She doubted whether she should continue as Koda Kumi. Firstly because she has such a busy schedule. But also, because her husband got slandered when she announced her marriage. She gets slandered a lot and her family (husband+child) would probably get slandered too just for being associated with her. She felt her family would get hurt because of her. But when she voiced her feelings, her husband encouraged her to continue. He wanted her to continue to shine as Koda Kumi.

edit:
More stuff:
- She first started thinking of Koda Kumi in the third person when releasing Butterfly.
- After childbirth, her husband dieted with her (to support her).
- She says, in life, it's easy to just press 'reset' (as if you're in a game), but she wants to continue never giving up and to continue walking forward. It's difficult to balance her private life and her career as Koda Kumi, but she hopes she will be able to. She wants to continue singing.
Awwww ;-; People have no right to slander them, they're happy. >:C Kenji really is a great guy, especially for Kuu! He seems to really care for her a lot. It just shows when it comes to herself, Kuu puts up with the slander and keeps going forward without changing, but when it affects her family she is so caring to even give up her dream for them. <3
