I asked remove-mom from the AHS Discord to translate the beginning of Ayu's most recent TA post specifically, since I felt the auto translation versions were not giving it credit for what she was trying to convey. I felt the translation is quite important for all Ayu fans to read so I will share it here. Again, full credit is to remove-mom for taking the time to interpret the original Japanese text.

I'm sure people will feel it ironic that I am sharing her words outside of the official TA despite her clearly being exasperated or upset with that in this post, but I believe TA is all Ayu fans. Some people can't afford Team Ayu and I don't feel it's fair to consider them outside of the family simply due to that.

So, I hope everyone feels welcome to read Ayu's words here, and know it's for them as much as anyone else.

At last, and in the truest sense of the words, I feel as though I've finally become both more emotionally and physically stable, little by little and in various ways.

As everybody knows, in places other than this one, I have a tendency to act tougher than I am... of course, it isn't to say that I'm choosing nice-sounding words to smooth things over, and I'm definitely speaking truthfully, but, well, if I can get away with not saying something, I tend to not want to say it.

It's my style to avoid saying overly much, and there is always some basis for my wanting to only ever stick to being this way as much as I possibly can.
In reality, no matter how much I only want to talk here, and to only tell things to TA, that's not reasonable. It's been this way for a long, long time, and I have no choice but to accept that.
