Does (miss) understood deserve the same diagnosis?

Well, now that (miss) understood is out, and Ayu is making her new songs, with her new style, you all know what her new songs are like. Are we again at this point? Where people will now stop being fans of hers, or become them?

Is this "going downhill" as some agree, and some don't, or let's just call this phase, "Ayu's new era," a new turning point in her career? Is this a phase? Or is there anything even wrong at all? Will some of us leave, as PickleCookies already pointed out, there's no one from before 2003 here, which sadly enough is true...

Opinion, like beauty, is in the Eye of the Beholder. How many of us will still be here in 3 years? How many of us will still be fans of Ayu's in 3 years. Speculation is nothing, it gets us nowhere. Action is everything. What will you do? Leave or Stay or...perhaps you'll just be a watching spectator?

I agree with what you said but on one point you and PickleCookies are wrong. Some of us here have been fans since before 2003. I've been an Ayu fan since fall of 1999 and others have here have been fan longer or just as long .
