Ayu: Anything Goes [XXV]
Wow. We've already reached thread #25 of a series that goes all the way back to the end of 2012. Almost six years!
Anyways, with the end of the year coming up, does it really make sense for me to watch multi-hour televised J-pop specials (Kouhaku, MSte Super Live, Japan Record Award, FNS, NTV Best Artist) if we don't even expect Ayu to be in any one of these anymore? It's getting a little bit too boring (we're tired of Johnny's and AKB48 material, and the latter, plus sister group Nogizaka46, we've had some key departures that have taken the lust away from those groups)... |

Well... I think since one CDL show for 31 Dec is already announced, there is no any chance ayu will attend Kouhaku. When was last time ayu was at winter FNS? Wonder why she stopped doing this

If Ayu wants to give people "a show" (which is why right now live>tracks) then maybe she feels the TV is too limited to do what she wants? And when she's on TV the comments are brutal I don't mind Ayu just "standing and singing" if she looks natural and happy but sometimes it looks like she's not moving because if she does she will lose focus or something. I only watch these shows for Ayu so if no Ayu, me no bother

Are you guys collecting any Ayu-related items?
I had a realization recently that I don't need to buy all Ayu singles and I don't need to collect Ayu stuff I have no use of because I won't listen to those singles anyway - I don't even have a player to play them on! And they're on Spotify, on my walkman, on my computer, on my other computer sooooo why bother? And also I was on ebay and thought "ummm instead of buying these Ayupans for 60€ maybe I could, you know, by food?" Maybe the problem is I'm too poor now |

I usually buy items that I will use. I wear my t-shirts and parka, use key chains and necklace
btw, I'm so disappointed with this item. I locked it to my phone case, and after 2 months of usage the A logo got damaged from metalic ribbon holder

I never use my ayu goodies because i'm afraid of them getting damaged lol
I used to wear her t-shirts but after multiple washes some started getting damaged so I just stopped, the only thing I can still use is her sports towels when I go to the gym

I don't own ayu goodies but I always use the ones I buy from Kuu. Don't know if both of them make their stuff with the same companies, but Kuu's goodies always have great quality ever since I started buying them (right now I have a mug in my office desk in front of me and just yesterday I wore a tee from her 15th anniv), and nothing got damaged or broke. Maybe nowadays ayu's goodies also have a better quality? I love wearing those shirts so I feel a bit sad you stopped wearing yours cause they got worn out |

^ I own 4 t-shirts of hers : Limited TA tour 2015, Limited TA tour 2016, Arena Tour 2016 and the t-shirt that came with the limited version of A BEST -15th anniversary Edition-
The two that have started to get worn out pretty quickly were TA tour 2015 and A BEST ones, you can clearly see that the design has started to crack on both of them and if you compare the A BEST one to the AT2016 one in the last picture you can see that the white fabric of the A BEST one has gotten yellowish lol Spoiler:
I used to wash them just like my normal clothes at 30°C, at the time my washing machine didn't have a "hand wash" cycle so maybe that's why they worn out so easily But I used to wear them only at home so I am fine with not wearing them anymore haha, i just switched to regular pajamas lol. EDT : Something just came to my mind now, I don't think I have ever thanked ~angel*ayumi~, thanks to you I saved 7 000¥ because I decided not to buy the DEFEND TOKYO t-shirt after you said its quality was terrible lool

I'm sorry to hear about bad quality a but unfortunately I have experienced that myself... I had an Ayu necklace (not a bootleg or anything) and it broke after 2nd use. Now I have it as memory, maybe one day I'll find a way to fix it... Still sad it broke so quickly, I've bought things used from goodwill that still look as new -.- |

^ The tags said you could wash them at 40°C maximum so it should have worked, the rest was in japanese so well if there were more precise instructions I must have missed them
The A BEST one said in english that it had to be washed inside out, which i just noticed now after taking the pictures so i have been washing this one the wrong way it seems Whick ayu necklace was it??

After 1st washing (with allowed 30°C and inside out) My pink CDM shirt I washed multiple times allready, same as my CDM Hoodie and they look still good. I wear the hoodie very often, shirt not so much anymore because it´s too big now xD I also wore my AT09 Hoodie often until I broke the zipper. Ayu´s Hoodies rly have good quality. I have to say I mostly buy stuff that I want to use twice so I can keep one untouched. @attractive nausea Yeah that was probably my biggest Ayu goodie disappointment

Is the gold chipping off? I attached mine to my purse and I've had marks appear like that, but whatever it is I use my nail to scrape it off and it's fine.
Ah about the shirts - I've decided to hand wash them only now. Especially the white ones. I don't like wearing white so much because after a while you get those yellow stains under the arms D: My mother told me to wash my shirts inside out in order to protect the design! |

I really want to hear Seven Days War live again.
Seven Days Live was a pretty magical time to be in the Ayu fandom. And the live version of it is so beautiful... it really captured a moment in time. Also, Ayu-mi-x 1 is seriously an amazing remix album. I find myself listening to it a lot recently. It’s definitely my favorite of the Ayu-mi-x series. I love how much of a throwback it sounds now.
