So, after half year can say that it's another forgotten project
A CHIT CHAT - Ayu answered only few questions long time ago. A ON AIR - never worked. All rehearsals was at the instagram and youtube. Few days ago I suddenly remember about app. Now it works even worse. It's really slow and keep restarting

Why is her team so fucking useless when it comes to things like this? Aren't these people supposed to be professionals?

We've all said it's not unbelievable that Ayu could have a massive comeback, but that requires her to dig into her own pockets and throw some of that $400 million networth at things even if avex refuses to do it. For fuck's sake, if I saw Ayu spend another $2 million on a PV, I'd be gobsmacked. Because it certainly isn't any lack of creativity or talent on her or her team's part. Hell, look at Tim from when he was introduced to his role now... he does LESS than he used to, and there are people all over AHS wanting him to do MORE, to be MORE involved in producing and writing with Ayu. We just don't want PQ -- we want BRILLANTE, we want You are the only one, level of investment. I understand Ayu's exhausted, worn out physically and emotionally from 20 years of constant get-up-and-go. But doing the longest tour of her career RIGHT NOW isn't going to make her feel any better. She needs downtime, and she needs to pare back everything and approach her writing and talent as though she just got signed to avex for the first time. Because that's kind of where she's at. She needs to spend time away from the habitual things and reconnect with being a brand new artist and having a whole message to send. Namie f'n did it. And Namie did it looking bored the whole time. The only thing different between Namie today and Namie 23 years ago is the sound. Same visual style, same personality... she just stepped back and reinvested herself in her career, as if she had to start all over and her actual debut album was PLAY. Anyway. Done ranting. I just wish they'd spend this time refocusing Ayu on becoming Ayu all over again. Not on these damn gimmicks.

People ask for something new and forget that "new" usually means "untested", and it can really go both ways. Actually, some of the worst reception Ayu ever got from her releases were the ones she was actually trying something different. |

I wonder if ayu herself forgets about it or how much she actually controls stuff like this...
For example, does she actually have any input into the app or does she think someone else is taking care of it? Is she answering questions and they're just on some avex salaryman's desk making him a nice pillow to sleep on? I'm really disappointed in the lack of progress on the app but I don't know if the problem is ayu's team or she just gave up on it. Ayu doesn't seem the type to half-heartedly do something |

To be honest, I'm more annoyed at the lackluster running of Team Ayu. She barely posts herself anymore, and the translations are so delayed...if they even happen at all. There are a handful of posts that they just decided they weren't going to translate.

Yeah, and her experimental stuff is some of her best stuff, but every time she does it, it's like she retreats and reverts to safe things after the response isn't immediately great (A One, Love Again etc). In Namie's case, even though her sales were continually falling from 2000 - 2005 and many of her fans disappeared after the style change, she not only stuck with it, but doubled down on it, and it ended up paying off big time in the end.

^Well, to be fair she has been alternating between safer and edgier stuff since the begining. As she releases a lot, it's not really a bad strategy marketing-wise.
Namie also embraces a genre at time, while Ayu is all over the place with her experiementation. |

TeamAyu became pointless after Ayu joined Twitter.
It's now completely for ticket reservation. I don't think the demand for a regularly updated fan club is there anymore.

Yeah that definitely feels like the case. I don't think I'd give up my membership now that I have it, but I wouldn't subscribe for the first time since all the content is basically free on twitter/IG anyway =\

Today I noticed a notification that said g app stopped its calendar and photo service on May 31st, so these features no longer work for even Japan residents.
The service wasn't great in the first place, but this app is slowly becoming obsolete. |

This app is a failure. I mean, who uses or even updates this app? And is the staff asleep regarding 'new' TeamAyu features? Glad I'm not a member of TA...
