Tu-Ka終了 ?稿者：masa 引用 ３?のTu-Kaカタ?グが店頭に並んでしましたが、表?は _ゆでは_りませんでした。 先?の表?の内容からも終了が予想出?ましたが、本?に終 わっちゃいましたね。 ３年間お疲れ様。 No.4759 2003/03/02(Sun) 23:36 So the roundup issue on Feb 03 is the last one... YOU know what to do. Source: http://tw.club.yahoo.com/clubs/Japan_ayu Has been clarified that her VISEE contact stays... |
Her Contracts?
|
what do you mean?
|
This is almost impossible... if this is true, it would be an EXTREMELY dumb thing to do on BOTH of those company's parts. They wouldn't be able to find anyone to replace Ayu as a spokesmodel. I hope this isn't official >P
|
WHOA!! Thats some crazy **** there!
|
Kawai, can you please explain? Can you please translate or something 'cause we have no clue what you're talking about.
By the way (even though I have no idea what this news story is) are you sure this is a reliable source? |
cries........ :;;;;;;;v___v.;;;;;;;.......
TU-KA... Visee... you guys must be fools to let ayu go!!!! >________< Please tell me this isnt true! |
tu-ka & visee have both been using ayu as their cm spokeperson from a long long time...being an ayu fan..i'm sad to see their drop the contract with ayu...but in terms of a business viewpoint..itz reasonable that they wanna use someone else to sell their product...if they wanna keep their consumer feel fresh bout their product..also since ayu's image is chaning...it maynot fit with theirs..eg ayu used to be super cute and first started out being visee model, now ayu's image is more mature and womanly..visee may reconsider if it fits with their product image (just a guess)
|
Ending contract with Ayumi? Thats a pretty silly move there. Can we get a translation please?
|
If this is actually true than Visee and Tu-ka are fools.
|
wow!! thats sad...I cant believe they ended it with her...I can't believe they let her go, if that is true....aaawww...*sigh*
|
It's definately over? This really does seem like an unbelievable move by Tuka and Visee especially since Ayu seems like a veteran spokesperson/spokesmodel for them. A translation would definately be helpful.
|
ayumi is such an influential person, why would any large company want to let her go?
|
Well not every person loves ayu. Maybe they wanted to make a change....It sounds odd though. Anyway it might be that ayu's contract was signed to last until this year so all that is needed to do is to remake the contract who knows....
|
That seems a bit hard to believe, but if it's really true, those companies are making a BIG mistake! To exclude Ayu will cost them millions in the end, so hopefully, this isn't totally true...
|
I will miss the Tu-ka advertisments...
|
Maybe the contract was just up and they couldn't afford her anymore. :shrug
I will definitely miss the Tu-ka ads also!!! They were usually so cool! |
yea, its ridiculously sad to see this happen, but I totally agree with Mimika when they said why the companies dropped her. It's only business and Ayu might have several other options open up to her. You never kno.
|
It's hard to believe two entirely seperate companies would drop their same spokesperson at the same time when she's at the hieght of her career. It doesn't make sense. I don't believe it.
|
Has anyone thought that maybe Ayu doesn't want to continue the contracts? Don't you think it odd that both Tuka and Visee are dropping Ayu? Ayu has endorsed both for a long time, and maybe she's tired of it. It's time for her to move on. And who's to say she won't pick up another company? She definitely doesn't need their money anymore.
|
I'm sure that Ayu's got much "shelf life" in her and could still pull off the success she's had with other companies. Maybe biscuitgirl's right and she just wants to do something else, or she just wants to take it easy after doing so many concerts. Whatever it is, she'll quickly rise up just as she did when she first started :)
|
No...don't... i will miss the cms...:weep dont stop... i still want to continue to see ayu's cms...

definitely miss the Tu-ka ads.....and Visee........strange
|
but i liked visee n tu-ka's cms...
|
it seems rather silly...or maybe they can't afford to have Ayu as spokesperson anymore...
they should drop Kyoko Fukada 1st..haha..no offence to Kyoko fans.. or maybe they're affected by the Thailand rumours or all the recent rumours that aren't on Ayu's side... her popularity has certainly dropped recently... |
Ayu still has Boss, Morinaga, and Panasonic. That's 3 companies right there! She's so busy with her show and everything, I'm sure Ayu is just trying to free up a little of her time.
|
haha...i will miss the pics....maybe she will get w/ some new company....or maybe her very own ^^;;
|
Yea, you're probably right Biscuit. She's might be trying to free up some time. She's always working so hard and working non-stop. So i think it's a good idea for her to have more free time!
|
The last boss CM she made was in August. The last Panasonic was the Dockin' MD.
