A fun album Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This is a good album, not a single boring song. I really like the tracks with the Far Eastern-flavoured melodies such as "Mata ne" and "Viola". I highly recommend it to those who like pop music in general, ie. ballads, active/upbeat tunes and in between.

 Lively & memorable! Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10

I've been in love with JPOP for several years now, but I wasn't too impressed with the much bigger hypes - like Ayumi & Utada. I believe that Hitomi, along with her various styles can be just as comparable.

My favourite style she sings is those of a mild Mediterranean/Latin feel. The 2nd track in this album - 'ANGELUS' to me has proven her potential. It's a very lively & powerful combination of Salsa, and Dance which I believe makes it the HIGHEST standing point in this album. If you have listened to similar themed songs like 'MOTTO', ‘La Fiesta’ or ‘Fantasista’, you will love 'ANGELUS'.

Hitomi is also an extremely delicate singer. 'HATSUKOI', is reminiscent to her previous hit 'POINSETTIA'. Both are slow but deeply intricate and poetic that makes them unpassable. 'MATANE' uses a similar approach but delivers a less poetic feel.

There are 9 tracks that I personally like so far - particularly the emotional 'JEWEL OF KISS', 'MATANE', 'YUME BIYORI' (for the ending theme of anime Doraemon OST) and 'HATSUKOI'. The included DVD MVs are also colourfully designed and full of personality. It is also a memorable thing to watch - especially the final video collage 'behind-the-scenes' for each of the MV production.

Even if she is one of those low profile artists, I always think otherwise as I believe that she deserves more fame. What makes her really appealing is how most of her songs (including the ones in this album) are technically complicated, but each inside has a tight, cohesive connection & flow in between. It was her previous best album Delicious! I had early last year that leads me into buying this limited edition of Love Letter. Highly recommended.

An amazing album! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This is a wonderful cd. Ms. Shimatani covers several musical genres, and her voice is pleasant to the ears. I've come to very much enjoy her dancey beats mixed in with traditional music.. it creates a very fresh and fun style. I would definitely recommend track 1 "Tsuioku + LOVE LETTER", track 5 "Z! Z! Z! -Zip! Zap! Zipangu!-", track 9, "Viola" (you'll see what I mean about the traditional influences in this wonderful song!), and track 11, "Yume Biyori".

If you're looking for a new artist, Shimatani is DEFINITELY one you should check out.

The BEST Album of All Time! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I fell in love with this CD the moment I played it. It has great tunes, her songs are beautiful, and it's totally worth it! I think this is one of Shimatani Hitomi's best albums of all time. I listen to this CD repeatedly for several days. I must commend the great instrumental music as well. You will be surprised!

Lots of energy Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
I have to admit, the first song of hers I heard was Angelus through watching Inuyasha, and I fell in love Hitomi's voice and style immediately. Also, Viola is a beautiful track that puts the listener in mind of ancient China, while at the same time, it has a dance feel to it. While many of the tracks have a decidedly fast pace and dance feel to them, Shimatani pulls it off well. Nice!
