I remember I initially commented on this before, but at any rate, my views of Ayu did change quite a bit. While I had known about some of the struggles she faced around the time of A BEST, and learned about the ear infection when reading a news article, I wasn't aware of how she was so close to quitting, or that even with her ear infection, she continued to perform. Even when she fell and injured herself in the Dome Tour, she recovered and performed as if nothing ever happened. Not many artists that I know of would've continued so quickly, or be so determined to succeed. She's such a unique and awesome individual, and seems to make anyone she meets smile and feel great. While I'm sure she has her on and off days, she seems willing to work and it's the reason why I think she's so well known and successful.
