Actually it's not only about Shuya. Before MY STORY tour, the main focus was on ayu. Surely there maybe films OR dancers showing in between ayu's changing outfit time, but the camera focused on how they performed. You just dun see the dancers' faces that much on screen. Right now if Shuya/Maro/whoever is dancing with ayu, he or she may ridiculously get 10 - 20% of the screen time (close shot, face shot, etc.). Hey I'm watching the concert because of ayu, not the dancers. We dun really want that "extra bonus". Like I said before, how often do you see ayu standing on the stage alone nowadays? You must see her dancers around almost 80 - 90% of the time. I really miss the time when she swung alone while singing Dearest in A Museum, or singing Hanabi alone in Stadium (yes there were two dancers around, but we didn't see them much). She's been trying to hard to use "drama" to emphasize her songs nowadays.
