I am just not happy that she still wears balenciaga and posted the pictures on IG.
She should know how this brand got cancelled.

She seems to go for cheetah-styled goods again for Anniversary! This is getting me SO EXCITED

I don't think Ayu cares about the Balenciaga stuff. Even if it is big news there she probably wouldn't drop something she likes unless it blew up.

It's not exactly the same thing but it was only a few years back that she put on that jacket with the rising sun on it which should never have even made it to the stage for her to wear. She's either really not versed in news and history or just doesn't care about it unless it becomes a hot issue for her directly.

Um, knowing how Japan had the whole CP stuff legal until just recent 2 decades or so, tells everything you need to know about how it's probably not a big deal there. Not to mention that brands do separate campaigns for different regions. I personally would have never seen any of that stuff if not people sharing it and if their media didn't pick up on it and saw it as a major issue, i don't think any celebs of their did either. TBH, from the first glance it looks pretty innocent until you start analysing the imagery, so i don't think you can blame her. She's not a paid promoter of them or getting brand deals. She's been wearing their crap for years cuz she can afford it. It's her choice, really.
And i agree that unless it hits her reputation directly, i don't think she's gonna care. Most people probably don't even know about it over there. Plus she's not that relevant anyway for anyone to care either.

Ok, I sound crazy here.. but I noticed something really off from ayu lately. That off feeling is getting stronger after she release Summer Again PV. I have another theory that ayu has joined Illuminati.... Summer Again, tbh, is a very dark PV that shows she is in the group...

There is a strong connection between balenciaga and the elite group of Hollywood...

More I think, more I feel like I am crazy.

I think the speculation that she is part of the Illuminati has been around since her 2000 concert

I heart stopped for a bit. I hope it’s a mistranslation on her part. But if she decides to take a hiatus, it might be a good thing.

I don't know... Ayu has always made it very clear that she won't retire and that she would have already done it if that's what she wanted..
Obviously people can change, so nothing's ever 100% out of question, but I believe that if Ayu were to retire, it would be due to health issues. I just doubt it's something she would willingly do, she still loves performing so much.

Maybe she'll take a break after her anniversary, although she seemed to already struggle with not performing for months in 2020, haha.

Or maybe it's nothing that serious, knowing what a troll she can be... I don't think she has ever teased any of her 'bad' / major announcements before either. Yet I'm also prepared for other things..

Oh, Ayu...

I just realized she will turn 45(!!!) next year... so yeah, it might be time to retire and announce A Best 3 as the last compilation album.

Or she is just spreading some rumours to push album sales of Remember You.

She just posted a TA blog and it doesn't help at all...

"We don't know if there will be an MC during the anniversary live... but I have a report from Ayumi Hamasaki."

Either say it now or just wait and reveal it when it's time, Ayu. I don't like any of this

Well, let the wait begin, I guess!

Her latest post really makes me think NRY is about the dancers who she said betrayed her and cut out of her insta pics at the party...
I was wondering whether maybe it had something to do with her relationship to Pei, because it's easy to imagine that other dancers would object, not least because of the age and status gap, but also in the context of troupe harmony and maintaining professionalism

About the "First and last big news"-update.

Hope:Announcing a world tour (the top of Big news)

Fear:
Retirement

Expectation, knowing her tendency to kind of disappoint with her news:
"OMG, I'm launching a limited TA-only brand of tennis socks. It's always been my dream!"

I had a crazy dream last night that I was at the 25th Anniversary Concert. The concert was amazing, a spectacle!

However, during the encore while she was doing a costume change, a video was displayed like the NTV 2004 interview. The interviewer asked "Where will Ayu be in the future?" and she said "Well, I will spend time with my children and enjoy the beach as well"

Everyone in the concert went silent ...

And then I woke up

Yea that’s true… like it’s hard to draw a line between work and private. Since pei is still a dancer in her troupe. Not like he’s totally an outsider guy. (Like how Manuel, Tomoya or that doctor guy is). LOL
