They happen to like her music. There's nothing wrong with Ku fans being on an Ayu forum. I'm a fan of both women.

Perhaps there's something to be said for the release of two consecutive compilation albums helping her out - I think LOVE & HONEY with Cutie Honey gave her a boost, but BEST~first things~ really skyrocketed her career, and the momentum's been kept up with the ~12 Singles Collection~, tons of promotion, quality music (in my ears, anyway, and remember: One man's trash is another man's treasure) - her image probably isn't hurting things either, but I think that if the music weren't any good, her sexy image wouldn't be doing jack to move records.

Reason why I'm a fan? Personally, I love her music. Before secret, that's a different story. Still pretty good, but not exceptional, but those who like her early work - nothing wrong with that. But she's put out a lot of stuff that sounds great to me. Music I love listening to.

People sometimes act like Kuu doesn't deserve to or isn't allowed to have any fans, which is selfish. Don't like her, fine, but let US like her.

Besides, this... is a sub-forum for discussion of Asian artists. Kuu happens to be one - a very popular Asian artist too.

I never got the competition thing anyway. They're on the same label. Avex does not care about any competition. Ayu and Ku probably don't either - do you see them being pushed to sell against each other? No, they sell alongside each other. Competition within the same label is pointless. Competition between labels is pointless.

Can't the two release whatever and have their own fulfilling, happy careers without all the mud-throwing and catfights between their fans? It's... very immature.
