Adult (Japanese: 大人（アダルト）) is the English title of Tokyo Jihen's second album, released on January 25, 2006.

Adult marked the debut for guitarist Ukigumo and keyboardist Izawa Ichiyo, who joined Tokyo Jihen after the departure of previous members Mikio Hirama and HZM (Masayuki Hiizumi). The album reached number one on the Oricon Weekly Album Chart on February 6, 2006.

Outline

Shiina Ringo, Izawa Ichiyou and Ukigumo played a key role in this album and arranged songs while arguing. About Shuraba, Shiina arranged the single version mainly, but, obeying Shiina’s wishes of not wanting to record the single version on the album as it is, Shiina, Izawa and Ukigumo re-arranged it based on the latter's proposal.
