Maybe, to make it symmetrical, they will use "オスカ" instead of "OSCA".

I just wish there was a Hata song in the album too...

I also lament the lack of symmetry in the English/Japanese... if we could force them to be Otona & Goraku, or force Kyouiku to be something like.. Edjukeishon [*shudders*] that'd be nice indeed... but we can't D:

I just hope this tracklist is symmetrical... I was sorely disappointed when HF's wasn't.
well... I guess the solo albums wern't really symmetrical in titles either... but if you look at it this way:

無罪モラトリアム
勝訴ストリップ
加爾基 精液 栗ノ花

~
教育
大人(アダルト)
娯楽(バラエティ)

we have symmetry! hurray! (red indicating titles that differ to the other 2 in the set)

Plus.. it was Normal~Normal~Special~Normal through both careers.
By that I mean:
Ringo had 2 regular albums, then Utaite Myoli, and then back to another regular album.
Jihen has had 2 regular albums, and then SR went off and did Heisei Fuuzoku, and now they're back for another regular album.

I know thats grabbing at straws and probably more co-incidence, but its interesting still

GONG, maybe?

Speaking of the TV themes it makes total sense that each album is related to a channel genre: Education, Adult & Variety.

If you look the DVD covers too, it makes a lot of sense. The DVD covers for Kyouiku (education) were cartoony like children's learning television shows. The DVDs for Adult were mature and risqué.

OSCA
ミラ ー ボ ー ル [mirrorball]
キラーチューン [killertune]

But I think they won't include Mirrorball in the new album. Maybe GONG~OSCA.

Well, they did completely change Mirrorball after JCHI. It seems like a lot of work for it to only appear in a few concerts. Superstar, Tomei Ningen, and Himitsu were all a part of Dynamite Out and ended up in the next album, so I think that's probably what they're doing here too.

Hmmm, yeah, it's possible, so.
