(3/11- Saitama Super Arena - First Day)
ayu: Again, today is Arena Tour's first day! It really doesn't seem like it.
Yo-chan: Today is the first day! Those in the audience who watched the last Arena Tour DVD should remember the concert had a "I want to ask Hamasaki Ayumi a question" session.
ayu: Right.
Yo-chan: But this was in the middle of the tour, so it come about with ease.
ayu: Yes.
Yo-chan: Actually, the first day always has nothing.
ayu: Right.
Yo-chan: So, talking to you all is simply frustrating, because we really don't have anything to talk about. In fact, the band and dancers, including ayu, are all so tense.
ayu: After I sing the first song, generally everyone claps. In my heart, I'm thinking what the next song is. What is the next song? It's UNITE! This happens often.
Yo-chan: Ayu is also usually one step ahead of the dancers. This also happens often.
Quote:
(3/12- Saitama Super Arena - 2nd Day)
Yo-chan: Everybody happy? The concert is here! Everyday we appear to put on a different show.
ayu: A little different everytime.
Yo-chan: Am I in a segment? A segment?
ayu: Segment?
Yo-chan: A segment?
ayu: Segment?
Yo-chan: A feature is rather big. It's rare, but I'll do one here.
ayu: What did you just blurt out about a segment?
Yo-chan: Yes. You really don't know Hamasaki Ayumi. Everytime there is a little bit of ayu that explodes, you can be sure that a large firefly will emerge.
ayu: Yo-chan, just a moment ago, what were you like? Right, right. Just like that.
Yo-chan: You really are a bully.
(New segment- You really don't know Hamasaki Ayumi!)
Quote:
(3/18- Nagano Big Hat - 1st day)
ayu: I haven't sung here in 2 years. I haven't seen everybody in such a long time.
Yo-chan: Those in the audience who watched the last Arena Tour DVD know that a lot of different concerts were all put on one DVD.
ayu: It really is amazing.
Yo-chan: I guess everybody should know the progress of a concert, how it starts. It's "I Want to Ask Hamasaki Ayumi a Question" time.
ayu: Great.
Yo-chan: Thank you.
ayu: It's very interesting.
Yo-chan: Question! The sound effect makes everybody happy! This question comes from a 21-year-old male: if you had a time machine, and you could travel back in time and meet yourself, what would you say? Just to note, Hamasaki Ayumi has not seen these questions. One comment is good.
ayu: If I could, I would say the future isn't bad.
Yo-chan: Question! This question is pretty good. It comes from a 27-year-old male: from the past to now, has it been a long journey?
ayu: When I think about the past it is cloudy, so I prefer to look towards the future.
Yo-chan: Look towards the future.
ayu: Question! 27-year-old female from Tokyo.
Yo-chan: This is unexpected.
ayu: May I ask, Yo-chan, has it been a long journey for you?
Yo-chan: You can say it was a blink.
ayu: Overall, how long?
Yo-chan: Can you say? More or less, 23-24 years. It's about this long.
ayu: Really not the same. Not noticeable.
Yo-chan: Where? Where? I can't go back. I can't go back! Everyone calm down, calm down.
Quote:
(3/19- Nagano Big Hat - 2nd day)
Yo-chan: Question! After singing, do you go sightseeing?
ayu: I went to the temple.
Yo-chan: The temple?
Audience: (Name of temple. Does anyone know?)
ayu: Correct. I went to (that temple).
Yo-chan: (That temple)
ayu: Yep. I went there.
Yo-chan: Really? We secretly organized for a hidden camera. Now, let's have a look, everyone- Hamasaki Ayumi at the temple!
ayu: Is it the photographer's one?
Yo-chan: Not that one. (Picture shown) It's the white hat one.
ayu: Of course. I wore that one out. This picture wasn't taken by the photographer, there should be another one. There was a person who helped me and later I wanted to thank them, because they knew a lot of customs of the temple. He was orginally from there and was simply a driver. Have you ever felt so dazzled?
Yo-chan: You must not know why this shot doesn't have the driver?
ayu: No idea.
Yo-chan: Because the person who took this picture was him. Question! A Nagano speciality, have you ever eaten soy sauce with bee larva and locust? Do you know of these foods?
ayu: I saw them yesterday.
Yo-chan: Really?
ayu: Locust.
Yo-chan: Did you eat it?
ayu: No. In fact, I'm afraid to eat it.
Yo-chan: I figured you were too scared. Didn't even try a little bit?
ayu: (Some kind of wheat food?) was good, wasn't it?
Yo-chan: Yes. Yes, at the time. Yesterday you had the (wheat thing)?
ayu: I ate that.
Yo-chan: Let's have a look at Hamasaki Ayumi eating this! (picture shown)
ayu: There's no need to show it! This is too cruel. In fact, it's really shameful.
Yo-chan: It's a little like uncle*.
ayu: This is most certainly uncle.
Yo-chan: If you take the menu away and just look at ayu in this moment, then it would be this situation: isn't it like she is a shop clerk? A shop clerk in a store, in his hand he has a camera.
ayu: What?
Yo-chan: Under my leadership, please be careful.
ayu: I'm careful.
Yo-chan: My informer is always next to you.
Note: I don't know what the food it, thus "wheat thing/some kind of wheat food" has been subsituted. Anyone know?
* "Uncle" is a term to call an older man. I'm not sure how to translate this correctly.

