Aoi interview for MusiQ vol. 13 (2008)

http://gazette.vndv.com/=Credit. for the rest click the link! Here's Aoi's interview! (i'm soon going to start adding more vids and just ranting about the members ^^)

- Are you the type of person who has a lot of friends?

No, I don't think I am.

- Has it always been that way?

Not exactly. I think when I was in school everyone was friends with each other. So basically I just stayed with the crowd. There were three middle schools in my town, but the grade you were in didn't matter, and for the most part neither did the school you went to. Everyone had known each other since they were little, so we all called each other by our first names instead of last names.

- Do you keep in contact with your old school friends now?

There are some that I keep in touch with, but everyone left Mie and are all spread out, so I've lost track of where some live.

- What is your definition of a friend?

A friend is someone who you don't have to be careful around. I always watch and think about what I say, so if I could just be like, "You hungry? I'm gonna go get some food." kinda thing. I think a friend isn't someone you say "Let's be friends" to, but someone who you all of a sudden realize has always been there.

- So are the other members different from friends, then?

A little different. There are times when I'm careful around them, when things are hard to say, and times I wonder what they're thinking. And I don't go "Hey, hey!" kinda thing. I started thinking that maybe if you can talk to someone too easily about anything, it might start affecting our work....Also, I'm too embarrassed to talk with them about a lot of things.

- Then, do you have any friends living close by?

I don't think there's anyone living in Tokyo that I can say is a true friend.

- Isn't that lonely?

It is lonely. But I don't leave my house that often, either. And I can't go out to eat alone. Even during tours I just go to the convenience store....I meet up with my friends whenever I go back to Mie, because when I go back there I want to go out to a bunch of different places. I don't like crowds, and since I am from the country it's hard to get used to Tokyo.

Theme Interview: Love
- What are you like when you're in love?

I'm always careful laugh

- I think that men and women are careful about different things, so what are you careful about?

Everything laugh

- So, are you really kind?

I just get tired. I really don't like doing anything. I love just lazing around the most.

- So do you like girls who aren't that careful?

No? Because I'm careful around everyone. Though I don't know how it would be after being together for 10 or 20 years.

- Are you careful about saying personal things like, "You don't look so well"?

Ahh, I would say that. So much that it would get annoying laugh

- Would you like it if a girl payed a lot of attention to you?

Not really. I would want her to hold back on the "Ne, ne!" sort of thing laugh. In a way I would want a kind of distance, I wouldn't want her to always be concerned about me. Like, to live using her own strength laugh.

- So an independent girl, then?

Yes. That would be the most comfortable. So not someone who doesn't have a job laugh.

- Or a part-time job?

I would want her to have a job four days a week laugh. Since there'd be a lot of times when I'm not there, being together all the time would get tiring. I think someone who is independent, would give me space and have her own opinions about things would be perfect.

- Then, even if she was really strong-willed?

That's perfectly OK. Though always wanting to fight would get annoying laugh.

- So someone who works a lot?

Well, if it was six days a week that would be hard. Wouldn't it be lonely to never be able to see each other?

- laugh You're difficult, huh?

I'm waiting for that person laugh
