### **2021-01-01 -> The day has begun~!**

Happy New Year!

Last year, there were many moments where I could do nothing but swallow my tears, and things didn't go as I had hoped. There were many moments when I felt like my heart was about to break.

I think everyone must have felt the same way.

But, there's no rain that never stops.

We can only believe in tomorrow.

Even though I may feel hesitant about imagining the future and shrinking back,

I believe that all of you who are here with me will keep moving forward together with me.

I believe in a bright future.

Let's just believe.

In the great power of this world.

In the strength of humanity.

In the wisdom of humanity.

For that, there's no time to stay broken.

This year, for sure!

I want to hold online events on 5/8 too, haha!

Well, let me do it, please! (laughs)

This year will be filled with uncertainty,

But I think of all of you every single day.

If I am still allowed to sing,

I want to keep singing.

And if there are other things I am needed for,

I want to do them as much as possible.

Thanks to LiSA, anime songs have firmly established their position in Japan.

It's truly something to celebrate.

Thanks to her, I've been inspired to keep doing what I can.

I hope a bright future will come to all of you.

Please continue to support me this year as well!

### **2021-01-06 -> Beloved Ferret. Matsuko.**

It has been 7 years since Matsuko journeyed to heaven.

Somehow, every day, it feels like I'm still carrying Matsuko, and I can perfectly feel his warmth coming through.

I might not be able to have another pet in my life anymore.

But I feel the presence of Matsuko protecting me every day.

Pets are family, right?

From now on, Matsuko will always be my greatest partner.

To everyone who knows about Matsuko,

And to those who learned about Matsuko today,

Thank you for reading.

Matsuko is surely happy too!

I cried today too.

I'll do my best for Matsuko for another year!!

### **2021-05-08 -> Birthday party!! The livestream has ended!**

Today, it's my birthday!!

The livestream birthday event was so much fun!!

I'm truly grateful... tears are welling up 🥲

To everyone who came to watch, thank you very much!!

And such wonderful presents too!

I'll decorate them at the entrance when I get home!!

Thank you so much, I love you all.

We had lots of conversations and laughs!

I was able to sing songs...

And you know, after having so much fun, I have this overwhelming feeling of wanting to sing more and talk more.

Aah.

I don't want to go home...

I've realized once again that I can't live without singing.

And that all of you are my support.

It's amazing, isn't it?

In my life, so many people listened to my songs,

said they cried... said they love Faylan,

but I love all of you a hundred million times more!!

To prove that,

I'll keep singing in the future!

I asked my manager if we can do another livestream soon~ but well,

Today's MC was relaxed and casual, haha.

I kept messing up the lyrics due to nervousness,

but thank you for receiving the feelings filled with gratitude.

Bus tour!

Definitely!!!

Absolutely!!!

Look forward to it~!!!

And somehow, my manager seems to have taken videos and photos mistakenly (laughs)

Well then.

I'll raise a toast on my own when I get back tonight ❣️

No, I'll do it together with everyone in my heart!

Cheers! 🍻

Thank you very much~!

### **2021-12-31 -> Next year for sure!**

Everyone,

This year, once again, there were few opportunities to stand in front of you and sing directly as a singer, and it has been a frustrating year.

But enduring is currently the best we can do, and the joy of being released from that endurance will be great.

Now, I will patiently wait for that moment.

How was this year for all of you?

Next year for sure!

I want to do live performances,

meet everyone face to face, touch hands,

and sing.

That's my wish.

I'll pray for it at the New Year's shrine visit!

In sad times, we'll cry together,

and in happy times, we'll laugh together,

that kind of Fay Family, which feels like a family from the bottom of my heart,

I love you all so much!

I hope we can meet again soon...

Everyone!

Have a wonderful year ahead...!!!!!! Bursting with laughter.
