I stand by my earlier statement, but really the topic is subjective.
In other news, I am SO pumped for Kuu at a-nation. She is my Summer Queen.

Well, I totally respect good and bad perspectives on Kuu, Ayu, Name, and Utada. I think everyone has made good points.
With respect to Utada, I loved her until this hiatus. I miss her often, but I'm more sad that she isn't remotely committed to her fans anymore. It was a fun few releases with her, but I have to stop myself feeling upset when I listen to her music these days.
Some of Kuus stuff gets very old, even when it's still fresh. But what I love about Kuu is there is always something new. The same energy still fills her performances and songs and being Kuu, I imagine, must be far more exhausting than being another artist. She does so much. I didn't like Kuu much until a couple years ago, but I always checked on her since Black Cherry.
And, the thing here, is that I feel the same way about Kuu that I feel about Ayu: They should sell better, they should have more fans, and they should have more investment in their PVs and albums and performances. And they should be in a dozen CMs every month.
I can't complain much with respect to Kuu or Ayu. I bitch about little details, but I always stick around. Hell, I even kept listening to Last minute after I hated it. Lol
