I agree totally!
I think the key to understanging Ayu is to understand her spirit and character by reading her interviews and lyrics, by listening to her speeches and observing the
way she speaks, and her
body language as well.
Of course, knowledge of the Japanese language would help a lot, but it's not
absolutely necessary, I think. I say this because many of her fans are non-Japanese speakers, so it is possible to be a big fan of hers without knowing much Japanese, as long as she
moves our hearts to love her.
I think what we really need is more fans, who are
fluent in both Japanese and English, to sacrifice a little time and effort to translate into English, directly from the Japanese, more articles about Ayu, and then post them at AHSforum. Translations of her talk shows, i.e. Hey!x3, Music Station, AyuReady, etc., would be helpful too.
