Review by Lauren McFadden

I have an extremely hard time getting tired of this catchy single by Kuribayashi-san. I'd certainly recommend this single to Chrono Crusade fans, as the full single is definitely not to be missed, with brilliant guitar solos and the same driving energy that we only got a small taste of in the 1:30 OP of the anime. I was also pleasantly surprised by the extra song on the CD--Kuribayashi-san's music always seems to be enhanced by the violin and guitar features. Also, her voice is very smooth and beautiful. Definite must-buy for Chrono Crusade fans!!

I was very pleasantly surprised to find that both 'synchronicity' and the 'Amrita' piano solo were on this single. Both are some of Makino-san's best work, and hearing a beautiful instrumental version of 'Amrita' was a treat for those who have been following Tsubasa even through the OAVs. The epic scale of 'synchronicty' fits the OAV it accompanies perfectly, and having the full version is a definite must. Makino-san's beautifully childlike vocals also shine in 'Amrita'.

Maaya has continued to *wow* me ever since Yuunagi Loop, outdoing herself each time. This single is absolutely beautiful on its own, but becomes even more stunning when placed in the context of being Tsubasa [TOKYO REVELATIONS]' outro theme. Those who have not seen the OAV will certainly enjoy the melancholy, yet sweeping and gorgeous track--but those who have, are definitely in for a treat. This song epitomizes the story woven in the Tsubasa OAV and fans of the series should know that this single is 'not to be missed'. The 'bonus' track, other than Saigo no Kajitsu, was a pleasant surprise...upbeat and funky without reverting to the rather juvenile quality of some of her earlier work. Maaya's style is certainly maturing. Definitely one of the best music purchases I've ever made, hands down.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that, contrary to the majority of Maaya's other CDs that I own, I loved each and every song on this little CD. There is not a single 'miss' track--the first track grabs your attention from the very beginning, and the rest of the album tracks flow easily and flawlessly, and often seamlessly into one another. The combination of acoustic guitar, piano, and synth in this album are not to be missed--and this has some of Maaya's best vocal work yet. I will definitely be recommending this album to my friends.
