Aw, Alan's a very nice person. I love them both <3 XD

ALan's such a nice girl. And Nope, I don't think bad about her at all. I thought those words really come from her heart.

And come to think of it, yeah, I just realize that there are no Avex artists who comment on her deafness. Not that I wish they are gonna pitying Ayu, just show some respects and sympathy that's it

i can't believe people think Alan is trying to gain publicity :( that's awful. it's amazing that other artist's care about ayu and people should be happy that she has all this support. i think Alan is an amazing talent, as well. she sounds sincere to me.

Aw she's so sweet to mention about ayu!
& I don't think that she's trying to gain publicity! :no
No one should say that :(
:3
<33

kiseki89..your translation is excellent! way better than mine =p...thanks for the better translation. :)

OMG EASON. I saw him on asianbite today and he looked NASTY. It was like a trainwreck standing next to Joey Yung for "best male and female artists of 2007." :|

Oh well. I think that the message was very kind of alan to do. She's probably the first avex artist to address it in a blog or something [other than Ayu..]

yeah, Eason is still popular :thud

i honestly don't think shes doing it to gain attention, i mean if people dind't go to her blog no one would even know, its jsut a blog guys.


a blog.


And frankly wether or not she's sincere about it its jsut a blog post, so i don't think we need to debate about wether or not she has "evil intentions" or a "secret agenda" to steal fame or whatever.

seriously :(

that was very nice and sweet of alan, to talk about ayu's problem. :)

Of course not. Or we wouldn't be talking about her right now would we? But it's also a fact that certain people would only be mentioning it in the public eye because they may have something to gain from it. I'm not saying that was Alan's intention, but that the way the whole message is worded sounds weird and that it's a possibility.

Are you kidding me?

Maybe because Ayu doesn't want that? She herself said that she wishes people wouldn't talk about and worry over this so much.

I can't believe more people don't see how what she said is actually insulting to the Japanese fans. :shrug:

haha... no quarrels abt Alan's post....

Even if ayuchina knows it 1st... so?? Still Teamayu.... Japanese fans knows it first.... So i think that it's only right to say that china fans knows it second...

Gosh, and i hope avex artist like Koda kumi would say something... Gosh.. I will be really touched if she did....

But since ayu doesn't like the publicity, then maybe it's not that good mentioning....

我们都希望AYU能够早日康复。

关于AYU前辈左耳失聪的事实我们都感到非常遗憾，希望她能早日康复，以后依旧带给大家更多好 听的歌曲。步 迷们也不要太难过，你们的贴和留言我也看到了。我和AYU分在了AVEX同一个制作部门---第4部，AYU的担当古泽先生同时也是我的担当，人非常的好，也很有能力。但是他最近去美国休 假了。。。等 他回来我会转达你们的问候和请求。我明天录音的时候会把你们说的有关：“希望AYU来中国接受 中医治疗”的 事情转答我的制作人菊池一仁老师。他会先帮我转答的。虽然机会渺茫至少她能够感受到中国歌迷的 关爱。告诉大 家吧，其实AYU非常清楚中国有很多歌迷支持她。中国歌迷在AYU心里的分量是很重的。日本的 新闻报道关于 她左耳失聪的事情最早是先公布于中国的歌迷，其次是日本和其他国家的歌迷，这也说明了她对中国 歌迷的信任和 重视。。在这里还是希望AYU前辈能够早日康复。。大家的关心和问候相信她也一定能够感受到的 。。。

Isaac Hiew's version:

We all do hope Ayu can get well soon.

We all were deeply regreted about Ayu-sempai's lost of hearing on her left ear. Hope that she can get well soon, and continue bringing great songs for all of us. Ayu-fans sshould feel too sad either.

I have read your threads and messages. Me and Ayu were allocated to the same production department in Avex Trax -- 4th Department. Ayu's Manager --- Mr. Furusawa --- who is also my manager is a very kind and able-person. However he recently went to USA for vacation... I will reflect all of your requests and concerns to him when he returns from holiday.

Regarding your suggestion of getting Ayu to treat her left ear using Chinese medicine in China, I shall tell this with my producer, he will help me to reflect this idea to the management. Although the chance is slim (I think this refers to her chances of getting back her hearing), but at least she can feel the love of her fans from China.

Tell you guys what: Ayu is very much aware that she has a lot of fans in China, therefore they have a large place in her heart. The news outbreak about her hearing loss was actually to the Chinese fans first before even to her Japanese and other nations' fans. This spells how much does Chinese fans weighs to her. Still I do hope she will be able to cure her left ear and she will know how much you guys care and love for her...

Translated by Isaac Hiew... with a sad heart.

*note from admin*

DON'T FIGHT.

The first priority is about ayu's left ear. Everything else ain't that important. Right? So stop flaming and bashing.

Oh, now I understand. The news were firts posted in TeamAyu, but the chinese fans quickly new about it through ayu china. Since japanese fans from TeamAyu actually held that as a secret for much longer (we have to admit that TeamAyu is rather "closed to themselves"), the news actually spreaded faster towards her chinese fans. This is what Alan meant, and she was never being arrogant or disregarding the japanese fans :) Since the news quickly spreaded among chinese fans, she's emphasizing that ayu has many chinese fans and that they are also very important to ayu.

Thasnks for the translations guys!

what??
ayu actually let the chinese fans to be the first o know about her hearing loss message?
how come??
Team Ayu is not Chinese official ayu's fan club right?
but it's Japanese!
confusing now~

The last translation by Isaac Hiew was the most precise and grammatically correct translation. I am Chinese by the way. And those people who have nothing good to say should just keep their comments to themselves. The Chinese medicine comment by Alan was a suggestion, and A suggestion BY Chinese Ayu fans conveyed through Alan's blog.
Alan's a really good singer. I am a fan of Alan too. And Chinese traditional medicine has it's merits. I believe that Alan posted it in her blog as a response to her own fans' inquiries about Ayu who most probably are also Ayu's fans.

Well, once she revealed her status on TeamAyu, most members there didn't leak any info for other japanese fans who weren't part of the club. However, the info leaked to ayu chinese forums and quickly spreaded towards chinese fans, way before most japanese fans would get aware of it. I think that's probably what might have happened. I know people from TeamAyu usually don't leak much information from it, except for a few membwers there. That could be an explanation for what she mentioned there.

I do believe that alan's intentions were not malicious or anything. I don't know if anyone can get any fame by mentioning someone who's more famous than them in their blog, actually. :/

ya... No flaming everyone...... Cuz we are ayu fans....

Hmms... perhaps Alan should say that the new reached china the quickest....
Rather than saying ayu lets china fans knows abt her problems before Japanese fans... Cuz ayu's real intention was only to let teamayu members know about the situation... Ayu herself even mentioned that she doesn't like pple talking abt her hearing problems.... So if she leaked the message to chinafans 1st, wouldn't that be inviting more publicity??

Read the thread, please. TeamAyu members kept it to themselves for a while, AyuChina was the first place where it was announced publicly.

well, kinda confuse.... So who leak the news to the chinese forums (ayuchina)?? surely there's some source ....

"The news outbreak about her hearing loss was actually to the Chinese fans first before even to her Japanese and other nations' fans. This spells how much does Chinese fans weighs to her."

But then the sentence above implies that ayu's intention was to TELL the chinese 1st..... But I thought ayu's intention was only to announce to teamayu??

someone explain this can?? I hope u all understand what i'm trying to say... (I'm trying to ask abt ayu's intention, and not Which country actually got the news 1st)
