It's great if you don't feel that disconnection.
But the point I was trying to make is that what I have been noticing over the last few years is more and more people in Japan expressing a feeling of disconnection with her as compared to before. I think a lot of it has to do with when you became a fan too, people who have gotten into her more recently tend to feel the same way you do maybe because it is during this time period that you got interested in her? (correct me if I'm wrong) But the people in Japan have been there from the very start and have went through all the changes with her to where she is now - in that respect I can easily understand why a large chunk of her supporters now feel a sense of disconnection as compared to before.

Plus, who wants to watch someone just stand there and sing <_<;;; Maybe it's because I haven't seen her older ones, but I don't think Ayu does "simple" concerts (anymore...) because she's not a "simple" artist. She's AYU hahahaha

Ayu's never really done "simple" concerts - the simplest is TA Live (and I actually think that is one of her best ones). However, before there was a better balance between the performance and theatrical elements.

But if you've watched the other artists on the show, especially the ones who have major noteriety like Ayu (mr. children and southern for example) seriously,
everyone in the audience was into their performance. In one of the shots during Ayu's performance you can seriously see a girl checking her cell phone - I kinda had to lol at that.
