If she's going to be playing ayu accurately, she really needs to bring it in that department. But again, maybe ayu was stiff performing live back then, too. I'm still excited to see more, though!
I agree. I didn't think she was charismatic at all. A lot does come down to the script though. Like that scene where she first meets Max, her charisma is supposed to be catching his eye, but the delivery of her lines is just so stiff and stilted like she were literally reading off a script page.
