PS you seem to not be understanding the point of the thread. It's to bring attention to things that non-native Japanese speakers would have a hard time getting. Subtext and insinuations, deliberate choices of words that go beyond the basic "meaning" on the surface level. Not just puns. So stop being antagonistic and let us educate one another plz.

So I was kinda wondering if anyone who knows japanese noticed certain idioms/phrases/puns/wordplay that might be interesting to note in Ayu's songs, that we might lose when the lyrics are translated to english.
I think I was answering to the thread, considering he/she (sorry^^') asked for puns, wordplays too Stop being so sensitve, it's not like a kitten is going to die just cuz I said most of her lyrics don't use clever wordplays besides the idioms...
