So I was going by who else was there with her in November. It's also possible she took fans letters to her in November and wrote it about their descriptions of her and went from there for a love song. Much like I noticed Sending Mail described how she met fans that week and had a love song built around that. And for FIVE, Beloved used words from fans, because the translations I've seen have 2 small phrases I wrote to her by TA Email word for word and I'm guessing if the correct fans looked at the song carefully they'll notice the same.
Sending mail is much more likely to be about Mannie than fans. It's got all the hints about long distance, communicating with someone digitally etc... and I think we all have evidence for that in their Twitter love-love sessions.

Comparing November to Song 4 u is ridiculous too. There are too many lines in November that rely on Ayu's standard imagery. It has more comparisons with moments than Song 4 u. Is that song about Natsuki too? Was Nagase a cover up too?

Don't answer those last two questions.
