Cambridge University Press publishes a lot of printed material, whether it's a scholarly journal or something else. I'm curious, what is the name of the journal in which you found the article? I have a lot of university resources and would like to try to dig it up and read the whole thing.

Maybe its just me but I can't tell if they're being negative or positive. So its a good thing right?

I think the author is just making observations without being neither positive or negative. usually academic journals aim to be neutral.

AMEN TO THAT. though i am a hikki fan and hikki collector too...

Hey that was pretty neat! I bet it was cool to find them talking about Ayu in an academic journal! All of the journal articles I've had to read were nowhere NEAR that interesting!

Why do they talk about Utada there? I don't get that part.
