Is "Idol" the Peak of YOASOBI's Production, or Just the Hype?

Okay, serious question for the long-time fans: Do you think the mixing and arrangement on "Idol" (from the *Oshi no Ko* OST) genuinely represents their absolute best work, or did the massive viral success and the anime connection inflate its status? I love the track, obviously, but when I listen to the sheer technical complexity and emotional depth in something like "Gunjou" or even the earlier, more frantic energy of "Yoru ni Kakeru," I wonder if "Idol" is almost *too* polished. Anyone else feel like that meticulous pop production actually sacrificed some of the raw storytelling energy they usually deliver? What track do you think is their real production masterpiece? Discuss.

アイドルが最高峰?(笑)いやいや、それただのアニメ効果でしょ?ぶっちゃけ、アニメファンが「これ神曲!」って騒いでるだけで、音楽的な深みとか、そんなんどうでもいいんじゃない?別に「群青」がどうとか、「夜に駆ける」がどうとか、そんなマジメに語ることか?どうせ次のタイアップ曲が出たら、みんなそっちに飛びつくんだから。YOASOBIの曲って、基本的に全部"そこそこ良い"でしょ。どれが最高とか言い出すの、疲れない?😅