(3/25- Shizuoka Ecopa Arena - 1st day)
ayu: How is everybody in Shizuoka?
Yo-chan: Good. We can begin. From all corners of the country, here is "Ask Hamasaki Ayumi a Question!" Question!
ayu: Question:
Yo-chan: It's very hip, so have you played Tekken?
ayu: Very hip?
Yo-chan: It's very hip, so have you played Tekken?
ayu: Tekken?
Yo-chan: Yes.
ayu: Tekken like this?
Yo-chan: Yes, that Tekken. Now, let's ask, what kind of food is it?
ayu: Hip Tekken? What kind of food is it?
Audience: Hamburger!
ayu: Hamburger? Hamburger?
Yo-chan: Right answer. You completely don't understand, right?
ayu: Absolutely not understand.
Yo-chan: You also don't understand why it's hip and why it's Tekken? I can see that you might understand hamburger.
ayu: Right, right. I don't understand all of it.
Yo-chan: There was a rare chance, so we went there and took 3 pictures. Let's have everybody have a look. It's this one. Thanks all around to the busy members of the Hip Tekken Burger.
ayu: Is it a famous place?
Yo-chan: Yes, very famous.
ayu: Does it have a lot of chain shops?
Yo-chan: There's not a large number. On a sidenote, a worker told me they'll be building more soon. We can go then.

(3/26- Shizuoka Ecopa Arena - 2nd day)
Yo-chan: Question! This question is from a man.
ayu: Thank you.
Yo-chan: 38-years-old. Ah, it's not just one person.
ayu: So, many people have asked this question?
Yo-chan: Yes. Please, how are you doing with today's pollen at Ecopa?
ayu: Today's conditions are miserable.
Yo-chan: Can I ask a quick question? How many people have pollen allergies?
ayu: The numbers aren't small.
Yo-chan: Yeah.
ayu: I have a suggestion. I wish they could make a subheading saying, "Fir Trees Gathering."
Yo-chan: Ecopa Arena- parenthesis: Fir Trees Gather Here.
ayu: That way it's possible to tell everyone there are fir trees here. This will be a very good deed. I will know to wear a mask and goggles.
Yo-chan: Wait a minute. Can I ask what pollen goggles look like?
ayu: It's a type of glasses. The sides and top don't have gaps. Mine are very tight to my face. There's no way for anything to pass. When I take them off, there are all these little holes.
Yo-chan: Is it like little pores?
ayu: Correct, correct. Someone says that there is a lot of pollen here so I wore them, and then they wanted to know if they could take a picture of me with my goggles.
Yo-chan: Ah.
ayu: It's best not to let you all see.
Yo-chan: It's better to stop talking now. We can secretly organize and take a shot.
ayu: I'll have to be careful.

