Ayu is creative in her lyrics, but Hikki's are more unique and varied...I think Ayu repeats the same things in her lyrics a lot...but that's just my opinion. As for composing...there's a reason Ayu stopped composing...because she was never really a composer in the first place and she probably found other people who she thinks can do a better job. Vocally, I think Hikki is a little better....but Ayu still has one of my favorite vocal performances of all time, ASFXX @ a-nation 2008. So...yeah....I'm not like saying she can't sing...considering she's deaf in one ear and not really a professionally trained singer, she's pretty phenomenal. Just look at a-nation 2009. All her vocals were good. As for creativity for performances....Ayu has hikki beat...all of Ayu's concerts are so creative. Well yeah...when it comes down to it I think its really hard to compare these two artists....since they're completely different...Ayu's more focused on selling an image and creating a great show...Hikki is more focused on making something she likes. They're both great...duh...otherwise how did they get as famous as they are x_x
