I love it! The song is a complete awesome hot mess and just insanely great! Quintessential Ayu, really.

I like it a bit more than I expected, but I'm pretty sure it's mostly because it's new. It's not bad but it's pretty messy as it's been said!
However, I might change my mind with an epic live performance!

Am I the only one who really dislikes the "we are the queens" part? Every time I played it on IG I got scared and annoyed.

Scared?
I've seen quite a few people saying it's cringy. I don't mind that it's in English but somehow I feel it doesn't fit the verse and the rest of the chorus so well. It might be because I got "used" to those IG videos playing "yes we are the queens" on repeat.

^Ahaha now that you mention it, I might have jumped the first time I opened the video when I wasn't expecting a song at all!

Quick, maybe stupid, question on iTunes: I'm considering buying the song even without being a big fan, because show support and blabla, but if I buy it now and it ends up on an album, will iTunes make me buy it again? I guess it's only 1€ something in any case but just out of curiosity.
I'm asking because I clearly remember iTunes showing something like "complete this album for xx€", with a tiny discount, but although I purchased Many Classic Moments before on the cover album, I paid MIJ full price.

I cut the intro, because I didn't like, but the rest is effing amazing! Those super fast kick-ass drums in verses are so epic! It's my new ringtone now. By the way ultra high quality version of the song is being sold for 540 yen on at least 2 sites.
This song is soooo fun to sing along to, can't wait to sing it at karaoke.

I like this but the intro is quite long and I'm really not into it.

OK! I'm on LSS with this!

11th spot is still pretty good for a song that basically only got announced to people who follow her social media
I wonder if this will get an album pv on her next on, or just appear as the bonus track

i've purchased the song off of iTunes and listened to the HD version. It's good but i'm still not doing backflips over it. I could do backflips over the intro, though. Maybe it'll grow on me.

Recochoku is a daily chart.
Sales from yesterday are published today.
iTunes e.g. is an hourly chart.
