i found out about kumi because of FFX-2 trailers that i saw, sometime in 2003 or 2004 (i remember getting the game as a birthday present!

). then i remember in 2005, i downloaded a few PVs, and that included Chase, Cutie Honey, Hands & Hot stuff.

i took a break for awhile, because i following utada at the same time as well. then in the fall of 2005, i got back into kumi by listening to you and after that, i followed all of the 12 singles. so ever since then, i've been a fan. it's been like...4 or 5 years! i considered her as my #1 artist back then since i really only followed her the most, lol, but in 2007 i discovered more artists. even now, she's my #1 favorite female artist, even though i love alot of other artists as well. i'll never give up on kumi!