(4/1- Marine Messe Fukuoka - 1st day)
ayu: I've come, Fukuoka!
Yo-chan: Question! This question is from a young lady. When you're by yourself at home and there's a cockroach, what do you do?
ayu: I put up a white flag.
Yo-chan: You're so scared of cockroaches?
ayu: Actually, recently I encountered one.
Yo-chan: What happened?
ayu: Imagine there's a table here. Suddenly I see one unexpectedly. A lot of people saw this. Then there was a short moment, about 0.2 seconds. I immediately jumped on the table.
Yo-chan: Oh, so you jumped.
ayu: I did and it didn't move. I also couldn't move.
Yo-chan: I guess it also had the same idea.
ayu: I thought if I yelled really loud it would move, so I screamed loudly. Waaaaa~
Yo-chan: What's the result?
ayu: [a swishing/scurrying sound effect]
Yo-chan: It moved.
ayu: It moved.
Yo-chan: This is different that a cockroach runs at a woman's scream.
ayu: The outcome at the end was that my dog put the cockroach into its mouth and ran over to me. I yelled, "Don't come near me!"
Yo-chan: Question! I have pollen allergies every season. I've tried all sorts of tonics, but nothing works. Can I ask, ayu, what do you do for your allergies?
ayu: When I'm truly miserable, I don't travel.
Yo-chan: At your last performance in Shizuoka, it was bad.
ayu: In Shizuoka, I couldn't really do anything.
Yo-chan: I heard that your last trip was the worst.
ayu: Correct, my last trip.
Yo-chan: No wonder.
ayu: What?
Yo-chan: Last time in Shizuoka, I saw a very suspicious person.
ayu: Suspicious person?
Yo-chan: Yes. I didn't know who they were. Not to worry. I have a picture of this person. Let's have a look.
ayu: Splendid! You do things so skillfully!
Yo-chan: Thank you for the praise.
ayu: Master, I really admire you!
Yo-chan: There, there.
ayu: It's this person. (Picture caption: Pollen protected ayu) So, I am this person. Yesterday, this was exactly how I passed the time.
Yo-chan: Defending against thick pollen, so you couldn't go anywhere, right?
ayu: I asked people who came to help me.
Quote:
(4/2- Marine Messe Fukuoka - 2nd day)
Yo-chan: Question! This person's question: I really want to see ayu during the night in Fukuoka! Here's the way, there's an opportunity now, because I have a picture of ayu....
ayu: What picture?
Yo-chan: Let's have everyone have a look.
ayu: What picture?
Yo-chan: There's nothing to be ashamed of in the secret organization. You went to eat ramen, right?
ayu: I did. I did go.
Yo-chan: In addition, you went to eat at a road side food stand. You didn't see at this road side food stand that there was a suspicious man wearing sunglasses? Come! Let's have a look at Hamasaki Ayumi eating ramen.
(Fukuoka Night - ramen shop)
Yo-chan: This photo was shot very quickly. There was no way to do so slowly, and we could only take these shots. This shot clearly shows the moment. Above your hand is this redish substance.
ayu: Yes. It's red ginger.
Yo-chan: Red ginger. Do you like red ginger?
ayu: I like it.
Yo-chan: We've enlarged this picture slightly. Please note the food's color. The first picture. The next picture- you added a lot of red ginger. The next picture- adding more. The final picture- the food's color has completely changed. You added so much red ginger the food's color changed.
ayu: Doesn't everybody think it's kind of cute? It's pink.
Yo-chan: Let's look. This is the regular food. This is the regular food's color. In the end, it's pink. Pink. You must really like red ginger.
ayu: That's why I add so much.
Yo-chan: Do we need to ask everyone?
ayu: I've had people tell me, it's not the normal amount.
NOTE: Thanks to truehappiness for identifying the food.

