Yay! My first Ai-thread! I've been waiting to make this for so long!!! I hope it's satisfactory! :P

I'm really surprised that Ai is 27. O_o Every time I think of her I think she's still like...maybe 23 at the oldest!! :laugh Why are all my favorite singers getting so old?? XD

Fantastic first post! Everything that we need to know that's new. I like the thread title too ( :yes ).

LOL. Thanks! I've tried editing it multiple times and still feel like it's a bit disorganized. :tipsy But I'm glad that you like the title. I was really proud of that. XD I didn't want something too wordy or long.

Speaking of One x Time, I was really surprised that it was getting a PV, I never thought it would ( :P ).

It's fine~! (The opening post.)

oohhhh finally a new thread :yatta !! i love the title and the first post :love

Awesome thread name.

Happy birthday to you, Ai!

I just ordered LOVE LETTER in a compulsive moment (I seriously needed some J-Pop stuff already xD) but now I'm kinda weird about it. So far is the only album that I haven't listened as a whole, with LOVE JAM, and I've heard some people saying that it is worse compared to other albums... I don't know... the cover doesn't stands much for me, but I love "Bye Bye", "360" (pure love) and "Kurage, Nagareboshi". Is the rest that good? I'm really excited about seeing a more mature Ai and all, but I also love her silly songs... if it is as good as LOVE COOK I can be happy ever after :D Did you think I made a good choice buying it?

such an organized new thread. thanks sugarbasil! and again, happy b-day to ai! :love

Because the thread had yet to be closed. When a thread reaches 500 posts, you're supposed to start a new one and not continue to use the old one, but you can technically still post in it until a mod with powers to do so comes along and closes the thread. Then you can no longer post in it. :)

Great new thread, basil!! I LOVE the calendar cover! :O She looks so beautiful!
