Not really like the song...too easy breezy for my taste

It's a grower and nothing more.
Even beautiful was better.

What happened to ayaka? She used to release haut albums and slayed left and right. Now this... Like, the beginning was quite possibly the best jpop album of 2012. Her new album has no highlights except for beautiful. Feels so disjointed. Ayaka shouldn't even bother with singles and make cohesive albums.

Sounds promising...but I just pre-ordered it (CD only, not willing to change my computer's DVD drive), and I'm NOT even going to try to listen to it until the PV on JPopsuki (HD) comes and/or the end of my school year!

But, okay...why am I seeing a couple of Hajiiro "haters" above? Well, I do agree Ayaka today is different than when she first appeared in 2006, but...

YesAsia's description of Nijiiro

Quote:

Singer-songwriter ayaka is back with her 15th single, Nijiiro! Nijiiro is a lighthearted song with a gentle melody that serves as the opening theme to Hanako to Anne, the hit NHK morning drama about the life of the woman who translated Anne of Green Gables into Japanese.

Top ten, not bad! In such a competitive world (and now for sure my order did not count in the Oricon sales due to their recent move NOT to include international sales, like me, to its sales numbers)...

->7->6

I think Nijiiro has a shot in doing much better than number one & I like the single a lot too , especially the B-side

Delicious n Bold · #71 19th June 2014, 11:04 PM

It's a cute but very forgettable song that probably anybody of ayaka's genre could do. The trumpets are the best part of the song.
The b-side is ayaka's best song of the year so far, however. It's not as good as beautiful though... I really want to emphasize how gensoukyoku really saves the single. I love ayaka but ultimately nijiiro is trash. She can do so much better, and gensoukyoku is proof of that.
Let's see, from her last album, I've personally heard only two good songs, beautiful and gensoukyoku, with the latter probably not appearing on ayaka's new album. The new album is really not going to be her best....
