Missing felt more like a Love Song leftover to me.
Song 4 u is a straight Nana Mizuki-ripoff (or any current Anison really).
And Melody is so generic, you could compare it to any other generic midtempo band ballad in the J-Pop business and it would sound similar. That's the type of stuff you can get from every Pop girl out there.

3. Melody -> a song giving me feeling the album Duty (sounds like Key)

So perhaps, "again" will have
1. A song give me feeling the album I am...
2. A song give me feeling the album RAINBOW
3. A song give me feeling the album My Story
i agree Melody sounds like Key!

LOVE was her old stuff all over again. Maybe she's trolling us and again will be something fresh.

Don't put too much thinking into ayu's work because It's obvious she doesn't.

I'm talking about the crazy theories/analysis and so on...

Same. It's so tiring you can come up with over a billion possibilities. The one thing that really gives me a kick is when people make up there own song titles and tracklist that never existed...I'm just like o_O what....I don't even.

I guess there is little point in guessing stuff, especially since we know so little about the release.

I do wonder if there is any hidden meaning behind again, music wise.

If anything, her last mini album was titled LOVE, so why not that she is in LOVE, again?

I personally don't think there is anything pointing towards that. So far all the suspicions are pretty much baseless. again is prolly the title of one of the songs.

That could be it too... I don't want to make too many assumations until after this release... We have 5 releases, so are they going to be related or not, we don't know as of it, but after this release we might get some answers.
But LOVE didn't have a title song, so I'm also basing the next release off of that. But they could also just not be related at all...
I want a freakin track listing already. Lol.

I'm hoping it was just because of the season and the LOVE theme that she gave us this sound.

Really hoping again is not like love songs. I'm sorry Ayu, but I've had enough.

Maybe now this sound is an ayu staple and we'll never be rid of it.

The title may just be like that because Ayu felt like it XD
It might also have to do with the lyrical themes.

oh god no...

give me something new ayu! i need some unique songs, ones that don't sound so similar.

surprise us with something like ladies night, lady dynamite, sexy little things, hanabi ~ep ii~, rainbow, etc... something that sounds very different.

For me Missing isn't really like anything else from her. It doesn't remind me of anything. It's a beautiful song and I stan for it and its remix so hard.
I hope she has another dubstep mix on this mini.

Missing sounds a lot like something from Love songs, but is so good.
I think is her best song along with Return Road
