It’s a very real and honest comment.

haha yeah! this one here



I tried to translate this part at the beginning of the video (it was more difficult than I expected as none of JA&EN language is native to me )

Max: "Hamasaki Ayumi in her heyday? Well, her heyday was amazing. I guess you guys don't know about it well. I think, looking at current ayu, young people nowadays may mistakenly think something like "Oh, isn't she some kind of enka singer obasan? Or was it Koda though, must be one of them". Well, her prime... I think young people now can't imagine, how incredible the situation was those times. Like when ayu started to attach a furry tail as an accessory, all gyaru girls in Shibuya started doing the same. That's how huge her impact was. She was tremendous."

I personally love this part about enka obasan I wonder how ayu reacts to such words though.

Thanks for translation!
I think ayu understand her current position better than anyone else.
