I do agree, I don't care about her age but I do understand why it does matter to some.
How relatable are the thoughts of a 35 year old woman for a 15 old girl? They are at totally different phases in their live. Girls might have had their first heartbreak but a woman might talk about marriage or children. Being relatable isn't the most important thing but it makes it easier for someone to appeal to the masses.
Btw I'm not saying young people can't listen to someone a lot older than yourself, I'm just saying younger people might like to listen to younger artists more.
Apart from that, I don't think the streak is that important anymore. She won't be able to secure it if she doesn't change the release date. I also believe it'll be easier for Ayu to just do what she wants to do from now on. She won't have the pressure of getting number own anymore. It is sad to loose something this impressive but I think she'll be relieved.
We shouldn't worry too much about her sales, I'm hoping for good songs and not good sales, but that's just my opinion
