The level of detail and commitment was unmatched, it made me fall in love with Ayu all over again So thank you! Happy to see my 11 (GREEN) doing so well, and STEP YOU winning was definitely deserved! Excited for part 3 (if there's going to be one?). I actually haven't listened to much of her stuff post MADE IN JAPAN, so it would be a great way to give the new stuff a listen!

ssshhhh it's on internet archive ❤️

I'm fine whenever, f work it's worth it to be here and be sleep deprived for ya'll Also when are we doing the Namie rate hihi

I totally get where you're coming from! I think my problem with the album stems from half of it being SWEETBOX demos, and the other half being Ayu doing what she's always done. It's a little by the numbers, and kind of the album that started her formulaic roll-outs. I wish she would have just done all SWEETBOX songs, it would have made it more exciting as an album. (Although it would have eliminated most of my favs). But yeah, her albums are rarely realized as you say lol.

now sis

I will only accept GREEN or fairyland as 1#

It's such a weird album. It's probably one of her most sonically inconsistent, but damn it has some of her absolute career highlights!

RULE is above SPARKLE?????!

Last Angel is a bop. But the beat sounds like an early 00s workout CD found in the bargain bin at Target.

Not Kabrona sabotaging SPARKLE audbaixhenfndb

Also Microphone used to be one of my favs. Idk it doesn't really do it for me anymore. It's good but kind of annoying

Fair position for Progress and BRILLANTE. Both amazing tracks, FIVE is one of my most nostalgic times when it comes to Ayu ❤️ Will being this high is a pleasant surprise! Never got the hype for Kiss'o'kill tbh

Love n' Hate, Identity and Pride being above BALLAD. What is this reality. Sad to see fated gone. Happy to see it above glitter. And usbdjahdbd not Graves rating Momentum that low. How sis? Biggest surprise so far is the love for the GUILTY title track. I've always adored it. But I remember it being constantly regarded as her most forgettable and "whatever" track on AHS lol. Guess it aged like fine wine!

Not 3 of my 10s being out already. I guess my taste is too complex for ya'll

Sad i couldn't be here for the live reviews, but European time zone and work ya' know. First of all. I love the way you choose to highlight the comments @Graves, it made me cackle how you roasted half of us lol. Thanks for the very detailed rate<3 No real surprises so far. I did expect ANother Song to be a little higher, but I do remember it being labeled as forgettable back in the AHS Sekai days lol. I like it. Bold & Delicious not being closer to last place tho? I am baffled. I thought it was universally hated!
