While I'll always be against those collabs I'd never write **** like that on twitter >_>

Thanks for translating it Misa-chan!~

i don't think i've ever read such a sad TA post. it's saddening to know she's feeling upset & not even sleeping at night because of this whole issue. i hope people will now learn to try to word their opinions or views in a more respectful way instead of being hateful. it's really isn't fair for JUNO, Naoya, or anyone ayu works with to be hated on just because their working with her. i hope some people will now change their ways when it comes to situations like this. i hope ayu will stay strong!

as for my own personal opinion on the a-nation issue, while i'm not a fan of AAA or Naoya, i definately do not hate them (or "Dream ON" for that matter ) so i honestly don't mind if ayu wants to perform with Naoya. sure, i'd prefer to watch her perform solo, but it's not up to me, it's up to her. and even if i did purchase tickets to go see a-nation, i honestly would not care because as long as i could see ayu in person (along with my other favorite avex artists ) that's more than enough for me, lol. but i understand why some people may not have the same opinion as me, which is fine. i just hope people will learn from ayu's words & just tone down the hate.

thank you for translating & sharing this message with us, Misa-chan.

I know she's sad but i still just can't stand the collab at A nation this year!
P/s:
i understand for Naoya hate but Juno hate's just ...???!!! i mean they even haven't listened to the JunoxAyu!

about Juno, I don't mind if she does a duet with him on stage at A-nation, but she's giving too much support to Nao instead and promoting him alot...

Thank you, Misa-chan!
"I retied the bracelet on my wrist, with a much much stronger wish this time." - What bracelet is she talking about? I don't understand? Some TA bracelet or??
I hope, she doesn't feel betrayed, because everyhting she does, she does for her fans, even when she mistakes, she wants to surprise us.

Poor ayu.....
I really think that messages that say the other person is just "noise" in a song is really unwarranted. Ayu does collaborations for a reason and just because you disagree with the collab doesn't mean that Ayu will stop doing it if you send her hurtful messages. Ayu is a strong person, and she really puts feelings and emotion in her songs in every performance and that fact that people seem to take it as a weakness is very......bad (? dunno what to say). Would the fans appreciate her more if she did every show like she was stoic and dead to them? (I don't think so.) One of the reasons why I like Ayu is because she puts her whole heart into her songs and perfomances, its what makes her her own self.

Sorry is this is off topic, but I based this answer on the small bit where she says " When people write things like "It seems like ~", "I saw ~ on the internet", "I think ~" or "I heard someone say ~", it's not something that they have seen with their own eyes, nor is it truth that they believe in their hearts. It's just inaccuracies flowing from someone from somewhere, and sometimes, it just leads everyone on."

Go listen to one of the other 230 she's released!

AMEN

Well, i'm afraid some people takes this too seriously, they don't know how to fill their voids and internet it's the only spot where they can spit their ********. This is a clear sign how insane and sick some people is.

Anyway, i wanted to remark Kendelle's comment because i've stated several times i no longer enjoy what ayu does, and i have my full right to not like it, just the way Ayumi has the full right to do whatever she's in the mood to do. Luckily, and this i something i would like to remind you, there are THOUSANDS OF ARTISTS OUT THERE, who work ON SO MANY GENDERS,and where you can find anything you like. lately i've been listening much more to Bonnie Pink and Namie Amuro, so i don't see why there should be a fuss out of this, who cares?

The problem, now, is explain to this people who spends their time insulting and bashing others because they just don't agree. And with all due respect, some people here on the forum reacts the same way some of those twitter stans do,attacking other artists (here or on last.fm) with the excuse they can say whatever they want since there is freedom of speech and blah blah blah. Is this the way you want to use freedom? seriously, it's pathetic and hypocrit. I hope these people i refer to now can understand how comments might have so hurtful and painful effects on others.

Anyway, i really like how Ayumi is approaching this problem, always respectful and calm (tho clearly hurted) i'm really sorry for her, but i can see she can definitely act maturely, so she'll move on quickly

I believe she is referring to the red string bracelet she always wears.

I'm also one who dislikes her decision to do a-nation like that this year. Or overall the direction she's going with her performances and tours. For me she's mixing friendship and career too much, involving her staff, her friends etc. in almost everthing she does on stage. That's not what I want.
But if Ayu wants it, it's ok. I'm not a big fan of her anymore, but she's free to do what she wants. She has to take responsibility for her decisions, but with that second TA entry she's doing that (the first one was pretty stubborn and seeking excuses, lol, but nevermind).
But it's too much from so called fans to insult the people working with her, being around her. Voice your opinion in a mature way! It's so sad to read all that Ayu is describing and you can actually see this behaviour a lot on forums, also here on AHS. People have to understand it's always about the way you choose your words how your message will be received.
I'm sure Ayu will overcome that strong than ever.

sad and touching =((
i dont want her to stay alone... so from now on i support her in any feature she wanna do...

thanks for translation and posting =))

Thanks for the translation!

I'm glad she talked about what was happening, and I hope people from now on can voice their comments and opinions in a more polite way, bashing other artists and ayu isn't going to make things better for anyone. If you don't like what she's doing then you should definitely let her know and why so she can improve and please fans, but not in a way that will hurt anyone!

"If this continues, I will feel that I can't let others come close to me anymore. And then, I will need to keep everything to myself again." This was upsetting to read, even if ayu's an artist, she's also a person, and her feelings can get hurt just like anybody else's. All this talk about her being a product, while I think that's partly true, she's also a human and has emotions like everyone else.

[*hearT_Place*]

Wow, seriously? People are insulting Naoto and JUNO?? Geez, there *is* a way to respectfully, intelligently, and politely express a negative opinion (Not included in this? Hurting people). Stans like that really irritate me...

Thanks for sharing, misa-chan!

I had no idea ayu, Naoya and JUNO were getting bashed on twitter and such. Poor ayu but she is better than these people anyway and the sales of FIVE will hopefully show it. The people who usually send hurtful remarks on twitter are usually people who think their someone, with boring lives trying to put down the ones who do good. I dont know much about Naoya or JUNO but Iv felt excited that ayus finally singing with other artists and I cant wait to hear them.

Poor girl.. She works so hard, she's doing new things, I imagine how she must be upset with all what's going on. I hope she'll stand it and continue doing great things!
