Just a quick note to let everyone know what's going on with AHN! Thanks to a lot of our wonderful loyal members, activity has gone WAY up! Here's a breakdown:
We have new moderators! Each sub-section of the forum now has a moderator:
We have new news reporters!
Helping Imuya, who also plays the part of News Goddess here, is PowPowParn! With the extra help, news should flow even more often.
Also some big thanks to Tasking for helping with some new graphics for the forum, as well as bringing a lot of activity and members back to the fold. ^_^ Although we haven't seen her in a while, thanks to Tiffany for helping to kick off the graphics updating.
In the coming days/weeks/certain-amount-of-unspecified-time is changes to the site as a whole. Due mostly due to server load, the wiki is not online any longer, and those pages will need to be replaced with normal pages. We will be working on that soon, bringing back the missing pages. This will be a lot of work, as a number of templates need modifcation, and we'll let you know when it's complete.
As always, enjoy your time at Ayumi-Hamasaki.net!! ^_^

Ayu's name along with other famous Japanese celebrity names have been "trademarked" in China. Japan Times reports that this incident hasn't been the first time Chinese businesspeople tried to trademark famous names from Japan. They unsuccessfully tried to trademark Japanese landmarks but failed because of the prohibitions of the China's trademark act. Celebrity names are, unfortunately, not covered under the act.
It sounds like a few clever individuals have found a loophole in the law and got away it. Japan Times reports the response has been negative as it has been on our forum. Trademarking and paying for a name that isn't in your right to do seems pretty wrong. We all hope something can been done about this unprecedented incident.
Read the full article here:
Chinese tap Japanese celebrity names for trademarks
BEIJING (Kyodo) The names of Japanese celebrities, including pop singer Ayumi Hamasaki, have been registered as trademarks in China by businesspeople trying to capitalize on their fame.
There has been a similar controversy over unsuccessful attempts to register the names of noted locations in Japan, including Aomori and Kagoshima, as well as Japanese specialties, as Chinese trademarks.
China's trademark act prohibits registration of well-known place names in other countries but has no clear rule on the use of foreign celebrity names.
Most Japanese celebrities whose names have been sought as private brands in China are also popular there, according to the Trademark Office of the Chinese State Administration for Industry and Commerce.
Hamasaki's name was registered by a company in Guangdong Province as a stationery brand, and by a person in Hunan Province as a fitness club name, the office's Web site shows.
The site has received several anonymous complaints against the use of Hamasaki's name.
An individual in Hubei Province also obtained the right to use the name of pop singer Namie Amuro as a brand for apparel, and several people registered the name of table tennis player Ai Fukuhara, who played the sport with Chinese President Hu Jintao when he visited Japan last year.
Applications for trademark registration were also made for veteran actor Ken Takakura and pop singer Mika Nakashima.

Prices range from $8.99-$92.99 and you can pick up items such as Ayupans, T-shirts, baseball caps, mugs, phonestraps, wristbands etc.

Back in April Ayu promoted her DejiDeji Diary in Shibuya, with masses of fans turning up. This book launch however has been investigated by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department as Maxker posted in our forums,
'Singer Ayumi Hamasaki (30) 7. April last month used the streets outside Shibuya '109' without permission for her book-release event, surrounding the Shibuya Station area in Tokyo.
At this event, the book "Ayu Diary of DEJIDEJI 2000-2009A" (Kodansha) was promoted. To commemorate the launch of the book in front of the "109" building, without notice, Hamasaki appeared in front of nearly 8,000 people and fans making a huge fuss.
Also, shortly before the book lanch event, Hamasaki visited TSUTAYA, HMV, Tower Records and other large CD stores in the area. In a surprise of this event, crazy energized fans were going to chase Hamasaki from shop to shop, which led to wild conditions in the streets.
According to Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Hamasaki did not get permission to use the roads in the area, and is now being investigated for violating the Road Traffic Law in the metropol. According to Japanese law, the penalty for this type of offenses are fines and in the worst case, prison sentence.
Passages of buses and other modes of transport had to stop for a time. Fans tear down the stage, the stage and the sidewalk into the fence have been knocked down, and the scene was very chaotic and frightening for random bypassers, including several children.
As a result of this, Hamasaki was asked by reporters from the magazine "FRIDAY" in connection with the accusation. Sunday, she attended a event held in Tokyo, but was surprised by the prosecution against her. "I thought this issue was cleared in advance", while she smiles watching her staff. "In Shibuya? Heehaw. I should be allowed to move where I want, without having to submit an application specifically for this," she said, smiling.'
Fortunately these events have not resulted in Ayu being arrested. A statement from Team Ayu reads,
"According to some news organizations, there was an recent event which included Ayumi Hamasaki in a negative way. However, Ayumi Hamasaki was not involved in the planning and managment of the event, and will not be prosecuted for the incident. We regret the concern caused to all the fans of Ayumi Hamasaki, we urge you to understand this situation."

And don't freak out, but for the first time ever (probably in the history of music), Ayu's album is also available on a limited edition commemorative USB drive. The thing is just about the most loveliest thing Ayu has ever released and sold out within HOURS of its first press release in online stores. Due to the popularity, a second press version was released soon after. If it's still available in stores, I suggest you get it now before they're all gone.

New pictures have surfaced with Ayu's original half-heart tattoo changed just slightly. Our own netizen Chiban-chan has theorized that it was added on to promote her 10th Anniversary symbol, but the added other half of the heart is not real. Official commentary on the tattoo has yet to surface.

Our dear Ayumi has written in a recent TeamAyu message that her left ear that started having problems with hearing a few years back has now completely gone deaf. However, she remains optimistic and promises to keep going despite her condition.
Ayumi's strength and determination shines so brightly through in times of tragedy and this event illustrates just how much her unwavering vigor for life and music can touch those who surround her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you through this trying time, Ayu. Always.

In other news, there seems to be a whisper of a second world tour with Las Vegas as one of the rumored stops. The maybe-real-but-maybe-not news/rumor could prove to be as reliable as the past rampant reports of Ayu's wedding (from which the Ayu community will never fully recover in the aftermath) but the rumor is exciting nonetheless!

The unthinkable has happened. Many news sources reported the split of Japan's golden couple. Yet for a second, it seemed like there was maybe hope that this was just media fluff. But Ayu, who usually doesn't report big things herself, confirmed to her fanclub that Tomoya had become more of a brother than a boyfriend.

The "Glitter" PV (promotional video) from Ayu's new upcoming single will air in just a few days on July 10th!

(Note: I will try my best to keep up with the many appearances Ayumi makes and post them as "Ayu Sighting"s).
Ayu attended the premiere of the film "Confession of Pain" where her song, "Secret" from her "Secret" album was used as part of the film's soundtrack. You can see her posing with the dashingly handsome Taiwanese/Japanese actor, Takeshi Kaneshiro, who starred in the film.
