I don't understand why we should try to find bad things to say when we just don't see those. Stans for these three are similar to Ayu stans who feel that Ayu makes flawless music. That's all.
But ku has had moments, many, where I feel she is capable of better. Having taste in Kumi is not an offense, but it's like the music comes secondary to the image she portrays. People seem to place more fandom in HER rather than her material, and because they feel so passionate about HER then the product is always seen as flawless not because it actually is, but because it is a product of a PERSON who they see as FLAWLESS.
