I'd say the more similar Shiina-related song would be maybe Bunmei-Kaika.

Just saying Ringo rocks way harder haha. I can use Perfume's Night Flight and Ayumi Hamasaki's Trauma (hyper sugar production) as examples, and I think they're better songs musically than the two Zettai Shoujo songs, which sound like doing idol music just for the sake of it (watered-down Suki Suki Daisuki), ミッドナイト清純異性交遊 in particular is bland as fuck.

Ringo combines her edgy side with pop-rock goodness. It's very mainstream compare to sth like Mahou Ga.

Cos Lailailai Team's mild indie rock sounds nothing like Midori's fierce jazz punk?
Mariko's best years are behind her and I'm happy with whatever she makes now, and m@u fulfills the nostalgia. m@u isn't the artistic direction I really want, but I still like it more than Zettai Shoujo, to each his own I guess.
