Oh hey! Christina you're back!
I'm about to acquire an idol video through yahoo auctions, I got it for 3500yen. There's still another one on there for 3000yen. There was one that was the alternate cover, but it ended early and I friggin missed it. Lame! Haven't seen one since. Actually, I ran into two old magazines that featured her in random bookshops. One of em I got for 1500yen (1995) (punks actually realized it was Ayu and upped the price...) and the other for 400. The 400 one was issued post-debut (1999 I think) but has all idol pics. lol it was kind of funny, I'm in this little bookshop (the little ones invariably have a lot of gravure/nudity/porn), and I turn one way and there's a face staring back at me that was remarkably familiar...
Oh and here's another story. I was in Asakusa subway station and I look up...and I'm like...this isn't 1995...why is there a sumomomo subway poster looking at me...??? lol imma see if I can buy it, lest some fool just chucks it in the trash and replaces it with a shiny new koda poster...(that one was for you truehappiness haha). If it were to be there forever then I would leave it there for Ayu tourists to see but dude I doubt there's another one of these, and I'd hate to see it lost to the world forever

I'm still in Japan btw
