I am so, so mad that Sorrows also suffers from what I'm going to call "Last minute syndrome". The potential is there, is really is--her vocals are on point and the lyrics are great, I don't have a problem with the melody, but oh my god listening to the studio version of this song is like nails on a goddamn chalkboard (AND WHY ARE HER BACKING VOCALS SO LOUD, IT'S NOT EVEN LIKE NAOKI YAMADA MIXED IT) I think it's going to be totally epic done live but the studio version is dead2me tbh

And what is the deal with the cheesy-ass synth hiding in Step by step/Sky high? So much of the actual music sounds so...superficial and manufactured. (Like, more than usual.) Summer diary is undoubtedly the standout track from sixxxxxx imo.
