I would absolutely love to see more in-depth comments about her material written from a positive aspect. I think a lot of people (including myself) don't do that much anymore because the atmosphere here is, frankly, really negatve and taken over by people who don't even consider themselves as fans anymore.

Tbh though I feel on a fan forum the negativity-positivity share shouldn't be 50-50. I was really dissappointed when, not that long ago, there were 2 similar threads of something along the lines of "What you hate the most about Ayu" and "What you love about Ayu" and the former had like 20 pages of commets while the latter had less than 10. It's sad. I'd love it if there was a completely new forum for her and the still-fans would mass migrate there and it would also be a lot more newbie-friendly, and those sick up to death of her could safely come to all the other areas still here lol.

I just realized this is probably really off-topic huh... To put it more topic-fittingly I think the general reception to her stuff here comes across a lot more negative than what the reaction of her fanbase as a whole is because of the reasons I stated. Who knows, I could just be lying to myself but it honestly seems a lot of people who are long-time members even sometimes develop some kind of hate towards her after the general negativity here rubs off on them and because of the stupid fan-made juxtapositions between artists. Meh, I love me some Ayu anyway, and I don't ned her to be what suits my moods anymore because I've realized I respect her past, and therefore current, artistry enough to not dwell on the parts of it I don't care for.
