Honestly, I'm not too pessimistic about Ayu entering the US market. She has a very distinctive look and style so she's got a fighting chance. The thing about Hikki's style is that it's very similar to what's already available in the US while SM made the big mistake of auto-tuning out Boa on her album and I also think they mishandled her image.

If Ayu enters the US market, it will be on her own terms, not anyone else's. She will have almost full artistic control so I trust her decision.
