I feel the same way. She has very beautiful skin and I feel that tattoo is an imperfection. It's just...so big and right smack on the right shoulder where everyone can see it. Everytime I see it I feel regretful she got it. It just doesn't fit her right in my eyes. Maybe this is just uncommon among female artists...I don't know many Japanese artists sporting tattoos; female ones at least. Ayu happens to be one of the biggest ones (and my favorite) too so it's awkward for me.

In the end it was a decision she made. She was also young once (and still is). I think everyone makes some radical choices when they are young (like going skydiving...or getting a tattoo for the matter lol). Even if she no longer wanted that tattoo she had no choice I think. To get it removed by laser surgery would result in something worse than the tattoo itself. Leaving the tattoo by itself wouldn't make a lot of sense seeing as how she broke off her relationship. Even if she's moved on, that tattoo would say otherwise. I guess by logic, she altered it to a 10th anniversary logo...killed two birds with one stone.
