I really can't wait for we are the queen in full..

I'm not sure with Black or White part on her facebook post..maybe there will be two setlist??? or different costume set?

I think the article is about how slow the ticket sales is and another rumor about free ticket at her arena tour...well..

Thought they talked about the TA site.
Looks like only the final on 11/17 is sold out as this date is excluded.

They also mentioned at the end that her Music Station performance was criticised.

Cool!

Seems like there'll be different members appearing on different days, and I'm assuming different songs.

And not to nitpick but remember only TA members can apply for tickets...expecting there to be constant full attendance of only TA members at every date is kind of irrational.

Hmm, surprised to see bad sales after last year's sold out dates.

It's pretty bad comparing to the SONGS one (although that one was pitch-corrected), definitely not one of the best.
I'll tell this much - I enjoyed Utada's performance, but with Ayu it's always about surviving her performance, rooting for her, being nervous if she does OK... It's never about enjoying beautiful vocals because she usually can't deliver them.

Her voice is always changing, I don't know why this happens to Ayumi. Like some netizens mentioned, that high pitched voice of 2006 is not here anymore. fairyland this year at a-nation was like sung by another person.

Ayu is at the limit, but I don't think people know.
After all, she never takes a vacation.
She needs time to recover your inner voice, but she can't, because it is using the work as a source to escape their problems...

sadly many of these comments are true and somehow i got the feeling people didn't say these things to trash her.. it felt more like this is how they feel

that Duty comment is super sad

many people commenting her voice, that might be the biggest reason for the fanbase loss

Like people said, a lot of those comments aren't mean, they're true. It's not as if Ayu ever was a great vocalist, but back then she had a singing style that was very emotional, not to mention that Japanese people love high and nasal voices. To be honest, me too. Furthermore, her she completely changed the way she performs. When I remember the first TV performances I watched of Ayu, it was her and her band and she was focusing on the music. Now it's her plus 20 other people and she's focusing on the show.
I don't know, I'm a big fan of Hotel Love songs and I think the musical show style with so many dancers works very well for the show, but somehow since a few years she isn't able to have a concept for just ONE thing. When she does something, she has to do it for everything else also until she finds something else she's obsessed with.
People simply stopped to like her when the girl who was singing her heart out disappeared for the diva. It would be much wiser if she wouldn't do those grand performances on a TV show and would save those for concerts and festivals and would focus more on her voice.

If Ayu had performed on TV like she performed "Heaven" or "Beloved" on the 2015 TA tour then I'm sure many people would fall in love with her.

Lol that one is my favorite. I had to laugh so hard.

I'm not sure I understand the comment about allowing people to make pictures and taking group photos with fans are a bad thing. Why is that a problem?

Apart from that the comments merely seem to me like opinions as everyone is entitled to have. Maybe I don't know anything about how a good voice is supposed to sound or maybe I'm only an ignorant little fan girl, but I like her current voice. And she still makes me feel her songs, even with a different sounding voice. That's enough for me. But well, that's only my opinion.

I enjoy her current vocal as well..definitely not as much control as before...but I like it now than before. I know I'm being stubborn but I still feel that she did well on Evolution. Especially the chorus and wow yeah part. Usually she running out of breath on the chorus and divide the chorus lyrics into many parts which is bad, but she did that part smoothly on the latest Music Station and wow yeah part is so powerful.
