Is it too much to ask for Return Road to be performed? I'm still not over Replace though.

An article about how ticket sales are bad and "the decline of Ayumi Hamasaki"
http://news.livedoor.com/article/detail/7687431/

Apparently they sent out flyers to home offering free tickets to fill the tickets at one venue.

That is just tragic. And how ironic on for a tour titled "A BEST".

dear journalists/haters,

AyuGAME · #7 28th May 2013, 05:48 AM

i'm supporting her..no matter what...

ComatoseBunnySnatcher · #8 28th May 2013, 07:27 AM

Maybe the decline is due to her image being bad, but she really should release singles. Its no wonder she dissapeared from people's minds if she's never promoted anymore.

Jk, I just want a single.

terra · #9 28th May 2013, 07:54 AM

Even though I'll say to myself that I always support her but this is just sad

I've read that and I think it's time for her to make the decision, because it seems that she's not releasing anything soon and seems to let herself disappear from public's eye. I wonder if she could pull an 'Amuro' because honestly she's been in a downward spiral imo and for me it's really saddening and tragic

I don't trust this article. At least venues I went to were 99% full and everybody acted like fans.

About this acting as fans, I was really unlucky in that case, I was with non-fan friend, to my right were two Japanese who sat like stones the whole concert not moving, not singing, and I was in the first row on a balcony (Saitama) so noone in front of me and the next row behind me was high above me, I felt alone the whole time, it was more like watching it on tv :| And I'm talking about R'n'R Circus, not A Best Tour.

owlflight · #12 29th May 2013, 03:00 AM

Well I would be jumping for joy if I was at an Ayu concert. I would be super excited just to be there.

BlackSilence · #13 29th May 2013, 07:18 AM

lol since i've heard media's take on GACKT nothing really is going to surprise me... thye just have nothig to do, really lol maybe Ayu isn't as popular, but i am sure long years fans are still comming to er shows. I knw people in japan who love her a lot and are going to 3 -4 shows of A BEST LIVE. So..really...

SURREAL__RAINBOW · #14 28th May 2013, 09:47 AM

Don't trust stupid articles online, go to Japan and to one of her concerts, see for yourself how much love and support she receives every time, tears running down from both ayu and her fans' faces, it's very beautiful and touching.

These articles seem louder because we pay attention to them, ayufans in Japan keep it low key, they don't go around proving how much they love ayu, they just love her. These people online who hate ayu spend all of their time hating on her and saying bad things, but the things they say don't have to be true.

It's true, people were chanting "Ayu" for like, 20 minutes before she even came on stage. She has quite a diverse following too, from children to oji-sans and oba-sans. The most touching thing for me was to see the amount of disabled people that had covered their wheelchairs with Ayu straps, hand made streamers and uchiwas. I just wanted to cuddle them, but I restrained myself.

I think the media just want to poop on someone, so they attack Ayu. I'm passed caring about it, lol.

I WANT LIAR.

*rant about kanarya* Oh, come on, it's not really so difficult to understand the urge for kanarya: like it has been said endless times, it's never been performed. Simple as that. And, sorry, but you can't say that you love it, and then that you don't want it performed, at least ONCE. I mean, when are we going to have the chance to vote again? It was a beautiful chance to see an amazing song that, apparently, she really doesn't want to sing.
But some people don't really enjoy it, I get it perfectly, so please, try to understand the hype of people like me. Kanarya is one of my favourite song ever and before the results I had no idea it was loved by many. So please bear with me, 'cause I'm gonna write about it. Like, multiple times. Just ignore me and roll your eyes at me and everything'll be alright. *end of the rant*
Anyway, about the ticket unsold... can it be that this tour covers a lot of places? If it's bigger than usual, like they stated, maybe it's necessary to fill the seats but it's not really a huge problem.

yes even i saw a lot of children and young people at AHS tour while watching the DVD, and so great for those disabled fans supporting Ayu like that!

There was a similar article when Party Queen came out ! Of course she is in decline but she is far to be the worst and the only but it's Ayu so ... Since 2005 when she began to loose her popularity plenty of articles began to say how Ayu is over ! It's funny I'm sure in 15 years she will always be here ! You don't need to have an army of fan in order to pursue a carrier.

SURREAL__RAINBOW · #19 28th May 2013, 10:21 AM

Many people enjoy seeing successful people going down, just look at Britney, people enjoyed watching as she had the breakdown of her life, and Beyonce, even though she is doing good as always people find bad things to say about her.

Ayu is done better and doing better than most artists Worldwide, people are just eager to see her crash and burn.

AyUmIXx · #20 28th May 2013, 12:24 PM

I don't believe the article, ayu is still going strong as ever. there are still many japanese fans love her there.
