I think this description is suitable for both albums (well except the peppy thing, if I got what you meant with it). Referring to Adult as 'contemplative' is maybe too much, isn't it?
I think it's nice that the two music critics think highly of Adult, which is a more accessible album compared to Kyoiku. But I still like Kyoiku more.

Well I think both album are really accessible, but for different reasons. It's not surprising that critics thinnk highly of it, at least it's a step further production-wise and a good album compared to the average stuff that pop music reviewers have to check. Though I'm not sure that a rock music magazine would praise Kyouiku.
