Rather glad that I didn't have to come up with any Japanese script for any of the titles up there.  A pretty dynamic and summery lineup with Southern All Stars and Anri that's given some more oomph with Misato, Puri-Puri and Kubota. However, for some mellowness, there are those Miki Imai albums in there during her early stage peak, and Takako Okamura's "Kiss". With the exception of the No. 6 entry, I think I've managed to get every one of those albums into the collection. For me, as for a favourite, it would be a toss-up of a three-sided coin amongst "Love Wars", "Ivory" and "Retour".
