It already gets criticism, but I don’t think it’s out of hate for Ayu. People are just genuinely made uncomfortable by such an image and I know people have different opinions, but it’s important to understand why people are offended and it’s not to hate on the artist, because I know a lot of Ayu friends online who love her but feel uncomfortable when they see this cover

Is ganguro and its offshoots also being reevaluated? Genuine question, I have literally no idea.

From what I’ve seen, I would say yes. Not gyaru in general but just the subcultures like ganguro that involve the extreme darkening of the skin. But again, it just depends on who you ask
