This is a pretty cute J-Pop album. It very much rides the wave of current J-Pop instrumentals and vocals; however, there is enough influence of heavier genres such as J-Rock and Visual Kei that keep things sounding interesting throughout its runtime. Although this isn't an album I would see myself listening to in full again, the lead singles are catchy enough that they made it to my 2025 J-Pop rotation.

Somewhat decent J-Pop album with a really good song in 'Never Let It Go' and a lot of mid-to-boring filler songs for padding out the album. I pretty much enjoyed all of the songs to some extent, but I wouldn't go back to to most of these.
