I know she's popular in the gyaru culture, but I didn't know she was popular like Ayu-popular.

surely not, although, among new
Japanese solo artists, highlighting 'Japanese' & 'solo', Kana does pretty good (with groups obsession & hallyu) and she appears in the mag covers probably most frequently out of all, I guess she appears most frequently live too
the situation back then & now is pretty different. we cannot compare the sales level and many other things
I feel like Kana even isn't on her peak. yeah, she's the online sales queen, but I don't think she has reached her peak and if she ever will actually
but should I say Ayu wasn't a fashion icon dring her peak. it depends on what you call her peak, lol, but just by facts, after LOVE-Destiny- release she got her peak, then with A & only during LOVEppears the signs of Ayu turning a fashion icon first came into place, whereas Kana does have that 'cute style' special thing about her
