BRILLANTE doesn't really sound like a end of relationship song to me... And the PV also makes me believe it was more a take on fame than on love, and this wouldn't be the first time she addressed about it, on Do it again for example she sounds pretty tired of everything... But oh well...
The thing I like the most on Party Queen is the album being the first time she is actually taking some of the blame for everything that happens to her. Before, everything that hurt her was the cruel world's fault, the cruel people's fault, but this time she is open to the fact that she is inflicting much of this pain to herself, that some of her problems and insecurities are no one's but her problem... What makes it her most mature work to date IMO.
Also, something I forgot to post, but marketing-wise, after being superexposed for so long and releasing a lot yearly even to japanese standarts, having low-profile 13rd and14th years followed by a big 15th year is a good plan.^^
