(15:58) Question seven: What song is the most memorable for both of you? Neither Max nor Ayu likes the idea of choosing just one, and Ayu says she won't tell.

(16:39) Question eight: What do you remember about writing lyrics/music? Ayu says she'd never been praised for any specific talent or believed she could do anything special. So when Max told her her letter writing was really amazing, it struck her.

(18:33) Question nine: What music do you want to make from now? Ayu says that for any musician, and maybe actors too, what they want to do and what others want them to do is not the same. She feels lost as to where to go. Max asks Ayu where she will go (musically); she says she feels she's been allowed to go wherever she wants, but--Max cuts her off and says it's fine for her to do that. BUT, he says, her fans are watching her, and she will hear them if they tell her she is doing something wrong. So she should keep her antenna up to listen for those voices.

(19:49) The cameraman says Ayu has many fans and she starts to laugh. Question ten: What does Ayu think of her fans, who sometimes mesh with her and sometimes do not (I'm not sure what that meant, maybe it meant they sometimes like what she does and sometimes don't)? Max and Ayu agree that doesn't matter, it won't change anything whatever she thinks. But she is grateful to have fans that tell her when she is making mistakes. If those voices stop, her career is over. Although at the same time, she can't live JUST worrying about what those fans will say. Max says she's very strong and Ayu laughs, saying he always tells her she's strong. Max berates himself for caring so much what others think, and Ayu agrees that Max has always noticed more strongly what others say and think. Max calls himself weak.
