She doesn't have an image that she can say is "Ayu" anymore. In the past you could be like, "that's an Ayu photoshoot," but now...  I don't know what she's trying to do. Look super super young? She looks like how she did when she was 17. She can't try to look like a teenager anymore. It's getting almost disgusting.
What's weird is that she's trying to look super young in most of these, but looks super old obaa-san like in the second photo. 
On the bright side, it doesn't look like she used as much photoshop this time around. That makes me really happy.  |
*steps out of the dark alley* wow... you also think she had a nose job? I do too, and some others here. We're like a secret society... having to keep quiet or else get flamed. I'm coming out too!
Spoiler:
Yes... her nose. It was a huge blow to me after seeing her nose "changed". I was in denial for months saying "oh maybe her face got fatter" or "oh maybe it's just photoshop or contouring, or the angle". But nah... so shocking for me because her old nose was very beautiful and different from other cookie cutter Asian "celeb" noses that were thin and small. Her nose had structure and was more bulbous than the usual pencil thin standards we see today. I actually accepted my nose after becoming an Ayu fan, but now not so much.
I have a different theory though on when she had this done. I believe she had this surgery right before Mirrorcle World pv, I noticed the tip was less fleshy and her nasal bone thinner. I actually also notice some swelling too, her shape was a bit shapeless during the walk through the bridge in the Mirrorcle World PV. The nose is presentable after a nose job only after a few weeks but has slight swelling so perhaps that is why no one saw that her nose was smaller. Then, throughout the months after mirrorcle world up until now, her nose healed and adjusted to the shape we see today. It gets thinner and more chiseled as the skin around it wraps around the underlying structures and heals. I've actually consulted about my nose for surgery, that is why I know all this... still, I hope I am incorrect, and that her original face would reappear... She was so beautiful
About dear Kazuyoshi: I am looking through his online portfolio. I am actually impressed. He has a range of clients and some of his work is really good. He has shot so many ads for so many brands and so many celebrities. *thumbs up*
