For this region...
 
Round 1: Dance de Bakoon! It's so fun.
 
Round 2: I really wish Singing wasn't on the Mugen single because I really feel it brings it down by a lot for me. But I have these singles both kind of equal in mind... but in the end, I can find something to like in all three songs for Middle/Gamusha/Tsugi, so I'll go for that.
 
Round 3: Crazy Kanzen na Otona!
 
Round 4: I miss you/THE FUTURE, I think they did the cool, mature concept better than ever. However, Kanashiki/Adam did have Attakai Ude de Tsutsunde, which is a big plus for it, but in the end, I find I miss you/THE FUTURE more memorable.

#4 was such a hard choice for me. It was crazy.
 
I Miss You has a soft spot in my heart, as it was essentially the start/near the start of my translating. I listened to the radio rip over and over to finally get the Japanese lyrics written down, then translated. Plus the song itself was such a creative risk, I appreciated UFP for actually taking that chance. It was a great, great song. Then THE FUTURE is just one of my C-ute jams. I have to get up and dance when I hear it. And I liked the MV, no matter how simple and cheesy it was.
 
On the other hand, Adam to Eve was a such a strong single as a whole. Adam to Eve was shortly after C-ute really hit their stride and began constantly putting out good content. Probably a few singles after. The song itself is a big C-ute staple. Personally, Kanashiki Amefuri is a song I really like. But pairing these two with Attakai Ude and Dare ni mo Naisho? It's almost unbeatable. Too good of a single.

Same. Even my least favorite on the other one was better than it, otherwise it would have won.

I went with majority for everything except....
Kimi wa Jitensha Watashi wa Densha de Kitaku I still love the concept for that single and I wish other groups in H!P did it!  God I loved that single.
Crazy Kanzen na Otona is great, but the effort they put into Kimi wa was ground breaking for H!P.