(4/8- Sapporo, Markomanai Ice Arena - 1st day)
Yo-chan: Let's get to work! Ask Hamasaki Ayumi a Question time! This time there was an unexpected title. Do you see?
ayu: Really? I don't notice anything different. well, looking now, it's like a pornographic hotel sign. Is that what you're talking about?
Yo-chan: Not that. It's this- the design was changed to attract people.
ayu: How? Well, I'll just accept it.
Yo-chan: Right, right. Question! This is from a 27-year-old Tokyo woman, Ms. Hamasaki Ayumi.
ayu: Me? Me?
Yo-chan: I found something when visiting the North Sea. Let me ask a North Sea resident, who would like this? Here's a picture, let's have a look.
(Meat flavored caramel)
ayu: Yes. I had a bite and didn't like it. Its taste is very strong.
Yo-chan: Let's give some to the dancers.
ayu: Okay, let's give some to the dancers. I have some.
Dancer: You have some?
ayu: Here. Take some. Have you had it before? Chisa, your expression is very ugly.
Yo-chan: Kayano-chi really looks like you're not taking this seriously. You're afraid to eat it.
ayu: Is there a toasted burnt taste?
Yo-chan: Also, there's an unfamiliar taste that's a really strong aftertaste.
ayu: Very proud people. In short, very proud people.
Yo-chan: Are you all alright? You can still dance? Sing to Hamasaki Ayumi time! 1 2 go!
(Today is Hamasaki Ayumi's 8th anniversary)
Yo-chan: It's been 8 years! Here's an especially big cake. ayu, it's the 8th anniversary, congratuations!
ayu: Thank you.
Yo-chan: Who has a camera? Let's all take a picture together.
ayu: Sure.
Yo-chan: But let's not just take it of you, let's include the audience. Everybody go over there. Everybody we're going to take a picture.
ayu: Good. 3 2 1 Yaaa~
Yo-chan: How does 8 years feel?
ayu: It is frightening, I jumped a little.
Yo-chan: We prepared for this, and included the audience.
ayu: I hope in the future I can still be with everyone like this, happily. Now I am very happy, I don't want it to pass. In the future, I also hope to count on many fingers.
Yo-chan: 8 years.
Audience: Congratuations!
ayu: Thank you, everybody!
NOTE: Thanks to truehappiness, again, for identifying the food.

Yo-chan: Question! This is from a 12-year-old ayu.
ayu: Great. Thank you.
Yo-chan: I have the same name as ayu. If I become a singer, what name could I use?
ayu: This question is really fun.
Yo-chan: It's rather great.
ayu: It's great. The 2nd generation ayu is coming.
Yo-chan: The 2nd generation. If that doesn't work, there's always number 3. Continuous fame.
ayu: Very meaningful.
Yo-chan: They also say, after the 2nd and 3rd generations, there will be a male.
ayu: Really? Definitely.
Yo-chan: Everyone please give lots of support. Question! ayu, have you ever gotten so dead drunk that you forgot the whole experience?
ayu: Of course I have.
Yo-chan: But, this question isn't over. It continues to say, people born in Fukuoka can drink really well, don't they get drunk?
ayu: Of course they get drunk.
Yo-chan: Drink until they're dead drunk?
ayu: Yes. There's a bit of a chilly dislike about this matter.
Yo-chan: ayu, you drank yesterday, right?
ayu: Yesterday... yes. I drank [I think she says "Tandakatan." It's some kind of alcohol.]
Yo-chan: Tandakatan?
ayu: Tandakatan. Everytime I say this name, my mind overflows. Sorry, I've said some impolite things.
Yo-chan: Wait a moment, ayu, are you drunk now?
ayu: No!

(4/13- Osaka-Jo Hall - 1st day)
Yo-chan: Let's get to work! Ask Hamasaki Ayumi a question time! There's a new sign. Looking at the design it's very special to Osaka. Yellow and black, just like tiger stripes.
ayu: This is how it turned out.
Yo-chan: Osaka's special sign is like this. Now, tracking a Hamasaki Ayumi! Ms. Hamasaki Ayumi!
ayu: Yes.
Yo-chan: You were in Osaka yesterday, right?
ayu: Yes. I arrived yesterday evening.
Yo-chan: Yesterday you did arrive in Osaka. May I ask who did you come with?
ayu: What?
Yo-chan: Who did you come with?
ayu: With who?
Yo-chan: I saw you with a man. You came together. Furthermore, I have a picture.
ayu: Who is it? Who?
Yo-chan: You're nervous, right? It's a rare shot, ayu and a man together. Let's look. May I ask who he is? (picture shown) May I ask who he is?
ayu: It's too funny!
Yo-chan: Who is this person?
ayu: It's... it's my boyfriend.
Yo-chan: What?
ayu: My boyfriend.
Yo-chan: It's your boyfriend? Such a honest, reliable reply. It was well guarded, but look at his pace. I feel he's going so fast he's going to pass ayu.
ayu: You all are really good at taking funny pictures!

