If you actually put Colours + A ONE + sixxxxxx in some good order and remove the weakest tracks it would make AN AMAZING album. For example:

1. a Bell
2. Shape of love
3. Zutto
4. Last minute
5. Sorrows
6. WARNING
7. The Show Must Go On
8. Sayonara
9. What is forever love
10. Summer diary
11. Step by step
12. Sky high
13. Out of control
14. Lelio
15. NO FUTURE
16. Terminal

I would personally remove sth around Summer diary/Step by step/Sky high because those 3 are the most similar to each other (musically, not melodic) and maybe add merry-go-round or NOW&4EVA... I just can't decide cause Sd/Sbs/Sh are better than merry-go-round/NOW&4EVA... Terminal/Sayonara are enough for trancy stuff...That would be perfect diversity album. I didn't included Mowy or Tell All because they was already somewhere (digitally) These are the strongest tracks (imho) from those 2 albums, mixed with this mini, we could have it all...

I was trying to keep mine with just this years releases but your really right.
Add Colours to the mix, seriously cull all 3 and rearrange them to flow right then that's an amazing album right there.

I haven't listened to sixxxxxx in full yet but I already had an A Colours tracklist. I imagine I could pull together a MY STORY length album now or two shorter albums as tracklists.

Just realised Step by step reminds me a bit of NEXT LEVEL, but I actually like it more. I was really not fussed when it first came out but hearing bits of the rest of the mini has gotten me really into it

This album is sooooooooooooooooooooo good.

That bridge was totally stuck in Sorrows so Ayu can have a moment on stage when she performs it, lol. Yuta did some good stuff with Shape of love's arrangement.

Sky high oozes concert closer.

I wonder if CMJK got busy and can't work with Ayu atm.

I had the feeling that we will get PV for Shape of love...
remember that Summer diaries is to be continue...
maybe the continuation of it is in Shape of love PV...
the song is too good for not having a PV and proper promotion...

I love this new mini album! Shape of love and Sky high are the standouts for me, but I'm definitely enjoying all of the songs. I like Summer diary much more now than when I saw the music video preview, probably because it was cut off before. Her releases recently have been amazing.

Didn't Ayu have a cover with one of those flowers on it before? Or a booklet? Hm...

So if you said that, there is a chance that this mini album will go to the actual album like what happen with love/again.

I really can't get over Shape of love. I think this is the first album of hers where my favourite song on it is the ballad lol It's just so...delicate sounding. I can't wait until she performs it live (hopefully!).

"sixxxxxx" is an absolute masterpiece! Not only did I already love the first three songs, we've heard, already...but the last three songs just top it all off. Truly amazing! I love how "Sorrows" is all rock/love..."Shape of love" actually reminds me a bit of "BALLAD" (which I love! ) so of course I'm in total love with it...and I just can't get over how beautiful/fresh the melody of "Sky high" is. Overall, this is probably my most favorite mini album from ayu & come to think of it...dare I say that I actually think this mini album blows the entire "A ONE" album...out the water?! (I still love "A ONE", though...)

Amaaazing job with "sixxxxxx", ayu!
