Since I listened to READY STEADY GO for the first time in Fullmetal Alchemist I never stopped loving L’Arc~en~Ciel. They’re my favorite band EVER.
That’s why today I’m really happy to share this review with you. ♥
I’m talking about Wings Flap, the lates single from our Laruku.
It has been released on December 23, 2015, with 3 versions. (you can find them at CDJapan, but the one with photobook is out of print, sadly)
I was quite poor back then, so I bought the Regular Edition. Anyway I’m happy with it, because I really love the contrast between black and colors on the background. (Oh, and -believe it or not- I still don’t have a blu-ray reader, so…)
Okay, let’s see my pics~
About the tracks…
I love Wings Flap. It has something old and something new from Laruku, it’s quite relaxing but also nostalgic. It reminds me of the tracks from Tierra (like In the air or Wind of Gold, but faster)
HONEY -L’Acoustic version- was nice to hear. I’m not a fan of these acoustic b-sides, but it’s a nice track. I love HONEY, it’s one of my favorite songs ever, so it’s good to have another version of it. And Hyde’s soft voice it’s so precious!
Theeeen, each edition of Wings Flap comes with L’Arcasino stickers. They’re really cute and funny~ (my fav is definitely the Ken one tbh)
That pink thing you see it’s an application card, but it was valid only in Japan so… never mind.
L’Arc~en~Ciel’s singles are always so aesthetically pleasing, in my opinion. Great music and great visual, that’s awesome!
For the lyrics, I recommend Kelana’s translation.
Aaaand I scanned the little booklet from this edition. Here: (click on the pics for bigger resolution)
You can use my scans and pics, but PLEASE CREDIT ME (link to this blog/page)
Please let me know if you liked this review! I have more L’Arc~en~Ciel stuff (also something by VAMPS), so if you like the idea I may talk about other singles/albums next time~
Bye! ♥
Hello, what is an application card? o3o?

Hello! You can find it in a lot of limited editions, but it’s always valid only in Japan… and that’s why I never used an application card, but I guess it’s something like a “pass” to join a contest or to receive extra goodies (this may be an example http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/tokuten/anime_smoon). I hope I’ve been helpful! >w<
