Ayuready might stop in september

[I love Ayu]

I just saw my first "Ayu ready?" episode for the 1st time ever a week ago, and I loved it But to keep a show interesting for over 50 eps, it can't be easy. And you'd run out of guests very fast So if that's the way it has to be, then so be it...but honestly, I don't really like Ayu's recent singles, and I wish she would just release less singles but very high quality instead of lots of singles that are just "OK" or not very good...

The beach house closing isn't anything! It was never intended to stay open, from the time it was built it was said that it was closing the end of August. It's just a summer thing.

People are getting all worried about it when that has nothing to do with its business or how popular she is.

And forgiveness can always pick up, it hasn't even been out a week yet.

I like "Ayu Ready" but it's not as interesting as it used to be. Also, I have to agree that Ayumi is overexposing herself. For the most part, "Ayu Ready" seems to be a launching pad to promote herself.

I didn't know it got low ratings. I've only watched little clips, since I don't undertsand Japanese (yet!) So I can't say much, but I do agree that it wouldn't hurt Ayu to remove herself a liiiiiiiiitle bit from the public eye. I mean, her face is everywhere in Japan.....it's true that there can be "too much of a good thing." Too much Ayu could ruin her

well though may be ayuready's not that good..
but some part of it, like the duet of who... with maki goto is very interesting...
my friend who's a big fan of morning musume interested to ayu's songs because of that duet

well... but if the rating is that low.. so let it be

[lizziemeister]

yea- so many ayu things seem to be either ending, cancelled, or stopped..

[xiaohui]

i think it would be better if ayuready stop so ayu can focus on her music and make much better songs

I only saw one episode anyway.. the one with those two ladies with the big u-know-whats.

Maybe if FujiTV actually broadcasts it to the US/ other countries and ADD SUBTITLES, the ratings would go up.

Here's my thought on every AyuReady show (no offense). First some guest shows up, Ayu and the guest talk, they eat something, and perform some song.

I'm guessing Ayupans are next...

Well I know that Popjapan TV airs on Fri at 9:30 P.M. on Ch73 in New York.. which is only Sony artists (including hyde and Laruku).. It would be an excellent idea to broadcast it in the U.S... with subtitles!!!

I think some of the artists on AyuReady influenced Ayu to try different styles, thus we get stuff like ourselves and Greatful days.. I don't know if that's good for Ayu or not.. but I am sad that it might end, but it should end in October, then that'll be a year! And release the episodes on dvds/vhs.

you people are making this big.. as for the house.. it was a summer thing.. like some1 has said.. we will just have to wait if its really gonna end ayuready but not so long ago.. i saw in ayu ready official site it had really good rating..

I agree with most of your comments...
But I really love that TV show!
It's funny (although I don't speak japanese).
And I love to see Ayu more "naturally" - not just singing and dancing.
I mean, I saw her playing with her dog, playing table tennis, laughing until she fell from her chair, eating things she doesn't like, working on her Rainbow House and doing a lot of other funny things.
Things we would have never seen Ayu doing, without that show.
And now everything will be over soon??? Somehow really sad...

But if it will be for Ayu's best - than I have no problem with it.

Although Ayu Ready is amusing and may show a more relaxed Ayumi, the best Ayu footage is always backstage stuff when she's not wearing make-up and is just being her mellow self. Even on Ayu Ready, she's just acting. On one of the more recent episodes, I felt that her smile was really fake towards one of the guests.

[eikichi-sama]

yeah....maybe it's better fer Ayu, and let her to think about her solo concert that she never held in last few month...

[Ayu]

wat heartbreaking news

[PinkSock]

If the show is cancelled, it would be better for ayu's music career, but still... it is kinda sad. I enjoyed getting to hear her sing with other artists....
Though I don't think the ayupan show will be next.

[CRAZYBOAT]

For me, that's excellent news, i mean, ayu can dedicate most of her time to write and compose music.

She might lose some benefits as money, but it's her health is more impotatn.
