"THE BEST!!"
"This album is the best! It's a bit like MY STORY. It has less songs than MY STORY, but I love each and every song! Even the instrumental tracks!

There are 8 PVs and 8 making ofs included for a total of 16 clips with a bonus of an AT09 digest.

This album's songs are all wonderful, and the PVs are quite artistic, so when buying it, please consider buying the +DVD version!

"A Labor of Love"
"I was a fan of Ayu from the very beginning of her debut. Ayu's songs really saved me at that time. Without Ayu's songs (and I'm not exaggerating about this) I might not have survived. That's how much her music touched my soul. However, recently Ayu has been doing the same thing with her lyrics, changing the wording and the way she says words. Her vocabulary just seems too narrow. When I finished listening to this CD, it really wasn't that good, but and it felt like I couldn't go on liking her. I saw Don't look back's PV and perhaps she also feels that she has such limitations? I made my own interpretation of Microphone, and decided to continue supporting Ayu in the future. If you are going to purchase this CD, I recommend the DVD version. If you like rock, then you will like this album. For me, the album was disappointing. I look forward to next time."

This is really roughly translated from Google translate, haha. Maybe someone else can go over the critical reviews.
