All the people I know irl who were already into Japanese music though, don't like her. They tend to gravitate more towards like YUI and Ayu, sometimes hikki.

imo Koda was one of the few people in Asia who actually had music that could break barriers cause of it's similarity....but I know if she'd go outside Japan, they'd make her speak English, and then it would all just go downhill.
This is how it is with my friends. The ones who don't care about anything Japanese agree that Kuu is a pretty decent artist, but my friends who are into Japanese stuff don't like her at all and instead like Ayu and such. My mom likes Kuu concerts, she finds them entertaining and loves Kuu's voice. She never once complemented Ayu, when Ayu was my favorite singer and I played her stuff a lot.
