[Blog] Maro & Ayu are dating according to his blog entry

[ExodusUK]

I wonder why Shu-ya was her date to the afterparty~

Well...it's her life. I can't change anything, so I will congratulate to the new couples and I hope this will last longer than her previous ex-boyfriend（Tomoya Nagase）

Every opinion on his personality right now is. We know he is professional at work and that's it. "It's my opinion" is no argument validating anything, some people have the opinion "all jews should die", does that make it valid and free from criticism just because it's an opinion?

You put my thoughts into much better words than I could. We are all free to have our opinions, but to throw out the comment that "Maro is not suitable for AYU in this kind of serious relationship. He's still immature" is a bit much when we don't know the man at all. And we don't know what kind of man is "suitable" for Ayu either...
I didn't mean to say you're not allowed to have an opinion, あゆちゃん, but your comment came across as passing judgement on Maro, which we really can't do when we don't know him. Even if we get see more of him through public appearances and such, he still may not be the same person in public as he is in private. Whether he is suitable for Ayu is something Ayu herself decides, and our opinions on the matter don't really count for much.

Could be an avex decision to have him there since the fans seem to like him? They probably didn't know the AyuxMaro news would break yet when they decided to take Shu-ya for that.

On another note, how many times has it worked out between artists and their dancers...? Omg, what if this is the start of Ayu's "Britney 2007" stage!? Lol.

Well, I hope she just continues to be a serious artist. I feel like she never used to be all about the personal gossip but lately, that's all you ever hear about Ayu is news / rumors / gossip about her personal life that suspiciously comes to surface right around releases...

I agree. Completely.

[AyuHamasaki01]

Aw, I'm happy for them.

[Andrenekoi]

@ExodusUK
I still believe they knew each other before Love Songs era, but this is just my conspiracy theorist self

@isthisLOL?
I believe Ayu and Shu-ya are just really good friends after all, someone she trusts, makes her feel safe and who she enjoys the company...

[Bigtop]

Not even aware this happened - and it actually happened while I was watching Sayuri Sugawara's "Nico Chao!"...

Well, congratulations to them. Let's see if this relationship is going to stick longer than Mannie or Tomoya...

[Zeke.]

Maybe Ayu will record that Annie song:

"To Maro, To Maro, I love ya, To Maro" Lol.

I love you!

[ayu_fantasy]

I wonder if she will have babies with maro... She didn't get pregnant when she's with nagase or mannie... If she have babies now, that will be so cool

^Agree. Maro's gonna be the center of attention and all hell will break loose the second he's not -.- Ayu'll have hard time to cope with everything in the middle of the circus. Just hope our gyrl is happy, tho <3

[primavera♥]

This is fun news to come home to lol

Seriously though, I'm happy for them. That's super cute

[CeReSu]

I'm so happy! Maro is a talented dancer, I really like him!
So I wish them the best!!

Yeah, again, Ayu says she likes to keep her work and love affairs separate, yet she's dating Maro - one of her dancers - and telling a weekly magazine about it. She said the same **** about Mannie too. Nobody's buying that anymore, Ayu. Separate is what you did with Nagase. Seriously, did she even mention anything about it other than the fact that they broke up?

And speaking of Mannie, now that this is going on, doesn't it make the whole marriage thing all the more weird? I mean, she goes from suddenly falling in love with a foreign co-star and getting married to him and divorced a year later, and her next love (har har), is a dancer that's been there for years.

I thought a tabloid was gonna break the story? That is NOT telling a magazine about it, that is a magazine finding out and publishing it.

Oh, I didn't see tabloid. That's different then. Still, they had the option to deny it just like every other story if she really wanted to separate things.

also @ people who are suspicious of it being a publicity stunt... MAYBE, it could be. but to say that every year she hsa one is ****in stupid. like lol.

publicity stunts are supposed 2 help your career and none of them - except maybe this one - helped her career at all. going deaf in one ear made her less desirbale as a spokesperson in ads. marrying a foreigner didn't help her reputation. divorcing a forigner didn't help either - LIKE COME ON do u RELI THINK thos are publicity stunts do u C where th LOGIC doesnt LINE UP

She still shouldn't have used him if there were feelings there or they had started a relationship. I mean, bring in Shu-ya - he played the love interest many times before.

Also, it's not always positive publicity a celebrity uses to get attention. The fact is, negative or positive, people will talk about it. People will pay attention and want to see the "product" they appear together in or the music talking about their relationship. I mean, Party Queen's image was a complete mess for Ayu's career. She went about making a mockery about how people may portray her but it didn't come off that way to the general public and just made her look more like a joke. Party Queen was wrong in every aspect at a critical point in her career. It will forever be looked back upon as the turning point of everything.

Once again, her sales are down, she has no number one album this year, and it's getting down to the wire. again is the only album to keep her record going. And honestly, each time she has a release lately, she has some kind of news item that shocks people. Starting with Love songs, continuing with Party Queen, and now again. And she needs it this time.

I don't want to be a downer or whatever, but Im starting to believe the critics now... it's really sad. But, it's too suspicious.

I agree actually. No one is saying she is getting married and divorced to sell records but I think the timing of the news coming out is the issue; they didn't just get together yesterday, they've been dating for a while if I understand the article correctly and we just found out. The idea is to put her back in the limelight somehow and this sort of news might do it since much of the general public doesn't know she has a new release out (or that she still has a singing career lol). If you think about it, it isn't anything earth shattering like her marrying or divorcing etc but ultimately its promo for the lazy. (but why the fake kiss in you and me, then?)
They're cute together that's for sure. And Maro has yet to ruin every PV he's in unlike a certain someone lol
