[pedronekoi]

I'm pretty sure she is aware that her career and music is only appreciated by her old fans nowadays. Her sound and image are far from youth's taste. And that's okay. The main issue is that her old fans are so nostalgic with her career that they have the need to compare her actual work to her golden era (fame-wise and voice-wise) all the time. That time will never come back, Japan was another country, the internet was still growing, Ayu was a different person, etc etc. So everytime people complains about her being not famous anymore, not beng respected as an artist anymore, being a joke and stuff like that is the same discussion about what could she do to change that. Honestly, she can't do a thing about it (and I'm sure she's not willing to do that). Japan won't love her again, she won't have a peak out of nowhere, that's the truth. As long as the fans keep supporting her, she won't be over...
