IMO, Koda is queen of releaseskanking.

Koda for the last 3 albums has had freaky-arse stuff.

You know, I'm an easy loving person and don't dwell on faults, so I couldn't really think of anything I dislike about Ayu on my own. But I must agree with this.... I wish Ayu released more goodies, if not for anything else, her albums. I feel like there isn't as much to look forward to compared to Kuu's albums for example.

[emi♡]

yey go releaseskanking...makes you happier to get an album.

I don't really hate anything about her...I wish she'd hurry up and get her ass to the U.S. though...

[CHE.R.RY]

^ If only that would happen........but it never will. Ayu even said herself she didn't want to come out with music in the US. I think it's mainly because she's got too much on her plate as it is.

[Namie]

^ I think she want to stay with whats is safe o__0

[Kikaru]

Or maybe until her English gets better?

But to be honest, how many Japanese or Asian artist actually gets successful in the US? Even the ones that speaks fluent English?

I don't like the fact that I can't go to her asian tour...does that count?

[emi♡]

well at least a tour...or a few concerts here and there...

I don't care if she comes out with music here, personally, I don't really want her to. I just want to actually see her in concert...she did say she would go anywhere people would listen.

[zoomzoom]

^ Yea, she shouldn't actually release anything here, but if she did a few stops in small/medium venues I think people would travel far from around the US to get a chance to see her.

I agree. I know I would. Hell of a lot cheaper than flight tickets...(I'm struggling with those as we speak).

[majrakun]

SHe would go anywhere people will listen? Then come over to Brunei, if she's only willing to have 5-10 audience, unless we have many more closeted Ayu fans here...

[Tiina]

(As she calls herself a product called Ayumi Hamasaki I think it's ok if ppl complain about stuff that's not really her "fault", like the prices of her cds etc. because that stuff is part of the "product")

Hate is too powerful word, I'd say I dislike few things about her:

- Her new music. I haven't listened her for a long time but I have listened her old songs a lot and I must say that they are way better than the new stuff. In the old songs you can hear emotions; despair, sadness etc. e.g when her voice goes high-pitched in the end of a sentence. But sadly most of the new song just sound plastic (IMHO). The music is good, her voice is good but they're empty.

- Her fake hair (wigs), nails etc. I like more genuine artists who are what they are, e.g those who don't change their appearance when releasing a rockish song and then back to something else when releasing a different kind of song (Talking 2 Myself vs. Glitter). And it's not just the appearance it's the whole imago. But since I only listen to her music and don't collect her pics, fanstuff or videos it really doesn't matter what I think about her appearance when the music is the most important stuff.

[mcluva420]

shes a little too dolled up. she doesnt look very natural..
and i hate it when some of her fans bash on other ppl..
shuya isnt rlly that attractive, and hes getting annoying
its weird when she has a big dress, and then suddenly strips into this "sexy" top or smthin. it reminds me of madonna, and i think its a little "skanky". no offense 2 madonna fans
and the fact that she "stole" namie amuro's title...the empress of jpop..

[z4520ft]

i dislikes (hate a little)
-the cover for (miss)understood album
-her hairstyle in last part of fated PV,kind of weird i think
-too many rock song in her latest,1 or 2 is enough and no more trance like LOVEppears
-no more CREA works
-sexy appearance in live concert
-frequently same dancers appearance in PV
-shu-ya as her main partner,his hairstyle never change for along time (i wonder if there's people commenting on this)
it's obvious she did something (a lot maybe?) to her face and i can accept that but why she's not doing the same for body? what i mean is she looks more like a mid-school student than a mature woman

[mimika]

^ talkin about shuya...yea he's cool and everything....but i'm tired of seeing him EVERY SINGLE TIME as her partner..whether it's a PV or a duet in her concert....I think she should give opportunities to other male dancers in the group

haha, it's pretty cool when maro actually play her concert "lover"... I duno, but i think he suits ayu better for such duet stuff....

Well, shuya is fine, but i think Maro is cooler...

Or that it's pretty much impossible to get to know her on a one-to-one level.

yes, i second that... ... It's too impossible to know ayu in person..

[visionfactory]

I hate the voice of Peco in Ayu concerts..

[love in music]

i don't like that sometimes she will scream in songs instead of singing them, and her lip pouts at times are annoying. and also that she doesn't release as fast anymore! but i still love her so much, some of her faults make me love her even more

Oh, for the lip pouting part, I think she couldn't control it... because when she talks, i realise that her lips are still pouting. That's why i think her lip might be naturally that shape. ....
Haha, I mean, no one would ever try to pout their lips while talking right??

Hmms, another thing i dislike about ayu is that she's too dominating?? I duno, but i don't quite like it....

Other than that i just love her humble personality, and being such an inspirational figure. She's so sweet and lovable too.... love you ayu!!!
