Me too. And I agree with him. While I don't downright hate the album, it is most definitely TJ's weakest, and there are tracks I really don't like. At the same time there are a few (4 or 5) tracks I like. But nothing comes close to my favourite tracks from anything else Shiina.

Yeah, that has to be Boutomin. I've stated my opinion on this song a few times, but let me reiterate: worst song ever. If there was one song in the whole universe that I wish had never be made, it would be Boutomin (or Our Country by Mellencamp).

I've started to warm up to Sake to Geko a bit even with the Kao ripoff piano.

Even if this statement here was by far one of your less ridiculous.
Well, most people that don't like Kyouiku or Hirama rarely say it, they are usually just newer phase 2 fans who just talk about phase 2. I've talked about my dilemma of having to argue between two things I like before (Hirama & Uki) and so I can't say I have gone and defended Hirama when anyone's bashed him because I don't remember anyone saying anything bad about him, other than probably Tsuchiya, and in that case Maou and JR were all over it.

Also, I was just making a joke! I didn't get all serious about what Cinders said or anything or tried to start an arguement with him. If I had dont that then you could have said I took it personally, but I didn't.

PS. I guess it's not clear that I LOVE Kyouiku AND Hirama and Variety is my least favorite of the Tokyo Jihen's albums?

Oh, say what? You mean it wasn't the most serious thing ever!?



Yeah, I got that. Just using it as an example (even if--as I said--not the best one) of the type of post Hedo makes that I have a problem with.

(Though definitely a lot more people than just Hedo occasionally make that kind of post)

So, exactly what about my post annoyed you? If it was clear that it was a joke and had nothing to do with me bugging people that don't like something I like, then what is it? That is was just a joke and nothing else?

I just had a friend IM me to tell me that he loves Mirrorball and Fukushuu and that everyone else on the album sounds "too carnival meets elevator music"

I almost spit out my non-existent coffee

OMG

Although I like those songs, I haven't heard anyone choose those two out of them. If anything, those are probably the most disliked @_@

I was shocked that a) he picked THOSE two and b) he dismissed the rest as carnival elevator music.

Did he miss OSCA, Killer Tune, Sake to Geko, and Kingyo no Hako?