(4/15- Osaka-Jo Hall - 2nd day)
Yo-chan: Question! This is from a 29-year old Hama-chan.
ayu: Good. Thank you.
Yo-chan: Right now, I'm eating roasted meat, would you like some?
ayu: Where do that question come from?
Yo-chan: From a roasted meat shop.
ayu: You used a cellphone?
Yo-chan: Correct.
ayu: I see. You want to go?
Yo-chan: Do you need to go? You really like roasted meat, right?
ayu: I like it.
Yo-chan: Suddenly, tracking a Hamasaki Ayumi!
ayu: Again?
Yo-chan: On the day before yesterday, you went to the roasted meat shop?
ayu: Yes.
Yo-chan: I once again planted an agent to go. One way is to say roasted meat, there's also tenderloin meat and streaky pork. Good. Now, let's look at the real face of Hamasaki Ayumi. Let me ask, are you a vegatable bug? ayu, you didn't eat meat at this time, right?
ayu: Also, this was the second plate.
Yo-chan: No way. Really? My agent took 20 pictures. In each one it can be clearly seen, it gets less and less.
ayu: The vegatable leaves?
Yo-chan: Yes. The leaves get less and less. In the end, the vegatable bug changed. It changed to a butterfly. Question! Do you like Osaka's accent?
ayu: Osaka's accent.
Yo-chan: Correct, Osaka's accent.
ayu: I like it. The dancers use it often.
Yo-chan: Correct. Question! Do you know what ichibiri means?
ayu: ichibiri? What situation do you use it?
Yo-chan: I hear ayu is a real ichibiri. Did I say it right? Look, everyone says it's right. I'm very happy.
ayu: May I ask, am I very ichibiri? Am I usually ichibi? In the end, what is it?
Yo-chan: Are you usually ichibiru? This is the truth. I think you're almost not ichibiru.
ayu: I completely don't understand.
Yo-chan: Truthfully, it should be that I'm more ichibiri.
ayu: What? Are you pointing out that you're a bigger person?
Yo-chan: Hey!
ayu: Not correct?
Yo-chan: I'll announce the correct answer. You can say it's someone who causes heads to turn. Question! There's another test! Do you know what irachi means?
ayu: irachi? irachi?
Yo-chan: It should be similar. Irachi.
ayu: Yo-chan, are you very irachi.
Yo-chan: I am not irachi at all. It's said like this, if the band could come, for example, compared to me coming. Eguchi can change to irachi.
ayu: I get it. Every kind. No, sorry. Didn't mean to say that. Sorry. At first, it's not. What is it? Eguchi? Is it comparing to something earlier? Is that what it means?
Yo-chan: You're so impatient.
ayu: Correct. Impatient. It's right? I answered correctly?
(irachi=impatient)
Yo-chan: I'll give everyone an introduction. This is Eguchi. Eguchi is in the band. Tonight you can also see him at the night club.

(4/16- Osaka-Jo Hall - 3rd day)
Yo-chan: Question! A great number asked, during the concert when you want to sneeze, what do you do?
ayu: I think this isn't my will to control.
Yo-chan: Right. When you want to sneeze you can't stop it.
ayu: I simply can't stop it.
Yo-chan: I see. Do you know how to stop a sneeze?
ayu: I don't know.
Yo-chan: I hear there's a way to stop a sneeze when you're going to sneeze.
ayu: Really?
Yo-chan: Really. So, next time you need to sneeze when you're singing, just do this.
ayu: When I need to sneeze, I do this.
Yo-chan: Why do you open your eyes so wide?
ayu: Yes.
Yo-chan: Are your eyes not big enough now?
ayu: Because then your face is using pressure, so you want your face to do something else to prevent sneezing.
Yo-chan: After that, how does it stop?
ayu: I can't say.
Yo-chan: It just stops it? Let's begin. It's very difficult, look for the difference between these two Hamasaki Ayumi pictures! Thank you! You went to the roasted meat shop, correct?
ayu: Correct. I went twice.
Yo-chan: You went twice. The first time you went. I have a picture.
ayu: Are you going to show this picture?
Yo-chan: Yes, yesterday, I got this picture.
ayu: But the second time I went to the roasted meat shop, you shouldn't have gotten pictures.
Yo-chan: I have many pictures, because there is the secret organization. I examined these pictures, and the result was an incident I found. It's a matter of the heart of Hamasaki Ayumi, so can you tell the difference between them?
ayu: Difference?
Yo-chan: Yes, I'll give 5 seconds. Look for the difference in these Hamasaki Ayumi pictures!
ayu: What? Too fast! Too fast!
Yo-chan: Did you see the difference?
ayu: I saw a little difference in the hand.
Yo-chan: There's no difference in the hand. Let's look for the answer. It's that you're very focused on something. Let's look, this is the answer. Do you see now? What's the reason for this girl to be so focused on this?
ayu: Why would you pay attention to such a thing?
Yo-chan: The color changed.
ayu: Who would look there? can I see it again?
Yo-chan: Sure. You see? The color increased.
ayu: It's too difficult to notice.
Yo-chan: Correct, correct. So, I said it was difficult. Okay, let's move on.

