- Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: Some might consider "Eyes, Smoke, Magic" from her album Party Queen to be this. In fact, the duo of "the next LOVE" and "Eyes, Smoke, Magic" is quite the BLAM not only for the album, but for her career.
- The ANGEL'S SONG PV.
- Broken Base: Do you like the first half of her career, or the latter half? Is the first half too weird or is it original, and are the later works too commercial or just more palatable?
- Then there are the fans who like her more recent Hotter and Sexier image, and those who hate it.
- Nightmare Fuel: The music videos, and in most cases the songs themselves: "ourselves", "Marionette", "alterna", "WHATEVER".
- Paranoia Fuel: Don't watch the "ourselves" music video before going to bed.
- Signature Song: Traditional examples include "evolution", "SURREAL", "Dearest", "M", etc.

. It’s about how her father abandoned her and her mother when she was young, only leaving her a teddy bear. - They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: Fans will never agree on what’s good and bad in the Ayu-verse. Many say the old material up to the I am… era (the height of her popularity) was the best it has ever been, and many argue that her more modern sounds are superior.
