ARIA

I started to be a fan of yu-yu 2 years ago because of her song 'Kimi to zutto...', the theme song to the live action drama of Detective Conan, starring Mizobata Junpei and Kutsuna Shiori. I immediately fell in love with her beautiful voice and decided to buy this single and also her album 'Always'. They're both worth every cent! But then yu-yu stopped bringing out CDs for a while, which made me quite sad because, although I went to some of her live events in Japan where she also sang new songs, I still wished to be able to listen to them at home. So you can imagine how happy I was when this album was announced. I pre-ordered it immediately and it was the very right decision. This is one of the absolutely best albums I've ever listened to! I love every single song of it! This isn't only her second mini album but also the image album to the game GOD EATER 2 by the way. The theme song 'Hikari no Aria' is simply wonderful, I personally like the album version (Track 01) the best. My favorite song is 'Tegami' (Track 02) but like I said it before, every song is very good. 'Requiem' (Track 03) is completely in English and yu-yu sounds really cute here. Her Japanese version of 'God and Man', or 'Kami to Hito to' (Track 05), is better than the English one, which was released in 2010 I think and sung by another person at first. And the last song 'Soumatou ~Refrain~' is very cute as well. It's incredible how easily yu-yu can hit very high notes! So I totally recommend this album! yu-yu is a really amazing singer!
