I was so disappointed by Utopia when I listened to it for the first time. After listening to it a few more times, it really has grown on me and I can say it's a good album (but really far from her best).
My favorite tracks are Shoujo Jidai, Triangle and Let Me In. Others tracks are ok, except Eien which is awful to me. I really don't like and I will probably skip it everytime I listen to the album, eww
Regarding the affair gossip, I don't really care if it's true or not, I'm not that interested in the private lives of artists. I just hope she will be okay in the end.
But I agree she looks really skinny lately (and a bit unhealthy sometimes to me). She looked much better in Diamond Princess and Tokyo Star era, imo.
