And I think that explains a lot on why she keeps such a huge team of dancers, she really respect them and have them as a support. I don't think she will ever get rid of them...

Exactly. Ayu loves and respects and appreciates them, she insists on promoting them. I remember Timmy doing music for Miccie too, and they had a small concert together. Ayu is all about helping her team in their careers as well, making sure they are taken care of.
A lot of people don't like the results. Sometimes I don't either, although I do think "theatrical" and "big statement" songs and sets suit Ayu well when they're done right. BUT even when something doesn't come out well, I love and respect Ayu for showing such care for people that the entertainment industry usually treats like garbage. She always makes sure to help with with both appreciation and employment.
In the entertainment industry, that is a vanishingly rare show of both compassion and character.
