Ahh, so it means nothing in Japan. OK so yeah, this whole thing is speculation. Maybe he'll be "graduating" soon like Gomi did.

lord i hope not... i like him on stage with Ayumi... they have such great chemistry.

if it doesn't mean anything, then why even do it?

^^Sometimes, but it can also be too damn cheesy, always reaching for each other and whatnot. I'm all for emotional performances like Memorial address at AT 03-04, but when it's so obvi fake (like hm...maybe HANABI at I think AT 07) it just doesn't have the same affect.

And Shuya just is always doing the same thing: dramatic dancing and looking lost/puzzled.

^ yeah... i will say that they have chemistry about half the time... but when they do... i can just feel what ayumi wants you to feel you know...

But yeah.. his arm throwing and what not about also gets on my nervous sometimes...
I thought I read somewhere that he is "best" at freestyle... I wonder if thats what some of the stuff he does on stage...

Meh, I'm sure he'll be around for AT 12 though. Hopefully it won't be the same old routines though. haha

Shuiya isn't get that much spotlight since... At08?

^^Has it been that long? Wow, I didn't realize

really? i thought him and Maro (spell?) were all over the place... at least I see them a lot in the tours... not so much in CDL..

-PCDL he got one small solo...
-At09, he shared the lead with Maro and Midori...
-CDL09-10, he had no solos...
-At10, everyone got their own share of spotlight, and even so, he shared his with the same dancers from At09...
-CDL10-11, as far as I remember, he had no solos...
-At11, he had a solo in Days, reprising the At09 one...
-CDL11-12, he had one solo in November, but all dancers had their share of the spotlight...

She just "overused" him on At07 and At08... And I never found it annoying cuz He grabbed my attention since At05, even if he had no big scenes at the time... Boy has presence...

Edit: The only PVs where he appears a lot are BALLAD, Part of me, Days and BLUE BIRD if u r really picky.

^^Overused him, huh? Like she is with Timmy now? Lol :P

^thats why peoples don't like him :laugh

^^I know, I get it, and I'm mostly with everyone else on that.

I believe Timmy really fits the Party Queen theme and aesthetic she went for... Even if he will have a big part (for a backup singer) on the next tour, I think it can be nice....

I would be worried if she used him this way for 3 albums on a row... what, taking a look into her past discography, seens not likelly.

About the concert... If she uses him (and Princess) on the same way Madonna used her back-up singers on some of her older tours, I would be totally delighted:

^^I think you're right. I think he's basically a prop for this album. He's contributing to the main theme/concept of the album.

So, people are thinking that Timmy's gonna be gone sometime in the future, after Party Queen is done? I'm a little skeptical because he was in FIVE, as well as he says that Ayu is his "boss". Also, if he is doing vocals in concerts, he could be around for a while. And somehow, I don't see him just sticking to just helping out in concerts, even if that was all he was supposed to do.

he is going to be around for quite some time...
:ets just hope him being everywhere for party queen was only an experiment...
I dont want him liuke this on every album, that would get bored.

About that tripped Shuya and the middle finger, I guess he meant it for him self. It was like : "Damn! I ****-up the dance!!" he must be felt ashamed then what to counter that? Well give his middle finger and act cool with it or something like that. Then again its not a big problem.

I swear to God if he composes a summer single and ****s it up, there will be no coming back from that. Lol

^ lord, more jazz... o.O... i would kill myself.

:roflmao
we'll do it together XD
