I really like his works, and even if I didn't, I would still hate seeing people be like this. Everyone focuses on his bad photos, never his good ones, because well - it can't just be his and ayu's style to make those "horrible" pics, right? It's all his fault, it's all things that couldn't happen with another photographer, and yeah! It's really because he hates her, I see! He should make ayu stand like this instead!!!



And you said you wouldn't be bad about THAT? Can't we just conclude that this is a forum where we talk about what we hate about ayu, we bash everything that isn't perfect, and wish for her little-innocent-teen style to get back. But it just doesn't happen, CRY BABY, CRY!!!!!

Really, I get so MAD when I see people can really put so much energy in finding out why ayu does something, her fans doesn't like. Have you ever thought of this: ayu does normally have a lot to do with her releases, concerts and so on. Have you every thought the thought, that maybe ayu likes those photos? Then let's just HATE her for having another opinion about this photographer!

GO HOME AND CRY!!

I'm sorry if I/we offended you... it's just that I really am worried... the way things are going... how much further is she allowed to screw up now?

About her "liking" his bad photos... maybe she likes a few, but I highly doubt she even likes the Sunrise/Sunset covers. Ayu isn't a professional photographer who understands picture composition and all that, but she isn't blind. If she looks fug I'm sure she'll choose another photo or something. The fact that she didn't... just proves the whole gallery must be horrible then.

Oh also, the Mirrorcle World cover I put up... that was the specific one that looked fug to me, out of all the Mirrorcle World shots... she really was gorgeous in that shoot, and the Days/GREEN one, she looked great, though I wouldn't credit that to Kazu.

And oh I know "hate" is too strong a word, but I don't know what more appropriate word to use here... or maybe I'm just being sarcastic with the title

And yeah I think the biggest issue here is that

1) he's a hit & miss person. Perhaps it's better to work with once every 5 years or something... rather than working with him for like EVERYTHING.

2) What he wants from his models don't fit all of his models. Like what some of you have mentioned, Kuu CAN pull the fish lips, but Ayu can't. That's a fact. Though I wonder why Kuu still can have emotions on her face in the 3 SPLASH covers, while Ayu just looks dead and emotionless in the Sunrise/Sunset covers...
