And since her packaging and marketing have been abysmal recently, many people like me are torn because they like Ayumi's music and are still fans but feel that either her or her company aren't putting in the effort as before and it's disappointing because it's Ayumi who has set these standards in the industry for herself. No one is asking for gold dusted cd covers but as a longtime fan, its hard for me to just see something like her 15th anniversary fiasco and just be happy with the music and ignore everything else that came with it, especially when it makes her look like a joke.

if ayu bowed out gracefully, no offense guys, it would have been better for me. at least, she lowered the curtains while she's still on top, not when everyone thinks she's already a sell out. it just saddens me, so i asked if she's going to leave avex, maybe things will be better, even just a little?
