Okay I listened to the album, the Nonfiction remix slaps and I love the interludes and VIBEES. That one's going to be a concert track for sure. Listening in order to the album, it feels like a NEXT LEVEL throwback to have Just the way you are at the end, kind of like Curtain Call.

It does feel weird having 23rd Monster on an album dropping a few weeks before her 25th anni (plus Haru yo, koi and Ohia no ki) but I was thinking about how ayu earlier in her career protested against A BEST and re-recorded songs to give value to the compilation. Maybe she still feels like that, reducing the exclusivity of tracks by putting them on additional releases?

Another couple of things I remembered from the stream were when someone was spamming "YOUは何しに日本へ?" (Why did you come to Japan?) which is the title of a TV Show. Ayu actually read this one out loud and was going "....uuh, I am Japanese? What is this?" and the staff were laughing at her.

When she was asked to release ayu-mi-x 8 she didn't even know we had an ayu-mi-x 7 and asked if it had come out. I don't think the staff knew what number they're up to, either.

Unfortunately I couldn't watch, is anybody with this problem too? :\
When it started the stream didn't go live so I had to force close and reopen the app to see her, YT does seem difficult lately...
