Kindan no Resistance

I ordered this single around September 2015 as a christmas present to myself, along with the other three singles that are on Mizuki's 11th studio album SMASHING ANTHEMS. I bought the CD+DVD edition of her 11th album as well! Kindan No Resistance is another strong epic song done by Mizuki. The lyrics are fantasic, and the cover photo's completely match up with the song's concept; a princess living half a life in an illusionary world. I love the flute in the song. It makes the song very passionate while the other beats make it more catchy. It's a very nice combo to me. BLUE is yet another awesome ballad. Ai No Hoshi on Mizuki's Vitalization single was an instant favorite for me. This is yet another one. Her ballads are getting better and betterr in my opinion. This song, just like Ai No Hoshi, has hearthwarming lyrics and a very precious kind melody. Nana's voice is very emotional in this song, which makes me emotional as well. Dream Rider is yet another cute song. This song is used as an ending song for Nana's radio program, just like Dramatic Love on Mizuki's Vitalization single. I had to get used to it at first but it's so much fun to listen to now. Just as the lyrics say: "IT'S FANTASTIC!" I love the packaging of this single a lot. The copy I got is a special slipcase edition, which is one of the first-press editions. It has golden glitters on it, and honestly, I love it so much. It's a very nice detail! I'd recommend to buy this single if you are a fan of Mizuki, or if you like a lot of variety in songs!

After hearing about the anime and the opening, I was super excited to hear the full version. As I was listening to the tracks, I thought that this was a really great single. Mizuki-san has done a great single again. The title song had a great rhythm and flow to it, while Blue was both beautiful and had a lot of emotion. All the tracks were great and I enjoyed this single immensely.
