What do you think of Ayu's crying?

I'm just asking this innocently so please do not jump all over me *cringes*


So what do you think? I mean as in her tours mostly...as most of the time in videos it is fake.

Do you like it?
Do you think it's real?
Is it annoying? (ouch)


Now these aren't my opinions...I'm just asking in general. I personally think it's sweet...but I just want to get other people's take on it.


Also, sorry if there's already a thread like this. I wasn't able to find anything but I could've overlooked it.

I don't know if I would say it's fake, but I don't look forward to it while watching a tour. It doesn't bug me when she does cry though.

I like it when she's actually crying and not fake crying. I think she's fake crying whenever she moves her head around and reaches for shuya and he dances. I like when it's genuine, like her performances of Memorial address, MY ALL, untitled ~for her~, teddy bear @ cdl 09-10, Sunset @ at09, etc.

I don't like it at all in the special screens like with HANABI @ AT08

But I do love it when she cries when she's singing a song ♥

When she is crying for real, my heart breaks because you can so tell when it's real, and she looks so sad I just want to hug her and cry She looks so sweet when she's crying Her fake crying is not as heartfelt and doesn't make me burst into tears, but it doesn't annoy me

i think when she perform and cry, i think its real, because most of her lyrics is sooo emotional...and i think it's important for a singer sing a song very emotionally...

for a video or PV, yeah...i think it's fake, but i don't think she use a fake eyesdrop, i think its her real tears, she acted it out...and i think she did a good job on it

I hate fake crying: clutching chest and letting the fake tears flow during the dances with Shuya as people above mentioned.

I think she is gorgeous when she cries in earnest, as like in walking proud @ AT05. She really doesn't need to fake it too. Everyone can see she is an emotional wreck by the end of her shows

agreed,

but i'd not say that i hate it but i'm like "why you have to do that Ayu,i want your real sincere tears from your heart "

yes,i miss the time when shes singing Who and shes crying that's really touched me and i'm crying when i watch that,like Dome Tour 2001,Stadium Tour 2002 and AT05 but now seems like everybody want to cry with her on the stage,i mean the dancers and sometimes its just like a must thing to do before they end the show and i dont really like it

when she's really crying while singing,i'm ok with that,in fact thats what i want,the singer who really put the emotion into a song.

in the PV like Days,i know she really trying to do it like real,and she did a good job

I only like it when it's real but when it's fake I just get annoyed.

My favorite cry was when she was singing HEAVEN in (m)u tour, I cried too.

Her "fake crying" is alright... I don't mind. As long as she is showing off her feelings and the feelings of the lyrics, etc.

But I do love and sometimes cry along too when she cries while singing and its very obvious that it is real.


For example, I did not cry at all during her ballads performances in AT09 (GREEN/Days), but I indeed cried for when she performed End roll in AT08... seeing her crying for real to that song was just too touching.

It's really touching when she cries obviously for real, and her fake crying doesn't bother me if I'm alone, but makes me feel a bit awkward if I'm watching it with someone.

Seeing her really crying makes me cry, often because the song or whatever she's saying really would hit me, and sometimes you can understand where she's coming from with her tears. You can understand them, you know?

Even in PVs and such, I really do think she's crying in most of them. Since she has so much feeling even in her PVs, I really think they are her true emotions, even if she has to call upon sadder things to be able to get the tears to start flowing.

So when there's all real emotions in the performances and in the songs and PVs, then I have no problem with it, it tends to stir emotions up in me too.

On stage it doesn't bother me very much, but of course there is a bit of a difference when she's forcing it and when she isn't.

I don't like when I don't know is she's really crying or not, like in the ballad section at Arena 09.

when it's real it's gorgeous and heartbreaking like end of concerts, A Song is born @ Stadium Tour 2002, Memorial address/teddy bear @ AT 03-04/CDL 09-10 etc

BUT when it's her fake crying.. oh God save me. it's just tacky, cheesy, irritating, bad, stupid-looking, and overall just stop it Ayu. PLEASE.

ah really agree with you..

fake crying really BOTHERS me.. she did it a lot at AT09, it seems like she's trying hard to squeeze a tear..

but I do really like it, when it's real.. like.. err I forgot when it is, the one she sang hanabi? the one where she wore a headpiece with flags print..

I can understand that she cries while performing some kind of songs, specially those with sad lyrics that really mean something to her. But I find that, only sometimes, she overreacts a little. Just a little. I don't mean that her crying is fake, but some gestures with her hands while crying are totally unnecesary, as the oversniff. I think she doesn't fake the crying, but she makes sure that everyone notices. I don't think that is wrong anyway, and maybe she doesn't even notice that she makes those gestures.
