Nice (stylised as Nice.) is an album by Japanese pop group PUFFY, released in 2003 it is their third North American album. The US release featured a few track changes: "Atarashii hibi" and "Tomodachi" were replaced with "Urei", "Teen Titans Theme" and "Planet Tokyo", an English song with the melody of "Akai buranko". The album peaked at No. 20 on the Japanese Albums Chart.^[2]

The introductory carrier melody of "K2G(Kimi Ni Go!)" was derived from the introductory interlude of the song "How Was It for You?" by James, from this English Postpunk/Britpop band's third album, Gold Mother (1990).

The cover art for the American version of the album is a homage to John Lennon and Yoko Ono's "bed-In" peace protests held in 1969. The songs Planet Tokyo and K2G (Kimi Ni Go!) are featured in the Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi World Tour Game and Teen Titans.
