C-ute 6th Album "Chou Wonderful! 6" Review

It's been awhile since I've done an album review (last one was Fantasy ga Hajimaru Juuichi, right?)
Anyway I'm here with C-ute's new album.

1. Chou Wonderful!

Chou Wonderful is probably your typical C-ute song. It's energetic, powerful and cute. I really love it, but I have some problems with it.
It sounds more like a Buono song. I haven't got anything Buono but I think that this song would of fitted Buono's image more than C-ute's.
The instrumental kind of bores me. I'm not a big fan of the instrumental for several reasons, it has a lot of guitar which reminds me of a rock song, and I hate a lot of rock songs (not all). It doesn't really fit their voices. Even though it's supposed to be pop rock song, I think they turned it into more of a rock song and gave the pop to the singing.
Apart from that it's an overall awesome song

7/10

2. Midnight Temptation

The first time I heard this I was wondering why everyone loved the song, and now I see why. The instrumental sounds so cool and their voices blend quite well with the song. That's about it. I don't dislike anything, even though I used to dislike it

9/10

3. Iza, Susume! Steady Go!

I don't like it for unknown reasons. Mai's voice sounds bad but it has improved over years. Also it sounds like they just repeated every line 1000x

3/10

4. Rururururu

I don't really find this song that good. They're voices sound really beautiful in it, but I just find myself falling asleep. It was supposed to be a lullaby song then I would loved but assuming it's supposed to be a ballad it just doesn't really do it for me. Which is quite disappointing because I was looking forward to hearing a new C-ute ballad

5/10

5. Wakaretakunai...

I like this song...sorta. I really like the sound of instrumental and their voices, but after awhile it gets really boring. Their voices start to sound exactly the same, even Nakky's sounds the same and in my opinion that's hard to imagine. Besides that I like it but it's not their best

6/10

6. Circle

I absolutely love this song. Even though I don't find Maimai's voice that good, it definitely fitted this song so much. Her cute voice mixed with an almost cute and genki instrumental definitely sounds awesome. The other members sounded awesome but Maimi and Maimi definitely sounded the best in this song.

10/10 <----- Pretty rare to see this

7. 3ban Houmu 3 Ryou Me

Ok this has to be my favourite song on the album. Not because Maimi gets quite a lot of lines because of the Summer feel of the song. It sounds so awesome, the instrumental definitely fits every single one of their voices. Even though the song drags on for a long time I still find myself swaying to their beautiful voices and summer instrumental. Definitely the best song on the album

10/10

Overall the album has some blunders and some ups. But I must admit that it is much better than Shocking 5 but still I wouldn't say it's their best album of all time
