fujikatsum: There’s just so many fine details in the dancers’ performances, the band, the screen movies.. Everything was done to the max for this show, and watching it once won’t allow you to catch everything. I’ll be staying over many times and looking forward to each visit (￣▽￣)

kazumahamamoto: うなんせんかんし
UN1982: Kazuma, I’ve read your tweet lots of times but I don’t get it.
ayu_19980408: I thought it was Shigemi in that photo at first, please don’t tell him.
UN1982: Shingemin!!!!
ayu_19980408: Can I call you “Shingemin” like how I call you “Kyanzuman”?
(Misa’s note: Kazuma’s tweet really doesn’t make any sense. lol)

mikajohn: I don’t like young hunks. Young hunks like me.

hanabistaff: Blog is updated. “New Work Flower Basket Bag ☆” http://t.co/sTNoMkTK
ayu_19980408: RT

ayu_19980408: Today, I smile to myself everytime I remember how my real-life disciple Micchii (@miccie0730) fell into the ditch along the main road amidst a display of amazing acrobatics, while Seiko (manager) looked on in amusement from afar. (laugh) By the way, Micchii really bled lots. (laugh)

ayu_19980408: Furthermore, as he was falling, his right foot was caught by the car Sugi (manager) was driving. (laugh)

atarusa: Micchii-san is ayu-chan’s disciple, so is he the chorus member who updates the Love Hotel blog?… ♪( ´▽｀)
ayu_19980408: Yes, he is my manager too.

naa910: ayu-chan and Micchii-san, who is the older one~? (・∀・)
ayu_19980408: Micchii is 7 years my junior. Sugi-chan is 8 years my junior. Seiko is 7 years my senior. Prince is 2 years my senior. Daddy Pei is… my senior (￣▽￣)

yukojuly14: “Dazei~”… Are you using Sugi-chan’s gag phrase!? Σ(οдО;)
ayu_19980408: Hmm? What?? ~(・・？）） Sugi-chan is the name of my manager. (laugh)
(Misa’s note: In her previous tweet, ayu ended her sentences with “dazei” instead of the usual “desu”)

BlueNOTESmile: That’s because ayu doesn’t watch TV (laugh) The most popular celeb now is someone called “Sugi-chan”, so I guess he was referring to that Sugi-chan? As for the gag, the phrase “dazei~” is really trendy now (*^_^*)
ayu_19980408: Oh~!!! I learnt something o(^▽^)o

masumi0220: After 2 years, you’re coming back to Niigata, and all the ayu fans around me are so excited now~ ♪ We’re all looking forward to meeting you in Niigata!
ayu_19980408: Giggle ♡ The HOTEL will open at Niigata’s Toki Messe, so wait for that ♡

eririn_0506: ayu-chan! How many hours do you spend training each day?
ayu_19980408: On days when there’s a LIVE, I wake up 3 hours before I have to report at the venue, warm up my throat, do voice training an hour before rehearsals, then do make-up, change into costume and do a last-minute voice training for 20 minutes ♪

miyouuuuuuuuuuu: So Micchii-san is your disciple (^O^) He is just like ayu-chan ♪ His English is really good too, did he do studies overseas?
ayu_19980408: I don’t think he is really super good (laugh) But he did music training in LA, so his listening skills are good ♪

kayano44: Someone told me this recently, “Big sis is a miracle ☆”… Am I really a miracle?! I started to question myself (^_^;) Sorry, just talking to myself..
ayu_19980408: Yes, you are a miracle ☆ Please stay like this forever~ (^-^)/

ayu_19980408: I got too caught up in training, my muscles are aching now. But I don’t hate it. (laugh)

ayu_19980408: When life is given to you, it is not for forever, and it’s understandable that that is hard to accept. It’s understandable, but it’s not always easy to accept.
