From the left, Lee, Hikaru, Pei. Please take care of the members!" http://i.imgur.com/h2M9ydnl.jpg |
Lee is fiiiine :D
|
Such a warm welcome :)
|
Ayu wrote リー , I'm not sure is he Lee or Ri, at his profile wrote "ryota"
|
Wow, 3 more male dancers/performers, groundbreaking.
|
They are nice, love the cake <3 I want some...
|
wow those new dancers make ayu look like their mom in that picture.
They look so young! |
I thought she looks same age with them )

They are so young!! Congrats to them <3
I wonder if some of the old members will announce that they are leaving A team. Also, Ayu sent to Kumi a bunch of juice bottles lol And Kumi posted on her stories yesterday. https://www.instagram.com/p/BmiieEcA9_N/ |

The new dancers are 18, 19, and 26 in age. From the girls, she still has Midori, Satomi and Iseki. The "new girls" are still to be a surprise. Lico and Midori are running rehearsals with them now, while Ayu and Kazuma are leading the male dancer rehearsals. |
I want Ayu and Kumi to collaborate on a power ballad. Japan will eat that up.

くぅ @kodakumi_official のストーリーにもあがってたケド、昨日バンドリハからダンスリハへ移動中にエレベーターでばったり👯pre tty pony~♀️ ・ 写真は一見真面目な話をしている様に見えますが、内容はツッコミどころ満載な爆笑大会🤣2人とも喋り声デカ イからかなり騒々しかったかと思われます笑 ・ くぅも私も8月26日a-nationなので皆様よろしくー❣️ |
Damn, I wish they'd collaborate!
|
I dreamed to have a photo with the 2 queens together for years!
I wonder why suddenly both talk that much about the other. Anyway glad to see they appreciate each other. |
I don't know what's going on but yass! I like this
|
Both of them are mentioning each other for a while at social media and Koda is also releasing a new album this month, a week before a-nation, the same a-nation Ayu said she will doing something new there..... and now this picture... considering she's using a lot of social media strategies these days... hmmmmmm....
|
Some kind of collaboration,hm?
They both look so fierce. |
Quote:
|
I don't know if their voices would mesh on a ballad... Maybe a rock or pop song. But I think if they were going to collab, they would have done it by now.

|
omg I love my queens!!!
and HIKARU is so handsome omg |
I would love to see them working together.
|
Crazy how like around 2006/2007 when Kumi really boosted in popularity there was the war between Ayu stans and Kuu stans :laugh AHS and JPM were a mess lol It's nice to see them together <3

New joint album [If this album doesn't sell 50,000 copies, Ayu and Ku can no longer release CDs]
J/K, they're not Misono. And with Namie retiring, they're the reigning queens of Avex's solo artist bank account. |
Ahhhh that photo makes me so happy!
|
A rock song collab with Kuu would be so awesome *_* I love the photo of them together.
|
After the Jolin/Namie collab, my dream would be complete if Ayu and Kuu did a song together!
|
I definitely don't want an Ayu x Koda Kumi collab.:no
|
It says that they look like they’re having a serious conversation but it was essentially right before the punchline of a joke or something.
And that they both were laughing very loudly afterwards. I’m not expecting a collab, but I surely wouldn’t be disappointed. Even if it’s just them singing a song by each of them together. |
I got married the same day this was posted and I don’t know what I’m happier about :laugh
|
I know it's not Ayumi social network, but... Timmy posted a shocking news. Our AHS member hayasaki apparently passed away :(
https://www.facebook.com/765885000/p...1178939925001/ |
This is so sad :(
RIP hayasaki |
OMG just saw it too, can't believe what I read.
RIP hayasaki. |
Quote:
|
That is a shock! He was pretty active in the chat room.
Rest in peace Hayasaki. My condolences to his close family and friends! |
How could this happen?! So sudden...
|
OMG no... I want to cry. He came to Belgium a few months ago, I didn't meet him but we often talked, he was so nice and sweet... I can't believe this :'(
|
I saw it too just now and still shocked... im speechless, :( :( :(
hes such a nice Ayu fan and we often talked on Fb :( his status on Wednesday seems ok... |
I saw he was ill a while ago... RIP. I guess things got really serious after his last posts on IG.
|
Rest in peace Hayasaki, you will be missed.
|
Rest in peace Hayasaki.
|
Rest in peace Hayasaki
|
he was a true ayu fan, the thing we could relate to. thank you for everything hayasaki, it was a blessing to share all of this with you. may you rest in peace.
|
omg what happened?
rest in peace, hayasaki.. |
Oh my god...
He was always eager to meet AHS members going to concerts. I always keep to myself when I go so I never took him up on his offer. Now I wish I had... this is so awful. Rest in peace Hayasaki, you're not forgotten here. |
rest in peace hayasaki. this is so, so, so sad.
|
Oh my god, this is so sad! Rest in peace.
|
He was such a nice and cool guy, this is really sad :(
|
Oh my god, what a shame. Shocked to hear this and my condolences to his family and friends.
|
Rest in peace, hayaski. You and your kindness will be missed.
- Ayu posted a dance rehearsal video, guessing it's for a-nation https://twitter.com/ayu_19980408/sta...153968129?s=21 |
What happened with her and her dancer? TA message + insta post
|
I'm so grieved by this. I always love his insight and friendliness. ;( He was so special to this community.
|
Ayu's new entry seems kinda random... she talks about how Max never gave up on her when she was younger. Did people say a lot of things about the younger dancers she chose?

