It was bad, all over the place. Now she seems to have gotten her techniques and breathing into the right place and it flows naturally, without being an absolute mess, it's gorgeous!
I don't know the terms so maybe someone else can help me out here. I think we are talking about two different things. What do you call the technique Enka singers use to make that "wailing" vibrato? I do see their jaws moving a little, although the sound is not entirely produced by moving their jaws. It sounds like Ayu is trying to do that.
