What to do about Shu.

[Luvia]

=[ i like Shuya the most out of most of her dancers, coz i think he's HOT!! but i used to like Mitsu, but he is no longer around with Ayu =[

I think Shuya stands out from most of the dancers because he got the looks and the height. Gomi is not bad, but the issue i have with him is that, whatever moves he makes will definitely make me laugh, so imagine if it was a sad song and Gomi appeared, I will definitely laugh non-stop. Nao is not bad too if he ever gets to do the solo during ballads, he just got that emotional expression, but too bad he's not around either.. =\

SHUYA.

What is the deal with Shuya? I'm sure he's a lovely person... but am I the only one confused as to why he's getting so much attention? Gomi (can't spell his name... sorry) is a much better dancer than Shuya.

Every concert I hope to GOD that Ayumi isn't going to sing a ballad which has him flailing wildly around the stage looking like someone being shocked in the bottom by a bolt of electricity. But, he always... shows up.

I'm sure he's a great dancer. But the dances he does at concerts, when he goes all "time-consumingly-solo" are so... STUPID LOOKING.

He just walks around the stage, doing his whole "Ayu is over there! And I'm here... and she's over there... and I need to get to her... but I can't because... I'm... Dancing...So...EMOTIONALLY!" dance-like-thing. Sometimes, I swear I even see Ayumi laugh because of how ridiculous he looks.

Who choreographs what he does? I seriously wouldn't be surprised if he just makes it up on the spot. It's that stupid looking. I'm a dancer by the way... I know what I'm judging.

I don't know. Just... what are your opinions? Maybe I'm alone in this.

LOL You're fantastic.

No, you're right. He's a crappy dancer.

Same here,
I used to say, like "Not that bare-chested emotional dance again...*sigh*,"

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

Honestly i'm not able to judge how good shuya is in dancing..i just would like to say that i don't find him awesome and i hate his hair!
Sorry shu and sorry to his fans here! It has been a long time i wanted to admit this -__-"

[perfectodub]

somebody remember the guy before Shu-ya that used to dance the emotional solo dance for a couple of years? (ex: Stadium Tour)

that guy was better and hotter

You have NO IDEA how entertaining this was to read!

Welcome to the club! Ayu should totally spread her time more often, although she's been kind of obsessed with Mannie lately, perhaps Shu-ya and he will have an EMOTIONAL DANCE BATTLE in a later PV......

[Andrenekoi]

Since At09 she is using him less and less... and she used him less before at07 too... So, she only over-used him for 2 years... not that much

I don't really notice him... because I don't really watch Ayu's tours.

[Mintkisses]

I think Shu is the best looking one. This might be the explanation why Ayu does a lot of solo type things with her during the concert... she may be attracted to him.

[dreamland2.0]

Well I think he's pretty ugly :/ Especially when comparing him to the god who is Maro...

The only time I really liked him was in the BALLAD PV. I thought he did a pretty good job and his hair colour was much much better.

[Oniisan]

Shuya.
Gotta admit, he's good-looking, but I don't like him as a dancer so much.
ZIN, Gomi and Maro are so much better dancers. And hey, why they always make Gomi look like a fool?
Well, anyways, when I watch to Ayu's tour DVDs and TV versions, I always just gotta skip those Shuya's solo dances. And often Maro's too, because I just think that they're pretty boring.

God Thank you Shuya isn't one of the MC hosts, and I hope he never will be.
But Ayu, plz choose someone else to be your partner, just for once, okay....?


Like Zin.

Or even better, Gomi!!!

[ayurocks20]

AND I'M BACK =D

I was away for a few days. *smokes pipe* Yeah. I wish my life were that interesting.


I was watching the making of one of her concerts the other day (Don't bother asking me what one, I have the memory of a goldfish) and it showed him 'rehearsing'. I was like. Dude. YOU SO don't do the same dance more than twice... It's really obvious that you make it up on the spot.

It's like me with my english speeches. I can write it down all I want but the whole class knows I'm still going to make it up on the spot again.

Shuya is just ridiculous to look at. His hair is like... Doesn't Ayumi ever say to him "Dude... what's with your hair... You look like a dooped up YuGiOh character... It's very stereotypically asian of you." Or something?

AGH! I've vented... LIKE AN AIR CONDITIONER!

and now I'm off =D

[Melodie]

I'm no expert, but I dance fairly often, and I believe I could do better.
I'm not criticizing him; he has his own way of interpreting Ayu's songs, but you'd expect him to bring something new to the floor each year, and sadly he doesn't. I like to be emotionally moved when it comes to this type of dancing...

Anyone seen Step Up 2?
There's a moment where Chase does this short dance to a rock song.
Now that's something I'd love to see a dancer do during Ayu's concert. I actually felt something.

Considering all of her male dancers use variations on the same hairstyle since Best of CDL, I'm pretty sure he isn't the one choosing how his hair will be cut...

Ayu, again, is the one to blame...

^I don't think it's fair to assume this, or anything for that matter.

It isn't a serious thread... It's just... a thread for venting about Shuya =D

Everything anyone says is a joke... Unless they aren't joking.

I don't even know what my point was when I typed this... I just sorta... started...typing.

Hi

ALL of her male dancers are using variations of the same hair style since Best of CDL, and hairstyle on a concert (or theater, or movie, or any other sort of performing art) is part of the characterization... They are part of the oficial art direction of that event, as much as the make-up, the outfits, the background, etc.
If shuyia's hair on concerts is blond, pink, green, long, short, curly, blackpower or whatever, it's not his decision, it's part of the visual direction of the concert... As much as everyone else credited as a performer on the concert (what means, Peco's hair too).

And guess what? There's a big "All produced by ayumi hamasaki" written on the end of the credits of all of her dvd concerts for a while now... so, she IS the one to blame...

[AyUmIXx]

i like him..
he's pretty HOT!!
i guess Shuya is no longer the center of attention because Mannie kinda beats him now haha XD even tho Mannie is not a dancer..

[nanakopy87]

i don't know why shuya is he one to be blamed when the choreography sucks.don't forget that most of his solo dance choreographed by mr.maro.

[Andrenekoi]

^Cuz "Maro is omfg so hot!1!" and Shu-ya deserves to die?
