Sky High 23rd March 2018 07:20 PM

Omg, she posted new pictures on instagram, girl is on fire :O

Lilly 23rd March 2018 11:21 PM

:laugh I laughed so much with the heart nipples

DevilHunter_04 23rd March 2018 11:56 PM

I love the pictures! I don't get people complain about "Diva Ayu" tho. Ayu's always been a diva and it's not like she's ever hid it so I don't get everyone's complaints about it.

truehappiness 24th March 2018 01:50 AM

I like diva Ayu when she's doing it right and this is basically it but lacks the usual effortlessness. I still love it though and I would take it any day over plain.

!Lawi! 24th March 2018 03:44 AM

I love the new pictures and I keep laughing at those ‘don’t force Timmy down our throats’ comments. Ayu isn’t forcing anything down anyone’s throats, she’s living her life and promoting sexual freedom via a person who happened to have composed great songs that fit her style. If you’re not happy with it, keep to studio album and stop polluting this forum.

Following Ayu’s career Close enough to even notice Timmy means you look for it = Ayu isn’t forcing it on you.

xLuna&1LOVE 24th March 2018 06:56 AM

I think it is the best drag I have ever seen Timmy in.

aliceshields 24th March 2018 07:44 AM

I do not mind the diva ayu, just hope no more pinkish princess look XP

Timmy’s heart-shape nipple very standing out 🤣

I don’t mind the pink stuff as long as it’s tasteful ie. STEP you/Ladies night from (miss)understood Tour.

This post is just as laughable. Promoting sexual freedom? Blah blah blaaah.:rolleyes
We have the right to voice our opinions. Just because you don't like them or disagree with them, doesn't make them "pollution".

!Lawi! 24th March 2018 09:25 PM

The fact that these opinions have been voiced for over 5 years with no evolution whatsoever in the “debate” makes them pollution. Open a Timmy complaining thread and keep the same three posts that appear on every other threads there. It’s like the surgery debate, except people actually act like victims because it ruins their experience. I can understand that people don’t like it, and I honestly don’t like his looks in most concerts, but it’s time to let go at this point, it is not going to change.

EndOfTheWorld 24th March 2018 09:51 PM

Well that's why the complaints keep coming up. A group of fans including myself, don't like Timmy. It's nothing personal against him he seems like a nice guy and he has made great contributions to Ayu's music but we are tired of him being Ayu's little sidekick/pet and the style of his costumes. If he would just step out of the spotlight and work behind the scenes and with the rest of the group, I think the complaints would go away. People feel like he is shoved down our throats because well quite honestly no one asked for him in the first place.:shrug
But you are right. Things won't change on either side. But expressing our disapproval is really all we can do about it.

I have to agree and especially the "Ayu's little sidekick/pet" part is so on point and is what bothers me the most about how Ayu is presenting Timmy. Saying Ayu would promote sexual freedom is laughable, when all she is doing is presenting Timmy as someone he clearly doesn't seem to be. He stated that he would never dress like that if it wasn't for Ayu. So Ayu basically presents Timmy as what Japanese people think gay men have to look like. Letting a gay men wear panties that almost make his genitals fall out (just because, you know, stereotypes) isn't sexual freedom, it's quite the opposite.
And I don't think not wanting to see so much detail when it comes to someone's genitals is too much asked for. If Ayu would let him wear something that covers his genitals, I at least wouldn't complain anymore.

Amalgam 25th March 2018 11:28 AM

^ your posts are so .... astounding. Wow.

Andrenekoi 25th March 2018 11:46 AM

Timmy is bad because he is the wrong kind of gay. Not against gays, but it's really bad when they don't look, you know, straight and masculine and discreet and not gay.

:P

Another day another round of people at AHS AHSing.

Katsuyuki012 25th March 2018 01:14 PM

Ayu changed her Twitter header. Looks obviously much better. But let's see how everyone's gonna react lol.

Half of ayu’s dancers are gay yet they aren’t presented as stereotypical gays. I believe you are off.