(4/22- National Yoyogi Stadium - 1st day)
Yo-chan: Question! This is from an 18-year-old female.
ayu: Great. Thank you.
Yo-chan: I am a big fan of band member Miyazaki Yusuke. Please tell me what kind of girl Mr. Miyazaki likes.
ayu: It's like that.
Yo-chan: That's the asker.
ayu: You're a fan of Miyazaki? The girl in the stand area?
Yo-chan: There. Answer to her.
Miyazaki: Lazy people.
Yo-chan: It's like that, lazy people. I think, he means not too lazy. Now, a question to Tsuji.
ayu: This is different.
Yo-chan: Very different. Please, what is the meaning of manipulator?
ayu: The question is different also.
Tsuji: Simple put, it's a person who operates machines.
Yo-chan: Good. Very simple. A person who operateds machines. Understandable.
ayu: Tsuji starts every song, correct?
Yo-chan: Right.
ayu: So, when things aren't functioning properly, it's his fault.
Tsuji: Right. Sorry.
ayu: This situation happens frequently. We still haven't started? Still haven't started?
Yo-chan: Question! Ayu, in the middle of a concert, you always lean of Yo-chan, does Enrique not hang out with you?
Enrique: I do.
ayu: People have frequently asked me if Enrique and I are on bad terms.
Yo-chan: Because from an instrument view, if ayu went to Enrique's side, it wouldn't work. Enrique moves back and forth a lot when he plays.
ayu: It's like that. I have to do this to be by Enrique's side. I tried it once. Enrique's style is to move a lot, like this. That's why I don't go there.
Yo-chan: That's why you can't lean on him.
ayu: Right, right. Very complicated. Next time, I'll try again.
Yo-chan: Try it. This next question is for Shimizu Shunya.
ayu: Okay.
Yo-chan: Do you ever feel that you look like an uncle*?
ayu: Why are they asking Shimizu this?
Yo-chan: No idea.
ayu: In the end, it's this.
Yo-chan: I don't know.
Shimizu: No.
Yo-chan: Okay. No.
ayu: No.
ayu & Yo-chan: He said no.
Yo-chan: Question! This is from a 31-year-old male. Why do you call Eguchi "Erorin?"
Eguchi: This is because of Takako Uehara of SPEED. She said she wanted to help me think of a nickname. I said I didn't need one. She took two parts of my name and changed it, and called me Erorin. It's like that.
ayu: Like that.
Yo-chan: Right, right. It's still written Eguchi. The prouncation is different.
ayu: Erorin. That's how it came about.
Yo-chan: It's not related to Ero (porn) right? Now back stage everyone is laughing. Question! Ayu's stomach is very flat, your body is excellent. What kind of excercise do you do everyday? This question is for ayu.
ayu: To maintain my body?
Yo-chan: Yes. When you don't maintain your body what do you do?
ayu: I eat.
Yo-chan: What?
ayu: Before the show starts.
Yo-chan: The secret organization has a picture of Hamasaki Ayumi like this. Now, tracking Hamasaki Ayumi! Everyone, Hamasaki Ayumi before a show!
ayu: It's not the lobby right? Please not the lobby one!
Yo-chan: It's not the lobby one, nobody will see that one. Now, let's all have a look at Hamasaki Ayumi. What are you eating?
ayu: Nato.
Yo-chan: Nato. You can't really tell by looking.
ayu: I usually eat this. When I eat meals I really focus. Nato is really fine grains. Nato grains added on egg yolks and then put on top of rice is how I eat it.
Yo-chan: I like big grains. Not really. I like normal sized ones, compared to small ones.
ayu: Small grains?
Yo-chan: Yes. It's been grind.
ayu: Like that.
Yo-chan: When it's grind, it's smaller.
ayu: You like that kind.
Audience: You, ayu?
ayu: Me? I don't want to say I like certain grains. I'll say I like many types. You all have a favorite?
Yo-chan: Looks like nobody knows that ayu is talking about.
* "Uncle" is a term to call an older man. I'm not sure how to translate this correctly.

