ggsg68: Work, friends, lovers, we often lose sight of what is really important in the heat of the moment. To lose because of that passion is an extreme waste. That one night holds nothing. And with that, hold yourself back for that one night.

K1_Hiroya: As we become adults, our responsibilites increase. Recently, people have gotten angry with my irresponsible actions…
ayu_19980408: Our freedom increases too (^_−)−☆

ayu_19980408: Real freedom is when you become able to accept all responsibility on your own. And though it is tiresome to have to think of responsibility all the time, we can’t just think “I don’t want this responsibility” and let go of freedom, right? (^_−)−☆ Decide this yourself!!

ayu_19980408: One magazine shoot is done now. Now for the photoshoot of a new CM. And then, another magazine shoot.. I hope this will all be done by Fukuoka tomorrow!!! (laugh) ← This pattern seems to repeat recently.

ayu_19980408: RT

oi_chan_: Though it is common practice to ban the leak of images and contents before the actual CMs or PVs are aired, this artist decided that tweets such as “Filming now” or “This is a scene from filming 1 month ago” will receive more enthusiasm from her fans, compared to normal promotion like “A fun and awesome PV is coming~”! Yesterday, the artist herself revealed some news on Twitter, and many people are now wondering what kind of PV this will be. And the exchanges of the artist and the actors in the PV on Twitter can also show the passion they have. So even though I have to uphold my duty of confidentiality, I also feel like uploading some photos. (lol) It was really awesome on many levels..
ayu_19980408: That’s right, oi-chan ☆ Please don’t tell anyone. Ah, but you can’t tell. (laugh)

ayakamay: @oi_chan_ I totally agree with you! I like how you guys keep up the anticipation, so creative ☆
oi_chan_: We need to keep the filming location (so the fans don’t find us) and the PV contents (the interesting part) secret
ayu_19980408: RT

morikumixx: @oi_chan_ I thought the same way. I did wonder for a moment if what she was doing was right, but she still tweeted enthusiastically, and with her number of followers, the news spread like crazy. And all her tweets were filled with love. It’s easy to do this with PVs, since the artist is the lead and she doesn’t need to answer to others. CMs may also adopt this strategy if we do it well.

K1_Hiroya: I became an instant fan. Hmm, so how shall I address Hamasaki Ayumi-san from now on…?
ayu_19980408: “ayu” is OK.

MotokiMinei: It’s difficult trying to decide what to call her– (laugh)
K1_Hiroya: When I was blogging, I referred to her as ayu, and a fan told me to “attach a -san!”. So I started thinking about it.
MotokiMinei: It’s tough.
ayu_19980408: No need to think. “ayu” is OK ♪
