[QUOTE]On Spotify the situation is nearly tied though - Ayu is still in the lead without releasing much with 265k followers, Ku is at 255k.[/QUOTE)
Spotify is growing in Japan, but it'sn ot the biggest streaming site.
Ayu for sure has more international fans than Kuu, especially Chinese.
Both could influence those numbers.

Pure speculation I would say. Ayu does not lack younger audience. Do check the #ayumihamasaki hashtag on Instagram or simply attend one of her concerts. She has both very young and very old fans, with probably the most diverse fan base. And I do agree that it's very hard to compare the sales of a 5-track barely-mini album without a single music video or TV appearances to a full 13-track album with 5 music videos

Actually a divese fan base through all generations is an aspect ALL big artists have. Kuu included. You only have to check the karaoke statistics, which include age.
It's the reason they made it that big in the first place.
But Kuu got a push last year with young fans through that viral hit.
And you really don't want to judge the age of an asian person through hashtags and pics, do you?
And to compare TROUBLE with DNA - Ayu also released two different concerts with it, she held back before, while Kuu is still releasing her concert DVDs regularly.
You could go on like that.
