She has fans of all ages, but most are in their teens and 20s.

At least the promo for Blue Bird is already looking better this time around in terms of the magazines she will be in. We'll have to find out from soysaucestar though about any promotion down on the street such as billboards, promo on vid screens, posters in the subways etc., because like I said there really wasn't any for Startin. So much so that if you hadn't watched Ayu on Music Station, you probabaly didn't know that she had a new single coming out.

Also, if I can just backtrack a bit. Earlier it was mentioned that Ayu is still Avex's priority because she had the higher tour and PV budgets. Normally I would agree 100% with that, but if you look at the PVs for Startin' and Born to Be, they have a relatively lower budget. I mean, compare those two PVs to Ladies Night and Rainy Day and it is obvious which videos had the higher production values - and those vids were album tracks! And then about the tour thing, we can't really judge that now until Koda goes on her next tour.

btw, this is a fun discussion.
