It amazes me how stockholders are supposedly complaining about avex putting everything on her. She practically releases like a 'regular' artist now. We don't get a new single every 2.5 months anymore. It hasn't been that way for a long time. And I find it amusing how just a few months ago, when she threatened to leave with matsuura, and the stocks dropped. So apparently the stockholders do have a dependance on her as well.

And the Kose contract, who really cares at all. The new girl she was replaced by can't hold a candle next to ayu. I doubt ayu is very torn up about that at all. She's still the spokesmodel of Panasonic, which I'm sure grosses WAY MORE every year than Kose could imagine.

Avex put her where she is, there needs to be no "putting back into place." She's been at the top since forever, and the only way she'll diminish is if she quits. And I'm sure if reports like this continue, she might just give the stockholders a little more than what they wanted, if you know what I mean.

An intelligent response! I agree.
