To a new artist that started unpopular, appearing everywhere may be a good thing, but she already has her fanbase, and everyone in the country already nows her... I would hate to see her doing something like Seiko Matsuda that kept releasing 2 albums a years in the most part of her career and now have so many songs that I doubt even she knows half of them...

She doesn't need a 5 years hiatus, but taking 2, 2 1/2 years per album would be interesting... The only top singer that made a successful comeback after a huge down in popularity was Namie, and she didn't started releasing like crazy after her sales started getting low... Ayu (pretty much like Namie some years ago) needs to be fresh again to japanese public, but if she starts releasing a lot and appearing everywhere, her image will only gets older and older
