[arlen]

Her English is quite good

Is that Leslie spouting all that "I thought you were in America..why were you in Japan?" words?..I felt quite uncomfortable watching him LOL!

Ayu was so poised and cute!

That's what I was thinking, too. her english is really great--she sounds more confident now than she ever has--but I imagine something like that would be difficult to express in her first language, let alone her second.

Anyway, I think her English is cute and its really good.

It does seem that way. And yeah her accent is a bit better, still it's hard to say how much has she actually improved with only a couple of lines.

Well in the comments you can see that Chinese fans are bashing the reporter for making fun of Ayu's English - the reporter apparently (because my mandarin listening is poor) said that Ayu's English was broken, even though obviously bringing up a topic like that would be difficult for anyone to talk about!

[Corvina]

Well, she isn't speaking much, so you really can't judge properly. XD
But it's pretty obvious the chinese media took that, cause Ayu didn't know how to expres in English...

Yeah, esp right after she said that she couldn't explain it, the reporter commented "why is that the only thing we hear from her?" -___-

[ryben]

what do they expect to hear man. if she throws in big bombastic words i suspect they would probably question her honesty and criticize her for being fake. And sometimes emotions overwhelm till the point you can't really express it in words, no? Her english is pretty rad!

[CZECHayu]

she's awesome! I feel so touched by the words she said. I admire her so much.

[rakeru]

Her English is so improved! I'm so proud of her!

[GREENsora]

Ayu sounds so cute when she talks in English!
Thanks for sharing

[KillTime111]

i looooooooooove watching her speak english. i find it surreal but amazing. she sounds so cute and classy!

[ComatoseBunnySnatcher]

Wow, Im impressed by her progress!
no pun intended xD

But people shouldnt be so critical, even if she is in the spotlight. Though you can tell she has it down, judging by the way her sentences are spoken and the time (almost none) it took her to respond, save for the question where she was speechless. Her voice surprised me too! I always thought shed sound deeper, but her voice is kinda high pitched here lol

Shes so adorable!
Show them what you got, you fierce *****!