Yo-chan: Question! When on tour, going all over the country, do you ever forget where you are?
ayu: Yes.
Yo-chan: This matter happens often. I apologize for saying that.
ayu: Okay.
Yo-chan: It happens once in a while.
ayu: I see. Why do you say that?
Yo-chan: Do you know where you are today?
ayu: I know.
Yo-chan: No problems.
ayu: It's very recognizable here, because there's a lot of people in the audience.
Yo-chan: So, do you know where you were last time?
ayu: Osaka, I think.
Yo-chan: Too slow.
ayu: Too slow.
Yo-chan: But there are really times you don't know.
ayu: Go on.
Yo-chan: When eating you suddenly remember.
ayu: That's right.
Yo-chan: During those times you suddenly realize where you are. But it takes a while. I'm talking about myself as well. Question! I'm like this, do you speak baby talk to your dogs?
ayu: I do. Sleepy Marron. Like that.
Yo-chan: You speak like that to Marron.
ayu: Like, pu~ pu~ pu~. Something like that.
Yo-chan: I want to see you act like the dog's mom, so please bring Marron out.
ayu: Really? Really?
Yo-chan: How rare.
ayu: Marron, Marron, Marron's very cute. Marron wants to sleep? I'm like this.
Yo-chan: Really?
ayu: Yes. I speak like that.
Yo-chan: With the other dogs also?
ayu: Yes.
Yo-chan: You can't help it.
ayu: At home, I have lots of dogs, so I speak to them in all different manners like this.
Yo-chan: How fun. It's cute.
ayu: Yes.
Yo-chan: It might be interesting to see ayu at home.
ayu: I see.
Yo-chan: When you speak to your dogs, it's like baby talk.
ayu: I see, I'm like this.
Yo-chan: Really interesting.
ayu: Right now, all I see is Marron.

ayu: You're not bad. Yo-chan, you're not bad. Not too excited.
Yo-chan: You're talking about me?
ayu: Just now, you jumped very high.
Yo-chan: Let me tell you, when I first got to Hiroshima, I couldn't help but be really high*.
ayu: Why?
Yo-chan: This question is from a 23-year-old Pipi-chan. Sorry. I'm 40 this year. I want to ask, does the band follow the dancers?
ayu: This has meaning.
Yo-chan: When you all go karaoke, do you sing ayu's songs? One more, what does ayu sing? The audience looks like weird.
ayu: I doubt the band goes karaoke.
Yo-chan: Who in the band goes karaoke? Good. Nobody in the band goes. Do you go, ayu?
ayu: With the workers, sometimes in the evening. Everytime it's around Arena Tour time. We sing terribly from beginning to end.
Yo-chan: Why? Why?
ayu: To equal one day of singing well.
Yo-chan: So the second show is terrible.

Yo-chan: This question is hard. Why'd you want to become an adult?
ayu: I thought I'd never get bigger.
Yo-chan: Never get bigger. You could be in a big place. ayu, what was an adult to you? When I was young, I thought an adult was someone who could eat a whole hamburger.
ayu: That's filling. Also....
Yo-chan: Did you know now I can eat two? Now! Tracking Hamasaki Ayumi! You probably don't remember, let's have a look.
ayu: What?

ayu: There's no age limit.
Yo-chan: A person who likes dancing is good enough.
ayu: Right. You need that.
Yo-chan: It's a rare chance. I want to ask the dancers their age.
ayu: Sounds good.
Yo-chan: Because you can't tell with your dancers.
ayu: You're saying their actual age?
Yo-chan: That one.
ayu: Not when they started dancing?
Yo-chan: No. I want to know their ages now.
ayu: There'll be a lot.