She has plenty of free time from those companies. I still personally don't believe this news. |
It really would make sense for Ayu to drop Tuka and Visee since there's many things going on at once, yet Ayu has been the key to their sucess for a while now. It's nearly pointless for the 2 companies to get rid of her unless she requested it to happen.
|
this msg is mainly about ayu's not on the catalogue of tuka for this month
remember, this is just some unofficial msg from some bbs |
Please note that VISEE already clarifies that they will still continue to appoint Ayumi to promote their products in upcoming CMs.
Currently there are HI-CHEW and Panasonic who appoints Ayumi. Guess that Ayumi might be appointed by some other new companies. |
I love All of Ayu's CM's
I hope the rumors aint true. |
Me too... so sad...
|
So Ayu will still make Visee cms? Is that right?
|
i wish condolence for visse and TU-KA if this rumors are true...
TU-KA, Visse, u gonna get doom... |
Yeah....
|
*confused*. . . so Ayu isn't on this month's Tuka cover? That doesn't necessarily mean that she has quit Tuka altogether unless she doesn't appear on anymore covers in the near future. If I understand correctly, she is still in Visee, Panasonic, and HiChew. Since this is all uncertain, shouldn't "Rumor" be added to the title?
|
If Ayu dropped them, you guys are probably right about the scheduling thing. Endorsing five companies could get time consuming. If anyone can confirm this let us know.
|
nooooo~~~
i like all her Tu-ka stlyes... i especialli love her Visee ones~ she looks so pretti in them |
Found this at A Crea for XX
"It is confirm that AYu is no longer be the spokewoman for TU-KA as the new monthly phamplet front cover page are 松本人志 san ＆桜井裕美 san. Official site 'Ayu’s Gateway' has been closed." Their news is highly reliable, so I would assume this is true. |
Tu-ka has changed their spokeperson officially......itz now Matsumoto Hitoshi (a famous comedian and also host of Hey!Hey!Hey!) and Sakurai Yumi
see: http://www.tu-ka.co.jp/news/release/030306.html |
Oh man....But thnx for the news guys:wave
|
oi! Nutter! Tu-ka is stupid enough to chang thier spokes person. I hope thier sales drop because of the change!
|
Has been clarified that her VISEE contact stays...
|
i find it very stupid move... anyway i dun see other singers or stars in japan having the looks, eyes, and prettiness as good as ayu + her fame... too bad for the 2 companies i shall say....
|
YAY for Visee!!!:hat
|
Wow, I can't beleive Tu-ka made that girl their new spokeswoman. Ayu is a million times prettier than her.
|
Yah..Agree
|
It may still have been Ayu's decision. Haven't Tu-ka sales been doing poorly, anyway? I'm not sure.
I'm just glad Ayu will still be doing Visee. I like their ads and cms better than Tu-ka, anyway. |
It's not the "End of the world" is it? I hope Ayu will use her free time away from tu-ka to make her songs even better. I prefer one very awesome song from Ayu than million cms from her :P

Still, it's a shame that her contract is no more with Tu-Ka |
i'd wonder why tu-ka wanna end their contract w/ayu
if i lived in japan.. i would stop using a tu-ka phone! |
Me too... Biscuitgirl... can u help me to make a cool sig... thnx..
isit by e-mailing u or pm u will do? |
Sure. Just email me or pm me! :D
|
As odd as the move was, it probably was Ayu's decision instead of Tuka's since she as a great contributer to their sales. It would be stupid for them to put her aside so most likely Ayu chose to quit Tuka. Much luck to the other girls chosen to be their spokesperson, even though I doubt they'll be able to fully replace Ayu.
|
Maybe Ayu had a conflict with one of the Tuka people or media people. Hopefully we will find out some more info later.
|
what!!
this is sad.. but who know what happen next? we should think in postive way. Maybe there are lots of new product that racing to get AYU in their CM. "2 down, 1000 to go" |
hey i heard tuka was voted one of the worst mobile phone service provider in terms of quality etc etc .. is it true?
|
hmm... Since tuka sales are doing so poorly.. then maybe they can't afford to hire Ayu anymore. Per CM salary is 1 million yen or something right?
Maybe... just a thought! i still think it'z kinda sad for ayu's contract to end w/Tuka~ but... perhaps she'll be better off |
