It doesn't have to go anywhere. This is a board to dicuss things. Not a train with a destination. The dicussion can continue even if it doesn't go anywhere if people keep it civil and do not spam. Anyone can come here and voice their opinions, be it they agree with the whole thing, or disagree with points, otherwise this thread would have been closed already. A thread that is all praising doesn't go anywhere, and there's a lot of those in AHS, and people keep on posting in them without others complaining.

I admit that incident did slow her down considerably for two months, but she's obviously selling enough to get #1 and #2 spots on the charts. She would still be considered one of avex's biggest artists atm as well. We can't even know for sure if the decline in her sales was just a natural occurence, or if it was due to that incident because there are always fluctuations in artists' sales.

By the terms I used, I think you should have noticed I'm making a joke. I'm not saying it severely hurt her sales, but her sales declines was extremly obvious after the incident, plus I'm sure kuu lost a lot of money from contracts that were cancelled. There's no proof whether it was just the usual expected decline after plateau peak that happened, but it was kinda coincidental that her popularity dropped at quite a considerable ammount after the event, and her career definitely isn't as strong as prior that. I agree with the other part of your post though.
