lol, what a dramatic article.

Did articles about Ayu's decline in popularity be as dramatic as this? :p
I'm personally more of a casual listener, and I do like their music. Usually I don't really like Japanese boybands because at times they seem too cute but Arashi is great (and Jun Matsumoto is awesome in Hana Yori Dango haha

). I don't think their popularity is declining that much since they sell like hell even today. Of course, decline will happen eventually but it's ok I think.
