Announced July 2, 2008 on the official HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR blog, Maakii broke the news to fans that she will be parting ways with the band at the end of the year after recently having been wed to DREAMS COME TRUE member Nakamura Masato on June 22, 2008.

 | The lead track, “キセキ” has a catchy chorus and sounds kind of like a ballad, with a bit of an interesting rhythm to it!
The second track “ルーキーズ” (”Rookies”) is a cool, driving beat that will pump you up! (It is also the theme song for the TBS baseball drama of the same name - ‘Rookies’, and after hearing it, I can see why they chose that song to accompany the drama!). [I'd give this song by itself a 4.25 out of 5 stars rating ^_^] |
 | The lead track, “あたしの街、明日の街” is kind of a straight-ahead pop/rock song - with melodic and appealing vocals from the strong Japanese female singer Hitomi Takahashi.
The second track, “mother’s car,” is a nice song with another strong sense of melody and vocal work from Hitomi (along with nice instrumental work as well from her band ;). |
 | ‘Kataomoi Fighter’ by GO!GO!7188 I would describe as “a little bit Japanese pop-punky and a little bit rock ‘n’ roll!” ^_^. It’s pretty good overall, with lively guitar-driven backbeats along with the spunky voice of lead singer Yuu.
The title track also happens to be the featured ending music for the Japanese TV anime series ‘Itarazu na Kiss’. |
