@ Delirium-Zer0:
Honestly, I can't really feel you on this.
Your description is on point, and I think it's probably the reason a lot of people's interest (especially the general public) decreased, but it doesn't make sense to me (and maybe that's why my interest in her is still, like, VERY HIGH, lol).
I liked her when she was this mysterious emotion-vessel supreme lyricists icon and I like her now that she's open and relaxed and allowing herself to be a more normal woman. In my eyes she just changed and grown up, not only in her life, not only in her music, but in her priorities and musical approach too.
If she's going back to her old ways of promoting, fine. But it's not really the point for me, I still find her lyrics and persona very relatable (relatively, because she's much older than me). She's so emotional and stuff.
But I totally agree with you saying Ayu started keeping it safe with her dropping sales, relying on her hardcore fanbase and gyarus. And I feel too she's trying to rediscover her past, but I don't think she's so desperate doing so...