昨日は女子ダンサーズのリハ最終日でした!みんな本当に泣けるくらい毎日頑張ってくれました👏 ✨ そしてリコ、なつかちゃん素晴らしい作品を創ってくれてありがとう🙏🙏🙏 次はいよいよバンドさんも入り全体通しリハーサルが始まります‼️ 最高の夏の一夜を目指して💪✨ #anation #8月26日 |
Back to hayasaki talk:
:no No, this can't be. hayasaki-kun passed away... :vsad Wow, I'm saddened by this news. This is heartbreaking. He passed away because of leukemia. A group of cancers that usually begin in the bone marrow and result in high numbers of abnormal white blood cells. His last Instagram stories were in the hospital, probably for the attempted leukemia treatment. hayasaki-kun was really one of our favorites in the AHS community. Very devastating to hear. Rest in peace, hayasaki-kun - he will surely be missed. :cry Spoiler:

wait, what?? those are all her new female dancers?? :shakehead:shakehead :thud:thud:thud |
^^aren't most of these just for a-nation, though?
|
Maybe is for W choreography?
|
Dear god, all these people are the new dancers?
this is too much... |
A WARNING new gang-b... uhhh grouphang? :D
|
If those are all the female dancers but she only accepted the three other new male dancers, it's probably for a special performance since she did say she was going to try something new at a-nation. Either way i hope she hasnt been getting many negative comments from fans though, there's a way of being critical without being hurtful.
|
I guess all the TA entries 'reacting' are about the dancers then. Seems she's not going to post anymore about it however.
|
^ It seems at least partly that way. It's hard for me to completely understand them (spoken Japanese is more my forte) and I don't really keep up with what Japanese fans say about her though, so it's hard for me to know the context. In her last couple of posts, she talks a lot about Max and that he's the only person who ever believed in her, TA, the stage, singing, etc., is the only place she has ever felt like she belonged. It is literally her entire life. She doesn't want TA to stop being a safe place to express herself, is what I got out of it.
What I don't like though is that she apologized again for hurting everyone in TA and then "running away" to America and that she considers it a mistake. I don't even understand why that's something she should need to apologize for. (actually I do because I lived in Japan for so long, haha; I just completely disagree with the mentality.) Totally different tidbit, but she does mention she is doing voice training as well. |
Quote:
I guess past is past Ayu, no need to apologized so hard now but i think thats the way in japanese culture in the Ig video looks like theres going to be flailing dancer (the new one) again and wailing Ayu haha :o |
Had my roommate search around twitter and stuff
He said people were complaining about Pei drinking and smoking despite only being 19. (20 is the legal age in Japan) Also TA were complaining that they’re supporting her yet DVD footage is uploaded online. |
^
Which one? Saw some performances on the chinese site, well what can people do, it is 2018 and internet is everywhere. Ayu and her staffs cant totally prevent it from happening |
^ I think it’s just general DVD footage, not one in particular. But not sure.
|
^If they are annoyed there are leaks online, they are a bunch of assholes cuz she can't control it.
If they are complaining about the trailer, they are a bunch of assholes as it shows almost nothing and its used to help her selling. Conclusion: bunch of assholes. |
^ Pretty much.
The posts are a bit all over the place but kind of go back and forth between thanking Max, equating her experience as a teenager with the new dancers, apologizing to TA, and thanking TA for being the only other people than Max who have believed in her. |
Too many dancers? Are they fans who attend her lives or just watch DVD and such?
I saw people with uchiwas plastered with pictures of dancers on one side and ayu on the other. I heard people shouting their names during performances and cheering for them as well. So how come suddenly it's too many, is it because their favorites won't be in the spotlight anymore? I get it that sometimes the stage is too crowded and I'd prefer just her on stage, but gosh stop being hypocrites... |
That photo of Ayu and all of those girls makes it look like she’s starting her own idol group :laugh
|
It would be near impossible to control online leaks, and honestly I'm hoping the concerts will be uploaded soon so I can see them. I support Ayu as much as I can buying cds, concert blurays, and recently going to her concert, but for the 2 box sets + overseas shipping is way out of my budget at the moment. Though I can also understand the frustration of paying for something and then having other people get it free.
And speaking of the box sets, I hope with future releases there are more options for those who just want to buy the concerts, and not all of the extra things, though now that they've done it with these plus previously Made in Tokyo, it seems that's how they'll continue. I don't mind when it's the TA concerts, because that makes sense, but when they make her main tours or countdowns so expensive to get, it's annoying. |

I just read Timmy's post about Hayasaki and his condition. I hope his family and friends are given strength during this ordeal :(

Quote:
It's not like if she's in Japan, her fans can go and meet her. If she has a TV performance or concert or whatever, she flies to Japan from overseas, what's the big deal? Communications with her Japanese staff, composers, etc can be done online. Or do her Japanese fans absolutely need her to be in the same country they are to feel better? |
^ Pretty much. Jpop is so weird in that fans feel a sense of entitlement and ownership over their artists. And even weirder because the artists go along with it (most of the time). It was a betrayal when she married a foreigner not once but omg twice and then deigned to move elsewhere. It’s ridiculous.
