I want to believe that a collab would go well, but ayu's collabs are consistent letdowns, not because of Ayu, but because of the other artist. They either can't sing all that well solo (Tim), sound radically bad compared to Ayu (Naota), or try to mimic her singing style (JUNO).

I don't even consider BRILLANTE to be a collab. The dude is just doing back vocals. JJ Lin only composed the song and appeared in the PV, he's done a decent job with the composition. The Urata collabs which actually ended up on Ayu's cds are imo very good. I think the majority of collabs she has done do sound pretty good. They might not be the best songs in her discography, but do sound good.

If it was the other way around people would be saying she is trying to leech of someone else.

The only actual collabs are:

ANother song feat JUNO
Why feat JUNO
Why feat Naoya
What is forever love feat Naoya
Merry-go-round feat m-flo
NaNaNa feat Timmy