Yo-chan: You chose the most peaceful one.
ayu: She has a strong woman flavor.
Yo-chan: A strong woman flavor.
ayu: If I were a man, I would like Midoring. A head of black hair, a six pack. You don't think you'd be infatuated?
Yo-chan: It's not that I've never spoken with her. Now I don't have a 6-pack. Now I have a round stomach. Question! For Peco and Yoko, what are your interest?
ayu: Separately answer?
Yo-chan: Answer separately.
Peco: I like singing and dancing. Originally my interest was I was young, I wanted to start learning martial arts. Tae Kwon Do. (Peco's interest: Tae Kwon Do)
Yo-chan: Tae Kwon Do? It's not the same as karate, right?
Peco: Right. There's more in Tae Kwon Do.
ayu: Ah. It's this.
Peco: The movements aren't the same like this. So no one can speak up on me to attack.
Yoko: I love to eat, so my interest is eating everywhere I go. (Princess's interest: Eating everywhere) I really like eating sweets.
ayu: Right. I'm the same. She always has chocolates around.
Yo-chan: I see. You like eating?
Yoko: Yes.
Yo-chan: Your interest is eating. Very good. Eating everywhere.

ayu: What?
Yo-chan: Yesterday, the concert started a little late, right?

ayu: Because it's CG? They mean they wanted the bike to be real?
Yo-chan: But what did you use as the bike?
ayu: That is...
Yo-chan: I think we've already spoken on the subject today.

Yo-chan: On to the topic- today's picture ayu totally agrees to show everybody.
ayu: Totally.
Yo-chan: This location was in our last trip at Osaka. We went to Osaka-Jo Hall. After the concert, you went to take a bubble bath, right? Also, this was in Osaka-Jo Hall's bathroom.
ayu: This bathroom was really strange. Simply put, it was really strange. I say this on behalf of everybody too. You'll understand. First, it had two shower heads. However. However.. The bathtub was, please look at the picture. Really huge.
(Osaka-Jo Hall's Bathtub. Simply put: Really huge.)
Can you all see how big it is? There are 2 shower heads. Not just that. Looking from another angle, really deep. It's possible to put a lot of people in. So deep. We wanted to see how many people we could fit. Please look. There are 18 people.
(18 person bathtub)
Who can tell me the reason? Nobody seems to be able to explain this mystery. Also, this is the door. Let's say behind me is the bathroom. I'm inside. The door's in front of me. The other side of the door is a staff person. Behind the staff person is Osaka-Jo's hallway. I said I'm going to take a bath. I open the door. The staff person said, I'll lock the door. Good. Thinking about it, it's not right. Why is the lock on that side of the door? Why?
Yo-chan: Really strange.
ayu: Do you know why it's so weird? There's no way to describe my feeling.
Yo-chan: You said it.
ayu: Really strange, right?
Yo-chan: Why is it like this?
ayu: This bathroom is really weird.
Yo-chan: Next time you go there, everyone should go see.

Yo-chan: You should go ask Osaka-Jo Hall's manager.

ayu: I also want to know.
Yo-chan: I'll say it simply. At the start of the tour, there was a lot of oridinary view of Hamasaki Ayumi. I wanted to capture these moments, so I started getting pictures.
ayu: In this tour, about how many people?
Yo-chan: I don't want ayu to know. There's always about 20 people around you all the time.
ayu: There's that many? So that's how it is. Well, tracking Nomura Yoshio! I'm very sorry. I discovered.
Yo-chan: What?
ayu: Nomura works by himself to take pictures. Please look! (Nomura taking a picture of ayu) He looks like this when taking pictures. Zoom in. Look! (Taking an absolutely beautiful shot of the moment) I think I took a better picture than you. Mine is clearer. Thank you everyone!
