Honestly, if its true though, I'm kind of dreading it. (for all the reasons others have mentioned) As well as the fact that it will probably not help her popularity in Japan any and if it fails (which history has shown it is likely to), she would likely be coming back to a smaller fanbase I think.

Yes, that's correct. But she's known for having one of the most faithful and suporting fanbases in Japan. (of the female artists of course).

Max told me and my friend "She's training her language skills", while Stan smiled in the backround. But she has done this at least since the start of 2005... I remember a TA post mention of a english test/training on a airplane some years ago. Or maybe it was a blog post at Mika's site..hmm

truehappiness: haha, yeh, I know. But that's partly because we post everything that has to do with Ayu, also rumors and not so credible articles from other forums (mainly chinese). sometimes the information turns out true, others not.
For some reason, people have a tendency to ignore the "Rumor" comment, and post our stuff as "news", on other forums/sites. >.<
